Lawmaker says barricade of WWII memorial is 'Chicago thuggery'

A group of Texas congressmen armed with wire cutters made their way to the World War II Memorial in Washington after they learned the National Park Service had reinforced the barriers blocking the site with wire.

“This is Chicago thuggery,” Rep. Louie Gohmert (R-TX) told me. “The president is trying to inflict the most amount of pain and suffering. This is not some bureaucratic mistake. This is Chicago thuggery. You try to make people hurt so they don’t resist what you tell them to do in the future.”

Of course people are not mere Skinnerian automatons. They have a spiritual side and know they need a God, however poorly they may conceive God.

Well at least in the midst of all this dung created by The Great One we find that there are a few real stand up men that represent us occassionally (though they could be flipped by an NSA file, death threats by the 0 administration, pulling of funding, payoff by the most transparent administration ever in the future).

Since Obama is obviously trying to inflict suffering instead of ensuring domestic tranquilty, Obama is committing another of his many impeachable offenses.

Let’s see the Parkies take down a member of Congress for wielding wire dikes. Get nameplates & badge numbers.

Parkies attack witnesses wielding cellcams - icing on the cake.

More than Chicago thuggery, I'd call it GOVERNMENT thuggery.

The Obozo and his thugs in the outhouse and park service need to realize that if they create/cause a Kent State incident with our vets. All hell on earth will descend on them and the rats in congress for the next decade!

Louie Gohmert is great. He’s always been there to support freedom at every rally I’ve been to in DC.

I wish he was my congressman.

O’bastard is subjecting us to battered wife syndrome. Can we be loyal to the republic, even when a total scum bag is POTUS ?
