Occupiers Beating Dead Horse and Only Hurting Working America | Godfather Politics

Occupiers Beating Dead Horse and Only Hurting Working America | Godfather Politics: It’s an old expression and probably many younger people may not understand it, but the Occupy movement is beating a dead horse and getting nowhere.

In the days before automobiles, horses were one of the main means of transportation. Traveling long distances took days and there were times when the rider would continue to beat his horse and push it beyond its limit until the horse would collapse from exhaustion and die. Frustrated, someone somewhere probably kept beating the horse expecting it to get up and keep running, but obviously, a dead horse won’t go any further and continued beating is fruitlessly and unproductively.

So it is with the Occupy movement. Their cause is like the horse pushed past its limits and now lays dead, rotting and stinking. In their blind ignorance, they fail see that their cause is over, no one really cares anymore and like the rotting corpse of the horse, it’s beginning to leave a stench in nostrils of most Americans.
