    An Occupy Wall Street demonstrator smiles while holding a sign after being allowed back into  Zuccotti Park near Wall Street in New York November 15, 2011. A judge upheld New York City's legal justification for evicting Occupy Wall Street protesters from the park on Tuesday when police in riot gear broke up a two-month-old demonstration against economic inequality.

    Protesters were allowed back into lower Manhattan’s Zuccotti Park two by two Tuesday evening. They each could take only a small bag. No sleeping bags or tents are allowed.

    A state Supreme Court judge ruled earlier Tuesday the protesters didn’t have a First Amendment right to remain in the plaza. The site is open to the public but is privately owned.

    Mayor Michael Bloomberg says the park will stay open to all as long as the protesters abide by its rules.

    Protesters are dismayed by the ruling and worry what the future will hold for the anti-Wall Street movement.

    Herr Bloomberg is scared of them.

    Let them protest in City Hall Park, Gracie Mansion, and the Mayor’s East Side townhouse.

    Let the stenchbaggers stay – the longer they and their utter disgustingness are on full public display, the more that regular Americans (i.e., not them) will get nauseated by them. Of course, the Anointed One, the Fraud-in-Chief has expressed support for the foul smelling stenchbaggers, so this will only lead to more and more disgust with zero-bama.

    November 2012 cannot come fast enough: Vote for Anyone but Obama.
