Over at NRO, Jay Nordlinger makes an incredibly good point: Barack Obama should be urging calm in Wisconsin, no matter WHAT side of the underlying issue he is on. It is not just unpresidential of him, but despicable, for him in effect to be urging on the mass demonstrations.
But as J. Christian Adams, Justice Department whistle-blower extraordinaire, reminded me in an email accompanying this post of his, these are not only the tactics always favored by the left in general, but specifically the sorts of tactics Obama himself was trained in -- AND exactly what I myself warned about (as Christian reminded me) in my very first post-presidential election column in 2008.

2 more years of this. Ughh!
The up rising against the government may not be what he had hoped for in this country.
Government Greed vs. The people in need. Government ee’s have to pay their fair share.
A Tea Party Posse should be formed to protect our representatives homes from these communist mobs.
He is trying to collapse the nation.
Seriously, as chief law enforcement officer, Obama is doing exactly the opposite of what his duties as president are.
So where is the Tea Party??
Huh? You don’t really think that after we defeat Obama that the Genie will just go back in the bottle and we all can go back to playing nicely again, do you?
This isn’t about one man, and no, these people are not just going to go away. The organizations that are using the teachers and other union members to foment these demonstrations are all about protecting the power that they have already and to take any additional leverage they can get to remain in control. They have been doing this very thing for nearly 100 years and doing it pretty damn well judging by results. Who do you think has more experience here, us or them?
This isn’t about teacher’s health insurance, it’s about power. The voters of WI made a pretty clear statement in November about the direction that they wanted their state to take. You don’t think that these thugs are going to allow a little thing like an election to stand in their way do you?
Obama is only important to their cause as a tool to be used for what benefit he can provide then he too will be consumed by the “mobs”.
That sounds good, count me in. I do need to know how to keep my money out of the hands of Government though, so as to prevent them from seizing it.
Government provides one, and only one function in any form of society, force.
First and foremost, Government’s only function, provide force where required in order for compliance to be achieved.
You and I may talk about what we will do and what we will not do when required by our Government. We have no power to thwart the force that will directed against us should we run afoul of it’s wishes. That is unless we are talking about armed insurrection. Is anyone really ready for that?
Normally in a communist state there is a thriving Black Market.
Stock up on anti-riot medication now.
The worse things look for “The One” in 2012, the more likely it is that he will instigate nation wide, violent riots, and then position himself as the only person who can stop them.
BO/BS will do anything to keep the socialist/communist agenda moving forward.
Don’t let him make you sick. Relax; let your blood pressure have a rest. - One day, he’ll be gone, and if you don’t take care of yourself, you’ll still be sick. He’ll still be eating ice cream, enjoying the perks of being a former President, and you’ll be sick.
Wisconsin is the third sovereign state on which his Zero-ness and the Federal government have openly declared war—Arizona and Louisiana being the first and second, respectively.
Any protest across the country regarding budget cuts should be scrutinized as community organizing initiated by Obama, OFA, and his progressive machine.
There is a rally tomorrow in support of our Governor: http://www.facebook.com/#!/event.php?eid=142039272524888
