In the New York Times, a report that OWS has finally turned its fire on President Obama:

More than 100 Occupy Wall Street protesters marched to a Midtown hotel on Wednesday night to protest a fund-raising event for President Obama.
Escorted by police vehicles as they helped snarl traffic across the Times Square area, beginning at Bryant Park, the group settled in front of barricades on the southwest corner of 53rd Street and Seventh Avenue, in view of the Sheraton hotel at which Mr. Obama was expected to appear by 9 p.m.
Demonstrators held signs that leveled some of the Occupy protest’s most pointed criticism to date of the president. “Obama is a corporate puppet,” one said. “War crimes must be stopped, no matter who does them,” read another, beside head shots of President George W. Bush and President Obama.
One man, wearing a mask of the president’s face and holding a cigar, carried a sign that read, “I sold out!”
Ben Campbell, 28, one of the march’s organizers, said he hoped to prove to skeptics of the protests that the demonstrators were political critics of equal opportunity.

Thus far, the Occupy contingent has largely managed to steer clear of directly attacking the president. Why? It is arguable that the entire nature of the movement is the product of the Left’s being unfortunately trapped between needing to defend a president for whom they had great hopes, and the fact that they (still) don’t like the status quo much after he has been in office for three years (during two of which, it should be repeatedly noted, he had complete control of Congress). If there were a Republican in the White House, you can bet your bottom dollar that the tents would have been at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue from the start. But it’s more complicated when it’s your guy in the Oval Office, especially when he’s the biggest beneficiary of Wall Street money in American history.
