I get why the media continues to equate the Tea Party to OWS, because we are angry at the government and they are "angry" too, but what they fail to point out is the Tea Party IS THE PROBLEM.
They are and have been a corporate backed organization (Koch Brothers) that has their agenda aligned with corporate agenda, "small government" I.E. no regulation so corporations can run rampant with greed.
So why cant we distance ourselves as a true grass roots organization for the people by the people from the Tea Party which is a phony organization that is for the "People" by the corporation...

OWS is so great because by definition it cannot be co-opted (I sure as hell hope) by the 1%ers as the tea party was.

The Tea Party loves their country.

The Tea Party has a warped view of our country and they want "their country" run by the bible. But guess what? Its never gonna happen, you are the minority, we are the MAJORITY!
