sorry, this is the article. It should lead you to the live stream. Its wane tv ft. wayne, in. gotta go.

so far lots of agreement

sorry about that. I had to go watch it. I think Occupy won the debate if I had to say, but the teapers did not get stupid either. For the most part they all agreed that our government is too much into controlling us, that tarp was a bad idea, and that the banks screwed us.

I don't think they will have another, as there was a lot of agreement, and both sides joining is the governments and big corps nightmare.

because I think it did show that we do agree on a lot of things like the patriot act and stuff in regards to the governments overreach of our rights. A lot of agrrement on banksters.

They still think corporations as persons is free speech by way of cash.

Don't screw with the rich because I might be rich someday. Also, there have been surveys made that show the majority of the tea party are just the same well of angry white republicans that put on stupid hats after Bush was out.

There's a lot of common ground between Occupy and Tea Party.

Both of them together could be a lot stronger than either can be apart.
