Dana Loesch Plays the Nazi Card to Attack #OWS - Calls Them 'The Epitome of Greed'
During some of their post debate coverage following the circular firing squad that was the second CNN Republican debate in Las Vegas, "tea partier" and resident right-wing flame thrower Dana Loesch decided to play the Nazi card to try to smear the protesters out there in the Occupy Wall Street movement.
After apparently being very upset that the #OWS protesters were compared to the AstroTurf "tea party" movement that both CNN and Fox have done their best to promote, Loesch said this:
COOPER: Dana, I heard you scoffing when it was compared to the Tea Party.
LOESCH: There's a couple of things. There's a couple of things that I have to say. I disagree with the notion that this is anti- greed. Any movement that protests for a living wage, regardless of whether or not you're employed -- employed, is the epitome of greed, No. 1.
No. 2, there's no -- there's no responsibility given to Washington at all whatsoever. This current administration is propped up by Wall Street. This is the Wall Street president. This president has received more from Goldman Sachs and the very entities that these protesters are out there protesting than any other president.
Three, I think the grassroots element in this has been hijacked already. One of the things that the Tea Party -- the Tea Party had to deal with two fronts. The Tea Party fought against Republican establishment. I was very involved in New York 23. Newt Gingrich and I went round and round over Dede Scozzafava. I was -- the establishment was not of me; still is not a fan of me.
And we also had to fight against progressives and progressive agenda, where you have the Occupy Wall Street and they have the endorsement of the President. They have the blessing of Nancy Pelosi. They're also endorsed by the Nazi Party of the United States. They're also endorsed by Communists. These are things that we did not see with the tea party movement.
[Scarce Edit: OWS protesters "are the epitome of greed"? WTF CNN? Why give this idiot a platform? ]
It appears that this is one of the prevailing themes over at Fox, where Loesch belongs, although she's been doing her best to make sure CNN is trying to compete with their audience. And while I can't find much to disagree with when it comes to my frustration with the Obama administration and their relationship to Wall Street that she was railing about in the beginning of the clip, I do take great issue with her portrayal of the protesters which is right in line with Fox as Media Matters has documented -- The Latest Desperate Smear Of Occupy Wall Street Protests: The Nazis Like Them
What Loesch is doing here is nothing more than divide and conquer politics and doing her best to keep anyone who may not agree on a whole lot of issues from coming together and marginalizing those out there protesting as some fringe group.
As Media Matters noted in their post: Reminder: If a Nazi says something nice about you, that doesn't make you a Nazi.
Michael Moore and Al Sharpton managed to give us some perspective from opposite-land on Loesch's views where she was determined to pull the working class apart, and a sharp contrast with Michael Moore talking about how wedge issues that normally divide us have been thrown aside from his experience spending some time with the OWS protesters in New York.
Video and transcript of Moore's interview below the fold.
Solidarity Pizza Fund:
SHARPTON: And many in the 99 percent, I think that`s the challenge, that`s why I and others were down and say, no, this movement is important, is that you can`t allow them to play the 99 percent against each other because we`re not each other`s problem.
MOORE: Right.
SHARPTON: And I think that that`s the crabs in the barrel thing, would rather than the crabs uniting having a coalition lifting the led off the barrel.
MOORE: Right.
SHARPTON: They had them fighting and climbing over each other.
MOORE: Right. I was out at Times Square on Saturday night.
SHARPTON: Right.
MOORE: That 99 percent that you just talk about, right? The one that they like to divide and have fight against each other. They`re all kinds of people in Times Square Saturday night. I`m sure there are people there that I disagree with, pro-choice, you know, they are not. I`m sure there are people there that don`t want any gun control laws, I do. I`m sure there are people there that don`t approve of gay marriage. I do. But nobody was talking about that. Those issues that they have used, those wedge issues that they have used to divide the working people of this country, they don`t -- they are not being discussed at Occupy Wall Street. No one cares about that anymore. We care about the real basic thing that is hurting and affecting everyone and that is the one percent are running the show, and this is a democracy.
SHARPTON: That`s right.
MOORE: And in a democracy, one percent doesn`t run the show.
SHARPTON: That`s exactly right.
MOORE: A hundred percent runs the show.
SHARPTON: And that is the fight is all about.
MOORE: That is correct.
..have to realize the only thing Republicans hate worst than watching people exercise their 1st Amendment rights is watching Democrats express their approval of people exercising their 1st Amendment rights.
And for this woman to claim there was no Nazi influence over the Tea Party is like saying there is no Rupert Murdock influence over Fixed News.
Lastly, between corporate activist shill Erin Burnett & this right wing militant wastrel Dana Loesch, CNN can now brag they poison the country with as much ignorance & hate as their big brother role model, Fixed News.
When Fascism comes to America, it will be wrapped in excess body fat & carrying a misspelled sign.
I'm just glad i quit watching CNN a few months ago. I made the right decision. Once a network goes far enough down that road, they don't come back. It's pretty much a one way road. Buh-bye CNN. I won't say fare well.

It's a platform for Reich wing propaganda , these scum bags can lie their asses off , say what ever they want and go completely unchallenged . I stopped watching CNN a long time ago . Why do they even bother to hire / pay hosts ? Just have the camera guy hand the guest a piece of paper with the the topic written on it , give em the microphone and let em do their thing .
"The poor have sometimes objected to being governed badly; the rich have always objected to being governed at all."
I'd venture to say a majority - or at least a plurality - of OWS protestors actually voted for, even worked on the campaign for, Obama .. and are PISSED OFF AT HIM TOO.
Mr. "Change You Can Believe In" turned into "Anything The Establishments Wants" the day he took office.
The problem OWS sees is that the Banks OWN Washington - there IS no separation between them.
To be pissed at one is to be pissed at the other.

I was appalled by Anderson Cooper's and the rest of the post-debate panel lack of follow up to challenge her comments. She cites no facts, just throws out hurtful words. I was so disgusted that I posted a comment on CNN's 360 website. I changed channels after her comments, because of lack of integrity in the panel's make-up.
I also looked up Mrs. Loesh's journalism credentials on Wikipedia. She has right-wing Talk Radio in St. Louis and she works for Breibart's Big Journalism blog, not exactly news outlets of any ethical. She also never finished her journalism undergraduate degree program from Webster University in St. Louis, a private college which awards a degree to anybody that pays its tuition, and not exactly a first-rate institution of higher learning.
Her comments fit into Fox News, but not CNN.
Webster is a very good small college and they don't simply award degrees to anyone who pays tuition. If you have some proof for this allegation, I'd like to see it. I have several friends who attend Webster and they find it extremely challenging. But, you're right about Dana Loesch. She's an idiot. : )
This is the unassailable second front in the class warfare that Americans have been losing.
The same money that fuels the greed of Wall Street fuels Corporate News Zombies like Loesh and even Cooper.
As long as the mass visual media is controlled by corporate interests even a fair and trained reporter is hobbled.

"The poor have sometimes objected to being governed badly; the rich have always objected to being governed at all."
do you need to go on TV and call people names? Do you need a Masters or PhD in journalism? Can't remember. I love how CNN is now working to become Fox Jr. Not much as far as educating people on actual issues, not much on talking about issues outside the narrow range of opinion of the elites, but lots of elites who have no answers talking as if they do. Lots of name calling and drama. Isn't really informative or productive, but I'm sure it gets great ratings.
that is apparently all it's needed to make the grade as a "journalist."
They don't call it the "boob tube" for nothin'

In the new media, it's all just entertainment and how can I make a buck. Look at Cooper, years ago he was an up and coming reporter and now what is he ? And they complain about Obama using a teleprompter. The so-called media is just reading a script that is paid for by the 1 percent. Look at how so many news outlets are trying to bring down OWS where they fawned all over the fake teabaggers.
Voices at the Greece protest:
“We need the help of workers in Europe. The common people of Europe need to be conscious that they need to be with us. They also have problems like us. Even German workers have problems. The Greek people are not against the German workers. The German workers have had to suffer pay cuts over ten years. I believe the German workers are the first victims of these policies of Mrs. Merkel.
Ioanna, 27, said, “This demonstration is not only against the government, but against this whole international development. The European elite are using Greece as an experiment to see how far they can go with the attacks on the population.”
Konstantinos brought his own banner to the demonstration, reading: “Age 47, two years without a job… What options do I have? I can steal or commit suicide. Or I can fight for a job and my rights. That is what I am doing now.”
Vangelis , a 22-year-old student, said he was convinced the government will collapse soon. “But nobody knows what is coming after it. I try not looking to the future, because it is so black.”

Oh, those silly Fox robots - invoking their favorite name again - Nazi. I'm sure these people are very well versed in anything and everything Nazi, since they seem to know when to call the opposite side, Nazis. Come on, in today's world, Fox News Nazis would be welcome into the Teabagger/Repuke/Conservative party. Stop hiding and just calling names, own what you are - Nazis, apparently, since you compare so many to Nazis.
Of course, it may be that you're just plain stupid as it seems this is the first requirement for all applicants and if you're a Stepford female, then you've got to be 'HOT' and stupid to satisfy ole Rog's lustful side.

Nothing says greed like demanding a living wage.
There's a surefire way to end the OWS movement - give them all jobs that pay a living wage. Problem solved, everybody goes home. Yeah, the 1% will have to make due with a little less, but to the positive, they won't be hanging from a lamppost.
These assholes can't be THAT unaware of themselves....

Hey Dana, go fuck yourself. You're obsolete and we don't need you.

Vote GOP and move forward to the 18th Century.
If the anti-OWS, consrvatives, GOP, and TPers want to go down the road of say if Nazi support for something then I say let them. The law of unintended will play havoc with them. I wonder if Dana Loesch is aware that once in power the Nazi's supported the Big Industrialist (aka Business, or Capitalists) of Germany. So that would make Big Business pro Nazi. Nazi's supported the Army, so that would make the US Army pro Nazi. Nazi's supported Catholic Church, so the Catholic Church is pro Nazi. Need I go on with this farce?
I'd like to propose a corollary: If the Nazi's opposed or oppressed something that makes it anti-Nazi. Nazi outlawed all unions once in power, that would make unions Anti-Nazi wouldn't it?
so on this spectrum of greed that Dana brought up...
YOU know... the one where all those protesters screaming to be given ~$40,000/yr for free equal the ABSOLUTE APEX BOILED TO ITS ESSENCE LOOK IT UP IN WEBSTERS DEFINITION of the word "greed"
in that spectrum:
Where do you think Dana and her ilk would place people who inherit over 2 million dollars and demand that the government not touch a penny of it because its "THEIRS"
I think Faux and CNN Reslugs protest too much, which certainly tells me they are worried and are shitting in their pants about the 99% movement. Everybody also knows that Reslugs have always been the damned greediest and corrupt bastards on earth.
We have seen many epitomes in our days....but that statement is the epitome of something else...
Reslugs must get these dim-witted, ignorant whores right off the street, like Ann Coulter. They clean them up, brainwash them, give them minimum wage and they will do or say anything.
Wanting a stable life with no excess is greedy? Wanting to eat on a daily basis is greedy? Wanting to maybe, versus definitely, have to declare bankruptcy for health bills is greedy? Wanting a roof over your head is greedy?
No, Ms. Loesch.
OWS is not the "epitome of greed." You and your friend Gateway Pundit and the rest of you teabaggin' idiots are the "epitome of greed." You are the epitome of stupid. You are the epitome of spiteful hatemongering fascists who protect the very wealthy and corporations but look down on those much less fortunate.
You are a lying scumbag.
Stupid, stupid woman.
Well said.

Damn, I couldn't read all of Loesch's comments, I was too dazzled by the intensity of the projection.

As I said on my blog this morning, if teabaggers could open their eyes, they'd realize from whom the country actually needs taking back, and that by buying the disinformation from people like Loesch (as usual) they're seeing to it that it stays in the wrong hands.
...are joining the protest.
That may be the fear of the Right:

and the OWS protesters would open them just a little wider they'd realize what a completely meaningless phrase "taking back" is. Aren't the people everyone wants to take their country back from just other Americans? Isn't this why you have things called elections. I give the teabaggers considerable credit for one thing. They turned out to vote in 2010.

“Oliver [Twist] opened the door fearfully. Life had taught him that his daily diet was incomplete without some sort of physical torture. He still feared it. But when he looked outside he found no one there. At a little distance there was a charity boy greedily eating bread and cheese.”
The "epitome of greed" expresses by Dana Loesch is more like that of the charity boy eating bread and cheese in Oliver Twist, like the way thirsty people "inhale" water, or oppressed people consume justice--greedily, like fire.
Hey Dana. The Aryan Nation loves u on their 'tea party promo' video.
Your money is on the nightstand.........
I like how she said "I think the grassroots element in this has been hijacked already", but doesn't say how.
Ah, the old 'cause I said so' argument. Fantastic.
The teaparty was a brilliant PR operation on the part of Fox News. I remember them flogging the events non-stop. And let's not forget the gold sales tied in to Beck's show, and the travel services to Washington, D.C. they conveniently provided for his magical mystery tour which the rubes were happy to sink their teapartying retirement dollars into.
I must agree with one thing she said and that's the fact that Obama is indeed in the pocket of all those wall street crooks and that some of the rage of the OWS protesters should be directed towards Obama. We all knew we were going to get screwed when he made Timothy Geithner and Larry Summer members of his inner circle. The fact that he is a Democrat, has given him a free pass on a lot of things from the left even though he has proven himself no better then Bush in many ways. There are many analyst who have made a very telling argument that he is far more right leaning then the Republicans precious darling Ronald Reagan.
Warren Buffett, in a recent interview with CNBC, offers one of the best quotes about the debt ceiling: "I could end the deficit in 5 minutes," he told CNBC. "You just pass a law that says that anytime there is a deficit of more than 3% of GDP, all sitting members of Congress are ineligible for re-election.
The 26th amendment (granting the right to vote for 18 year-olds) took only 3 months & 8 days to be ratified! Why? Simple!
The people demanded it. That was in 1971 - before computers, e-mail, cellphones, etc.
Of the 27 amendments to the Constitution, seven (7) took one (1) year or less to become the law of the land - all because of public pressure.
Warren Buffet is asking each addressee to forward this email to a minimum of twenty people on their address list; in turn ask each of those to do likewise.
In three days, most people in The United States of America will have the message. This is one idea that really should be passed around.
**Congressional Reform Act of 2011* *
1. *No Tenure / No Pension. * A Congressman/woman collects a salary while in office and receives no pay when they're out of office.
2. *Congress (past, present & future) participates in Social Security. *All funds in the Congressional retirement fund move to the Social Security system immediately. All future funds flow into the Social Security system, and Congress participates with the American people. It may not be used for any other purpose.
3. *Congress can purchase their own retirement plan, just as all Americans do. *
4. *Congress will no longer vote themselves a pay raise.* Congressional pay will rise by the lower of CPI or 3%.
5. Congress loses their current health care system and participates in the same health care system as the American people.
6. *Congress must equally abide by all laws they impose on the American
people. *
7. *All contracts with past and present Congressmen/women are void **effective
1/1/12. *The American people did not make this contract with
Congressmen/women.
Congressmen/women made all these contracts for themselves. Serving in Congress is an honor, not a career. The Founding Fathers envisioned citizen legislators, so ours should serve their term(s), then go home and back to work.
If each person contacts a minimum of twenty people then it will only take
three days for most people (in the U.S.) to receive the message. Don't you think it's time?

not that "our" representatives are not responsible for selling out the citizenry, they are, let's just put some attention on the buyers.
Loesch is out of her mind. "You did not see these things with the Tea Party." She doesn't know what she's talking about. The Tea Party attracted (and thrived off of) the kind of anti-government insurgent militia groups that continue to be a terrorist threat in this country. They threatened to use their guns, they used expressions like "the tree of liberty needs to be watered with blood from time to time." So you did not "see these things" with the Tea Party? Which way were you looking?
Stupid fascist bitch doesn't even know the definitions of the words she uses.
Fascism is a term that defines "corporate control of the government by a few uber wealthy - the exact thing projectionist idiots like her and Jonah "I don't need no stinking dictionary" Goldberg just love.
These epeople by definition ARE fascists'. Everything about them is fascist. They act, behave, and employ the exact same tactics that the nazi's used.
The reason these idiots are even on t.v. spewing their bullshit, is because our government/corporate owned media is fascist too.
They certainly don't have anything new, relevant, or intelligent to say.
If I were a psychopath, I would join the republican party, and get in on the gravy train taking the Teabircher morons to the cleaners.

"regardless of whether or not you're employed"
Note how she slips this meme in there. Who in the OWS movement is saying they want a free lunch? Who is saying they want to be paid without working? Every single one of them I have seen asked, wants to work and be employed at a job that compensates them fairly. Unlike what is happening now.
As we all know, these folks project a bit, don't they?
Dana Loesch is stupid. She is as stupid and stupid in the same way as Michele Bachmann. If you listen to what she says she says stupid things that have no basis in fact or can be disputed with simple logic.
It amazes me that these kind of people get a platform. The same with Erick Erickson and that Breitfart idiot (amazingly all showcased on CNN). We are talking about stupid people here. Their audience are base people. People who cannot think critically.
These people cannot begin to comprehend the fact that the more people who are working, no matter how or who they work for, that it is a good thing. They cannot comprehend the fact that we have seen what their policies do to the economy. We saw it in 2008 and we know what led up to it. It is history. It happened. It is right there in front of us. Yet they are so base and intellectually retarded that they can't see it. They are stupid people and they should not be listened to for even one second.
selling bad investments to people and then making bets with other people that those same investments would tank the sorry losers who bought them is not greedy, but smart business.

one of the most arrogant talking head comments ive seen in a long long time. how much is Dana worth, BTW? bet Dana has never had to be concerned about a living wage in her life. if she had the tune would change pretty quick-smart.
that comment leaves me absolutely disgusted. in other words a movement that asks people be paid what they are worth is actually a bunch of pirates making out for whatever they can get. you cant get more bizzarro world than that.
