Just six of them: OccuFlop protest at CPAC Chicago
The Occupy movement continues its death spiral. At CPAC Chicago yesterday, the group could manage to attract only six protesters.
Inside the Donald E. Stephens Convention Center, two thousand patriots were sharpening their mental saws.
As for the flag being held by the man in the Jay Cutler Chicago Bears jersey, it’s not Old Glory, but instead it’s an Adbusters mock-up.
I took this photograph around noon. A couple of hours later the occupiers were gone.

One nice thing about that POLYESTER flag- it’d make a great flaming necktie.

But, but, but we are so much bigger, better, more glorious, more organized and have a real message that the Tea Party doesn’t have.

I’ll bet their parents hadn’t even realized they snuck out until they noticed the foodtray they set by the basement steps hasn’t been touched.
Once the parents got to tweeting each other, it was just a matter of time before 1 of them had to set out in the mini van.

Only six protesters ? What happened, did somebody spread a rumor that Bill Ayres was throwing a housewarming party? Anderw did say that his party’s were “the bomb”

I guess that’s enough to totally occupy a Chevy Volt.

Most of them were my age. What happened to the young twinkles?

I once lived in a very heavily Democrat district in NY and the local paper was a typical Lib Tool.
The topper was one weekend they had a page one story about a Sharpton rally consisting of 25 people. The same day I had a barbeque at my house for 50 people.
Shouldn’t I have gotten twice the press coverage?

Maybe you should have used a bullhorn, Irony.

Sharpton served surf and turf, Irony. A freeloading reporter has to have some standards, you know!

Aftershock from Wisconsin. Poor Bastards were so distraught, they medicated themselves into a coma. They’ll be there in force, next week.

The occupiers that did show up waved around their signs and ran off to their Boxed Lunches.
What came first the ’6′ on his jersey, or the five other demeroids?

Meanwhile, while these dwindling dipshits have been defecating on the street, the Tea Party is getting folks elected to national and local offices. Let them Occupy the street. We’ll be the ones Occupying State Houses, Congress and the White House.

So the guy with corporate logo US flag (I’m guessing he’s protesting corporations) is wearing a Bears jersey created by…wait for it!…the Reebok Corporation.
And these occupissts wonder why the intelligent people laugh at them.

I wonder how much trash and human waste 6 occu-losers can manage to generate in an afternoon. I’m guessing maybe 3 1/2 tons.

OK, so there’s only 6 protesters but, they’re all high ranking now because of their loyalty.

@ TooMuchTime – So the guy with corporate logo US flag (I’m guessing he’s protesting corporations) is wearing a Bears jersey created by…wait for it!…the Reebok Corporation.
I’m guessing his heart’s not really in it and heard there would be liberal chicks there.
Did he ever waste an afternoon.
