Up to the usual Alinsky antics - combining Rules #5 & #12 (see below rescript to jog your memory...) - The Connecticut Working Family Party has decided to further harrass and terrorize AIG families that received bonuses by organizing a tour bus filled with ... um.... socialists, Alinsky fans, O'faithful, and other activists who believe in intimidation tactics for political gain.
In a bittersweet irony, even the New York Magazine is appalled to find themselves on the side of Rush Limbaugh, saying:
Right, they're not fomenting rage, they're just encouraging it. So if you happen to record someone's address so you can return in the dead of night, it's not like Working Families told you to! We know we sound paranoid and we really can't believe we're actually on the same side as Rush, but this is getting way out of hand. Oh, to have fat ladies in high heels clogging up the West Village again.
Ever since Congress - trying to deflect their own responsibility and exposure of their sheer negligence - and their puppet media fanned the AIG bonuses into a side show, more dastardly deeds done in the dark of night or behind closed doors have been masked from the public's view.
Instead, the vicious circus has escalated out of control. AIG employees have found themselves the target of a particularly vicious public campaign. A powerful Congressman, virtually foaming at the mouth with fake indignation and spittle, was demanding names, while another elected official suggested they just "kill themselves". Others are recipients of emails suggesting "the firm's leaders "should be executed with piano wire around their necks."
In the meantime, the e-mails from the public have continued to roll in, including death threats and calls to blow up the firm's Wilton headquarters. Reporters and photographers have camped out in front of the offices in London and Connecticut. They have staked out employees' houses. The New York Post identified one executive and labeled him "Jackpot Jimmy." Another employee had to relocate his family after a London tabloid printed his address.
If the media and the powerful elected elite's assault isn't enough, Connecticut's chapter of the The Family Working Party has decided to transport the group of wacko crazies to the homes via bus tours... providing the very real possibility of return trips accompanied by mobs, or worse... in the dark of night to carry out some of the very real threats.
The Working Family Party... sounds so innocuous, yes? What could be more American than families. In truth, this is a third party formed by left over New Party socialists, labor unions, community organizations and... yup... everyone's favorite ACORN. Small wonder they are schooled in intimidation tactics on their fellow Americans.
Frankly, if it were my house, that tour would be met by me and several friends in rocking chairs on the porch with hunting rifles neatly laid across our laps.
And indeed, atop the increased security at the facilities to circumvent fears of employees being shot at while coming or going to work, some of the AIG families have increased security at their own homes.
Tell me... just what is President Obama's culpability, and or responsibilities, in this mob tactic? These are, afterall his personal grassroots henchmen. Brad Woodhouse's American's United for Change - which includes 25+ organizations including MoveOn.org and ACORN - remain in close touch with the WH deputy chief of staff, Jim Messina.
It was only last week when the LA Times reported on the WH in consultation with grassroots on budget issues and campaigns to marginalize Republicans.

Who is paying for all this ACORN crap? I hope this isn’t being funded through the taxes I just filed.
Circumventing established bankruptcy law has brought this about.
Bush started this, but when AIG went back for seconds and thirds...they should have been referred to the courts, NOT CONGRESS.
Now we have an administration that has usurped power that does not belong to them.
This is what happens when the checks and balances are not followed and pure emotions run amuck.
this is his civilian security force then.
shame they never got down here to FL where there was a tea party of thousands.
ummmmm... George Soros?
The only thing mildly amusing about this is there was more news media following the lone bus than there was people on the bus... what isn’t amusing is the media totally ignored the tea party in Florida today.
I think their mouths are writing checks...
These left wing mobs should have their asses kicked.
Capitalism is organized crime? Wrong, ACORN and its various leftist affiliates are organized crime.
The news media should stop encouraging this organized gangsterism.
Why is the dope with the bull horn wearing a mask? Is he afraid to make his identity known?
That’s what I thought too.
The WH must condone it ACORN has called for civil disobedience on the front page of their website for weeks now! Remember he also was and is a community agitator!
haha! The enemedia is part of the fifth column enemy of We The People that ACORN heads. If ACORN wants media coverage, they merely spin the rolodex and the alphabet spittlist jump to their demands.
If I were one of the execs, I’d put a sign in my yard:
“I’ve got mine, come and get yours!”
Below would be a picture of a gun...
The writers of the bill knew that the word ACORN would send off alarm bills with republican house members and senate because of the stink we raised about the first bill that they tried to pass with the creepy word acorn right there in black and white stating it would be getting millions of tax payer money.
At that time it was written or taken out, thanks to republican house members.
But it got back in the next one, the last stimulus to be passed. And now, using the umbrella (SECRET CODE NAME I call it) name, it got in, and it is to RECEIVE not millions but BILLIONS over the next ten years.
SO YES, YOU AND ME AND EVERYONE WHO PAYS TAXES EVERYYEAR OUT OF MONEY EACH OF US HAS EARNED ARE BEING FORCED TO SUPPORT AND PAY FOR ACORN!!!!
Makes ya want to stop paying taxes.
I agree totally.
Hmmm.... Which constistuency group of the DNC did this "gent" come from?.....
