Video: The Machine – The truth behind teachers unions

The teacher’s union, the biggest racket around.

Sep 4, 2012 by ReasonTV – America’s public education system is failing. We’re spending more money on education but not getting better results for our children.

That’s because the machine that runs the K-12 education system isn’t designed to produce better schools. It’s designed to produce more money for unions and more donations for politicians.

For decades, teachers’ unions have been among our nation’s largest political donors. As Reason Foundation’s Lisa Snell has noted, the National Education Association (NEA) alone spent $40 million on the 2010 election cycle (source: http://reason.org/news/printer/big-education-and-big-labor-electio). As the country’s largest teachers union, the NEA is only one cog in the infernal machine that robs parents of their tax dollars and students of their futures.

Students, teachers, parents, and hardworking Americans are all victims of this political machine–a system that takes money out of taxpayers’ wallets and gives it to union bosses, who put it in the pockets of politicians.

Our kids deserve better.

Video: Union boss violence and intimidation

Obama’s brownshirts in action.

The Blaze – Workforce Fairness Institute, an organization focused on employee/management relations, is releasing a series of videos chronicling left-wing intimidation, including tactic of “showing up at people’s houses to harass them and their families,” according to Erick Erickson of RedState.

“The videos document a growing trend in American civic discourse — the use of intimidation against private citizens to punish dissent,” Erickson adds.

And the video makes a fairly compelling case. So compelling, in fact, that conservative talk show host Rush Limbaugh tweeted the following:

American Airlines grounded, files for Ch. 11 protection

The unions destroy yet another American icon. American says labor-contract rules force it to spend at least $600 million more than other airlines. Obama’s energy policies only added to their difficulties, as jet fuel cost an average of $3 per gallon so far this year — a record according to government data that goes back to 1990.

FORT WORTH, Texas (AP) — American Airlines’ parent company is seeking Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection as it seeks to unload massive debt built up by years of accelerating jet fuel prices and labor struggles.

The nation’s third largest airline also said its CEO Gerard Arpey will step down. He’s being replaced by Thomas Horton, currently the company’s president.

Fort Worth, Texas-based AMR Corp., along with its regional affiliate AMR Eagle Holding Corp. said Tuesday that they filed voluntary petitions to reorganize.

American says it sought protection to reduce its costs and debt to remain competitive.

The airline says it will continue normal flight operations during the reorganization.

American was the only major U.S. airline that didn’t file for bankruptcy protection after the 2001 terrorist attacks. The last major airline to file for bankruptcy protection was Delta in 2005.

American says labor-contract rules force it to spend at least $600 million more than other airlines.

Besides higher labor costs, American also struggled with rising jet fuel costs. Jet fuel cost an average of $3 per gallon so far this year — a record according to government data that goes back to 1990. Jet fuel is more expensive now than the average of $2.96 per gallon in 2008, when oil rose above $147 per barrel for the first time. It’s risen 56.4 percent in the past five years. The average price of jet fuel was $1.92 per gallon in 2006.

Longshoreman thug goes berserk, Eric Hoffer he’s not

This occurred just a day after union thug Jimmy Hoffa Jr. exhorted union members to ‘take these sons of bitches out’.

This foul-mouthed thug exemplifies the best worst of the stinking glorious unions. There are non-stop f-bombs, so if you find that offensive, don’t watch.

Well, Eric Hoffer he’s not.

'Longshoreman Philosopher' Eric Hoffer

Don’t know who Eric Hoffer is? He was also known as the ‘Longshoreman Philosopher‘. Hoffer was easily one of the most original and prescient thinkers of his day. He was America, and America’s greatest patriot. Ronald Reagan awarded Hoffer the Presidential Medal of Freedom.

If you want to understand our times today, just read his short little books. They are all modern classics: ‘The True Believer,’ ‘The Passionate State Of Mind, and Other Aphorisms,’ ‘The Ordeal of Change,’ ‘The Temper Of Our Time,’ ‘Working And Thinking on The Waterfront; a Journal,’ etc…

Check him out. You won’t be sorry.

Here’s an example of Eric Hoffer’s prescience. This was part of a short piece he did for the Los Angeles Times back in 1968, 43 years ago:

      “The Jews are a peculiar people: things permitted to other nations are forbidden to the Jews. [...] Other nations when victorious on the battlefield dictate peace terms. But when Israel is victorious, it must sue for peace. Everyone expects the Jews to be the only real Christians in this world.

[...] No commitment to the Jews by any government, including our own, is worth the paper it is written on … We can rely more on Israel than Israel can rely on us.

[...] The Jews are alone in the world. If Israel survives, it will be solely because of Jewish efforts. And Jewish resources. Yet at this moment Israel is our only reliable and unconditional ally. We can rely more on Israel than Israel can rely on us.

I have the premonition that will not leave me: as it goes for Israel so will it go with all of us. Should Israel Perish, the holocaust will be upon us.”

Chief union thug Jimmy Hoffa on Tea Party: “Let’s take these sons of bitches out!”

This was Obama’s warm-up act before his Labor Day speech in Detroit. It’s crystal clear that from all quarters of the radical Democrat Party that they want to see America burn. Last week it was the Congressional Black Caucas. Every Democrat leader is upping their rhetoric as Obama sits smirking in the background.

“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.”

And here is the moronic Joe Biden adding his two bits.

Greek unions to unplug Greece and leave it in the dark

Leftist jackboots coming to a neck near you.

Greece is about to suffer major blackouts thanks to the powerful unions in that socialist basket case of a country.

No doubt their Leftist and anarchist allies will use the resulting chaos and social dislocations to forward their cause.

In time, all of Europe and the U.S., too, will be at the mercy of jackbooted union thugs, the leadership of whom are mostly committed communists.

Business Insider - Here comes more economic destruction in Greece, courtesy of the powerful power industry workers union.

Starting Monday, workers at the Public Power Corporation — which is slated to be privatized — will begin 48 hours of rolling strikes designed to create blackouts, according to Kathimerini

The strikes come about two weeks before expected legislation on the PPC privatization.

Meanwhile, there’s still no hard deal in Greece, just more commitments and supports and efforts at averting catastrophe.

Sen. Jim DeMint – Obama regime “a bunch of thugs”

Sen. Jim DeMint (R-SC) spoke out about the outrageous move by the Obama regime that seeks to force Boeing to bring an airplane production line back to its unionized facilities in Washington State instead of moving the work to a nonunion plant in South Carolina.

Boing prefers to avoid the inevitable disaster that comes with trying to run a company that is at the mercy of union workers, who must walk in lock step with their communist overlords.

“I thought I’ve seen all, but now this administration is acting like a bunch of thugs. I mean they really are trying to bully and intimidate, not just Boeing, they are attacking every right to work state.” 

The Obama regime is essentially telling Boeing that it is up to the federal government, and the government alone, to decide where a corporation gets to put its production lines.

I don’t know what it will take before Republicans and right-of-center commentators quit with the political correctness and just admit to the country that Obama and his entire administration are nothing but a bunch of radical socialists. So far, there is only one man who possesses those kinds of guts.

You can hear the whole interview with DeMint at Real Clear Politics.

NY Slimes - In what may be the strongest signal yet of the new pro-labor orientation of theNational Labor Relations Board under President Obama, the agency filed a complaint Wednesday seeking to force Boeing to bring an airplane production line back to its unionized facilities in Washington State instead of moving the work to a nonunion plant in South Carolina.

In its complaint, the labor board said that Boeing’s decision to transfer a second production line for its new 787 Dreamliner passenger plane to South Carolina was motivated by an unlawful desire to retaliate against union workers for their past strikes in Washington and to discourage future strikes. The agency’s acting general counsel, Lafe Solomon, said it was illegal for companies to take actions in retaliation against workers for exercising the right to strike.

Although manufacturers have long moved plants to nonunion states, the board noted that Boeing officials had, in internal documents and news interviews, specifically cited the strikes and potential future strikes as a reason for their 2009 decision to expand in South Carolina.

Boeing said it would “vigorously contest” the labor board’s complaint. “This claim is legally frivolous and represents a radical departure from both N.L.R.B. and Supreme Court precedent,” said J. Michael Luttig, a Boeing executive vice president and its general counsel. “Boeing has every right under both federal law and its collective bargaining agreement to build additional U.S. production capacity outside of the Puget Sound region.”

It is highly unusual for the federal government to seek to reverse a corporate decision as important as the location of plant.

But ever since a Democratic majority took control of the five-member board after Mr. Obama’s election, the board has signaled that it would seek to adopt a more liberal, pro-union tilt after years of pro-employer decisions under President Bush.

Palin, Breitbart heat up Madison Tea Party

Sarah Palin and Andrew Breitbart turned frigid Madison, WI into a pot of steaming Tea Party yesterday. Union thugs surrounded the Tea Party and tried to drum them into silence, but failed.

As Gateway Pundit wrote, “During his introduction of Sarah Palin, Andrew took on the vile Trumka-Obama leftists who came out to taunt the tea partiers. Andrew told them that they could, “Go to hell! Go to hell!” for having the audacity to lecture the tea party about civility after the death threats and thuggery displayed in Wisconsin last month.”

Afterwards, Breitbart wrote at Biggovernment.com.

“The TV cameras showing the speech caught little of this phalanx of thugs that we had to walk through. Middle fingers flew and the trendy talking point insult of “Koch Suckers!” was everywhere. Sarah Palin was called names that made me wonder if Bill Maher was writing for this mob. Apparently, women-hating sexual mockery is acceptable if directed at the right, even if that woman’s children are present.”

Sarah flung a lot of zingers. She told the GOP leadership that “they need to learn to fight like a girl.” And that, “The only thing that stimulus stimulated was a debt crisis and a tea party.” Obama is “shouting all aboard the bullet train to bankruptcy,” and that “we will fight for America and it starts here in Madison, Wisconsin. Mr. President, game on!”

Here’s Andrew telling the Trumka troglodytes to go to hell.

Here is part of Sarah Palin’s speech.

Caught on tape: The Leftist coalition’s plan to destroy America

If this doesn’t prove to you that Unions, Leftist “community organizers” and Liberals who support them aren’t a bunch of 5th Column Communists and radicals then we are truly doomed.

There are more groups and individuals in America who profoundly hate their country than we ever want to believe. Scarier still, a whole mess of people in Washington sympathize with them.

The Blaze – Revealed: The Left’s Economic Terrorism Playbook: The Chase Campaign By A Coalition Of Unions, Community Groups, Lawmakers And Students To Take Down Us Capitalism And Redistribute Wealth & Power

Business Insider (via Weasel Zippers)  -  A former official of one of the country’s most-powerful unions, SEIU, is detailing a secret plan to “destabilize” the country.

Specifically, the plan seeks to destroy JP Morgan, nuke the stock market, and weaken Wall Street’s grip on power, thus creating the conditions necessary for a redistribution of wealth and a change in government.

Cloward-Piven Strategy. Look it up.

 

The former SEIU official, Stephen Lerner, spoke in a closed session at a Pace University forum last weekend.

The Blaze procured what appears to be a tape of Lerner’s remarks. Many Americans will undoubtely sympathize with and support them. Still, the “destabilization” plan is startling in its specificity, especially coming so close on the heels of the financial crisis.

Lerner said that unions and community organizations are, for all intents and purposes, dead. The only way to achieve their goals, therefore–the redistribution of wealth and the return of “$17 trillion” stolen from the middle class by Wall Street–is to “destabilize the country.”

Lerner’s plan is to organize a mass, coordinated “strike” on mortgage, student loan, and local government debt payments–thus bringing the banks to the edge of insolvency and forcing them to renegotiate the terms of the loans.  This destabilization and turmoil, Lerner hopes, will also crash the stock market, isolating the banking class and allowing for a transfer of power.

Lerner’s plan starts by attacking JP Morgan Chase in early May, with demonstrations on Wall Street, protests at the annual shareholder meeting, and then calls for a coordinated mortgage strike.

Leftist twitter mania calls for the killing of Madison Republicans

Leftists thrive on chaos. It’s what they live for. They are really enjoying trashing the Madison capital, bullying, threatening, and turning citizen against citizen. Liberalism disrobed.

Here are a bunch of tweets that have been made threatening, even demanding, the violent death of government officials, and especially Governor Scott Walker.

One must wonder why these people think they can get away with such public declarations. They must know that they have a good friend in the White House and Justice Department. People who are every bit as violence-loving as they.

Youtube will probably take down this video soon, just as they did a similar one displaying all the tweets threatening Sarah Palin.

Demobocrats in Madison threaten, behave like animals after passing of amended bill

Wisconsin Republicans passed an amended budget-repair bill by an 18–1 vote in the state senate. Immediately afterwards Democrats went insane and mobbed the capital building, threatened the lives of elected officials, and forced Republicans to flee the city in fear of their lives.

This is Liberalism unmasked. The Obama state-run media won’t reveal a fraction of what is going on, but the truth will win out in the end.

Should any harm come to any person in Madison at the hands of these Leftist thugs, Michael Moore, who publicly called for war, should be held responsible, as should the unions, and Barack Obama who is supporting all these Leftists behind the scene.

“I just want to say anybody who lives within driving distance of Madison, Wisconsin right now should make their way to the capitol. I would love to see thousands of people there right now, in that capitol building, in the rotunda, on the lawn, whatever it takes. Really, this is really — this is war. This is a class war.”  — Michael Moore

The Republicans tried to get out of the building after the vote, but because the radicals were rushing the chamber they were escorted by security through a tunnel system to another building. But, a Democrat tipped off the radicals, and so the Republicans were attacked as they tried to drive away.

NRO – [...]  Senate Republicans were harried by swarming crowds. “We tried to get out of the building after the vote, because they were rushing the chamber, and we were escorted by security through a tunnel system to another building. But, after being tipped off by a Democrat, they mobbed the exit at that building, and were literally trying to break the windows of the cars we were in as we were driving away,” Republican senator Randy Hopper tells NRO. Such tactics, he sighs, were hardly unexpected. “I got a phone call yesterday saying that we should be executed. I’ve had messages saying that they want to beat me with a billy club.” (more >>)

Here’s a video made by some self-righteous radical in which you are supposed to be indignant at how the State Troopers blocked the entrances. Instead, it shows what a bunch of radical scum the so-called protestors are.

Here are Republican lawmakers having to flee for their lives in a bus because the radicals were on the verge of violence.

Lovely. Well, this is just the beginning. Michael Moore is serious about his call for “war”. This is the Leftist mentality. This is the mentality of the President of the United States who, you ought to recall, called for such tactics.

* Obama: “They Bring a Knife…We Bring a Gun”
* Obama to His Followers: “Get in Their Faces!”
* Obama on ACORN Mobs: “I don’t want to quell anger. I think people are right to be angry! I’m angry!”
* Obama to His Mercenary Army: “Hit Back Twice As Hard”
* Obama on the private sector: “We talk to these folks… so I know whose ass to kick.“
* Obama to voters: Republican victory would mean “hand to hand combat”
* Obama to lib supporters: “It’s time to Fight for it.”
* Obama to Latino supporters: “Punish your enemies.”
* Obama to democrats: “I’m itching for a fight.”

Big Unions, Big Money, Big Payback

The Workforce Fairness Institute (WFI) launched a new web video demonstrating how tight the relationship between labor bosses and the Obama Administration really is.

Teachers Unions explained

A supporter of the teachers unions is questioned about her belief that the unions need more money and power.

Another great one from Battlefield 315

Collective Bargaining 101

The Heritage Foundation posted a very good video explaining the basics of collective bargaining. It’s short (2:22 minutes), and worth watching.

From The Foundry blog

Our new video is a helpful primer on the rise government unions and the monopoly power given to them through collective bargaining. Along with our helpful factsheet on the subject, they form a powerful tool to combat misinformation and educate friends and family about what is at stake in Wisconsin.

It will cost up to $7.5 million to clean after protest “slobs”

Liberals destroy everything they touch. It’s just who they are.

State officials today announced that it could cost up to $7.5 million to clean up after the leftist protesters in Madison.

Tea Partiers have respect for property and America. Tea Party rallies always cleaned up after themselves. Even after the biggest of the rallies, they left the grounds nearly spotless.

Not so with Liberals and union thugs. They are pigs.

(h/t Gateway Pundit)

FOX6 Now - It could cost as much as $7.5 million to repair damage protesters have done to the Capitol Building marble say officials in Madison. Fixing posters to the marble with tape and glue appears to have done the bulk of the damage.

During testimony Thursday, a representative from the Attorney General’s office said a contractor estimated it would cost $500,000 to remove all of the posters and garbage.

He says it would cost $6 million to restore the marble inside of the Capitol building and another $1 million to touch up the marble outside of the building.

Officials with the Department of Administration say the marble must be restored immediately. They say normally, tape isn’t used on the walls of the Capitol by rule because of the historic nature of the building. Easels are normally used for signs.

Public Sector Unions vs. America

You got that right!

Madison mayhem roundup

Stinky, hippy throw-backs in a Madison “Cuddle Puddle”.

Here’s a roundup of some of the stories, photos, and video of the Leftist lunacy that has been masquerading as patriotic democracy in Madison, WI and around the country.

First, read Michelle Malkin’s “Hate-a-rama: The vulgar, racist, sexist, homophobic rage of the Left” where Michelle “does the reporting the Tea Party-bashing national media won’t do on the rabid outbreak of progressive incivility and violence at Big Labor protests across the country.” It begins:

Barack Obama’s new era of civility was over before it began. You wouldn’t know it from reading The New York Times, watching Katie Couric or listening to the Democratic manners police. But America has been overrun by foul-mouthed, fist-clenching wildebeests.

Yes, the tea party movement is responsible — for sending these liberal goons into an insane rage, that is. After enduring two years of false smears as sexist, racist, homophobic barbarians, it is grassroots conservatives and taxpayer advocates who have been ceaselessly subjected to rhetorical projectile vomit. It is Obama’s rank-and-file “community organizers” on the streets fomenting the hate against their political enemies. Not the other way around.  (more >>)

Next, head over to the Daily Caller where John Rossomando reports on all the communists and socialists who are rallying behind the unions. It seems to answer the question, ‘If teachers are back in class, who is making all the noise?’

Communist and socialist groups — including the Maoist Revolutionary Communist Party, the Communist Party USA, Trotskyist Socialist Workers Party and the Democratic Socialists of America — are voicing their support for the public-sector unions protesting Wisconsin Republican Gov. Scott Walker’s plans to curtail their collective bargaining abilities.

The communist and socialist groups have parroted many of the union talking points being used by the unions on their websites and in their publications, such as those accusing the governor of trying to break their unions. They have also compared Walker to former Egyptian dictator Hosni Mubarak. (more >>)

Gateway Pundit has lots of video and links in his post, ‘24 Hours of Hate‘. More examples of union thuggery from GWP here and here.

And finally, the Heritage Foundation and Reason.tv have put up a good story that sanely explains what governors around the country are trying to do, and the fiscal reality that Democrat socialists refuse to acknowledge.

Wisconsin Union Protest: Myth vs. Fact

The Heritage Foundation put together the below video to help separate fact from myth. The video is short and well done.

Heritage visited the capitol to see what was on the minds of the unions and teachers. The protestors are clearly clueless about the bill and the state of the Wisconsin economy. All they know is what they have been fed by their unions and the Obama propaganda machine.

Heritage writes:

The day revealed the extent of the ideological divide that seems to characterize this debate — and the lack of consensus about the underlying facts that necessitate it in the first place.

Few protesters we spoke to knew Wisconsin has a deficit of $137 million — a deficit projected to increase to $3.6 billion in the next two years. Fewer still seemed to realize just how generous public worker benefits in Wisconsin are — far more generous than the national average.

Dispute also existed as to whether union membership is currently optional for public workers in Wisconsin (it’s not), even though most protesters seemed to think it should be optional.

But the protests seem to have done even more than expose ideological fault lines and a lack of mutual understanding of the facts.

Tea Party calvary to the rescue in Madison

Thousands of Tea Party Americans blew into Madison, WI to lend moral support to Gov. Scott Walker and his fellow Republicans. Until now, Obama’s storm troopers have had the run of the capital yelling slogans and parading about with signs that refer to Scott Walker as Hitler, Mussolini, and Egypt’s ousted Hosni Mubarak.

Although far outnumbered by the hoards of union people who came to heed the call of socialism to which they are so enamored, the Tea Party calvary made a significant stand and sent a powerful message not only to Gov. Walker to stay strong, but to other Tea Party groups around the country to prepare and mobilize, because Wisconsin is headed their way, too.

Daily Caller reports on some of the influential Tea Party people who answered the call of duty.

Likely 2012 presidential candidate Herman Cain, local Madison and Milwaukee conservative radio host Vicki McKenna, Gateway Pundit blogger Jim Hoff, Samuel “Joe the Plumber” Wurzelbacher and conservative media guru Andrew Breitbart each took their shots at the union bosses who were gathering their supporters on the other side of the state capitol building.

Andrew Breitbart, a favorite of Tea Party people everywhere, did what he does best – calling out Liberal hypocrisy and reminding the right that the left is wrong, and the right is right. Especially so when it comes to the shameless, infantile behavior of Wisconsin Democrat officials and the unions who prop them up.

Breitbart also found himself coming down with a case of ‘Walker Pneumonia’ and was able to get one of a number of licensed Democrat doctors to falsify that he was sick and so could ‘legitimately’ miss work.

Liberals are perfectly fine with having tax payers compensate them while they are out fomenting socialism. It’s for the children, of course.

There’s no telling how long the children will be out of school, or how long the parents of the children will have to find ways to take care of them while they have to work for a living. How much will baby sitters and child care end up costing the parents?

As Professor Jacobson writes, “We have seen the future of the health care system, and it is the doctors on the streets of Madison, Wisconsin.”

For a good sampling of photos of Obamatron hate and hypocrisy, visit Michelle Malkin here. See with your own eyes how well the promised “new tone” of “civility” was absorbed by Liberals.

Unions own the Democrat party. Democrats receive tens of millions of dollars from unions. The sickest part about it, is that it is the private sector, the average Joe and Jane who doesn’t make nearly what union people do, or get half the benefits, that is ultimately funding the unions who pass it on to the Democrats in a sordid circle of corruption. In short, non-union Americans are paying the Democrat party to screw them over.

Unlike the union thugs, the Tea Party had to organize on the fly, and they seem to have done very well. As many as 15,000 Tea Party people are said to have rushed to the rescue of Scott Walker and freedom-loving Wisconsinites. The word is no doubt speeding through the ranks of hundreds of Tea Party groups big and small around the country, providing them with a heads up to what is coming their way.

For decades unions and Marxist “community organizers” like Barack Obama have been able to bully or cajole good-hearted Americans into backing their phony lie-infested assertions.

Those days are over.

The events unravelling in Madison are going to have far-reaching repercussions. Not just for Democrats on the local level, but for the Community Organizer-in-Chief, Barack Obama, who has not only sided with the renegade Democrats, but who is materially backing them through his myriad of shell organizations that he supports.

Scott Walker will win this battle, but by doing so it will only enrage Liberals all the more. The socialists know that it is now or never for them. They will not get another chance. They and Obama will not back down, will not change course. It is all or nothing, and they won’t care who gets hurt in the process. For Liberals, the ends ALWAYS justifies the means.

Tea Party people know this, unlike Republicans in congress who still haven’t figured out who Barack Obama really is and what kind of people and ideas he represents. The Tea Party has been quiet since the November election, but that’s only because they have been busy doing their homework. Over the coming year, America will learn just how savvy the Tea Party really is.

Madison mayhem is all about Obama

The mayhem in Madison is just the opening salvo of what is to come over the next couple of years. The socialists mean business, and Republicans, conservatives, and Tea Party people had better prepare themselves for an all out assault. It’s hard ball from here on out.

The Washington Times put it this way:

“Message to Wisconsin taxpayers: President Obama and the Democratic National Committee have declared war on you. Message to other states: You’re next.”

Obama has been looking for this battle his entire adult life, such as a man-child can have an adult life. It is the only sort of war he is willing to fight; the only kind of thing that will keep him off the golf course.

America is already a divided country, but the width of the fissure is only going to grow as both states and the federal government battle it out over budget deficits. The tectonic plates, one red, the other blue, move farther apart every week. Each side accuses the other of intransigence, but only the blue plate has to lie and make up stories to back up their accusations.

Liberal crybabies

This is all good. It is battle that must be fought. America is flat broke. Most states are on the verge of bankruptcy. Democrats can whine all they want, but sooner or later they have to face reality: there is no more money.

Democrats, however, are governed by fantasy. The last thing they ever want to face is reality, and so they will do whatever it takes to try and convince the nation that fiscal suicide is “for the kids!”.

Unfortunately for them, a majority of Americans have awoken from their deep slumber and are wise to the Democrat’s game. People are sick and tired of being bullied by insincere, meaningless platitudes. Right now Tea Party people are mobilizing to counter-protest the thugish, infantile unions and Obamacrats. As Daily Caller reports:

Tea Party leaders are organizing a counter-rally in Madison, Wisc. to support newly elected Republican Gov. Scott Walker against the labor unions that have been protesting his proposed budget cuts all week. Conservative media guru Andrew Breitbart, possible 2012 presidential candidate Herman Cain and other notables are en route to Madison for the counter-rally, scheduled to begin at noon central time on Saturday.

Go get-em boys!

Heroism in the works.

A new Republican hero is emerging: Gov. ScottWalker. If he stays strong and doesn’t buckle, his leadership will embolden Republican governors across the country. Texas Governor Rick Perry has already released a statement today in support of Governor Scott Walker of Wisconsin.

Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker is in the middle of what will be a defining moment for our country and the conservative movement.

Governor Walker is directly confronting unsustainable state entitlements by asking government-sector unions to agree to reforms that would limit collective-bargaining for most government-sector employees to wages only, with wages capped to inflation. Under his proposal, union members would also have to vote every year to keep their union.

Rather than debate the measure Thursday, Wisconsin Democrat state senators fled the state while thousands of teachers in Madison and other cities called in sick at the urging of their labor union and forced entire school districts to be closed.

Even President Barack Obama’s political operatives have helped to orchestrate protests.

For Democrats, this is not about saving Wisconsin, or schools, or their jobs, and especially not “for the kids”. It’s about saving Barack Obama. It’s only suiting that the Democrat legislators fled to Chicago, the very city that spawned the Union Thug-in-Chief.

If Democrats fail in Wisconsin, a blue state, they know their leader is in trouble. Obama knows this, too, which is why his people are mobilizing surrounding states for protests to keep the fiscal-conservative contagion in check.

Michelle Malkin has the lowdown on what Scott Walker is trying to achieve:

State government workers in the Badger State pay piddling amounts for generous taxpayer-subsidized health benefits. Faced with a $3.6 billion budget hole and a state constitutional ban on running a deficit, new GOP Gov. Scott Walker wants public unions to pony up a little more. He has proposed raising the public employee share of health insurance premiums from less than 5 percent to 12.4 percent. He is also pushing for state workers to cover half of their pension contributions. To spare taxpayers the soaring costs of Byzantine union-negotiated work rules, he would rein in Big Labor’s collective bargaining power to cover only wages unless approved at the ballot box.  (more >>)

As more Americans learn of this very reasonable and moderate intention, support for the Liberal crybabies will shrivel up. They know this, and so they will use any means possible to distract the American people.

Democrats also believe that by tying their temper tantrum to the so-called Egyptian ‘revolution’, and Walker to Mubarak, this will somehow endear them to people in Wisconsin and across the country. Yes, Liberals are that moronic.

As Stacy McCain puts it:

The unemployed, the under-employed and regular folks trying to pay their bills aren’t likely to have a lot of love for people who (a) have jobs, (b) work at taxapayer expense, (c) get paid more money than the average taxpayer, and (d) go on strike because they don’t want to pay a dime toward their own generous benefits.

Unlike most other breaking crises, Obama wasted no time taking sides and pointing fingers. Protestors in Tehran, Libya, Bahrain, and Yemen can drop like flies by government bullets, and Obama will ignore them. But dare to challenge his union drones by merely asking that they pay their fare share, now this means war!
