Paranoid Much? Ed Schultz Wants Obama 'Infiltrating' Wall Street Protests

By Jack Coleman | October 18, 2011 | 13:39

A  A

After all, who knows what these loose-cannon layabouts might do next.

Easily irritated radio host and aspiring MSNBC flamethrower Ed Schultz has become a huge fan of Occupy Wall Street, even while keeping his distance from the protesters after many of them jeered him as a "corporatist" during a broadcast of "The Ed Show" from lower Manhattan. (audio after page break)

But Schultz is apparently also wary enough of the Wall Street protesters that he sees some type of surveillance of them by the Obama administration may be necessary (audio) --

I find it hard to believe that the Obama team would not be infiltrating, I don't know if that's the right word or not, infiltrating  and finding out exactly who these folks are, whether they're going to tap into it or not. I mean, the crowd that I was in there, it was very clear to me, well, these are, (chuckles) you know, you're going to find a few stray cats out there but look, these are Obama supporters! OK? They are. And some of them are mad at the president for not doing enough, for not getting enough, but I think for the most part they're Obama supporters. And I think there's been some kind of a reluctance on the part of the media to say that!

Imagine the uproar if Limbaugh, Hannity, Boehner, Bachmann, etc., suggested anything resembling tea party infiltration of Occupy Wall Street.

Schultz states the obvious while flattering himself that he's sticking his neck out: the Wall Street protesters, he says, are mostly Obama supporters. Gee, ya think?

That being the case, why would it be necessary to infiltrate them? I'm sorry, could you speak a little louder, Col. Jessup ...

They flatter themselves as the "99 percent" getting screwed by the wealthiest one percent. It would be more accurate to say that 99 percent of this crowd was enamored of Obama back in 2008, before the belated shattering realization that he's not from Krypton.

the administration has already infiltrated. You must be a bigger moron than I had thought or is this more attempting to mislead people as to who is behind and supporting this?!

Maybe they could find some ex

Submitted by Carl Kolchak on Tue, 10/18/2011 - 3:04pm.

I just hope no ex Stasi agents want to infiltrate and act as agent provacatuers.

Here's a link about a protest in West Germany in which a left wing protestor was shot and killed. The left responded with violence against innocent people. From Stasis archives it turns out the person who shot and killed the protestor was a Stasi agent.

http://www.spiegel.de/international/germany/0,1518,626275,00.html

Here is another link with new information about Stasi Archives that updates the shooting event.

From the link below.

"Secondly, evidence has emerged to suggest that the Stasi may have played a larger role in the 1967 shooting of student Benno Ohnesorg than previously thought, an event which is widely credited as the catalyst for the radicalisation of the West German left. Karl-Heinz Kurras, the Berlin policeman who shot Ohnesorg had previously been ‘outed’ as a Stasi agent in 2009, a development which spawned a new investigation into Ohensorg’s death."

to see the before and after pictures of the "parks".

The grounds of the Capital in Wisconsin were left like a football field after a torrential rain during an NFC championship game.

And that is what Democrats are going to run on in 2012? That is their platform?

Is this one of those times when it must be so very hard to be a liberal democrat?

That an individual right exists requires that some policy positions be removed from the table of debate.

"Infiltrating" is the RIGHT word

Submitted by gopcongress on Tue, 10/18/2011 - 7:08pm.

"Infiltrating" is the RIGHT word when used in conjunction with these socialist yahoos. The Tea Party never needs to be "infiltrated" as it was a political movement that resulted in the most conservative vote in recent history, but if Obama wants to tie in with OWS, more power to him, whether he "infiltrates" it or just stands on top of a soap box proclaiming his alliance with them.
