May 1st. Exactly one third of the year is behind us. And here in New Jersey we've finally earned enough money to pay our Federal, State, and Local tax bills for the year.
Only Connecticut is worse; they have to wait until May 5th before the government leviathan is satiated.
We're #2! We're #2!
Ironically, today is also International Moochers Marching Day, otherwise known as the Occupy Mom's Basement Day of Protest for "the 99%." And in certain lefty quarters it's Let's Celebrate Communist Murderers Day too.
Ayup, the slackers are marching for more!, more!, more! on the same day I can finally relax and stop paying for their X-Box subscriptions. Some people are never satisfied.
And just to put us in the mood, last night Obama's commie-wannabe compadres got off to a bang-up start in San Francisco, smashing store windows, torching cars, and making a general nuisance of themselves. Because they're just like the Tea Party. And all they want is Justice, man.
Closer to home the Occupods promised to disrupt the morning commute into New York City with "massive" protests. But they're a little unclear on the concept of "working hours" because as of 10 AM they still hadn't roused themselves out of bed; 1010 WINS is reporting only sporadic protest activity.
There were no major disruptions as about 100 protesters gathered in Bryant Park Tuesday morning. The group then dispersed to picket in front of banks and other businesses throughout Manhattan.
Organizers had called for protesters to block bridges or tunnels into the city to disrupt commuters as well as other "creative disruptions against the corporations who rule our city," according to an Occupy website, but so far, no incidents of blocking traffic have been reported.
To be fair, it is raining, so perhaps they've rescheduled for tomorrow.
