Oh yeah, and they're both 1%ers. How funny is that. Naah, naah, told you so.

I can't wait to see the excuses you morons make for them.

Wait let me do the first one.

The guy said he is there for work. Used his own money. Went to protests when he could??? So what is there sum rule a protester can't stay at a hotel. I guess it ruins your idea that protesters are hippies. Go f$&& off I'm sick of this propaganda crap.

The last Finance Working Group update on the OWS site is Nov. 18, 2011. The total in the checking accounts was only $454,000.00

OWS needs more of your hard earned money to fund 5 star hotel rooms & trips to Egypt so please hit the donate button ASAP.

agree. so what if the guy is paying for it with business funds then so be it. but to be honest id like to see what a 700$ a night hotel looks like. if it were me i would go to a budgett in and rent a room for 29.99 a night. oh by the way that just goes to show another example of how corporations use money in the wrong way. dang i wonder if a small business was to that what would happen to the balance sheet.

[-] 1 points by RantCasey (782) from Saginaw, MI 12 years ago

There are no budget29.99 hotels in NYC. In fact from what I here 699 is a ghetto hotel in manhattan lol.

We were told the movement was ALL about wealth. Guess not.

Actually, this post is referring to Peter Dutros (not the Deloitte employee), the former tattoo artist from Brooklyn who now manages the funds from the OWS 500k non profit.

Yeah I will keep reading past the title. That kool aide I will always drink

Oh yeah it says by the ny posts own source he used his own money. Not OWS money quit being stupid. That paper rates right up there with the enquirer and star. But let's say he did use OWS money. He will get torn apart soon

Indeed, guy is in New York city for business according to the New York post, it's just that he also sometimes puts on jeans and tshirt and heads to the protests.

Please note: NOTHING will destroy the Occupy movement! No amount of police brutality, lies, falsehoods, propaganda, or pointing out things that some may think is wrong with OWS! Its not going away its only growing bigger! Get over it! Deal with it!

[-] 1 points by StevenRoyal (490) from Dania Beach, FL 12 years ago

Any proof that OWS money was used or he was just a wealth benefactor?

All hail the Reverand Sun Myung Moon

[-] 1 points by Skyeskye1 (49) 12 years ago

I believe our politicians are using and stealing our money and they're still not representing me. At least OWS people are braving the elements, police brutality etc. So therefore I will continue to donate what little I can before I EVER believe false news I mean Fox news!!! Go Occupy and God Bless you!

[-] 1 points by StopOWS (50) 12 years ago

So why aren't you protesting outside your local representatives office? That would make a hell of a lot more sense than the nonsense you're doing now and you'd get a lot more supporters, including moi.

Murdoch owns that rag so it has no credibility, unless you believe supermarket tabloids.

[-] 1 points by FamilyFoodGardens (240) 12 years ago

"Story in the NY Post " Probably not true then like most of the garbage in that rag.

[-] 1 points by toomuchmisunderstanding (17) 12 years ago

See, not all the protesters are "lice-infested hippies"". Some can afford the nice things (with their own money), but still believe in the cause. Only a Rupert Murdoch publication would imply they are liars. And only a hateful naysayer would immediately agree.

You should link the story. It's made clear that the person living in a high class hotel is there due to work and it's likely business expense or his own pocket. Not our own accounts. Sorry.

He's either on the payroll or brain dead. I'm opting for the latter.

[-] 1 points by Happierbanker (23) 12 years ago

The guy in the glasses is Peter Dutro, the "finance man" who lives in NYC. He as been on CNBC before talking about the donations. The other guy with the backpack was in town on business and wanted to join. Dutro is the key player on the finance group.

[-] 0 points by agnosticnixie (17) from Laval, QC 12 years ago

A protester who also seems to be staying in NYC for the business purposes of his employers. Apparently. I don't know the guy, the financial committee has rotating membership.

[-] 1 points by Happierbanker (23) 12 years ago

Peter Dutro? Hardly the first time we've seen him. C'mon !!
