Nothing like some union civility on Labor Day.
"We got to keep an eye on the battle that we face: The war on workers. And you see it everywhere, it is the Tea Party. And you know, there is only one way to beat and win that war. The one thing about working people is we like a good fight. And you know what? They've got a war, they got a war with us and there's only going to be one winner. It's going to be the workers of Michigan, and America. We're going to win that war," Jimmy Hoffa Jr. said to a heavily union crowd.
Hoffa then goes on to say:
"President Obama, this is your army. We are ready to march. Let's take these son of bitches out and give America back to an America where we belong," Hoffa added.

Sounds like a threat. I am so glad to have Teamsters "representing" my co-workers. Now I know where all the hate and negativity comes from.
-
They sound like spoiled little children whose parents are taking away their toys for being, well, spoiled little children.
They know their bennies can't be sustained, but they don't care.

That's not where ALL the hate and bigotry comes from. SEIU is another one of the most violent unions, and the teachers unions, yadda yadda yadda...

Ever since the Gabriel Giffords shooting, demoRATS have been calling for republican rhetoric to be toned down.
Whats interesting is the rats are doing the exact opposite...

Anytime you union thugs want to start something let us know. I'm sure that when the bullets start flying you all will be right in the thick of it as you hide behind the usefull idiots that will support you no matter how bad it gets.

+1.
I'm just an empty beer can's throw from the east end of the University of Northern Colorado campus. Anytime you feel like "taking me out" you lazy-assed, union thug sonuvabitch, I'll be happy to oblige you.

And the LSM is parroting the Dims' line, instead of reporting the facts.

It seems the demorats and their union bed partners have no problem waging war against their fellow countrymen (and women).
I'm with Airwolf. Bring it on!

They've demonstrated time and time again that they're perfectly willing to throw their less-senior members under the bus if it means maintaining a rich benefit package for fewer but more-senior workers. They have done so very much to deserve their crashing membership rates, kept afloat only by their paid political whores running closed-shop states, and keeping them closed-shop in obedience to their biggest contributors.

Im right here, come get some.

Hoffa's gotta keep that "retirement" money rolling in for his organized crime buddies. Apple doesn't fall far from the tree and all that.

Proud of Hoffa...that's all that idiot said? He threatened millions and they let he let's that slide?

He threatened thousands of his own people who happen to be republicans, or is he so dense to think that 100% of union membership are all democrats?

He may be a tool, but he isn't the sharpest one in the shed.

Wonder how Hoffa's comments will affect Obama in the polls.
Yesterday on The Five, everyone was ripping into Hoffa but Beckel.

I flipped to FOX to see if they were covering the shooting in Carson City. They had a quick recap over the weekend on instead. The title said, "Obama's approval rating hits a new low" as they showed a video clip of him at the Teamsters rally.

obama is like the super bowl winners going 0-16 the following year. :rotf:
and back to the topic at hand, im preparing my statement for my local union meeting this month. im going to ask why we are at war with the tea party and how come they are racist. there is one african/american member who always has an opinion. he should be able to explain it to me.
-
The war on workers. And you see it everywhere, it is the Tea Party
Considering most of us Tea Party type folks are workers, that makes this a very stupid statement.
Of course Jimmy considering himself a worker is pretty funny too, I bet you he never did an honest day's work in his entire life.
-

They may not vote for dims, but they help finance dems, by paying dues.

Not a Raiders fan, I take it? That would be the best real NFL analogy I could come up with in that case. But yeah, how do you go from getting nearly 70 million people to vote for "hopey-changey" to not even being able to sell out a fundraiser in some of the most liberal cities in America barely two years later?

Oh, I dunno, I always thought whores were underpaid. :-)

And the bureaucrats ruling that members who don't agree with that can't opt out. Then those same unionized bureaucrats donating to Dems. Even FDR wasn't crazy enough to let government workers unionize. Funny how it took a Kennedy to bring that shit about.
-
What size concrete shoe does Hoffa wear? ....just asking. :-)
-
I've been adjusting a custom load on my press that cavatates just right for Hoffa...

It's easy. You just don't lead them so much.

The Teamsters gave millions to Reagan and his Republicans in 1980.

That's a union meeting I'd pay to attend.

Maybe we should publish a map with Crosshairs over Hoffa's home.

Heads would 'splode even more than they did when Palin put them over STATES. :lmao:

I hear that shaking down businesses for protection money collective bargaining is harder than it looks. :-)

Unions are a Democrat party tax on the working man.

What construction site could be used to hide Hoffa in a concrete column?

It's already completed, but if "Sweet Cheeks" Hoffa ever tried to make good his threat to "take [me] out", I'd probably plant him under the end zone at Invesco Field in fairly short order. Might take a little longer if he takes my advice and decides to bring friends, but I still wouldn't break a sweat.

What do you have against the Denver Broncos, DSix? :tongue:

You mean OTHER than the fact that I grew up in the Seattle area, am a Seahawks fan, and still have my childhood "Raider Hater" and "Bronco Buster" T-shirts?
Nothing. Nothing at all. :-)
edited to add: Oh, and though I live in Colorado, I have still raised my son to turn away from the Dark side (the Broncos; he's a diehard Seahawks fan, too).
-
Well then unto you, I say: Congrats on beating the Saints in the playoffs last year. I didn't have anything against them until Greedy Brees started talking his union bullshit during the whole lockout. Now I can't stand 'em. Oh, and we're going to beat the hell out of them later today. :-)
Don't mind the Broncos, actually. However, a "Bronco Buster" shirt sounds absolutely fantastic!
Edit: What about the other two teams? Kansas City, and the Bolts?

Or at least be a "fly on the wall"!!!
