Obama Union Thugs Assaulting Americans

From: Conservative News Alerts Sent: Friday, August 14, 2009

Democrats call patriotic Americans a "lunatic fringe" while union thugs beat up patriotic Americans when they speak out on ObamaCare. The American people don't buy it. Read this message from our friends at GrassTopsUSA.

The word is out all over the country.

If you oppose Obamacare and you dare to express your 1st Amendment rights, count on being hassled, stomped-on and attacked by jack-booted SEIU union enforcers.

The question that remains unanswered: Did officials in the Obama White House play any role whatsoever in these beatings and other intimidation tactics employed against patriotic Americans who oppose ObamaCare?

In one instance, enforcers from SEIU (Service Employees International Union) showed up at far-left Congressman Russ Carnahan's town hall meeting in St. Louis.

According to eyewitness accounts, SEIU union members attacked Kenneth Gladney, an African-American man who distributes American flags and other patriotic items at Tea Party events.

Gladney's lawyer, David Brown, also an eyewitness to the savage and brutal beating, says:

"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."

Two things are certain.

One: Barack Obama knows that if he does not shut down the debate on ObamaCare, he will lose.

Two: SEIU contributed 61 million to Barack Obama. And Michelle Malkin claims that SEIU has already "been paid off with cabinet appointments, executive orders, key personnel slots, and legislative goodies."

This is the United States of America. Such things cannot happen... such things should not happen.

And if you don't want to lose your country, now is the time to stand up and be counted.

What Else Do We Know?

Is it possible that Obama or officials in the Obama White House would do something as un-American as sending in goon squads to attack American citizens?

Here's what we know: Presidential Advisor David Axelrod and deputy chief of staff Jim Messina, told a group of senators at a White House strategy meeting to go home and blame the insurance companies for high health care costs and the failure to cover preexisting condition.

But, the senators asked, what about these folks who are demonstrating against ObamaCare?

Messina said: "If you get hit, we will punch back twice as hard."

Who's "we"? "You" get hit. "We" punch back.

You can see them on video on the Internet... hulking union zombies with strong backs wading into the frail bands of white-haired old men and old women... bullying... intimidating... effectively daring anyone to exercise their 1st Amendment rights....

These beasts of burden belong to Obama now. And if we do nothing, you can expect to see them again and again and again... whenever they believe that Barack Obama is about to lose a vote.

As soon as the debate begins to go against Obama on any issue, expect to hear the sound of mumbling and muttering as dull-eyed thugs prove the old adages that "might makes right" ... that there isn't a debate you can't win with enough muscle and a deficiency of conscience.

The 20th century was dominated by men who used such tactics, who directed their internal armies of thugs to herd dissenters into camps, starve them, gas them and throw their lifeless bodies into mass graves.

Have we come to the day when America will be ruled by such brutes and bullies?

Tell your Congressional Representatives that the United States is not the former Soviet Union [or Nazi Germany.] Demand an immediate investigation into SEIU and ACORN's roles in physically attacking opponents of ObamaCare and demand an investigation into any and all connections between violence at these town hall meetings and the Obama White House.

The Violence Was Not Confined To St. Louis.

The violence wasn't confined to St. Louis. It also erupted in Tampa at a town hall meeting held by Representative Kathy Castor... another sweetheart of SEIU.

The strategy was identical and with the same cast of characters: hulking enforcers at the ready and Washington left-wingers busily orchestrating the affair.

Intimidation always comes first. If intimidation fails, violence ensues.

So in some cases, these shock-troops succeeded in locking patriotic Americans out of the meetings without resorting to a show of force.

No opposition, no debate.... If the other team doesn't show, you win by forfeit. If only a few show, you can run over them with your Hummer.

In Tampa, union members were let into the meeting early. When the crowd of patriotic Americans objected, the Washington left-wingers essentially said:

Oh... these gentlemen with the blackjacks hanging out of their pockets are helping to set up the chairs.

The eventual result in this case: more violence.

But stubborn, foolish and outmanned Americans stood their ground. For their refusal to kow-tow, they got knocked around.

And they did succeed in asking the same old ugly questions Obama wants to quash.

Have you personally read the 1,000-page bill, Ms. Castor?

Why does the bill contain a section providing "end-of life counseling" for old folks who have paid into the system all their lives, but are now a financial burden on the state?

But wait a minute! The bill doesn't say that, does it?

Actually, it sounds pretty mandatory to us.

Soon enough, Castor fled.

Will Your Health Care Be Rationed? Will People Die Needlessly? Will Your Taxes Go Through The Roof?

Obama, White House spokesman Bob Gibbs, and a host of others have told you that nothing like that could ever happen.

Let's take a real case.

The State of Oregon has government-run health care. 64-year-old Barbara Wagner had terminal cancer. Her doctor recommended Tarceva, a new drug he believed could prolong her life.

As soon as he gave Wagner real hope, the State of Oregon reached out its clammy hand and snatched it away.

"We were unable to approve [this treatment]," said the imperial State – and that's a real quote. No Tarceva for Wagner. Why not? Because it costs too much.

More specifically, the letter Wagner received from Big Brother stated:

"Treatment of advanced cancer that is meant to prolong life, or change the course of this disease, is not a covered benefit of the Oregon Health Plan."

But did the State of Oregon leave her without an option? No. It told her precisely what the system would do.

Are you ready for this? It would fund "physican aid in dying." That's a direct quote... right out of the letter.

Interviewed by a reporter, Dr. Son Saha - chairman of the commission that decreed the State would not pay for Wagner's potentially live extending treatment – was almost as oily-tongued as the proponents of ObamaCare.

When asked if the state was refusing to keep her alive but quite willing to help her commit suicide, Dr. Saha said, "I don't think anyone's saying that."

When the interviewer pressed him, asking, in effect, if cost was a big factor in determining which treatments to approve or disapprove, Dr. Saha said quietly: "That's not a question we think about."

However, when backed into a corner, Dr. Saha calibrated his words very, very carefully: "If we invest thousands and thousands of dollars in one person's days to weeks, we are taking away those dollars from someone [else]."

There you have it. That's government health care – cold and money-grubbing.

Spy On Your Neighbors....

But beating up elderly people at town hall meetings didn't play well with the American people. Despite SEIU's protests of innocence, videos on the Internet clearly distinguished the bullies from the victims.

And the American people were smart enough to understand that the violence didn't start until Obama's beloved SEIU came onto the scene.

By the weekend, ObamaCare was still in deep trouble.

So Monday morning, the White House – in a breath-taking move unprecedented in American history – called on Organizing for America to go door to door in all 50 states and make people understand that ObamaCare must be passed this fall. Or else!

What is Organizing for America? It was created during the 2008 campaign to support Barack Obama's candidacy and is militantly partisan. It has been officially incorporated into the Democratic National Committee and - despite shrill denials - is synonymous with ACORN.

Organizing for America bears an eerie resemblance to European fascist organizations – which were also an official branch of the ruling party.

According to Glenn Beck's website, Organizing for America commandeered the police in Louisiana to stop Americans from speaking against ObamaCare – and even to each other.

Organizing for America has a list of 13 million, and one of them may be ringing your doorbell soon, ordering you to write your Congressman and Senator in support of socialized medicine. And no arguments.

If they comes calling on you, slam the door and lock it!

Folks, this is an invasion by an alien army... proof that we may be on the brink of a takeover. ObamaCare must be defeated.
