From the era of Saul Alinsky comes this counsel from none other than Spike Jones and his Band:

Never hit your grandma with a shovel, it makes a bad impression on her mind.

Who'd thought that a U.S. president would one day order his "people" to have shovels ready?

Never hit your grandma with a shovel,
It makes a bad impression on her mind.
In a better way impart, all the love that's in your heart,
For 'tis possible she may retort in kind.
Remember granny's known you since a baby,
And even though in fun might prove a shock.
So respect her aged head, spare the shovel, and instead,
Paste your dear old, sweet old granny with a rock.

- I've got this one in an old songbook Soft Boiled Ballads - a Collection of Heart Wrecking Songs by H.W. Hanemann. Includes such other wonders as "The Bootlegger's Child", "The Slug in the Slot Machine", and "Just a Frowsy Little Dump (to me it's home)".

I didn't realize Spike had covered it. The sarcasm is probably a little too delicate for the SEIU thugs.

Who would have thought that someone who prder his people to have their shovels ready would be elected President by alleged Americans?

They are just getting what they deserved. Until they starting fighting fire with bigger fire it will only get worse.

This whole thing would not be happening if the fools had not elected obama.
