From article:

"...he called Republican members of Congress "sons of bitches" and said union workers are ready to "go to war" with the tea party next year and "take out" Republicans at the ballot box.

Hoffa said he'd say the exact same words all over again."
~~~~~~~~~~`

That is NOT what Hoffa said

I made the following partial transcript when Megan Kelly broadcasted Hoffa's remarks again and held the following interview. I didn't transcribe all of Megan's remarks, only most of Blakeman's and Harpootlian's.
~~~~~~~~~`

Sept 5, 2011 (immediately preceding Obama's Labor Day remarks)

Megan Kelly rebroadcasted the following portion of Hoffa's remarks:

Hoffa: "We gotta to keep an eye on the battle that we face---a war on workers. You see it everywhere and it is the Tea Party. And you know there's 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, they got a war, they got a war with us, and there is only gonna be one winner, and it's going to be the workers of Michigan and America. We are gonna win that war.....

Pres Obama, This is your army. We are ready to march. Let's take these SOB's [Hoffa uses the full phrase] out and give America back to America where we belong. Thank you very much."

BRAD BLAKEMAN (fmr dep asst to GW Bush): "I think it's thuggery at its best. It's what unions are good at. It's what we've seen in Wisconsin and other places---intimidation. But, this is the warm-up act? This is the touchy-feely act before the Pres arrives. These are the kind of remarks you'd expect out of Tony Soprano, not a union president. Well..I take that back. A Hoffa presidency is the type of person you hear this type of rhetoric from. The President should repudiate it."

Then Dick Harpootlian), SC democratic party chair, defends Hoffa and basically says the TP does the same stuff.

DICK HARPOOTLIAN: "Is that any worse than what the TP's saying....these guys are snarling and frothing at the mouth...."

BRAD: "When a union pres says, "Let's take these SOB's out, it usually means somebody's legs are going to get broken; somebody's going to disappear. TP people don't use that kind to rhetoric and you know they don't. If you can't stand up, Dick, and say what this guy said is wrong, then you are incredible. Don't deflect and try to bring the TP into it. The TP didn't say this---A union president it. He said it before the Pres of the US was going to remark. And by the way, it's not Union Day, it's Labor Day. It celebrates all American workers, not just unions."

Then Megan Kelly remarked about all the libs' comments (Waters, Andre Carson, etc). "Everybody is getting a pass on a piecemeal basis, but, collectively, do you think it's about more, in your view, Dick?"

Then Dick mentions Rick Perry's remarks calling Bernanke "treasonous."

Brad pointed out that a lot of Repubs stood up and said he was wrong to say that. "...People who have this type of hate speech...."

Megan: "Why doesn't he (Pres) reign in members of his own party...?" Megan then repeats what Hoffa said, and DICK says, "I'm sorry, I just don't see anything wrong with that. I know it's touchy-feely time up at Fox News today, but I just don't...I don't see what is wrong with that at a rally."

BRAD: "It's called being civil; it's called being respectful... and you don't have the guts to stand up against the President and those who support him when they do wrong."

Title should be:

Hoffa: “No Regrets” Over Speech Calling For Violence Against NON-UNION American workers.

The only non-union, non recipients of government entitlement Americans who would deny their support of the Tea Party are the Americans who have no idea what the Tea Party supports.

The only Americans that would detest the Tea Party are government and some union workers, welfare collectors who have other options.

Does Hoffa mean his thugs should “take out” tea partiers as they go to vote?

There is a new stadium being built somewhere awaiting Mr Hoffa’s presence in its foundation.

I used to tell myself “If they become brazen enough in their hatred of America and the middle class,people will see”.
I guess I was wrong, they seem to be winning by convincing the folks who pay no taxes that they are paying too many taxes and somehow deserve the money of everyone else.
I've seen a decent chunk of the world. If I had to be truly destitute and could chose a place to park my sorry butt it would be right here in the U.S.of A..
I believe if we don't gain control in the next election it is a done deal,the game is lost and it's time to hit reset and just start over.

I must have missed the memo. Here is a quick Google search, and I can't find the TEA (Taxed Enough Already) Party declaring war on anyone except a slight spin saying they declared war on Mittens.....

Why have we been calling these union members “thugs” and “goons” who use “mob tactics?” It is because we have watched them beat, kick, intimidate and use other violent tactics against peaceful Tea Party citizens wishing to exercise their freedoms as guaranteed by the Constitution. The only constitution America’s unions know is when they say, “I must get to a toilet to do my daily constitution.” It is where they throw the U.S. Constitution and all effort for civil behavior.

I’ve been posting for years this is war. The Leftists, the “Progressives”, the Democrats declared war on us many, many years ago, and it’s about time we realized it, and started to fight back.

This is our country NOT the government’s. The government belongs to us not to the elitist Leftists, and RINO’s that participate in the government.

It’s long past time to kick some butt, and make them aware of who IS the boss around here.

Americans hate losers. It’s time to point out the winners, and the losers to the American people, and piss them off. Then, and only then will they get off their tails, and pay attention to winning back what was America.
