Despite President Obamas repeated claims to change the tone in Washington, the White House has no comment this afternoon on incendiary statements made by a union leader who spoke before the president at todays Labor Day rally. Warming up the crowd before President Obamas speech in Detroit this afternoon, Teamsters President Jimmy Hoffa, Jr. warned the largely-union crowd that the Tea Party was waging a war on workers and said that, come November, they should take these sons of bitches out. We got to keep an eye on the battle that we face: The war on workers. And you see it everywhere, it is the Tea Party. And you know, there is only one way to beat and win that war. The one thing about working people is we like a good fight. And you know what? Theyve got a war, they got a war with us and theres only going to be one winner. Its going to be the workers of Michigan, and America. Were going to win that war, Hoffa told thousands of workers gathered for the annual event organized by the Detroit Labor Council. President Obama, this is your army. We are ready to march
Lets take these sons of bitches out and give America back to an America where we belong, he concluded.

The “Tea Party” is grassroots America. If Hoffa is declaring war on the Tea Party then he is declaring war on middle America and he will be soundly routed in such a political war.
What is ironic is the Tea Party and conservatives are trying to save unions from themselves. With 9% unemployment they are certainly taking their fair share of the job losses. Conservatives want to grow the economy and this will save and grow all jobs including union jobs.
What a stain on history this man has become. I almost feel sorry for those that thought he was some kind of second coming. What a collective screw up his election has been.
Obamsky is going to the mattresses. He’s going to enrage the base and demagogue the opposition and hope he can turn the apolitical to vote for him.
That would be priceless and actually an outstanding way for Boehner & the House Repubs to do this and command the high ground, and force 0dumb0 to publicly renounce Hoffa & his union thuggery. And 0dumb0 would throw Hoffa under the bus, no doubt about it, in order to get his face time again on national TV.
Too bad that Boehner or the House Repub leadership doesn't have the balls to do this.
Just like he didn't hear anything questionable during 20 years attending racist Wright's rantings.
I totally agree. In the meantime we need to go viral exposing these union thugs for the Socialist/Porgressives they are. These are NOT your father’s union members.

It's not like they weren't warned!
Me thinks he going to lose.
Hey man...GET YOUR HATE ON>>>VOTE OBAMA>>>>VOTE DEOMOCRAT!!
Damned, why can't things be more cut and dry?
“GET YOUR HATE ON”
I think that is a prerequisite in order to vote DUmocrat.
Not to worry. Lib columnists by the dozens will be writing articles condemning Hoffa for his stupid, incendiary remarks. (smirk)
Another question: Since this rhetoric obviously identifies this event as a political campaign rally, why is the US taxpayer footing the bill for it?
Oh good grief...it is all clear. Go watch the whole video. The media is in a tizzy because they have no defense to mount for Zero the Marxist Hero.
Good question..hoodat!!
Clear call to violence, called for by Omullah, Biden, Hoffa, Waters, etc etc from the progressive communist side. We got the message, don’t worry.
Obama is the big student of Lenin and Trotsky. Well, here is a little recap from a nice website:
http://www.historyguide.org/europe/lecture6.html
The marxisits are well rehearsed in this progressive manner of government takeover. The financial collapse is well under way. Now the social order and political collapse are the immediate priorities.
“If we seize power to-day, we seize it not against the Soviets but for them.
Seizure of power is the point of the uprising; its political task will be clarified after the seizure.
It would be a disaster or formalism to wait for the uncertain voting of November 7. The people have a right and a duty to decide such questions not by voting but by force; the people have a right and duty in critical moments of a revolution to give directions to their representatives, even their best representatives, and not to wait for them.
This has been proven by the history of all revolutions, and the crime of revolutionists would be limitless if they let go the proper moment, knowing that upon them depends the saving of the revolution, the offer of peace, the saving of Petrograd, the saving from starvation, the transfer of the land to the peasants.”
Yup, I reject the “buy American” platitudes as long as “Smerican” includes these thugees.
Hmmm..no transfer of land to the peasants! I sit on 150 acres that they have no right to...EVER!!!!!!! All of my ancestors from the revolution to the civil war held on to this little hill in the woods, Come and take!
