[OccupyCU] the enemy of my enemy is my ally

[Elizabeth Simpson]

A reminder that we often have more in common with folks of different political labes than we recognize:


"I think we're used to politics as usual. The politics as usual is 
that you manipulate the system to put certain people in positions of 
power. That's not the way it ought to be. The people should decide who 
is going to be speaking for them. Remember, this power that 
(politicians) have, they don't own it. It's only borrowed from the 
people who elect them. We forget that. But when you have people in back 
rooms who decide they are going to put in place who they want so that 
they can control them and they can control what happens in this country, that's wrong."
- state Sen. Kyle McCarter, 
R-Lebanon
