Occupy Des Moines is an in tents group of people

I drove past the park where the Occupy Des Moines folks are camping yesterday.

Looks like they're having a good time, but I can't say that they appeared to be making much of a political point. But then, I guess the point of the Occupy movement is at least partially that it really isn't sure what its point is, isn't it?

Other than not liking banks and "the one percent," that is.

The movement is as American as apple pie, though. I see Stewart Square as simply our local, contemporary Hooverville.

Or Obamaville, if you prefer.
