Hoffa: “No Regrets” Over Speech Calling For Violence Against Conservatives, This Is a “War”…
Weasel Zippers ^ | 9/5/11 | Zip

Thug.

(TPM) — Teamsters union president James Hoffa would say it all again if he could, he told TPM Monday.

Hoffa riled up Fox News and the right wing Monday with a Labor Day speech in Detroit in which 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.

“I would because I believe it,” he said. “They’ve declared war on us. We didn’t declare war on them, they declared war on us. We’re fighting back. The question is, who started the war?”

Hmmmm - - - . Sounds like Zero’s base is getting involved in the campaign.

I like the mental image - - - Zero Base means Lots of Hate.

Might work as a chant, especially in Wisconsin.

Two phrases come to mind:

"Don't fire until you see the white of their eyes"

"Never start a fight, but d**n well finish it"

That was a lovely collection and I was deeply saddened when I heard you'd lost it all in a freak tornado. It must have been a powerful twister since none were recovered.

Since the fat bastard already obviously conquered the tax payer funded buffet, he is moving on to conservatives? Unlike the all you can eat nachos, we can fight back. Bring it biatch. I’m ready.

Hoffa: “No Regrets”

Nobody has regrets until they sober up.

Keep digging a deep hole Jimmy... Just keep digging.

I don't see it as a clearly defined good or evil conflict but rather as a struggle by many disparate groups to bring an “undecided” minority into their circle of influence.
A group does not need a majority to inflict it's agenda upon the whole of the populous.They simply need a large and vocal minority in collusion with the media and a message strong and simple enough to be repeated by ignorant adherents to succeed.
If that does not describe the Teamsters, I don't know what does.

“take out” Republicans at the ballot box——————

that part was added by the article.

Hoffa never said ‘at the ballot box’.

I may be wrong but I think that guy in the picture with zero is Governor Christie.

Local .50 I’ve heard of, but Local .12??? That’s a small union isn’t it? There is a slightly larger union I’m familiar with. It is Local .177. Ever heard of that one? They are a bunch of airheads but they go about their business in a very quiet manner.

How many times must someone broadcast his intentions,a group repeat it's threats, a party hammer it's doctrine into the stone of your country's foundation stones before you
realize they are a threat?
Do we wait until the troops are sent to enforce their mandates? Perhaps we let them go so far as to decide what rights are really needed and which need to be discarded because they are deemed detrimental to the “Common Good”.
I will not wait that long. They have stepped on my Constitutional toes one too many times and I'm ready to stomp back.

DV, the tubbie in the pic is Gov. Chris Christie of NJ, when Zero visited NJ on Sunday.

That’s not Hoffa, Jr.

Oh sure. More tough talk.

We know they are a threat. People see it. LET PEOPLE SEE IT ... then people wake up and vote.

You can have your finger on your hair-trigger as much as you want to ... but all this itchin’ for it ... it does no good.

You just look like someone who is paranoid for a confrontation.

Any kind of physical confrontation (on MY PART) would be last resort.

Yes... we wait for them to try to deploy troops against citizens. I remember rabid liberals saying that Bush was going to do that. Do YOU remember when they said Bush was going to do that?

What EXACTLY do you want? You’d better win on the noble field of ideas before ANYONE thinks about trying to do anything on any field of battle.

No one has stomped you. People just got feverish about someone that they thought was going to solve problems. They almost worshiped him. But he’s failing. We are watching him fail. We are watching Americans wake up.

There has ALWAYS been an ideological battle. We solve it in the court of public opinion.

I laugh at idiots on Democratic Underground who seem to itch for a REAL bloody revolution.... I don’t want to laugh at my own fellows who should have more sense.

IF it comes to US... then sure ... it’s ON... but no one has really brought it yet. In fact, I think things were messier in the 60’s than they are now.

If the system collapses, think of the impact. People won’t get meds. Citizens will be in violence. No one will have money.

Don’t itch for some conflict that no one has brought to you yet... they’re just mouth farting.

America’s first president who gets a thrill when hearing about war against his opposition. My generation has produced the first zero president.
