It was funny seeing Barney Frank on MSMBC wailing about those meanies using threats, just because the vote didn’t go their way. Nothing about how upsetting it is to the public when the vote goes their way by huge bribes using our taxpayer monies, and their threats stating they wouldn’t help incumbent Dems. get re-elected. Barney is the biggest crook going, as evidenced by his involvement in the housing debacle, and I hope he’s flung out with the trash when he’s back up for election. And any threats coming his way are well deserved.

It was in the midst of this magnificent debate, while he was descanting on the tyranny of the obnoxious Act, that he exclaimed, in a voice of thunder, and with the look of a god, "Caesar had his Brutus - Charles the first, his Cromwell - and George the third - ('Treason,' cried the Speaker - 'treason, treason,' echoed fro every part of the House. - It was one of those trying moments which is decisive of character. - Henry faltered not an instant; but rising to a loftier attitude, and fixing on the Speaker an eye of the most determined fire, he finished his sentence with the firmest emphasis) may profit by their example. If this be treason, make the most of it.

Who cares. Irrelevant whether it is true or not as the whole point of reporting it is psyops. It will be a real achievement when whites drop the fear and defensive posture when misdeeds such as "name-calling" and a few rocks are tossed. THEY HAVE TAKEN YOUR LIBERTY AND PLAN ON TAKING MORE. Do not allow yourself to be put on the defensive of the liberal orthodoxy.

 

SPOCK (to mind-melded Kirk) Unreal. Appearances only. They are shadows. Illusions. Nothing but ghosts of reality. They are lies. Falsehoods. Spectres without body. They are to be ignored.

When Pelosi and her African-American props walked through the crowd of protesters in DC, any actual shouts of N(word) would have been shown in 50 videos on YouTube within minutes. There were not and still are not any videos or audios of the event which confirm the story because IT IS A LIE.

A deliberately constructed LIE, a purposeful LIE by the political/media complex against their foes, i.e., law-abiding, tax paying, independent American citizens.

The supposed brick throwing incidents and the supposed threats are part of the same campaign of lies conducted by the political class and spread without confirmation or contradiction by their lapdogs in the media to silence and/or marginalize any dissent.

After amnesty passes and 20,000,000 new voters have their hands out to the Democrat government they will have cemented perpetual rule. Until then, they keep us in check by marginalizing through these created controversies.

When the union I once belonged to wanted to gin up support for a strike or contract talks, they would choose one or 2 popular employees and target them with insults and threats. They always implied that it was the non supporters who did this and it was meant to cause anger against the dissidents.
I wouldn’t put it past SEIU or Teamsters to do this.

How does ABC ‘News’ know these aren't just more lies from RATS?! Just like the lies about being spit on and hurling racial slurs!

It's not as if they haven't done that before. And the media lapdogs ‘report’ on it dutifully.

Even if every one of these stories is true, which I highly doubt, I'm having a hard time giving a rat's a$$.

What about the people in Philadelphia who are committing suicide because Obama didn't keep his promise to pay their mortgage and keep them from being tossed out of their houses?

Hah! I just watched that episode of Star Trek. Not one of my favorites, though. A third seasoner.

Kampuchea - In 1975 the Communist Khmer Rouge came to power in Cambodia. In an attempt to create a pure Marxist society, the leader Pol Pot ordered the cities evacuated and the population driven into the countryside to work in the fields. For a time, even money was abolished. Foreign contact even with the government was nearly nil. The Khmer Rouge were ousted by the Vietnamese invasion, but not before an estimated 3,000,000 people had been killed by starvation, disease, and mass execution.------- "When the System Crashes," Steven Dutch, Natural and Applied Sciences, University of Wisconsin - Green Bay; Created 20 May 1997, Last Update 24 March 2010 Return to Professor Dutch's Home Page

At least 10 House Democrats who voted Sunday for health care overhaul have received violent threats to their lives or property, party leaders said today.

Note the concern for their property doesn't extend to a concern about stealing our property through fines, fees, taxes and eminent domain abuse.

Sad, but; true.

The entitlement types have been emboldened to demand more and more from their progressive reps. Now, they get a roof over their head, food stamps, plus free healthcare, special school lunches, their electrical bills paid, all the kids they can pop out educated, and; if one even reads the book- it is Harvard/Ivy league time. Not quite, but; close. If these clowns can even read a prepared speech, field a few questions from their progressive media pals-they are now -intelligent, wise beyond their years, overcame adversity, stared poverty in the eye and beat it, and; they defied all odds. The new class of teach down to types has been around,culivated, and; promised much by the left.

When the local news says “big drug bust” it is 70- 100 pounds of drugs by undocumented workers. Amazing a major drug runner is undocumented. And how do undocumented workers Jose, Juan, Raoul, Carlos, and even sister Maria, who just rides in the car/truck afford 100K and more in drugs?

Sounds like undocumented is a great status to have. You are sent back to Mexico, tell the boss how they got you, then you make another run as undocumented XYZ using new names.

Now these Fed workers are union, too. Try all Civil Service to Post Office, etc. Sadly, the only grown ups are the military.

Said. Obama clearly said they would have no worries. Remember the mother with her kid saying Obama will pay my mortgage off?

Because those who listen to Rush/Hannity/Beck and co, are already conservatives ie "preaching to the choir". The vast "mushy middle" is where we need to get the information out, and the MSM has a monopoly on their attention. Talk radio and conservative spokespeople have already been categorised as "the extremist right", and it's certainly not our views which are given a fair and objective hearing in the MSM, which is still where that "mushy middle" get their information. Have you ever noticed that MSM journalists and talking heads are always simply characterised as "reporter" or "journalist", etc, even when they're blatantly liberal, but their co-respondents on the right are always characterised as "conservative editor" or "right-wing talk show host" etc? The implication is that those on the left are "objective" but those on the right are partisan. You never see a media person from the left characterised as "left wing talk show host Cokie Roberts", for instance.
