Last weekend they came for Matt Taibbi.

Now it's time for Naomi Wolf.

Just because she was interviewed by Alex Jones?

Gee. Maybe she decided to grant an interview with weird Al because the corporate stooges at ABCNNBCBSFauxNoiseNutoworks have no room on the schedule for someone who tells the truth?

FWIW: The Feds and Big Banks worked together to spy and disrupt OWS.

Hmm... guess I'll try in this thread whatchamacallit Jan 2013 #41

I didn't think much of her when we were at UofT together... SidDithers Jan 2013 #82

Huh... whatchamacallit Jan 2013 #83

Those are the government documents which prove Wolf's point. Octafish Jan 2013 #9

except the documents don't support her conclusions Adenoid_Hynkel Jan 2013 #30

Did you go to the documents? Octafish Jan 2013 #32

'Secret collaboration'? When all was available via FOI requests? randome Jan 2013 #44

Hey, the statists don't like it. Puzzledtraveller Jan 2013 #12

They hate Alex Jones because he says 9-11 was an inside job. Octafish Jan 2013 #16

Oh, my friend... zappaman Jan 2013 #31

Show me where I ''defend Alex Jones'', zappaman. Octafish Jan 2013 #36

What's your opinion of Alex Jones, my friend? zappaman Jan 2013 #37

I don't have one, zappaman. Octafish Jan 2013 #39

Really? zappaman Jan 2013 #43

Right. H2O Man Jan 2013 #19

So...people should shut up and just believe what we're told, right? randome Jan 2013 #24

A pitiful response. H2O Man Jan 2013 #38

Exactly! HangOnKids Jan 2013 #47

if we are drawing conclutions based on that criteria Bodhi BloodWave Jan 2013 #84

Then they came for Glenn Beck Adenoid_Hynkel Jan 2013 #55

Here's something for you, Adenoid_Hynkel: NAZIs were given safe haven in USA after World War II. Octafish Jan 2013 #63

Oh, fer fuck's sake Adenoid_Hynkel Jan 2013 #68

Instead of the insults, why not post something about what I wrote? Octafish Jan 2013 #72

because it's irrelevant to the discussion Adenoid_Hynkel Jan 2013 #74

So, you can smear me, but I can't post facts to make a contention. Octafish Jan 2013 #79

Smear you? Adenoid_Hynkel Jan 2013 #81

Good point. You are more like Glenn Beck than me. Octafish Jan 2013 #86

Can you point to a post where you were asked to "shut up"? zappaman Jan 2013 #87

Sorry Adeniod, Occupy is neither dead nor free from Federal-level monitoring. Here: Fire Walk With Me Jan 2013 #25

'Monitoring' versus 'coordinated raids'. You're confusing two different things. randome Jan 2013 #26

What is she doing with Alex Jones? Dawson Leery Jan 2013 #27

and Michael Savage Adenoid_Hynkel Jan 2013 #29

Yup. Joshua Holland exposed her pretty good... SidDithers Jan 2013 #33

Never Mind! HangOnKids Jan 2013 #75

I Served On A Jury For A Post Of Octa"s That Had Been Alerted On HangOnKids Jan 2013 #91

Wow, this looks like another coordinated effort to silence, or at least muffle, another strong voice MadHound Jan 2013 #45

No, her credibility is shot because of what she writes. randome Jan 2013 #46

Really? I find what she writes, MadHound Jan 2013 #54

That's Klein.. not Wolf.. the subject of this thread is Wolf OKNancy Jan 2013 #56

My bad, Wolf wrote The Beauty Myth, but not Shock Doctrine, you're right MadHound Jan 2013 #61

The Shock Doctrine is Naomi KLEIN Adenoid_Hynkel Jan 2013 #58

Please check the post above yours, MadHound Jan 2013 #62

No one disagrees there was cross-communication. randome Jan 2013 #60

Well, there are lots of things that FOI documents don't show, MadHound Jan 2013 #67

Trust no one. Including Wolf. randome Jan 2013 #85

Wolf praised Jones as "a brave truth teller" Adenoid_Hynkel Jan 2013 #57

Lots of people mouth polite nothings when they are being interviewed, MadHound Jan 2013 #69

big difference in being cordial with an opposing party you have to work with Adenoid_Hynkel Jan 2013 #73

Wow. woo me with science Jan 2013 #49

I certainly think the third way might be a better way, but I'm not a Wolfe hater, tho I do mother earth Jan 2013 #52

or maybe we just think our side should base arguments on facts, and believe credibility is important Adenoid_Hynkel Jan 2013 #65

Go post on Free Republic. That's a good place for the far right to post! grahamhgreen Jan 2013 #64

Wolf has more in common with Freepers than Mother Jones Adenoid_Hynkel Jan 2013 #78
