If you ever needed proof that liberals are scum, this is it.


There’s no longer room at the inn at a Manhattan church that’s sheltering Occupy Wall Streeters after a holy vessel disappeared from the altar last week.


When the Rev. Bob Brashear prepared for Sunday services at West Park Presbyterian Church on West 86th Street, he noticed parts of the bronze baptismal font were gone.


In a fire-and-brimstone message to occupiers later that day, he thundered, “It was like pissing on the 99 percent.”


In Brooklyn, at another church housing OWS protesters, an occupier urinated on a cross, according to Rabbi Chaim Gruber, who has angrily abandoned the OWS movement.


In a letter last week to OWS obtained by The Post, the rabbi fumed, “The Park Slope church housing occupiers was desecrated when an occupier peed inside the building and the pee came into contact with a cross.”


At West Park, Rev. Brashear walked into the church for a morning service to find the 18-inch-diameter bronze basin and lid missing from the baptismal font’s 800-pound base. Holy water — straight from the River Jordan — had been poured from the missing basin insert into the base’s bowl.


The artifact vanished just three weeks after a $2,400 Apple MacBook vanished from Brashear’s office. He told the occupiers that even when the 100-year-old Upper West Side church extended help to addicts during the 1980s drug scourge, no visitors touched its $12,500 sacramental instrument.

I'm sure it was Obama himself that did it.


Am I doing this right?

Opinion = fact. Anecdote = proof. Political label more important than either of those.

The OWS people never should have so wantonly invited in homeless people to bolster their numbers. I'm not saying all homeless are bad people but many that become homeless do so because of very bad life choices such as drugs and petty crime. And frankly, the church people shouldn't be so naive as to not prepare themselves for this reality.

You can help people and not be stupid at the same time.

LOL .. NYPOST

Did they plant a guy pissing on a cross, then hack someone's cellphone to get a picture of it?

You got the story wrong. What was happening was that the OWS had some infrastructure, such as shelter and food for their people. So the cops in the local municipalities started shipping vagrants over to the OWS areas as an easy and cheap way to get rid of them. They were never "recruited." Instead, the OWS decided it was better (morally, politically, or both; I'm sure you have your opinion on this) to take them in than to turn them away, as they were the ultimate victims of the issues the OWS people were protesting.

I'm not quick to blame the homeless on this, as there's no evidence that it was them specifically. There's a few rotten apples in every movement. It could have been homeless, republican plants, or OWS "leadership" for all I know. All I do know is that it doesn't define the movement.

A priest and a rabbi walk into a bar; an OWS protester walks into a baton.

A weary OWS protester returns to college.


Roommate: “How are you?”


Protester: “Not so great. I have body lice, the flu, and a screaming case of gonorrhea.”


Roommate: “You caught the flu?”

What’s the difference between Rick Perry and the aimlessness of OWS?


Rick Perry is debatable.
