Yeah, they are scared like the last time with Occupy Wall Street. That's why they propped up the Tea Party movement and hijacked it leading to where we are now.

The Tea Party Movement was propped up and hijacked before Occupy Wall Street ever started though. Hell the Tea Party had dominated the midterm elections before Occupy Wall Street started.
