Why is it

They called the protests in Egypt, Libya and Syria the "Arab spring". Now they are calling the protests in Russia the "Russian spring" but, the protests in the USA, shouldn't they be called the "USA Spring" or "American spring"? Doesn't the media realize we want democracy here too?

I always thought "Arab Spring" was a new brand of bath soap, like "Irish Spring" but much stronger for those smelly arabs?

An 'Arab Spring' will inevitably lead to an 'Al-Qaeda Winter'.

if the stupid OWS protestors were smart enough to start in the spring with their camp-out.. then it could have been called blank blank spring..

but as it stands now the frozen basement dwellers will just be chillin.. and returning to the basements in bewilderment as to why their spring protests failed..
