Unions at Work in the Protests

By Ryan • on August 7, 2009

strikeNo jokes now folks, despite the picture.  It’s zero flak time, because the unions are now involved in the health care protests.

The SEIU made it’s presence felt in St. Louis.  A 38-year old conservative protester was injured in a fight there as he was passing out “Don’t Tread on Me” flags, and protesters were blocked from a town hall meeting while the union members went in the side and back doors.

Some footage of the violence is below.  You can hear the lame excuse that “He attacked America” come from one of the assailants.  You know, a variation on the excuse a lot of authoritarian countries around the world use when they suppress dissent.  They “had to protect the country”, you know.

Naked leftism.  Now here in America.

Ok, all you supposedly “not liberal” Democrats.  You get to make a choice now.  Which one is worth more to your supposedly “not liberal” selves:  Obama or your country?  Your thug-in-chief is now answering peaceful protests against Disastercare with union violence.

Time to ask yourselves:

  • If your plan is so great, why has it come to this?
  • If your President is so American, why is this happening?
  • Are you going to keep giving us the lame excuse that it’s all our fault?
  • Do you really think you’re going to be re-elected if this disaster passes?
  • Do you really think you’re going to be re-elected if you fall into step behind Obama after this?!

Now is the time if we find out if the “Blue Dog” label is as cosmetic as a lot of us think it is.

He asked me if I knew what time it was -- I said yes, but not right now.
