Unions Cutting off Noses To Spite Their Faces

Despite all our talk of CommieObamie being a socialist, it is a straight out fact that the far left in America are mad that Obama didn't turn us into the U.S.S.R. lite the second he took office. His pace at selling us out and turning us into a social democratic system ala France isn't happening fast enough for them. For unions the fact that Obama hasn't summarily castrated the business community and forced card check down everyone's throats yet is a downer. And with that in mind, unions have announced that they are taking their ire out on those mythical "Blue Dog" Democrats that are trying to run for reelection in conservative districts in the upcoming midterms.

Friend to the blog David Denholm gave us a delicious example of this cutting off of the Democratic nose to spite the union's face going on in Pensylvania's 17th Congressional District...

U.S.S.R. Lite!

We MUST understand that if they are able to win and turn us into a full-fledged commie nation it will be worse: With the advance of computing and technology the worthless politicians at all levels can literally direct every aspect of our lives. This was something that was only a pipe dream in the old Soviet Union and even in Communist China today. North Korea does not have the wealth to do so.

What the Government can do to us is cause to shudder, and I worry that now the Homeland Security idiots have the Predators and such then they can kill any patriot who tries to stand up to communism.

We should be scared and vigilant.
