Rifles, Bazookas, Avoidance of Weapon Imagery and "Civility"
Glen Beck radio, during news segment | Feb 8, 2011 | by Lazamataz

Posted on 02/08/2011 8:18:06 AM PST by Lazamataz

I just heard this on the news segment between Glen Beck's broadcasts, so it is otherwise unsubstantiated and probably has minor transcription errors.

However, a politician that I did not catch the name of, was talking about some proposal that Obama made. I do not remember what the proposal was. I only remember the violent weapons imagery and the subsequent lack of 'civility'.

The pol was quoted stating "The President's proposal, it's not like a bazooka.... it's more precise and focused, more like a rifle."

When I heard this, I immediately realized that the Demoncrats are almost taunting us. Sarah Palin cannot put surveyor marks on a map, but the Demons can refer to presidential proposals as "bazooka-like" or "aimed like a rifle" and that's just dandy.

KEYWORDS: banglist; bazooka; chat; civility; democrats; guns; hateful; lineitemveto; rhetoric; unsourced; unverifiable; vanity; violent
As this news gets noticed, I would like freepers to post links to any exposure this news story gets.

Heads up. You could be one of the first to locate, publicize, and make an issue of what I heard.

I need substantiation. I saw one from Thune (R-SD) a long time back (Jan 19), but this was recent enough for a radio news spot.

I remember O talking about wanting to use a scalpel on the budget...not a hatchet.

OTOH, His current approach toward Egypt is more like a shotgun or perhaps grapeshot. Just send out all kinds of messages and something is bound hit.

BTW, Thune was stupid to be talking about ‘rifle-shot’ legislation back a month or so ago, what with the left freaking out so much.

Its imagery put out by the dems meant to cow conservatives and bring moderates back to the leftists fold by looking “strong.” Obama is a pansey, that is now well known, so now they are trying to have a manly leftist image. This is one more notch towards open undisguised fascism, as the Obama Regime continues to diminish our liberty and freedom daily. Sooner or later, the imagry they put out becomes “action.”

I see that the FCC has scheduled an internet wide “Presidential Alert” emergency test. Obama is letting us know as we continue to expose him that he will shut down the internet because of DHS “insurrection” law. Obama expects violence and wants it. Then he can use his emergency procedures, FEMA, martial law.Obama has a plan, and its anchor is the 2012 election. We need to get ahead of that plan, and attack him, COngress needs to investigate quickly, his qualification issue, and other fiascos, misuses of funds, breaking of treaties with allies without consulting Congress, whatever they can hang on this pansey Chicago fascist thug.

They truly are fascists, people have a difficult time facing this fact. Its true, the Obama Regime is fascist,
history defines them as such quite accurately. Our job is to throw them out any way we can, the sooner the better. Why wait for the election, we need to attack them! Impeach Holder and Obama.

Its also important to realize that the Obama Regime is fascist. This is because fascism requires a certain approach to defeat it as a movemet. Truth, Exposure, Riducule. We do not have the exposure ability because Obama controls the press.We have the truth and ridicule part down.
We need to attack Obama to expose him, the press will not, the Courts will not.

Obama should resign after his Cairo fiasco. What a horrible sight! A president of the United States demandinng the ouster of the head of state of a long time ally? I am surprised someone hasn’t jumped up out of the press pool and throttled him!

As to bazooka? Well I have one for the Dems.

Its right here in MPEG format.

i couldnt find the bwaney fank quotes anywhere in the story...8^}

bambam is taunting us...its a pussy at heart, but it has the controls of behemoth power...

remember when a young john conner realized that he had his own personal terminator to order around as he wished ??? he got the 'bullies' to quit pickin on him...

difference is that the fictional john had a heart that sought to help his fellow man...the emperor wannabe has only a lust for money and power, and to use them both to tickle his sad lil ego...its a dangerous thing, a lil man with powerful tools...

HEY Brother G!!!! Good to see ya!!! Yeah, well, I had to get a Barney reference in there...wouldn't be me if I didn't!!!! Speaking of bazookas...when I was a kid, I used to get these giant, heavy cardboard rolls from a dry cleaner store - they held plastic wrap that the cleaner used to put clothes in after being cleaned - we used to make bazookas out of those. Later on, we discoverd PVC, hairspray, Bic Lighters, and potatoes...and the "Potato Bazooka" was born. We terrorized the neighborhood with them for a bit, and then the cops showed up at our doors with the cease and desist or else speech...heheheh. But it was fun while it lasted, and the principle of rocket-propelled potatoes is very much alive and well in my old noggin... Ahhh...the good old days
