So this is where the money went Finance Committee?

Another troll:
The greatest fact these morons keep alluding to is everybody is an unemployed pot smoking hippy.
"Not everybody there is dirt poor" Hopefully the media instead of harping on somebody not wanting to stay in tents that has the personal funds to stay in a nice hotel does just that instead, the media attempts to make them look bad for choosing to do so.
Talk about hypocrites and the OP is no better, openly fabricating the subject line, lying openly. What a true piece of shit. Each of these two individuals used their own money.
The tattoo artist-turned-Occupy money man took the elevator up to the fifth-floor welcome desk, where a disc jockey spins tunes and guests enjoy a vista of the growing freedom tower.
He said he spent $500 of his own money to get the room because he wanted a good night’s rest ahead of the cause’s two-month ceremony the next day and raucous post-raid protests.
“I knew . . . there was a high probability of getting arrested,” he said. “I wanted a nice room. That’s OK. Not everybody there is dirt poor.”
He paid for the palace with his American Express card.
“It is an expensive hotel. Whatever,” he said.
And the other OWS protester “Tents are not for me,” he confessed, when confronted in the sleek black lobby of the Washington Street hotel where sources described him as a “repeat” guest.
Spitzer, 24, an associate at financial-services giant Deloitte, which netted $29 billion in revenue last year, admitted he joined the protest at Zuccotti Park several times.
“I’m staying here for work,” said Spitzer, dressed down in a company T-shirt and holding a backpack and his suitcase. “I do finance, but I support it still.”
Troll my ass. Nice use of the 1% spin. HA. Lol. Too funny.
I would rather not troll your ass.
I would hope that you would not, my wife would be rather unappreciative of such an advance.
Now that could be awkward.
Lol...I needed a good laugh in the midst of all our pissy anger.....
Glad to help :-)

"I did NOT sleep with that woman, Monica Lewinsky"
You people can really believe in your own crap, cant you?
When they spend their own money and have AMX cards and the OP has only a story he fabricated... The OP's word is shit and the article is the proof, I mean you folks will actually have to do more than simply "make accusations".
Of course this is an excerpt from the NY Times which tried to make it appears as if they did something wrong while reporting they paid their own freight while the OP just simply lied.
I haven't seen a single fact to back up any of the claims you folks continue to make. I see massive proof contradicted each accusation you folks make.
So do you think I am as stupid as you and believe what the Entertainment Media puts out or am I smarter because I don't take anything at face value and check the facts?
Every thieft covers their tracks. If I want to steal from a cash pot, I would pay with my card then steal from the cash pot to pay me back. Theft 101 says to cover your tracks.
I have more evidence that clearly proves you are an idiot shit than you have that either of these folks did anything wrong let alone stole anything.
Continue posting evidence of your "idiot shtiness" or you can post evidence that substantiates your claims.
I notice on nearly every post you use the term "idiot shit" You must have grown up being yelled at by your prostitute mother.
Is that the best you have?
I repeated what you use post after post,,, so, yes that is the best I have.
Corzine is not a corporation he is a person. I thought you allowed a person to contribute.
You should learn how our system works, what controls are in place and then apply the amendment I wrote to those controls to see the results if this amendment is passed.
Here's, Corzine will still be able to give all that money but the entities he gives that money to like PACs, won't be able to give it to the Candidate or support any legislation.
"idiot shit" So, Corzine and George Soros under your "idiot shit" plan can donate hundreds of millions to elect THEIR guy under your "idiot shit" plan? (Most other posts you use FUCK. I feel left out, "idiot shit"
http://www.nycga.net/groups/political-and-electoral-reform/docs/amendment-28-to-the-constitution-of-the-united-states-of-america
This is the actual text of the amendment.
“ARTICLE—
“SECTION 1. We the people do ordain and reestablish the rights protected by the Constitution of the United States to be the rights of natural persons.
“SECTION 2. The words people, person, or citizen as used in this Constitution do not include corporations, limited liability companies and other private entities established by the laws of any State, the United States, or any foreign state.
“SECTION 3. Such entities not identified as a “natural persons“ in SECTION 2. of this Amendment, shall be prohibited from making contributions or expenditures to, for or against, any candidate for public office or to, for or against, publicly elected official or to, for or against, any legislation before the Congress, the Senate or the people.
“SECTION 4. Nothing contained herein shall be construed to limit the people’s rights of freedom of speech, freedom of the press, free exercise of religion, freedom of association and all such other rights of the people, which rights are inalienable.”.
And in Section 4 you left out, "inalienable by our CREATOR"
I read your "idiot shit" cartoon. You are still allowing some rich idiot shit to win an election. I would guess in Section 2 you would NOT allow unions to contribute to some idiot shit person. You hate unions?
I posted the URL for the FEC contributions limit but you get to go find it :-)
The ONLY reason I keep replying to your "idiot shit" comments is because, THANKS TO YOU, every time you post it brings this post about the $700 hotel room back to the TOP of the page. Good job idiot shit. Please reply soon.
That is a good thing. It is clear that these two paid for their own rooms out of their own pocket and that these clowns will go to any length, including making things up.
It is good to continue to show everybody the facts.
Why would I want to go find your "idiot shit" FEC web page? I thought YOU "idiot shit" amendment solved the "idiot shit" problems with contributions to elect the guy you have enough money to elect. You mentioned corporations and LLC's but you failed to mention your favorite liberal "idiot shit" unions. You dont have an 'idiot shit" answer so you try to get me to go to a FEDERAL idiot shit website.
Unions would be barred as well and the limits on donations IS $2,500.00 to any single candidate form an individuals and pretty much everything else would be banned.
Pretty cool how that works huh.
And EVERY democrat said Clinton did NOT have sex with Monica. You know the story? There is a photo posted on the NY Post that shows him leaving the hotel.
Keep on posting irrelevant crap, proving kid, that you are an idiot shit instead of engaging in actual discussion.
You sound like the attorney for a BIG corporation. Protect the chairman caught stealing money.
No idiot shit, I drafted an amendment to the Constitution to stop all this;
You can read the entire bill here:

So, GE Chairman Jeffrey Immelt, a good friend of Obama contributes under his name to obama. Immelt gathers all of his friends inside GE and those wanting to do business with GE and gets THEM to contribute to Obama under their name. And the Chairman of countless others do the same making contributions of millions of dollars. Basiclly this is how it has been done for ever. What did your amendment do?
Your ignorance explains your stupid answers. Currently the amount an individual can contribute is what again? How many CEO's would have to contribute to amount to a million dollars?
You go find the number because I have posted the campaign limit more than once and actually have the URL bookmarked. Educate yourself.
They can contribute around a million and do. This is a small list of personal contributions from only TWO corporation stock holders. Top Contributors, 1990-2012
Contributor and Amount Christie, Todd J. & Theresa M. $266,750 Cook, Daniel W. III & Gail B. $515,340 Corzine, Jon S. & JoAnne D. $916,800 Fife, Eugene V. & Luann L $187,370 Freidman, Stephen & Barbara B. $192,300 Menschel, Robert B. & Joyce F. $450,950 Appelman, Barry $195,000 Boggs, Timothy A. $292,520 Bushkin, Arthur A. & Kathryn A. $66,400 Daly, Robert A & Carole Bayer Sager $222,838 Flom, Jason R. & Wendy K. $140,904
Individuals are allowed to contribute $2,500.00 per candidate and $46,200.00 in total to multiple Candidates. Removing National Party Committee, State, District & Local Party Committee, PAC (multicandidate), PAC (not multicandidate) and Authorized Campaign Committees because they are "corporations, limited liability companies and other private entities established by the laws of any State, the United States, or any foreign state". We would be left with a $2,500.00 limit per candidate and if somebody wanted to give to multiple candidates.

Sorry, had to add this, folks could give money to these secondary groups but those groups couldn't give any money to the candidate or run ads for them or against their opponents.
After we get some sane legislators in office we can draft and pass some sane laws.
Corzine, above, gave $916,800, so sounds like you have no idea what you are talking about. Your stupid new constitution just went up like your comic book on fire.
Yeah, this would stop that.
If I were in New York I'd go beat them up.
They'd be like "if you do I'll call the police"
And I'd be like Hahahahahah!
"He said he spent $500 of his own money to get the room because he wanted a good night’s rest ahead of the cause’s two-month ceremony the next day and raucous post-raid protests." What the fuck is soo bad about what this guy who stayed at a hotel for location purposes before a very large strike, payed for the hotel in his own money and he sheltered post raid refugees. So what if he is not a tent person that is besides the point. He has a right to get a room in a hotel and protest at the same time there is no rule that says that OWS protesters shall not stay at hotels.
It's in the 7 commandments.
4) No animal shall sleep in a bed.
Oops, my mistake, was thinking about Animal Farm.

This is insane.
No matter what system is implemented, crooks will always always rise to the top. It's no different with OWS.
A 99% crook is equal a 1% crook.
[Removed]
There must be a public investigation on why they did this. There are no rules in OWS just like Wall Street,they are the SAME. SHAME ON YOU. SHAME ON YOU. SHAME ON YOU.
Theft 101?: Use credit card as paper trail to prove YOU paid for it. Then take cash from organization to pay bill.
Would a 99% or 1% likely stay in a $750 a night hotel room?
YOU got pepper sprayed so HE could stay in a $700 a night hotel. Great job idiots.
Where does most employee cash theft occur? Petty Cash. Who holds OWS petty cash? Same guy in picture sleeping at a luxury hotel when he lives nearby. Does that mean he is taking from the till? No, but sure looks suspicious.
