Obama's Thugocracy
FOXNews.com ^ | 5/21/2010 | Andrea Tantaros

Posted on 05/22/2010 9:57:11 AM PDT by ezfindit

From the G.M. bondholders, to the Black Panthers at polling stations, to ACORN to the mobs showing up at the homes of private citizens, Obama is running a Hugo Chavez-style thugocracy.

This past Sunday, in one of the most aggressive and offensive intimidation tactics to date, hundreds of members of the largest union – the SEIU – stormed the front yard of Bank of America deputy general counsel Greg Baer’s home. The angry mob had bullhorns, signs and even broke the law by trespassing to bully Baer’s teenage son, the only one home at the time, who locked himself in the bathroom out of fear.

This is what unions do. They pressure politicians into spending too much. They push government into bad policy decisions. They sacrifice the private sector for the public sector. And now, they trespass and break the law only to scare the children of private citizens to get their way. If you think the unions are working alone, think again.

These protests, the ones storming Wall Street bank lobbies and now the private homes of bankers, are likely being carefully coordinated with the White House to increase their profile against the financial fat cats and help pass disgraced Connecticut Senator Chris Dodd’s financial regulatory bill.

The Marxists and communists have not changed their tactics in 90+ years. These bastards need to be prosecuted for violating the rights of innocent Americans.

I suspect they are desperately looking for a reason to enforce Marshall law and prevent any new elections.

I wonder when that shooting will start; frankly I’m amazed it hasn’t already.

And something like this... if I were on the jury, there’s almost no way I’d convict the man for shooting, killing, maiming, or otherwise destroying the lives of the people who participated in this mob in this instance.

I stated on the Wed morning after the 2008 election that Zero would be the last President elected by the United States of America. You can interpret that any way you want, but it sure looks like my prediction is going to come true........red

It better, if we're to retain any rights at all. :-(

And that is why I now have a CCW...Even if there is no widespread "unrest", it seems to me like the thugs have been emboldened. Why be easy prey?

Martial law not “Marshall Law,” there is a difference.

If they were to try that at my house, I’d end the day in jail, and a lot of them would end the day on a slab in the morgue. Anyone that comes on my property without my permission or a valid warrant from a court of law is putting his or her life in my hands.

It's "martial" law.

Martial == having to do with things military, like martial music.

Marshall == police officer at various levels, generally appointed rather than elected. Such as Marshall Dillon.

But I suspect a fraudulent election is more likely than a blatant suspension of elections. At least the next few go rounds.

I agree 100%. I’ll be surprised if we actually have elections in November.

Oh, and I hope and pray some of you are able to come back
in November and call me an wild-eyed conspiracy theorist.

I pray that I have to eat crow on this prediction.

Too bad the kid who was home, in fear for his life, didn’t take out a half dozen or so of the union thugs with dad’s hunting rifle.

Don’t say thug. That is racist! They actually believe this.

I would like to see Mr Baer bring some kind of suit against the union goons who physically threatened his son.
