The Day The Quincy Cops Saved Obama From The Singing Tea Party Grandmas
David Horowitz's NewsRealBlog.com ^ | April 30, 2010 | John L. Work

Wednesday marked a day that legends are made of in the annals of American Law Enforcement. President Obama gave a speech at the Oakley Lindsay Civic Center in Quincy, Illinois. World Net Daily’s Chelsea Schilling reports that a group of about 200 Tea Party protesters, many of them grandmotherly types, gathered outside the auditorium. They were carrying signs that had slogans like “Give Us Liberty, Not Debt” written on them. They wore red, white and blue shirts. I know, I know- it is very shocking for you to learn that American grandmas would behave in this fashion.

Not about to allow this kind of dangerous and disruptive behavior with the President, Himself, in town, the Secret Service ordered these radical grandmothers to go across the street. So, across the street they went – and began to sing songs - like “God Bless America” and “The Star Spangled Banner”. I hope your children are not looking over your shoulder as you read all this horror.

Well, that just did it. The Quincy Deputy Chief of Police, Ron Dreyer, ordered a fully armed, helmeted, baton-wielding SWAT Team to march in close order drill formation and place themselves between the Tea Party Grandmas and the auditorium wherein The President was situated. Thank goodness.

Schilling’s report, along with embedded video of the valiant SWAT Operation is here:

I wonder if any of the cops are Oath Keepers? If they are, then they’d keep the Grannys safe from the scum.

Next time, I recommend the grannies should take along some large flySWATters to fan themselves and take some funny pictures of themselves in front of the SWAT team.
Some new phrases for which SWAT might make an acronym, would also be amusing.

If any of them are limber enough they should also get down in a chicken squat, and buck-buck a little. I don’t think it would provoke any tear gas release.

I have taken my elderly parents to 3 Tea Parties in our area. I dropped by Wednesday to show them the pics of the Quincy rally. We had a great chuckle seeing the grandmas with the SWAT unit in the background. I swear.....it looks like something from The Onion or SNL. Mother died laughing and said, “Oh, look at those ‘terrorists’!” LOL! My folks have a great sense of humor. :-)

Thank you. Mockery can be deadly to tyrants. 0bama and all his minions need to be “mooned” until they are no longer taken seriously even by their own wretched kind.
But I’d understand if boomers aren’t inclined to moon in the strict sense of the term. They can still ridicule him into utter defeat.

Of course, I’m not in possession of all the facts, but let me just say that the Cambridge Police acted...

...stupidly.
