Union Goons Rough Up Town Hall in Florida (August 6, 2009)
The Up Blog ^ | 8/7/09 | Brian Humeck

I can’t believe what the union goons are doing at town hall meetings. I first heard about their presence when Mike Gallagher read the news story from the Huffington Post yesterday morning. Below is a video from the Tampa Bay meeting. Below the video are a couple links from news stories of the events. The comments may be more informative than the news stories themselves. One story mentions that a lady that had been very vocal on behalf of health care reform was arrested in St. Louis and had been sprayed with pepper spray. I like what one of the policemen said when she begged for some water to rinse out her eyes, “I warned you.” I’m hoping the others who were arrested were also liberals. Another one probably was since he was a reporter for the Post Dispatch. My hope is that conservatives will remain calm and that we’ll turn the other cheek when the Democrat union goons attack. But knowing the news media, even if a conservative is killed by a union goon, and the goon gets scratched in the fight, the headlines would read, “CONSERVATIVE WACKO ASSAULTS HEALTH CARE SUPPORTER!”

This is what Obama and Chicago politics are like. It can only get worse if they've just now begun to fight back. As they said Thursday, "They'll punch back twice as hard."

I can't wait to see how the White House spins this. Maybe Obama will make some "Stupidly" remark without all the facts. If he doesn't, his minions will.

Hello USA, this is what Chicago politics look like up front. The difference is Chicago folk have been neutered years ago. The fight in most of them has gone away or was never nurtured. Therefore the politicians are pretty cocky, things always seem to go their way. Lord willing, the USA will send these arrogant souls back to where they came from. If Chicago is content to keep these idiots by all means they should truly keep them.

So the paid for groups were dispatched! (It just turns out they were there for the Dems, and not the Repubs.) Interesting.

Here's my take: Obama is not as strong to the task as he thinks he is. Sure he's had some hefty mentors... but he's prone to slip ups because he cares too much about his own image. From what I've seen, his own image trumps the ideology that he believes. though both are very high.) I'm sure he'll accidentally reveal Achilles' heels as time goes on as he wrestles with what's best for his image or his ideals.

I could be wrong, but that's my $0.02 USD.

Does Obama want to beat up granny before he kills her?

The American People won't like that .... they'll kick these guys' butts all the way to Leavenworth.
