A Tribute to Union Leadership, Progressives, and Barack Obama

by CarterFliptMe

Music and lyrics by Pink Floyd - "Pigs (three different ones)" from the album Animals

Big man, pig man
Ha, ha, charade you are
You well heeled big wheel
Ha, ha, charade you are
And when your hand is on your heart
You're nearly a good laugh
Almost a joker
With your head down in the pig bin
Saying 'Keep on digging'
Pig stain on your fat chin
What do you hope to find
Down in the pig mine?
You're nearly a laugh
You're nearly a laugh
But you're really a cry

Bus stop rat bag
Ha, ha, charade you are
You ****ed up old hag
Ha, ha, charade you are
You radiate cold shafts of broken glass
You're nearly a good laugh
Almost worth a quick grin
You like the feel of steel
You're hot stuff with a hatpin
And good fun with a hand gun
You're nearly a laugh
You're nearly a laugh
But you're really a cry 

Hey you, White House
Ha, ha, charade you are
You house proud town mouse
Ha, ha, charade you are
You're trying to keep our feelings off the street
You're nearly a real treat
All tight lips and cold feet
And do you feel abused?
You got to stem the evil tide
And keep it all on the inside
Mary you're nearly a treat
Mary you're nearly a treat 

But you're really a cry

Support Governor Walker Rally: Our Stroll Through Obamaville

by CarterFliptMe

I was here in Madison during the protests in the spring of 2011, when Governor Walker and Wisconsin legislators signed the collective bargaining law.  At the 'Recall Walker' rally on November 19th, I noticed a couple of things that were very different.  This time the protesters seemed very well-trained.  While going through these photos, notice the abundance of 'smiles'.  When I'd point a camera at someone, they'd go from shouting and harassing, to serene and smiling in a split second.  Another thing I noticed was that the 'blue fist' signs were gone, for the most part.  In previous protests in Madison, the blue fist signs were everywhere.  Evidently union leadership has decided to abandon it, since it associated their cause with Communism.

The public union hasn't changed, and either has their 'in-your-face' and 'win by any means necessary' attitude.  But they have become much more media savvy. They have learned from their past mistakes.  It seems like union leadership has taken some lessons from Hamas, Hezbollah, and the Muslim Brotherhood when it comes to dealing with media coverage.

We The People Are "Harder Than You Think"

by CarterFliptMe

Democrat Rep. Frederica Wilson of the Congressional Black Caucus said that "the real enemy is the Tea Party", Jesse Jackson said they fought a 'tea party' back in the civil rights days, Maxine Waters said she'd like to help Tea Party people go "straight to Hell."  President Obama said the only thing blocking the United States from economic recovery was the Tea Party.  So yeah, it's election season, and even though the economy needs a bit more attention from majority-holding Democrats, they've gone into all-out attack mode on Tea Party movement supporters (a HUGE number of American citizens, btw).

So I just wanted to let the Ruling Class Machine know that WE THE PEOPLE will not be intimidated, we will not be silenced, and we will not stop until the country is on stable ground again.  WE THE PEOPLE, whether we are supporters of the Tea Party movement or not, are...

Harder Than You Think

Breitbart Keeps It Real - Transcription of Breitbart's "Bring it On" Statement

by CarterFliptMe

I don't take this statement, or speech if you will, by Andrew Breitbart lightly. I think he was being quite profound, and cutting right to the bone of what many Conservatives and even mildly interested Americans have been thinking this year.   I transcribed his statement because I think it gives a person time to really digest what Breitbart is saying.

Breitbart, in his own words:

I must say, in my non-strategic.. because I'm under attack all the time, if you see it on Twitter, they taunt (unclear) and call me gay, I mean it's just, like they're vicious, there are death threats and everything.. and so there are times, where I'm not thinking as clearly as I should. And in those unclear moments I always think to myself, "Fire the first shot. Bring it on." Because I know who's on our side.  And they know that.  They can only win a rhetorical and a propaganda war.  They cannot win.  We outnumber them, in this country, and we have the guns.  So.. they..  [laughter]

I'm not kidding.

They talk a mean game, but they will not cross that line.  Because they know what they're dealing with.  And I have people who come up to me, in the military, major named people in the military, who grab me, and they go, "Thank you for what you're doing, we got your back."  And so.. ah.. [cheering] [applause]  And so they understand that.  These are the unspoken things we know, they know.  They know who's on their side.  They've got Janeane Gerafalo... we are freaked out by that. [laughter]

We accept that when push comes to shove, they know who's on our side.  They are the bullies on the playground, and they are starting to realize, "What if we [conservatives] were to fight back?  What if we were to slap back?"  You know these union thugs, these public sector union thugs, I'm just waiting.. bring it on.

I'm sick of it. I'm sick of this Trumka guy, I'm sick of this John Sweeney guy, I'm sick of the SEIU, I'm sick of them going to people's homes.. executive's homes.. and showing up, and the media not thinking it.. you don't think there's a problem with that?   Katie Couric.   What if we went to Katie Couric's house?   What if the Tea Party showed up at Katie Couric's house?  And scared the living crap out of her teenage kids?  And that's what they [union people] do, because they know the main stream media won't cover it.

And so.. there's just a part of me that wants them to walk over that line.

Obama Agrees With Hoffa Jr. That It's Time To Kill You and Me

Yep, Obama had to have heard Hoffa Jr. say it was time to take us sons of bitches out, as he was at the side of the stage waiting to come on. Then he goes on to state he is proud of him. I would have thought some sort of admonition would be in order for Hoffa from Obama for that incendiary comment. But nope! I will take his silence and later praise as agreement with Hoffa's statement. I take people at their word, even politicians!

Hoffa Jr. Calls For Taking Us 'Sons of B*tches' Out In His Intro for Obama at Labor Day Speech

"It's time we take the son of a bitches out!"  Any confusion here from anyone on what this is supposed to mean?  The term, 'take him out', means to KILL somebody.  That is what it means.  Nice job, Obama, and Jimmy Hoffa, Jr.  Nice job, American people for electing this Chicago Corruptocrat, Barack H. Obama, to the White House!

The Best Thing That Ever Happened to Wisconsin Schools - Wisc State Sen. Glenn Grothman

as written on Wisconsin State Senator Glenn Grothman's Website

Collective Bargaining Repeal: The Best Thing That Ever Happened to Wisconsin Schools

The repeal of much of Wisconsin’s collective bargaining law with regard to many of Wisconsin’s public employees has not been adequately explained. This repeal will do more to improve the quality and lower the cost of Wisconsin government than anything else we’ve done. There are approximately 275,000 government employees in the state of Wisconsin. About 72,000 work for the state, 38,000 for cities and villages, 48,000 for counties, 10,500 (full time equivalent) for technical colleges, and 105,229 for schools.  Only half of state employees are unionized, but almost all school employees are.  (cont'd)
