The opposition to the health care bill leading up to the vote was well documented. Almost three quarters of Americans opposed the bill in its final form. America got it anyway. We were spanked for opposing it. But how about since it's passed? Are people just ready to move on?
A new poll from CBS shows that 62 percent of Americans want the GOP to continue fighting this legislation. And that's not just those angry Republicans: 41 percent of Democrats polled want the GOP to continue fighting the bill. Looks like decent bipartisan support against it.
If you are the president, this is not the debate you want the country having right now. He needs people to move on and quickly forget that he just slapped America around to get his Marxist dream bill shoved through.
So, what's the strategy to get the talk onto anything else other than the bill? It's time to use the tried and true method: "hate speech."
Yes, if you can't win the argument, you stop the argument. It's what the left resorts to time after time. They do it with talk radio and the Fairness Doctrine. An opposing voice? Let's stomp them out. If you're against amnesty? You just hate people who look different than you. Hate speech. Against health care? You hate poor people. Hate speech.
This is how they are attempting to silence the Tea Partiers — they are just so hateful, they are going to get violent. During the Tea Parties, liberals in the media were trembling with fear and shaking in their boots. And they were right — see how scary they look? Oh, the horror! Parents, cover your children's eyes.
Of course, no actual violence ever actually happened at any of the Tea Party rallies. But that didn't stop Nancy Pelosi from crying about the possibility
If she was really worried about the threat of violence, why did Pelosi grab a giant gavel and walk into a sea of protesters? Did the Secret Service recommend that's not a good idea? Did anyone warn the speaker that she was inciting these people?
Again: Nothing has happened. Could it? Of course — there are crazies in all walks of life. But no one can objectively look at the 100 percent peace ratio from the Tea Parties and be fearful of them.
But look at the story line that's now being presented in the media and from elected representatives:
• CNN devoted a large portion of their programming Wednesday to congressmen under threat
• MSNBC is running loops of Democratic headquarters that had windows broken in — implying that Republicans are doing it, even though no arrests have been made
• Chris Matthews accused Republicans of "criminal" incitement, saying Bart Stupak is getting threats. Did Chris Matthews care about Bart Stupak and his family when he was being intimidated by the left because he opposed the health care bill? I don't recall hearing anything about that. But, like the rest of America, I don't watch his show, so maybe I'm wrong about that
• People are crawling out of the woodwork to call me dangerous. James Cameron called me that; Cokie Roberts called me a terrorist and a traitor to the country
• Sarah Palin is being called out for "inciting" people. The evidence? Oh, it's damming. Look at this scary map from her Facebook post. See those targets? That couldn't possibly mean politicians to vote out of office? No, she wants you to shoot them all. Really? Wait, I just realized something: There's an entire chain of stores named "Target" and their logo is a bulls-eye! And who shops there? I bet a lot of Tea Party people. Do they sell guns? Why the violence from Target stores?
Do you see how ridiculous this is? Rep. Clyburn is now saying that Republicans are "aiding and abetting this kind of terrorism":
Look, I get threats. I really do. You've got to take them seriously.
If you are on the frontlines of debate and you are speaking out, you are going to get threats and you have to take them seriously. But at no time have you ever heard me blame them on anyone other than the crazy people who are doing it.
But the left pressures John Boehner to issue an apology. An apology? For what? What did John Boehner do? Did he hurt someone? This seems like a bit of an overreaction to something there is very, very little actual evidence of.
MSNBC and CNN are acting like it's a near certainty that the right will act out any moment; they are on hot standby. But, I wonder why the media hasn't bothered to look into the recent rash of all the actual violence that's happened lately. Who's doing it? Let's take a look at a few examples:
• Remember the census worker who died? Immediately the left tried to frame that as a crazy right winger killing this guy. Some even blamed me for that. Turns out it was a suicide. No one has apologized to me yet
• The whack job who flew his plane into an IRS building: The media once again tried to paint this guy as a right winger, but reading his manifesto clearly showed this guy was probably a communist
• It was a liberal who bit off the finger of an opponent to Obama's health care reform
• It was SEIU thugs who beat down an African-American health care opponent because he was handing out material
• Remember those broken windows MSNBC was showing? In Denver, the media was quick to report that DNC headquarters were attacked by Republicans. Until it turned out that a Democrat was the one who did it. Then the story lost traction, somehow
• At the G20 in Pittsburgh, far-left protestors started vandalizing; tens of thousands of dollars in damage
• The far-left activist group ELF burned up Hummers and SUVs last summer and we were one of the only ones that reported the left blew up a radio station tower and took a radio station off the air
• A far-left activist group trying to save the whales, has a TV show where they actually attack and damage whaling ships
• Obama's buddies Bill Ayers and Jeff Jones were running around setting off bombs in the 1960s at places like the Pentagon. They were actual unrepentant domestic terrorists
• Amy Bishop shot and killed some of her coworkers. She was a radical Obama supporter
• It was a liberal who brought bombs to the GOP convention in 2008
• I know it's Canada, but look what happened to Ann Coulter in Canada: She had to cancel her speech there because the Canadians were so concerned about her hate speech that they resorted to intimidation and threats of violence to make her cancel it. They surrounded the building with sticks and stones! I'm pretty sure it wasn't conservatives who did that one
• And, I know it's ancient history, but can we all pause for a minute and remember all the way back to the days of President George W. Bush? The press so wanted to show how hated he was they couldn't wait to show pictures like these. Can we please roll the tape now of Nancy Pelosi in 2004 crying because she was worried about another act of violence on President Bush? It doesn't exist? That's weird. It's almost like the left is trumping this up for the politics of it all.
Listen to the language in this article from The Daily Mail: "Americans who suggest Barack Obama should rot in hell are apparently deadly serious."
You got it? They are deadly serious.
"Nearly a quarter of Republicans believe the Democrat president 'may be the Antichrist'"
No, that's James Cameron — I pointed that out yesterday.
"An even greater number compared him to Hitler."
Oh, if they really believe that — gee, what are those crazy Republicans capable of? But wait, there's more. They aren't just regular Republicans, they are religious wackos as well:
"Mr. Obama was jubilant this week after securing his health care reform plan. But his triumph seems only to have inflamed his critics among the evangelical Christians from America's heartland who kept George Bush in power for eight years and have demonized his successor."
His critics are inflamed; they are religious kooks; they're from the heartland and they'll do anything.
Here's the best part:
"And 67 percent of Republicans who responded believed Obama was a socialist, despite his central leanings."
His central leanings? He's a centrist?
Look at how they are rewriting history already.
TIME magazine couldn't even find pictures of the Tea Parties when they did the year in review. They did the same thing with FDR. He was the closest this country ever had to a dictator and progressives have turned him into a hero. His body wasn't even cold yet and Congress passed term limits. Yeah, they loved him. Historians look back on Woodrow Wilson fondly. Why? The Nazis learned propaganda from the Wilson administration.
America, you are being set up.
The losers in the '60s couldn't get a revolution started so they came up with a new way. But Martin Luther King did it the right way: peace. Gandhi did it the right way: peace. We will continue to do it the right way: peace.
God forbid something happens. But if it does, the news story won't be about a single crazy person. No, the narrative is being presented to the American people. The groundwork is being laid: America has a centrist, normal, red, white and blue president and Congress are up against a bunch of crazy, radical, Tea Party, violent freaks ready to attack at any moment.
Barack Obama said he wouldn't use the politics of fear like George W. Bush did. He's just violated his greatest campaign promise and now he's using the politics of fear to rally his base.
Chris, how does that jive with the recent CBS poll showing more people are happy with the bill after it passed than before?
ReplyDeleteand that obama's approval has gone up since the bill passed on sunday?
Chris, why don't you condemn the violence and the threats like a good American.
ReplyDeleteThese kinds of cowardly acts are not acceptable, even for a teabagger. I should think you'd be outraged at the people inciting violence, being that you'd condemned liberals.
Joe, it wasn't a CBS poll that you are referring to. Chris has the CBS poll. Why don't you check out a poll of actual voters, like a Rasmussen. The poll you are thinking of is the only one that says anything of the sort, and it's just of any idiot on the street. Rasmussen did show Obama's approval go up by, I believe 9 points, but it was almost all Democrat approval. Republican and Independent stayed almost the same. Check out Rasmussen.
ReplyDeleteBruce, the right has condemned the violence. Why doesn't the left-wingers condemn the violence? I didn't hear one word condemning Cantor's office being shot. I didn't hear one word condemning the radical left-wingers who were harassing Stupak's wife, calling his personal home to the point that they had to turn off the phones. I didn't hear anyone condemning you for going on Joe Knollenberg's private property and harassing his wife. You are a psycho Bruce. You need to start by condemning yourself to avoid looking like a complete hypocrite.
Maybe you didn't hear, John, the shot at Cantor's office wasn't even real.
ReplyDeletehttp://tpmlivewire.talkingpointsmemo.com/2010/03/richmond-police-statement-on-cantor-office-vandalism.php
I never did anything that anyone in their right mind would call harassment or violent. All I did was offer a Congresman's wife an ice cream. Scary, huh?
Cantor liked about the incident at his campaign office, which it turns out isn't even in his Congressional district.
All the Threats Being Reported by The Press Makes Me Wonder Other than Being Told These Threat Occurred Did Any Body Bother to Check Creditability? With all the Technology Available You Would Think Tracing Calls Would Be Possible! At Least Somebody From Media Could Say We Checked Them Out And They Came Back to A Phone Booth ,IF You Can Find One!
ReplyDeleteDont Agree With any Violence Or Threats From Either Side. Some Have Done The You Did But Neglect What They Have Done Over The Years! Time To Focus on COUNTRY or This Great NATION Could Become Another European State and How Do Any Of US Explain that to OUR Children or Grand Children!
We As Citizens Had Better Keep OUR Eye On The Ball and These THREATS are Not The BALL, But a Way To Blow Smoke Over What Has and What Will Occurr in The Future.
This Administration is NOT, No Matter What Is Stated a Friend of Private Sector or Capitolism. If It Was Why Has Not The Economy Been Number One On The Administrations Agenda. Jobs and Economy are Number One On Citizens Agenda and That Is A Source of CITIZENS Anger! Where Are Those JOBS Not Counting 16,500 More IRS Agents.
Bruce, a bullet through the window, that's a fact.
ReplyDeleteBruce, shot through Cantor's campaign hq, that's a fact.
Bruce, Cantor receiving threatening calls and emails, that's a fact.
But all that is acceptable to you? You nuts are getting push-back and you can't accept it. Look at you making excuses. Why don't you just come out and say that people should not be discharging weapons and shooting holes in people's windows? LOL
Bruce, I notice you didn't address the threatening harassing calls made to Stupak's house and wife when he was against the bill. Those are facts, those were left-wing radicals. Where is your outrage Bruce? You are a hypocrite of the highest order!
Bruce, you got the police called on you because you were harassing Joe's poor old wife. She was scared to death, and who wouldn't be?!? Bruce, you wanted to go after a man who admitted he had mental issues. Bruce, you are a psycho who won't apologize for being a radical leftist.
Bruce I was mad when the left have been doing violence and if it turns out that the right is doing it I'm equally mad. You on the other hand only care when it MIGHT be a right winger. Where is your outrage at all the things I just posted? You have none Bruce that is where it is. You think it is just when your side does it. Where have you been with your outrage when the left burned SUV's,burned housing projects,rioted,when SEIU beat a black man and called him the N word,when a left wing psycho flew his plane into the IRS building,when you blew up a radio tower,when you on the left brought a bomb to the 2008 GOP convention? You are the radical left and the truth sets us free every time. It's your lies that bind you on the left.
ReplyDeleteBruce is that why you were arrested? I don't think anyone in their right mind would think you got arrested for offering a congressmans wife an ice cream cone. You really are a mental case. Bruce why is are the police still investigating the shooting if some op-ed said it isn't real? BWAAAAHAHHHAHAA. How dumb can you be to think we would believe an op-ed before we believe the police? We know how dumb you are that's for sure.
ReplyDeleteJohn, you have several facts wrong. According to the police, the bullet was NOT fired through Cantor's window. It was a stray bullet that happened to go through Cantor's window that was fired from a long distance.
ReplyDeleteIf any threatening calls went to Stupak's home and family, that's wrong. Period. As far as "harassing Knollenberg's wife, that isn't true either. Offering someone ice cream is not harassment by anyone's definition.
Trent didn't check himself into the hospital for diagnosis until after our confrontation in Lytle Pharmacy.
No, I don't apologize, John. I did absolutely nothing to apologize for.
Bruce did you know that not one Tea Party member has been arrested? Did you know that not one time have the police been called on the Tea Party members? Other then the union SEIU members and the New Black Panther Party members how many left wingers have been arrested do to VIOLENCE and intimidation? It sure looks like you on the left are projecting again.
ReplyDeleteBruce said,"No, I don't apologize, John. I did absolutely nothing to apologize for." And I'd bet you go to jail all over again to get your way wouldn't you Bruce???? You don't see anything wrong with Saul Lawinski rules for radicals tactics? The end justifies the means in with you and your liberal minion. This Spring and Summer should be fun at you rallies Bruce.

From The Washington Times: President Obama's fiscal 2011 budget will generate nearly $10 trillion in cumulative budget deficits over the next 10 years, $1.2 trillion more than the administration projected, and raise the federal debt to 90 percent of the nation's economic output by 2020, the Congressional Budget Office reported Thursday.
ReplyDelete[SNIP]
The federal public debt, which was $6.3 trillion ($56,000 per household) when Mr. Obama entered office amid an economic crisis, totals $8.2 trillion ($72,000 per household) today, and it's headed toward $20.3 trillion (more than $170,000 per household) in 2020, according to CBO's deficit estimates.
That's a lot of stew. Don't you DemocRats care about what you are doing to future generations with this debt? Why do you hate the next generations so much? Firts you abort them and now you debtridden them.
Bruce, now you are guilty of spinning the story. Sure sure Bruce, it's just a coincidence that a bullet went through Cantor's window. Sure Comrade Bruce. Just like all that other stuff the left is squawking about can be explained away as just coincidences.
ReplyDeleteYou know that woman was scared for her life. What right do you have to go to someone's private house and walk up to their house when their wife is home?!? She knew you were out there you psycho, and to have some nut-job that is protesting your husband AT HIS PRIVATE RESIDENCE come up to the house and knock at the door ... it's abhorrent Comrade Bruce, and I would think that Joe would be man enough to condemn your actions. You are a creep of the highest order.
And you know I was talking about the fact that you wanted to go after that guy when he got out of treatment. It's in your own words Comrade Bruce, don't forget that I have all this correspondence of yours on Democratic Underground and DailyKos. You nut-job. You are such a whack-a-doodle that other radical left-wingers had to talk you down! Do you deny that Comrade Bruce? Do you deny that the one guy asked you "what do you want the guy to do, jump from a bridge?"
And Chris, thanks for reminding me that Comrade Bruce was arrested for disrupting a meeting.
Go ahead Comrade Bruce, you think it's acceptable for people to make threatening remarks to Jews like Cantor. Look at how Comrade Obama is treating Israel, while solving the leading problem of the '80's with Russia and placating Iran and soon N. Korea. You regressives have your priorities all jacked-the-f**k up. Including how you call us dangerous but you are the only one I know that has spent any time in jail. You are the only one I know who has gone on private property to harass someone, and then made up some BS story about wanting to give that little old lady some ice cream. You are the only one on here who has threatened MY family, saying you wish they would meet with harm. That's all YOU Bruce Fealk. You are a disgusting monster.
I can't wait to use all this against Comrade's Peters and FAILk. It will be my pleasure to remind the press about what nut-jobs you and Peters are. Think the press will think it's acceptable to offer someone ice cream? Hey Comrade Bruce, I have some ice cream, mind if I bring it over for your wife? Let me know what your address is. Ooops, never mind, I have your address. I'll just swing on by when you aren't at home and see if she wants some ice cream. That's acceptable to you, right? Let me know how you feel about it Comrade Bruce. I would just be asking her if she wants some ice cream. And you indicate it's fine if it's private property. Let me know what you think, I would love to hear your thoughts on whether that would be harassing you and your wife.
John, it was a CBS poll. And its not the only poll that indicates a rise in popularity for the reform after the vote. Both USA Today and Quinnpac show increases.
ReplyDeleteIf someone came up on my porch and offered my wife an ice cream, I'd have not problem with it. As long as you leave your gun at home and are polite, I don't see a problem.
ReplyDeleteWhat we did was perfectly legal. We were canvassing the neighborhood. There were no arrests when we visited Joe's neighborhood.
The only reason I got arrested is because Glenn Clark didn't want to allow their meeting to be recorded.
Joe, I was talking about the poll in Chris' blog. Go ahead and give a link to the CBS poll you are talking about, but it's weird that CBS puts out two different polls. The USA Today one is the one I thought you were talking about. Please leave a link to those as well. But my thoughts on it still stand. I consistently use Rasmussen; they are proven to be consistent and accurate, and they poll likely voters not just folks on the street. I guess the proof will be in November though, don't you agree?
ReplyDeleteLet your wife know I will be over Comrade Bruce. Maybe some others would like to stop over and give her some ice cream as well. Don't worry folks, Bruce says it's okay. I guess he isn't as concerned about us nuts as he said he was. I would never give Comrade Bruce my address or give him permission to visit my wife. Either we aren't as dangerous as chicken-little says we are, or he doesn't care about his wife and her well-being! LOL

Bruce Fealk broke the law and was arrested. I'm glad justice was served, and a dangerous man was removed from the streets for a short while, but I don't think you are qualified to be lecturing others Comrade Bruce. You are a psycho. And I notice you can't deny that other radical left-wingers had to talk you down from continuing to harass a man who admitted he had mental problems. You must be proud of that one Comrade Bruce.
Bruce said,"The only reason I got arrested is because Glenn Clark didn't want to allow their meeting to be recorded." Since when is it illegal to do that Bruce? I think there is a lot more to the story then that Bruce. But you like to tell half the story. Kind of like acting all creepy and stalker-like and then make up a story about canvasing the neiborhood. If I saw someone that looked like you with your stalking/harrasing and civil disobedience I'd call the cops too. But that is what you wanted to do. You knew that that would scare her because of your history with her husband and his staff.Bruce your own family hates you and has no problem telling everyone that will listen what a psycho you are. Bruce you have no moral compass but what you make up. You think of ways to torture people you disagree with.
ReplyDeleteAt least that is what Sue,Steve,your brother and many of the left wing on the left wing blogs. I could see you Bruce throwing bricks through a DNC window just to make us look bad.
Wow, Chris. You really are something else. You do make me laugh though.
ReplyDeleteWe'll see you in November.
Psycho Comrade Bruce, I'll be seeing your wife before November. In fact, I might just have to make a trip to the library and then mosey on down to your place.
ReplyDeleteYou never did answer my question Bruce. Are we not as scary, crazy and radical as you say we are, or do you not care about your wife's safety? Seems you have yourself in what I like to call "a bit of a quandry". You know what I think Comrade Bruce? I think you love your family and would never take the risk of letting someone scary near them. So I think you, just like all the Hypocrats and regressives, have been pushing this rhetoric about peaceful protesters. Telling lies just like Clyburn.
BWAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHA!
Chris, there is nothing more to it than what I said. Glenn trumped up charges and the judge knew it. Glenn has quite the reputation.
ReplyDeleteBruce you sound like every inmate in jail. "It ain't my fault","I didn't do anything wrong"
ReplyDeleteWere you convicted Bruce?
No, I wasn't. The charges were dismissed. My record was wiped clean.
ReplyDeleteBeing "Wiped Clean" Ouch!
ReplyDeleteHave a Ice Cream!
I see bruces blog isn't doing too well. It must be that he doesn't post all comments but the sick ones from Jey-Ney and his other friend. Bruce what ever happened to djtyg? Is he in jail now or a mental hospital?
ReplyDeleteBruce, why didn't you just stop video-taping when they asked you to? What a jerk you are. Stirring it up, I'm glad they took you to the "pokey". I bet you are too, sick-o. LOL
ReplyDeleteChris - Did you see all the blatant threats against Sarah Palin? Beyond the pale. I hope vomamike, Joe, and Bruce have the class to denounce and condemn this sort of thing. But I'm not holding my breath. I'm sure they're just going to say it was hundreds of "mis-speakings" or a "plant", or "two wrongs make a right". I think it's horrible, and it started taking place long before the health care tax vote.

Sick left-winger psychos.
Chris, a friend of a friend wrote this letter to Senator Levin; I thought you might enjoy it:
ReplyDeleteThis is my response to an email sent by Senator Levin to me. In it, he extols the virtues of the health care legislation Congress has crammed down our throats.
Dear Senator Levin,
Thank you for your update on the Congress' passage of their version of health care reform. I do appreciate it. However, I am far from ready to throw a health care party at my house for the following reasons:
1. One thing I had hoped above all is that our elected officials on all levels of the federal government, regardless of party, had in common was our Constitution. Any member of Congress, without regard to any bill's merits, would filter all legislation through the supreme document of the Land. In other words, you may support a piece of legislation, but if the process was unconstitutional, you would have to vote 'No'. Most Americans believe in fair play and the rule of law and would show profound respect for someone who has the ability to cast aside partisan politics to uphold the the Constitution and rules in of both chambers of the legislature. To the dismay of patriots everywhere, the House [was prepared to violate] Article 1, Section 7 of the Constitution by deeming the health care legislation as passed by the Senate. It is a violation of the Constitution to offer "inducements" (eg. "Louisiana Purchase" and the "Cornhusker Kickback") to several states as the Constitution spells out all states are to be given the same deal across the board. Finally, there is no section anywhere in our Constitution giving Congress the right to require any American to purchase any product or service. This Congress and all its members who supported such legislation by casting an 'Aye' vote are in direct violation of their oath of office to defend and uphold the Constitution and deserve to be removed from office.
2. At no time was any common sense, free market solution considered. There are so many ways the federal government could have driven down the costs of health care and opened access to so many people without socializing the world's best medical industry. Examples of reducing costs and improving access are:
a. Open up the entire industry to competition. ... competition has two effects - lowers prices and improves quality. Compare prices of 10 years ago for Lasik and cosmetic surgery to today's prices as these two procedures are open to market forces.
b. Tort reform to eliminate defensive medicine practices.
c. Reducing government mandated recordkeeping which amount to 1/3 of the cost of health care.
d. Allowing chambers of commerce and co-ops to offer group rates to local businesses and individuals.
e. Using Medicare funds to subsidize insurance premiums of working poor Americans based on their wages. This has a two-fold benefit as it keeps bureaucrats from meting out medicine and adds value to employment.
f. Make insurance premiums tax deductible.
g. Use Medicare funds to subsidize premiums to a pool of insurance policies for those with pre-existing conditions.
No, instead the American people saw a concerted effort by the federal government to seize control of 17% of the economy. Americans everywhere have become rather fond of freedom, but in the words of Congressman Dingell we can see our liberties being trampled upon: "It takes a long time to do the necessary administrative steps that have to be taken to put the legislation together to control the people." Every member of Congress and the President should hang their heads in shame for what they have done.
3. Finally, we have all been taught we live in a representative republic where our elected officials are to represent the will of the people. When 3/4 of the American public has called, written and emailed Congress in opposition to this costly and intrusive legislation, the Congress chose to transform our form of government to an oligarchy or rule by elites. You and everyone who supported this inane legislation will be feeling the ire of freedom-loving Americans at the ballot box starting in Nov. 2010. It is as American as Mom and apple pie for free Americans to squabble over policies and the events of the day, but we all share in the love of country and its sacred institutions such as the Declaration of Independence and our Constitution. That is what free people do and it is not an indication of disloyalty at all. What the federal government has done unconstitutionally has awakened the public that the biggest threat to our freedoms does not lie in some foreign land, but rather it is located in Washington, D.C.
ReplyDeleteI believe Cicero summed up the feeling many Americans hold today towards officials who have turned "government of the people, by the people, for the people" into government AGAINST the people:
"A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear."
—Marcus Tullius Cicero 106 BC – 43 BC
It is my intention as well as many, many other patriots to work diligently to right a wrong that has been foisted upon our beloved country by replacing anyone who trashed our Constitution and thwarted the will of the people with responsible individuals who understand it is "We the People" who run this country - not elites.
Again, I thank you for your reply.
Sincerely,
Charles

John, they were holding an event in a socialistic government run, government paid for, therefore taxpayer paid for building.
ReplyDeleteI had a right to be there recording their event. Glenn Clark freaked out that their racist meeting would be on camera and on YouTube. He just didn't want it on the record. Glenn was supposed to speak, but he's so freaked out by cameras and being on the record with his rhetoric, he decided to have me arrested instead of being on the record. What is he so afraid of saying on camera that he couldn't say off camera?
If any liberals threatened anyone, I condemn that too, John.
I just read that a teabagger called Representative Alan Grayson's house and told his 5 year old they were going to kill him.
But you probably condone that, right John and Chris?

Bruce it is the left that have proven to be violent and condone that violence for decades. If conservatives become violent then shame on them. We have said it a houndred times b=ut you on the left want to deflect. Bruce if what you say is true then why were you arrested? We can tell that you are lieing because your story doesn't add up. You may have justified it to yourself but you still got arrested for your actions. Bruce you were very disruptive to the meeting and that is what you wanted to do. You used the camera and yourself to disrupt a meeting. What if we did the same thing to your meetings? We had people at your meetings filming and taking note. I know of one video from your last meeting that made it's way to the FBI because of what was cought on that video from some left wing radicals talking amongst themselves. But the meeting was not shut down because of the right wing trying to shut you radicals down. We belive in the Constitution and you on the left don't. Bruce why haven't you said sorry for every left winger attack that has been happening all along? Why did you condone the beating of that black man at the Tea party? Why did you condone the IRS building attack by a left wing radical? Why did you condone the Obama supporter left wing radical professor when she shot up the university? Why do you condone the intimidation from the NBPP members at the polls? Why do you condone all the threats on Palin and her family? Why do you condone all the threats to "W"? And why do you condone threatening a Joe and his staff and family? Why do you condone waterboarding me but not a terrorist? Could it be that it is the left that is doing and has been doing all the condoning while the right wing can say it's wrong enough?
ReplyDeleteOh, by the way Chris, Chetly Zarko came to a forum between Gary Peters and Nancy Skinner and was allowed to take pictures and record the entire event. He sat right in front of me and nothing happened to him. He's about as right wing as you get.
ReplyDeleteI wasn't disruptive to the meeting at all, Chris. I was in the back of the room minding my own business with my camera.
I would only waterboard you, Chris, so that you would admit that waterboarding is torture like Mancow did after he was waterboarded, after having said for a long time that waterboarding wasn't torture. At least he manned up and volunteered to be waterboarded and then was man enough to admit that WATERBOARDING IS TORTURE.
Just so we're crystal clear, I never threatened Joe or his family or his staff.
And just so we're clear again, Chris, these are Congressmen and women that are getting calls at home threatening their families. Threatening a 5-year-old, telling him you're going to kill him is sick and that person should be hunted down and put in jail.
On The Alledge Call to Graysons Daughter Did The Caller Say Hi Im A Tea Bagger, if Thats The Words ,Tea Party Members Dont Use The Term Tea Bagger the Left Does! Would Not Condon The Call, Did The Caller ID Say "Tea Bagger"! Wonder HOW Many Calls Of This Nature Have Been Received PRIOR to Socialized Insurance Passage and WHY Now They Are Just Coming to Light. This Whole He Said/She Said Has Been Going On For Decades and NOW Its SMOKE to Sheild Politicans From The Citizens They Will Face In November. " Can You Hear Us Now" Will Be The Citizens Call Come November!
ReplyDeleteJust Out Of Curiosity WHY Dont ALL The Politicans have Unlisted Numbers at Home, I Do!
Comrade Bruce, why don't you come out and condemn all this left-wing Koffee Klatch Klan violence and threats against a now PRIVATE citizen, Sarah Palin? Why all this hate-mongering against a PRIVATE citizen Comrade Bruce? Will you denounce this violence on your blog, as Chris has done on his? Comrade Bruce, are you condoning this kind of behavior from your regressive lieberal groups?
ReplyDeleteComrade Bruce could have shut off his camera when he was told video-taping was allowed. He didn't, he is just a rabble-rouser. Videotaping was not allowed at the forum FAILk went to, and he is trying to compare it to one where videotaping was clearly allowed. Comrade Bruce, sporting events at Ford Field, which was paid for with taxpayer funds, are not allowed to be videotaped by the paying public. You dumbass. So Comrade Bruce, are you saying the police were not performing their duty to uphold the law when they arrested you? LOL
Now Comrade Bruce is concerned about a phone call to Grayson's house, when he felt no worries about going to Joe's private residence and harassing that poor guy's old wife. She was scared to death of the mealy-mouthed nut-job knocking at her door. For all she knew you had a gun Bruce. To me, a nut on my front stoop is scarier than a stupid fake phone call. Like Al says, why don't these idiots have unlisted numbers?
Comrade Bruce, you never answered my question. You said it was fine if I go to your wife's house and give her some ice cream. Either you don't care about her well-being, or you are telling lies when you say how dangerous we conservatives are. Still waiting for an answer Comrade Bruce! BWAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Hmmmm ... Grayson .... Grayson .... where have I heard that name before .... ah, yes, wasn't the the Hypocrat spewing rhetoric of hatred, saying that the Republican's health care plan was for the sick to die quickly (while the Hypocrats seemed to have adopted THAT plan on steroids, not kicking in for four years and leaving children with pre-existing conditions uninsured, taxing everything that moves and doesn't move, and paying for abortions ... lotta death in that plan)? Wasn't Grayson the guy who, spewing his hatred, referred to Republicans as Nazis and likened their peaceful, market-driven cost reductions of health care costs so anyone can afford them, and establishing a high-risk pool for those with pre-existing conditions to the holocaust? Wasn't it Grayson that called a woman a whore? That guy is a class act and upstanding citizen, he deserves the utmost respect, doesn't he? LMAO
ReplyDeleteBruce not just that person that threatened the 5 year old but what about all those thousands of liberals that have been threatening for the last decade? Or just this year? You only seem to cast out the right wing while condoning the left. I find it hard to believe that you were being an upstanding citizen when the police arrested you. I know you didn't do anything wrong to get arrested. HAHAHAHHAHA. You are funny Bruce. Like I've said before the prisons and jails are full of liberals that "didn't do it".
ReplyDeleteWe have a good reason to get violent. What reasons do you neo-cons have for all the racism and hate speech?
ReplyDeleteJay-Ney You Have GOOD Reason to Take Your Meds Before YOU Go Back To the Mushroom Patch! Heard Medicade Is Losing Alot of InPatient Psychiatry As It Donation To Nobama Care!
ReplyDeleteChris, i hate violence and anyone who commits it. I don't condone any violence.
ReplyDeletethat why i have to remind you of the single greatest American terrorist, one extreme rightwinger Timothy McVeigh, who killed many more people than Ayers or anyone else associated with the liberals. So please pull that plank out of your eye.
Chris, you side isn't without its share of vile people.
