"There are countless horrible things happening all over the world and horrible people prospering, but we must never allow them to disturb our equanimity or deflect us from our sacred duty to sabotage and annoy them whenever possible." -Auberon Waugh

Occupuncture
The Occupy movement is trying to go global, but its efforts in Sydney, Australia seem to have fizzled.
I suspect it will "go global" in the sense that you'll see similar groups in the 35-40 most developed countries, but they'll 'fail' because they have too many idiot demands and too many people with actual jobs won't support them.
Of course politicians of the Left will try to co-opt them, but I don't expect that to work, either.
WV: "lutoring" I suppose that is teaching someone to play or build a lute.
I'd say their "unexpected support" from unions, Dimmocrats, the MSM, and celebrities will dry up rather quickly, and the occupidiots will return to their parent's warm bedrooms for the winter.
I really think Soros is behind the way this thing spreads. Otherwise its just too well-coordinated in too short a time.
The logic would be that it is an outflanking movement to influence American politics, a sort of smelly global 'we are the yoof of the world' response to the Tea Party and Obama's falling domestic support. Trying to shame Americans back to him.
What I can't figure is how Soros feels justified - why he does this, beyond his habitual advocacy of what he perversely calls 'Free Society' - a globalised leftist uberstate/ neo-Soviet.

I think with the first hard frost, these bozos are going to start vacating their Obamavilles.

Bruce: I suspect you're right (and I don't really understand it, either),
