Dems roll out the muscle

You’ve no doubt heard the accusations that the townhall protests against ObamaCare are, gasp, organized. This indictment comes from supporters of the President who proudly lists among his prior occupations that of community organizer.

First, the accusation is certainly greatly exaggerated, as anyone viewing video of the protests can see. These people are passionate, spontaneous and carrying homemade signs. Compare that to the little girl at the Obama event who read from a card a slam of the protesters posing as a question. What a coincidence that it turns out her mother is a Democrat activist.

Second, get ready for the real, organized offensive about to be unleashed against these citizen protesters by the labor unions. The Wall Street Journal reported that the AFL-CIO has allocated $15 million for this effort. And “The Service Employees International Union is sending members to more than 400 events this month...”

Busloads of SEIU thugs will be packing townhall meetings across the Country. The pro-ObamaCare Health Care for America Now instructed its organizers to “Line up a number of people who feel comfortable interrupting and prepare them with statements.” They even have volunteers making mass production, hand made signs to put a patina of authenticity on this organized attempt to limit free speech.

Now we’ll see the bear-knuckled intimidation and bullying that is the Chicago politics that produced Obama & Rahm Emanuel. But this is the era of the ubiquitous video camera and tens of millions will be watching and forming their own conclusions.
