Message to Wisconsin taxpayers: President Obama and the Democratic National Committee have declared war on you. Message to other states: Youre next.
The political unrest in Wisconsin, billed as some kind of grass-roots uprising, is being organized and directed by Barack Obamas Organizing for America and the Democratic National Committee. This development is consistent with Mr. Obamas instructions for supporters to get in the face of those who oppose them, but in this case, they are seeking to derail a lawful legislative process.
On Thursday, 14 Democratic state lawmakers fled Wisconsins capital to prevent the legislature from conducting official business. Dan Grandone, state director for the presidents campaign apparatus, accused Gov. Scott Walker of ignoring Wisconsin voices today and asking for the power to drown them out permanently tomorrow. It is important to note that the voices of which Mr. Grandone speaks are not those of the public at large. Voters sent an unmistakable message in November by taking solid majorities in the state Assembly and Senate away from Democrats and handing even greater control to Republicans. Mr. Walker, a Republican, won by six points over the incumbent Democrat.
That the protesters speak in a different voice can be seen in the signs they carry. Many compare Mr. Walker to Hitler, Mussolini or Hosni Mubarak. One placard had the slogan Repeal Walker with the governors head in sniperscope cross hairs. This is the symbolism that Democrats recently denounced as hate-filled rhetoric, and it is far from the voice of the public. It is rather the voice of an entitled class that seeks by any means to stop its free ride from coming to an end.
