    Game On....

    Looks like instead of doing the Presidential thing and trying to defuse this situation, the White House has inflamed it by sending in the union thugs. Look for more trouble as this month wears on and I honestly believe that someone will be hurt if not worse before it's over.

    This is an early STORY, I'm sure we'll hear more tomorrow.

    Re: Game On....

    i don't know if ill be in town either, but i have spoken with a few friends that live in town and they see this as a way of getting her attention also...

    Diva here is a report on the AFL-CIO:

    Unions To Take On Conservative Groups Health Care Town Halls
    The nation's largest federation of labor organizations has promised to directly engage with boisterous conservative protesters at Democratic town halls during the August recess.

    In a memo sent out on Thursday, AFL-CIO President John Sweeney outlined the blueprint for how the union conglomerate would step up recess activities on health care reform and other topics pertinent to the labor community. The document makes clear that Obama allies view the town hall forums as ground zero of the health care debate. It also uses the specter of the infamous 2000 recount "Brooks Brothers" protest to rally its members to the administration's side.

    "The principal battleground in the campaign will be town hall meetings and other gatherings with members of Congress in their home districts," reads the memo. "We want your help to organize major union participation to counter the right-wing "Tea-Party Patriots" who will try to disrupt those meetings, as they've been trying to do to meetings for the last month. ...

    Unions To Take On Conservative Groups Health Care Town Halls
    I believe barry and the marxists want confrontation. a violent one.

    and when it starts , it's going to get ugly fast, and it could end up with some badddd things going on in the streets.

    Re: Game On....

    While I haven't followed Marcy Kaptur's political career closely, and while generally, what I did follow, led me to believe that she was a bit of a leftwing loon, I do have to say that I repeatedly saw her come out and speak against the Wall Street financial bailout.

    Whether she ultimately voted for or against it I can't say, but she does at least deserve some small amount of credit for having taken the position initially, when many others in Congress were licking their chops at the prospect of spending yet more of our money and plunging us further in debt.

    Re: Game On....

    And the hits keep on coming:

    http://stlouisteaparty.com/2009/08/0...han-town-hall/

    Email from eye witness and attorney confirms that SEIU-logo’d thugs attacked and beat a black man for distributing Gadsen flags following a Town Hall in St. Louis County on Thursday. Race was a factor in the beating.

    August 7, 2009

    Dear Mr. Hennessy:
    I am Kenneth Gladney’s attorney. Kenneth was attacked on the evening of August 6, 2009 at Rep. Russ Carnahan’s town hall meeting in South St. Louis County. I was at the town hall meeting as well and witnessed the events leading up to the attack of Kenneth. Kenneth was approached by an SEIU representative as Kenneth was handing out “Don’t Tread on Me” flags to other conservatives. The SEIU representative demanded to know why a black man was handing out these flags. The SEIU member used a racial slur against Kenneth, then punched him in the face. Kenneth fell to the ground. Another SEIU member yelled racial epithets at Kenneth as he kicked him in the head and back. Kenneth was also brutally attacked by one other male SEIU member and an unidentified woman. The three men were clearly SEIU members, as they were wearing T-shirts with the SEIU logo.
    Kenneth was beaten badly. One assailant fled on foot; three others were arrested. Kenneth was admitted to St. John’s Mercy Medical Center emergency room, where he was treated for his numerous injuries. Kenneth was merely expressing his freedom of speech by handing out the flags. In fact, he merely asked people as they exited the town hall meeting whether they would like a flag. He in no way provoked any argument or altercation, as evidenced by the fact that three assailants were arrested.
    We hope that Kenneth fully recovers from his injuries; however, he is in great pain at this time. We will be pursuing legal action at our discretion. This was a truly senseless hate crime carried out by racist union thugs. Regretfully, Representative Carnahan’s statements blaming Kenneth for being a disruptive force are wholly untrue and slanderous. We would like to think that an elected official in Representative Carnahan’s position would gather accurate information before carelessly rushing to judgment.
    Kenneth supports conservative ideals, although he subscribes to no particular political party. We are calling on the SEIU, Representative Carnahan, and President Obama to condemn the racist actions of these union thugs. In the days to come, we will be investigating whether these thugs are working at the behest of Representative Carnahan and how strong their alliances to various organizations–such as ACORN–may be.
    We hope the St. Louis Tea Party and tea party organizations around the country will protest Representative Carnahan’s offices and also protest SEIU offices in every major city across the U.S. These Democratic strong-arm tactics must end now.
    Regards,
    Attorney David B. Brown

    The St. Louis Tea Party coalition joins in the call for apologies from Carnahan, SEIU, and President Obama. This criminal attack was inspired by DNC and BarackObama.com propaganda. Only Thursday morning, the White House promised “punch back twice as hard.” Clearly, the goons of SEIU decided to draw the first blood.
    We believe that this attack was planned and intended to create a riot to discredit the American political resistence. Luckily, the patriots who attend tea parties and town halls did not take the bait. Mr. Gladney did not fight back. Mr. Gladney, like Crispus Attucks, suffered for the promise of freedom — the freedom his race was so long denied. We salute Kenneth Gladney. We are proud that he is on our side.
    We all pray for Ken. May he recover quickly and fully from his injuries inflicted by leftist thugs in an attempt to subvert his First Amendment rights.

    TELL THE SEIU THAT WE OPPOSE VIOLENCE

    All on the orders from the WH..........

    White House to Democrats: 'Punch back twice as hard'

    White House to Democrats: 'Punch back twice as hard' - Carrie Budoff Brown - POLITICO.com

    Top White House aides gave Senate Democrats a recess battle plan on Thursday, arming the lawmakers with tips for avoiding disastrous town hall meetings while showing them polling on popular aspects of the reform effort.

    Senior White House adviser David Axelrod and deputy chief of staff Jim Messina told senators to focus on the insured and how they would benefit from “consumer protections" in the overhaul, such as ending the practice of denying insurance based on preexisting conditions and ensuring the continuity of coverage between jobs.

    They showed video clips of the confrontational town halls that have dominated the media coverage, and told senators to do more prep work than usual for their public meetings by making sure their own supporters turn out, senators and aides said.

    And they screened TV ads and reviewed the various campaigns by critics of the Democratic plan.

    “If you get hit, we will punch back twice as hard,” Messina said, according to an official who attended the meeting.

    ...“They are just helping us understand the fringe that is trying to mess up our meetings,” said Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.).

    Re: Game On....

    Townhall in Tampa, Union Thugs at meeting, it got ugly-

    UPDATE 7:13pm

    Police on bullhorns are trying to break-up the crowd outside the building on 1002 E. Palm Ave.

    Many in the crowd are refusing to go.


    http://www.wtsp.com/news/local/story...111086&catid=8



    "SEIU & Castor (whose contributors are predominantly unions trial lawyers, teamsters etc] organize (pay to play) a townhall and announce it at the last minute as to reduce opposition voices.
    Never the less, the word gets out at the last minute to citizen-led, unfunded grassroots organizations like 9-12 meetup group. Citizens opposed to government-run healthcare gather at the last minute to have their voices heard.

    Exactly what Castor and SEIU did not want.

    Inside, the townhall seated are mostly union members/supporters/people - yet seats remain empty. Hundreds of citizens outside. And yet public is not allowed in.

    Castor makes speech turns it over to panel. Soon leaves.

    People were prevented access inside to the meeting. Because of this apparent denial of free speech and bias -- and the seemingly blatant sham of a 'townhall' -- many began to shout, some banged windows & doors."

    "I was there. It was not a "town hall meeting". It was a private event by SEIU to push the agenda and giving it great media coverage under the guise of a public meeting. When the doors to the auditorium finally opened there were about 150 people already filling the 235 seats. If it truly were a public meeting it would have been held in a larger venue. The 85 or so seats open for the public were tokens for show. The rest were filled with SEIU, ACORN, union, and Democratic Party faithful.

    I was 6 people behind the cut off and never made it in. It was truly disheartning and even embarassing to have all the shouting and disruption. I would have liked to have heard what was said. I could see it was getting ugly and started moving away from the open doors just before they were closed."
    "I was there... We showed up at 6 and were told by friends that Representative Castor hosted a private event before the scheduled town hall with 175 SEIU union members who were assigned seats in the front of the hall for the meeting which left space for only @ 75 more people....and individuals wearing Obama gear were ushered to the front of the line and then the doors were shut. Free speech and Democracy were reprehensibly railroaded tonight..."

    Re: Game On....

    This is from another board i go to. I said earlier that i think barry is looking for confrontation, and if it is violet, so be it.. this guy also sees that:

    Inside the Tampa Bay "Townhall" - looks like some Patriots got into the meeting:

    YouTube - Tampa town hall meeting with Kathy Castor

    Notice is the comment section on the Youtube page.

    Those comments are illustrative of why the coming conflict may make the Civil war look like a picnic in comparison.

    We waited too long to mitigate the amount of bloodshed all of this is going to engender.

    Of course, this is what the Marxists want. They cannot call out the troops and lock it all down without a 'crisis' - and they have manufactured this one very well - and much faster than I ever thought possible.
    It would do us all well to understand that the Marxists, this government tyranny and their supporting thugs view us no differently than Reno and the ATF did the Branch Davidians, and will do likewise to us, if not worse.

    At least you know where to operate from, and this is vital to understand.

    For the Founders, upon signing the Declaration, knew and understood they just signed their death warrants, because they knew the Crown would persecute them as rebels, terrorists and criminals.

    They knew they would get no reprieve or justice from the Authorities.

    They knew they were at war against a tyranny.

    They knew if caught, they would be tried with no justice and executed.

    They knew they would be hunted and arrested or killed on sight.


    As long as we count the cost and know that our death warrants have been signed by resisting this tyranny - we stand in the shadow of our Founders and we carry the cause of righteousness and liberty in our bosom.
