Schmucks

Frank Miller, a famous comic book artist and writer, has a great rant on his website today on Occupy Wall Street.  Here is a sample:

The “Occupy” movement, whether displaying itself on Wall Street or in the streets of Oakland (which has, with unspeakable cowardice, embraced it) is anything but an exercise of our blessed First Amendment. “Occupy” is nothing but a pack of louts, thieves, and rapists, an unruly mob, fed by Woodstock-era nostalgia and putrid false righteousness. These clowns can do nothing but harm America. 

Miller joins the growing chorus of former leftists and closet conservatives who, more and more, have begun to openly deride many shibboleths of the Left.  Earlier this year, playwright and former leftist David Mamet published a book on his turn towards conservatism.  There is no doubt that this is very good for conservatism.
