Counterpoint: he may be part of the 53%, but he is also part of the 99%. Not that I disagree with him about some of his other sentiments.
I gather that this whole "99%" movement is made up of the same people who show up at all kinds of left-wing protests: hippies, anarchists, feminists, unionists, Palestinian-ists, Marxists and all kinds of other less-identifiable -ists. I think it's pretty telling that they're not protesting the President, who has cuddled up to corporate interests as much as his Republican predecessor, or any member of Congress.
Isn't that the real enemy? The politicians who let big money influence policy? The big bad corporations are only looking after their own interests, after all - what else do you expect them to do?
