True, they do take stupidity to levels that perhaps exceed the normal socially accepted standards. But, they were already losers before this month and chances are that they will still be losers now that their rancid act has come to a conclusion. From Occupying Wall Street back to Occupying Mom's Basement.
But, indeed, the real morons this month are not the ones above. They are the people all around us. Your friends and your leaders. The folks who found absolutely nothing wrong with the despicable actions that these lowlifes carried on.
Hmmm, let's come up with a list of the Occupy dummies' greatest hits, shall we?
They trespassed and set up camps on private properties.
They caused small businesses in urban centers to go belly up or close altogether.
They shit on each other, literally and figuratively.
In New York, they scared and taunted small children on their way to elementary school.
In Oakland, they looted and they vandalized and they even murdered one poor schnook.
They singlehandedly brought back such popular diseases as lice, dysentery, and the ever popular syphillis.
They refused to share their own camp food with the homeless people that gravitated toward their encampments for shelter.
And they did all this without a really clear message or objective to the brouhaha. But, what can you say about dodos who get their opinions about life from "The Colbert Report?"
Oh, sure, they were all rebelling against those scum buckets on Wall Street. The evil rich. That crafty 1% that all seem to resemble mean Milburn Drysdale from "The Beverly Hillbillies." Gee, how can I sucker the Clampetts for even more money in my bank??
Well, after almost three months on their nonsense in the streets, what did these screwballs think was going to happen? Some banker that looked just like Jimmy Stewart was going to stand at the top of a skycraper and say, "Aw shucks, the people down below are right" and then proceed to send millions of dollar bills in their direction? Uh huh. This is life, which unfortunately is not a Frank Capra movie.
There was no end game or focus to the Occupy movements, which were doomed to end even without police intervention. Snow, wind, and overnight temps in the 20s will make any outdoor crowd scurry for a well-heated indoor radiator.
Still, my real morons in this whole scenario are the mental midgets who saw nothing wrong with any of this.
Take, for instance, New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg, who sports an IQ under 50 on his smartest days. He virtually gave the OccupyWallStreet clowns free rein of Zuccoti Park. He stopped short of giving them American Airlines Advantage Miles for their tenure there.
And there are the usual celebrity do-gooders who came out to give them in-person support. Liberal fruitcakes like Susan Sarandon and Pete Seeger who still think that Richard Nixon walks among us. Dummies like this are still longing for the day where you could peacefully roll around in a mud pond while listening to Led Zeppelin.
Naturally, you heard nothing but support from anybody in politics with a "D" after their name. President Obama praised them. Nancy Pelosi admired them. Vice President Joe Biden understood their pain. Somewhere in this world, there must be a medication that curbs the onslaught of such oral flatulence.
But, then again, in our crazy polarized society, these Occupy dimwits are not a nuisance to our leaders. They are their voting core. Their desired constituency. The folks that would pull the levers for them every single November regardless. I've always joked that, if Adolf Hitler somehow was on the Democratic line for some election, a liberal would rationalize a way to vote for him.
"Well, art school is hard."
"I can feel his pain. I got teased for my bad haircut in high school."
"He prompted mass genocide? Is their DNA evidence to prove that?"
It gets even crazier. I was astounded by the number of folks I call "friends" on Facebook who would post diatribes in support of the kooks camping out all over the country. These riots were tolerated as if they were simply tailgate parties for a Jets game. More and more, I would see intelligent folks, or so I thought, tell the Occupy gang "right on, we're behind you 100%."
Huh?
What am I missing here? Has it come to this? And am I badly in need of a Facebook friends purge?
Or do I accept the naked truth?
We are simply just one gas station closer to the end of the Decency Turnpike.
Dinner last night: Proscuitto, mozzarella, and peppers on sour dough panini.

Here in L.A., the Occupiers demanded that a dry cleaner clean their sleeping bags for free. There's also been a surge in shoplifting, or liberating, merchandise in local stores.
