'Nothing Sort of Negative or Discrediting Has Happened'

I guess if you rely on the Associated Press you could pretend nothing negative has happened with the Obama protests. But how can anyone ignore this famous photo and claim nothing negative has happened?

Activists around the country said Saturday's protests energized their movement.

"It's an upward trajectory," said John St. Lawrence, a Florida real estate lawyer who took part in Saturday's Occupy Orlando protest, which drew more than 1,500 people. "It's catching people's imagination and also, knock on wood, nothing sort of negative or discrediting has happened."

I guess getting support from Nazis, Communists, psychotic mullahs and Hugo Chavez is a positive development.
