Nina Easton: What I saw at the SEIU thug protest at that banker’s home

Has Captain Civility or his flack-in-chief been asked about this yet by any reporter, incidentally? Not that they’re obligated to answer for every sin committed by every crank on their side of the aisle; that privilege is reserved for Republicans. But after all the demagoguery about teabaggers gone wild coupled with all the finger-wagging at conservatives about disagreeing without being disagreeable, you’d think he might have thoughts on his closest union crony sending a rampaging horde to intimidate a banker at his home. But then, this is the guy who once told a group of financial CEOs, “My administration is the only thing between you and the pitchforks.”

Here’s Easton on Fox today, punching back twice as hard.

I think some good ads could come out of this.

Start with film of a screaming SEIU mob at the home of the employee of the bailed out bank. Maybe some text about the teen son hiding in a bathroom.

Next cut to the home of an SEIU bigwig on a quiet street in a nice neighborhood. Birds chirping etc. Run some text with this home that says “While you were scaring children, the man inside this home raided your pension funds to buy politicians. SEIU, where are you now?”

These people know how to game the system. They also know they can count on union solidarity with police. Next time, it will be a rock through the window...with not a single “witness” as to who threw it.

This incident brings to mind the turbas divinas, the "divine mobs" incited by Nicaragua's Sandinista government to intimidate its opponents during the 1980's.

I heard Limbaugh say that the SEIU thugs had a police escort to where they did their “protest”,or, in my opinon, intimidation and thuggery.

My question is where are the police can do no wrong crowd on this? Do they believe that this is right for the police to do this? Obviously they do.

In Illinois, the governor gave the OK for SEIU thugs to go to the homes of home care workers who voted against unionization to “convince” them to reconsider.

Such ads would likely be effective. Intimidation tactics used by tinhorn dictators in the Third World ought to be repugnant to most Americans.

We all only wish that the right would produce ads like this. At risk of repeating myself again, the republicans are too busy playing nicey nicey to notice that their is a boot up their ass.

Very good observation. I really hope that someone in a position of influence will see your remarks.

First rule of publicity is not to p*ss off the press. I believe SEIU has lost most people’s support with this last action.

Just a question to see if history repeating itself is getting too weird

OK So the head of the Brownshirts, Ernst Rome, was Gay (of the "I want to be a Macho Man" bullying thug type)along with all the SA leadership

Any one know the status of Andy Stern, the head of our new Purpleshirts? Because the story is Andy Stern is also Gay (and sure seem to be the same bullying thug type)

After seeing some of SEIU thug protest (like at this banker’s home)I get the feeling we can soon expect a "Night of the Broke Glass" from our Purpleshirt friends

Soon to be follow by a political version of "Night of the Long Knives" from Obama to "CYA" because of public outrage over SEIU thug tactics

You won’t hear that from me. Some of you blame the police for every slight.
In this case, I accuse the Maryland police of cowardice for failure to take action to quell a disturbance. The DC metro police who escorted them to the out of jurisdiction location need to be charges as accessories.
I am about as pro police as you can find, been in public safety for 35 years. However, this action was wrong.
From one of my police lists, an officer who was in DC for police week noteda bus load of these protestors were staying at his hotel: $200.00 per night per room. I wonder who was paying the bill????
