Jayhawk fan nominates Bill Self to lead the Fed
Advertisement
Sometimes – well, often, really – the Internet gives us a chance to chuckle at things that are serious. In the case of the Occupy Wall Street movement, where clarity about pretty much anything is lacking, one man at an Occupy Denver rally knows what he stands for.
He is a Jayhawk.
From the good folks at Deadspin we bring you the rantings of a man who is crazy. Crazy for Kansas basketball. He even nominates Bill Self for chairman of the Federal Reserve. And how many championships has Missourah won? Anyway, it's good for a chuckle.
Update: The fan is apparently the father of a Kansas University graduate, who was moving into a new home in Denver, if this blog is to be believed. The father is a banker, the family thought it would be funny to take pictures of him in the middle of the protest.

Alex, this is just simply no good: also at the New York lovein, at least one of the droids carries a sign calling for "nationalize the Fed." apparently he doesn't realize that it is already nationalized!
LOLLOLOLOLOL! typical brainless fool at these protests.

Alex, this is right on dude!: Sometimes – well, often, really – the Internet gives us a chance to chuckle at things that are serious. In the case of the Occupy Wall Street movement, where clarity about pretty much anything is lacking, one man at an Occupy Denver rally knows what he stands for.
---clarity is lacking. however, the big money behind this nonspontaneous protest pushes for marxism or socialism. George Soros is one of the sources. last month the deeply questionable Van jones spoke indicating that it would happen. other of the Obamanoids did too. their video is recorded.
not spontaneous at all. maundering across dozens of topics.
