Refudiating Jon Caldara's lies about The Occupation

WetherDem noted Jon Caldara's lies passed on by The Denver Post in a recent article about Occupy Denver. Caldara gets off several obfuscations in just a few sentences that the Denver Post writer dutifully cut and pasted from Caldara's press release.

Probably the clearest explanation for the Occupy Wall Street protests has been coming from Jesse LaGreca who also blogs at Kos as Ministry of Truth. Here he is again explaining how the interests of Wall Street are systematically crushing the lives of Middle Class Americans -- the 99% of us who don't have Lobbyists or the cell phone numbers of our leaders -- and how big-time media types like Caldara, Mike Rosen, Rosen enlisting a dick army, and reporters at The Post don't yet have a clue (or pretend not to) about the reasons for the growing national protest:


Caldara has many platforms from which to spread his lies, either as the President of the Conservative-Corporate-funded Independence Institute (nice MySpace page, dude!), or as a long-time employee of the largest beneficiary of the FCC's generosity with our Publicly Owned airwaves via Clear Channel radio. The Post gave him a free pass once again, but we should all know that if Caldara's saying he's against it, then it's probably good for our Democracy and good for the 99% of us who don't fit into Caldara's world view. And, if the Post doesn't bother to check it, it's probably full of lies.

BONUS! Here's Jesse on This Week with Christiane Amanpour, where George Will worries about his Bourgeoisie pals, a perfectly Conservative thing to wet yourself over.
