And we've seen which side the MSM takes, either in spreading a false story or hyping a story, while burying anything that will hurt the party they favor -- the Democratic Party. The MSM is joined at the hip with the Left and they will make Republicans look evil. The MSM will tell middle America and the poor that evil, selfish Republicans cling selfishly to what they have and don't care about their misery or their problems (but that the Left does, the unions do -- that socialism is the way -- that the rich must equally share).
We're reading and hearing about increased "mob" behavior and violence in everyday places -- places Americans never gave a moment's worry about being safe before. U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder told the country that people in the U.S. who did not belong to "a historically oppressed group," that they should not expect protection from this administration.
The Left is priming the pump. As the title of this piece says, they have unveiled their weapon of the future.
The future is here.
If we don't speak up now we will be drowned out and overrun
We can not duck this any longer.
Perceptive article.
The Democrats are fighting so dirty abecause the evisceration of the unions will cost them huge amounts of money. It’s no exaggeration to say it will bleed them white.
I say we ought to go after the second leg of their three-legged stool too, and bring in tort reform that will put 80% of lawyers right out of business. We can finish them off for a generation at least, if we continue to fight just as viciously as they do.
And where do we think the TSA fits in all this? Hmmm.....
Excellent analysis and article by whom Frank Rich described as a “right wing screed”. If that elitist leftie queer thinks poorly of you, it’s a true compliment.
I would venture a guess some of the “leaders” of this leftist revolt got their start on the University campus at Madison, and other places, 45 years ago.
Ping for later

The coming civil war will be between those pigging put in the public trough, and those of us who labor to fill it. The trough is empty because the pigs got greedy, and now expect us to labor harder to refill it.
The only point where I disagree with the author is that Soros wasted his money on Obama.
While Obama is a failure from a leadership perspective.....he could have gotten a lot more accomplished while the Dems had the fillibuster-proof margins......Obama is a tool to be used to stir up the unaligned mobs in our inner cities.
Once the nominees are chosen, expect these mobs to turn our cities to ashes as they rebel against the “racist” nation that wants to fire the first black president.
They will claim, as always, that we have always been a racist nation, that the founders were racists and that the Constitution is a racist document that must be eliminated.
Next year will be a defining moment in US history.
Ping.
“...and Stalin backing the “Republicans” (actually a motley gaggle of various left-wing elements).”
And Hemingway and Hollywood romanticizing the commies every step of the way.
What the democrats will try to bring down on us will make the Spanish Civil War and Nazi atrocities seem like an evening in a knitting circle.
The article: “It failed to overawe the Wisconsin state senate. It failed to halt Gov. Walker’s bill. It failed to vote Justice Prosser out of office, and it has now failed to enmesh him in a faked criminal incident.”
Thomas Edison: “I didn’t fail ten thousand times. I successfully eliminated, ten thousand times, materials and combinations which wouldn’t work.”
Horror movie lesson: Make sure the monster’s dead before you decide the struggle is finished.
These tactics may be new to the American left/liberals, but they have a long and “distinguished” history amongst groups such as the National Socialist German Workers’ Party during the 30s, and the Italian Partito Nazionale Fascista.
The democrats have been dreaming of a global communist state for 150 years, they can taste it now.
They would reduce the planet to a cinder before giving up. Anyone that does not realise that is a fool.
Federation of Teachers, On Launch of Worldwide Quality Public Services Campaign
WASHINGTON—The American Federation of Teachers joins with workers around the world to launch a new campaign aimed at advancing quality public services in every nation.
The AFT is proud to be a full partner in the Council of Global Union’s “Quality Public Services—Action Now!” campaign to support investment in the services that create jobs and provide the foundation for long-term economic growth. The council is highlighting and supporting essential public services that keep our communities strong and help build sustainable, healthy economies.
From Wisconsin to Cairo, citizens have been fighting efforts to keep workers silent. As public employees in Wisconsin continue their struggle to maintain collective bargaining rights, Wisconsin has been selected as a pilot site in the “Quality Public Services—Action Now!” campaign, through the AFT-affiliated Wisconsin Federation of Nurses and Health Professionals and AFT-Wisconsin.
Defending public services and the workers who provide them is a worldwide challenge, and the AFT is standing with allies around the globe to maintain those services and the rights of public employees. That’s why I led an AFT delegation that visited Egypt to meet with the independent Egyptian unions whose efforts proved decisive in bringing down the corrupt regime that ruled their country for decades.

Bump & a Ping
This is NOT inevitable. A sense of “inevitability” is what the MSM ALWAYS tries to paint...so as to discourage rational, organized opposition to their hyper-emotional insane screaming and ranting.
It does mean that most of us who disdain or eschew politics will no have that luxury if we intend to remain free and carry the banner of individual freedoms into the heart of the 21st century, however. We will have to get up , go out, and do it.
All FReepers should be aware of it and understand its significance.
It should be bumped at every opportunity.
