Despite President Obama’s repeated claims to change the tone in Washington, the White House has no comment this afternoon on incendiary statements made by a union leader who spoke before the president at today’s Labor Day rally. Warming up the crowd before President Obama’s speech in Detroit this afternoon, Teamsters President Jimmy Hoffa, Jr. warned the largely-union crowd that the Tea Party was waging a “war on workers” and said that, come November, they should “take these sons of bitches out.” “We got to keep an eye on the battle that we face: The war on workers. And you see it everywhere, it is the Tea Party. And you know, there is only one way to beat and win that war. The one thing about working people is we like a good fight. And you know what? They’ve got a war, they got a war with us and there’s only going to be one winner. It’s going to be the workers of Michigan, and America. We’re going to win that war,” Hoffa told thousands of workers gathered for the annual event organized by the Detroit Labor Council. “President Obama, this is your army. We are ready to march… Let’s take these sons of bitches out and give America back to an America where we belong,” he concluded.

Yep, whatever happened to the lessons of Tucson????
Or do the lessons of Tucson only apply to Republicans? Apparently those using incendiary rhetoric in support of liberal causes get an exemption from the lessons of Tucson.
You betcha! Mr. “get in their faces” pos poser will have no comment regarding his ugly calls for violence along with his union thugs calls to violence today. But he’ll scream like a little girl if conservatives say anything like what was said at the union party today.
ABC News?
The media would be at red alert Defcon 1 had something like this been said at a Republican rally and subsequently dismissed with a no comment.
We need to call for Obuggery’s resignation.
What would Gabby say?
I’m shocked I tell you, SHOCKED!
On the web, ABC and FOX are the only networks even mentioning Hoffa’s remarks. I assume the others are censoring this on their ‘news programs’ too.
Good...I am livid over this blatant war-mongering on the American people by this President and his party. We had the black caucus members out all last week trying to incite mob violence. We have ‘flash mobs’ beating up white people all across the country...and nothing!
THIS IS NOT HOW A PRESIDENT IS SUPPOSE TO ACT!
IMPEACH THE US POTENTATE!
The MSM doesn’t want to call this “violent rhetoric” I see.
SILENCE IS CONSENT...
SILENCE IS CONSENT...
Hoffa should resign. We don’t need to call for civil war in this climate.
Pray for America
my first thought as well...we are at the point in time with See BS covering fast & furious as they are and now this, the criminal liberal media is even finding it impossible to cover for the liar and hypocrite in the WH..
I think it was “let’s take out these sons of bitches” not just ‘take them’
“We need to call for Obuggery’s resignation.”
We could always start a petition at the new WH site called We The People. It’s open to anyone over the age of 13 dontchaknow. /s
The commie union thugs have declared war on America. I bet it was someting in that pizza that Al Qaeda bought them when they were protesting in Madison. You can bet I’ll be letting my representative and Senators know about this.
“To sin by silence when they should protest makes cowards of men.” -
— Abraham Lincoln
Surprisingly enough, ABC’s piece is not uncritical. Read their account and you know he’s a hypocritical, lying dork.
