RNC ad links Obama to 'union bosses'
Google News/AP ^ | AP

Posted on 03/02/2011 8:45:43 PM PST by Innovative

The Republican National Committee on Wednesday began airing a television ad in Wisconsin that blames President Barack Obama and "union bosses" for standing in the way of economic reform.

The ad is an effort to bolster Republican Gov. Scott Walker as he tries to push through a measure that would take away most collective bargaining rights for state employees.

Obama has not been to Wisconsin since the protests began. But he has called Walker's proposal an assault on unions and urged other governors not to vilify public workers. Obama's political arm at the Democratic National Committee also helped mobilize demonstrators in coordination with unions.

The ad also shows headlines that say unions spent $400 million to elect Obama in 2008 and another $280 million to help elect Democratic candidates last year.

Dear DNC, Union Thugs, and Obama,

Let’s wind the clocks back a year. These Republicans and talking heads wouldn’t dare cross any of you. I mean, what happened? Did, did your balls drop off? Hmmmm?

Look, listen. I know why you choose to have your little…group therapy sessions in broad daylight. I know why you’re afraid to go out at night…The Saracuda. See, Sarahcuda has shown Gotham your true colors, unfortunately.

Bachmann? Rush? Walker? They’re just the beginning.

....Joker

Initially I had the same reaction -- why use the "Separated at birth" Hitler picture -- BUT then I watched the ad a few more times and then you can see that the left hand side of the screen, where this appeared showed the UNION thug demonstrators, the next frame shows placards, such as "Why do Republicans hate people"

I think the Hitler picture is a placard held up by the pro-Union demonstrators, they put a Hitler mustage on Gov. Scott Walker!.

With all due reluctance, I must give it a D.

The they made the mess and we have to clean it up is practically a quote from Obama's lies about US.

Come on RNC, USE YOUR WORDS for pity sake!

The underlying intent of ObamaCare, Cap-and-Trade, Financial Regulation and the Stimulus is create huge new bureaucracies that can be unionized. After pricing themselves out of the private sector, the last hope of unions is expanded government.

Also Wednesday, the liberal groups Progressive Change Campaign Committee and Democracy for America released a new TV ad in Wisconsin accusing Walker of launching a "Republican war on working families."

Democracy for America was linked from the Communist Party's website.

ad content could have included Trumpka bragging about his daily conversations with the White House. Instead we get a video produced by MTV.

Mr Priebus won’t get the donations if he can’t get a video made taking advantage of the thuggery seen in Madison. See thug push tea party guy, see Trumpka refuse to denounce thug, see ?
