So trickle down, war mongering, anti (women, non white, immigrant, student, LGBT, etc, etc),pro corp, message not workin' so well for them?

I think it is important to note that conservative speakers ARE being invited. The conservative speakers are backing out after protests emerge. Weak, & worthless cowards.

I guess the conservative speakers do not think their message is worth the difficulty of speaking to those who disagree.

Personally I think they should have spoken. We should all see the dissent it creates.

Each speech would be a great opportunity for powerful, inspiring, images of protest.

Oh well,

Good post

Hence my congrats to OWS, I think OWS has had an impact in this area, and good for them/us

No doubt. OWS is responsible for countless progressive voices/groups speaking up again.

Those voices are still growing louder even as the oppositions voices run scared.

Protest, VOTE, Repeat!!

top schools are about elite connections

all of life is about connections, elite or otherwise, the actions we take are like gamma rays they never end just have increasingly smaller effects on increasing lager areas here's a blast from past and a nod to the latest of the billion dollar elites
