Hoffa: “No Regrets” Over Speech Calling For Violence Against Conservatives, This Is a “War”…
Weasel Zippers ^ | 9/5/11 | Zip

Posted on 09/05/2011 6:51:38 PM PDT by Nachum

Thug.

(TPM) — Teamsters union president James Hoffa would say it all again if he could, he told TPM Monday.

Hoffa riled up Fox News and the right wing Monday with a Labor Day speech in Detroit in which he called Republican members of Congress “sons of bitches” and said union workers are ready to “go to war” with the tea party next year and “take out” Republicans at the ballot box.

Hoffa said he’d say the exact same words all over again.

“I would because I believe it,” he said. “They’ve declared war on us. We didn’t declare war on them, they declared war on us. We’re fighting back. The question is, who started the war?”

Since he’s calling this a war, I’d be happy to have a chance piss on Hoffa’s coffin. Thanks Nachum.

Why have we been calling these union members “thugs” and “goons” who use “mob tactics?” It is because we have watched them beat, kick, intimidate and use other violent tactics against peaceful Tea Party citizens wishing to exercise their freedoms as guaranteed by the Constitution. The only constitution America’s unions know is when they say, “I must get to a toilet to do my daily constitution.” It is where they throw the U.S. Constitution and all effort for civil behavior.

I’ve been posting for years this is war. The Leftists, the “Progressives”, the Democrats declared war on us many, many years ago, and it’s about time we realized it, and started to fight back.

This is our country NOT the government’s. The government belongs to us not to the elitist Leftists, and RINO’s that participate in the government.

It’s long past time to kick some butt, and make them aware of who IS the boss around here.

Americans hate losers. It’s time to point out the winners, and the losers to the American people, and piss them off. Then, and only then will they get off their tails, and pay attention to winning back what was America.

See post 38 (misrepresented his remarks) BUT now this from Media Matters:

Fox Doctors Hoffa Speech To Fabricate Call For Violence

Full text and video here.

We like a good fight. And you know what, they got a war and they got a war with us and there’s only going to be one winner and it’s going to be the workers of Michigan and America. We’re going to win that war. All the way. But it starts with your involvement. It starts with next November. We got a bunch of people there that don’t want the president to succeed. And they’re called the tea party. The people that don’t want him to do anything right and he’s working hard for us. And president Obama is frustrated by what’s going on. Well guess what. We got the vote. And the answer what we say is, ‘we remember in November.’ We will beat the tea party and give this country back to workers and America. We can do it together. And we also gotta talk about jobs. I get so tired of these people who sit on these big corporations that send our jobs to Mexico. They send our jobs to China. And they have the audacity to say ‘where are the jobs?’ Well I got news for you It’s time to bring those jobs back to America and put America back to work. That’s what we’ve got to do.”

“We’re going to hear from President Obama in a few minutes. And I’m so glad he’s come to Michigan because this is where he sees the real America. He looks out on this army of people and you know what I say, ‘President Obama, this is your army. We are ready to march.’ And, President Obama we want one thing – jobs, jobs, jobs, jobs… That’s what we’re going to tell him. When he sees what we’re doing here he’s going to be inspired. But he needs help. And, you know what. Everybody here’s gotta vote. If we go back and keep the eye on the prize - Let’s take these sons a bitches out and give America back to America where we belong. Thank you very much.”

Then Dick mentions Rick Perry’s remarks calling Bernanke “treasonous.”

What’s wrong with that? I’m not a huge Perry fan, but I can agree with him on that.

I am sure Zer0 is going to reward his union campaign contributors with big infrastructure building contracts. This will guarantee that the Democratic Party gets more “pay for play money” at the expense of poor working slobs who have to pay union dues to get a job.

Of course it’s a war with thugs/gangs/collectives/socialists/progressives/marxists/communists/totalitarians. Always has been.

DEFUND their economy. The pricks will never hold elective office again. Bye, bye S.O.B.

Let’s get it on A-hole.

Your Unions aren’t doing that great any more. less and less people are joining up. Maybe you had better learn to count before you start a war.

How does a group as small as what was shown hope to “vote out” the Tea Party influence?

The thuggish language is at the end, out of the “voting” context.
