Union thugs aren't helping Obama on health care
nj.com ^ | August 8, 2009 | Paul Mulshine

Posted on 08/08/2009 4:29:30 PM PDT by libstripper

I wonder who's the genius who first thought up the idea of having a bunch of thugs all wearing the same colored shirts show up to intimidate opponents of the government.

Now I remember! It was that funny little guy with the mustache from Austria. What's his name again? I think it was "Schicklgruber" or something.

Anyway, that sort of stunt loses a little something when it crosses the Atlantic, as you can see from the above video. A gang of thugs wearing matching shirts bearing the initials of the Service Employees International Union can be seen engaging in what appears to be an attack on a person who was handing out "Don't tread on me" flags in opposition to the Obama administration's health-care plans.

We’ll see if the union thug plan worked ir not when we see the results of the TH meetings the next 10 days. If they return to how they were then it didn’t work, if they don’t then the attacks were very successful and indicates we are in deep dodo.

His opinion doesn’t come free, you know. Have a spare $100,000 in your pocket?

That's the sort of thing that happens when a politician misreads peaceful protest and over-reacts. Will the Obama Democrats learn their lesson? I certainly hope not. Keep those T-shirted goons coming, guys! It's always fun to watch a politician commit political suicide.

Mulshine is a very bright author who has been a guest on Michael Savage's radio show, (who unfortunately thinks lowly of Sarah Palin) and has a clear view of the relationship between thugs and Democrats.

Tennessee Reps won’t even do it. That jack-ass on Thursday in St. Louis would have lost a few teeth.

I believe that the law here in Texas (and probably a number of other states) permits concealed weapon holders to fire on people if they have reason to think that an innocent life is in danger.

The SEIU should be VERY CAREFUL about assaulting people in flyover country...they may start losing members.

My brother, retired Army Sgt. major, sent this email tonight in regard to what these union thugs are up to:

“I KNOW THESE THUGS LIKE A BOOK AND LET ME TELL YOU WHAT THEY ARE UP TO;

-—THEY ARE GEARING UP TO TURN THE THUGS LOOSE ON YOU, BUT FIRST THEY ARE HAVING ALL THEIR MEDIA WHORES LAY THE GROUND WORK BY PAINTING YOU AS THE SOURCE OF THE VIOLENCE AND EXTREMISM, SO THEY CAN BLAME YOU WHEN IT HAPPENS!

THE USUAL SUSPECTS ( CNN, MSNBC, NPR, HUFFINGTON POST ETC. ETC. ) ARE WORKING IN HARMONY TO PAINT YOU AS UNREASONABLE RIGHT WING, GUN TOTTING EXTREMISTS / RACISTS ETC. ETC.

YOU BETTER WATCH OUT, AND BE READY!!!

JIM..the sergeants major”

That sounds very plausable. That is why, while they (the enemies of my Country) are probably thinking 2 or 3 steps ahead, WE need to be ready for it and be thinking 3 or 4 steps ahead, in terms of strategy. We need counter strategy if/when they pull this stuff as retired Army Sgt. major suspects and knows them to do.

I have followed Communist trade unionist tactics in various parts of the world and it all fits together. This is exactly what they are planning. Expect it in the next 5 to 7 days in my opinion. The MSM will be a critical part in the aftermath to skewer it to make patriots look like the aggressors. You can see it come, fellow Americans.

“PURPLE PEOPLE BEATERS!”

That’s inspired! You are quick! Hopefully Doug can come up with something. Or Limbaugh’s guy.

I love parody, it is the best humor to me.

Is not the color purple a gang-banger color as well?

Anything can become ominous in context.

I am not certain what or when, but there will be a catch phrase that summarizes this and it will be apparent soon and it could go viral. That is just how these things work.

BTW, purple is one of my favorite colors and I have a friend whose wardrobe and home decor contains as many shades of purple as there are. And just to add to the confusion, purple is a color heavily favored by many Christian denominations/groups. Lutheran Woman’s Missionary League comes to mind.

I would personally like the simple, time-honored term *union thug* to become the prevalent usage.

I suspect ACORN will become,in time, this generation's "Brownshirts." SIEU is probably not providing its services on its own or (directly) the government's dime. ACORN has the $billions(passed through indirectly from the government/taxpayers) to finance this stuff and probably is doing that.

I think the word is already provided: ACORN. ACORN and SIEU are the groups around whom the Civilian Defense Force is being organized.

The internal polling at the white house must have been atrocious on having union thugs beat up black patriots.

BS! All these 'threats' and 'racist' claims are manufactured. Not a single complaint about those things until O's thugs got involved. No violence until his thugs got involved.

Obama and his Chicago goons have epic fail on their hands. The will not win in the court of public opinion. And they are scared out of their mind.

Love Parody as well...sometimes I wake up in the middle of the night and it is just there....any great old tune with decent parody is good......with great parody may be better than the original.

To the tune of Irish Eyes are smiling

When the welfare crowd is smiling
Sure the check came in the mail
Cash to buy the cocaine
Bucks to post the bail

Food to feed the pit bull
Cheese to catch the rats
Gasoline for the car
To go vote for Democrats

But if welfare guys are smiling
It’s at the expense of you and me
They’ll be looking for handouts
From now till eternity

LOTS of truth to this parody lol
