Pres. Obama needs to fly into WI and break some heads! He needs to Show 'em! 
 Edited on Fri Feb-25-11 02:03 AM by FrenchieCat
Don't know what he is waiting for? 

Cause he needs to get off his lazy ass and do "somethin'" !!

A perdy speech would be great. 
But him and his security detail walking the picket line joining the protestors would be even
better!
Just think of the photo-Opportunities symbolic visual!


I mean...come on! Why would President get off your ass! Obama want to pass this up?
He could be in all of the newspapers and shit, and he could make it be all about him!




Let's replace this headline....

GOP Is Anti-Union, But Poll Says Public Isn't
http://news.yahoo.com/s/atlantic/20110222/cm_atlantic/g...

with this one....

Obama flies in to Wisconsin and demands anti-union Bill be squashed! Walker says Hell No! the standoff continues...





let's replace this stat.....

According to a USA Today/Gallup Poll, 61 percent of respondents "would oppose a law in their state similar to one being considered in Wisconsin," with 33 percent in favor of such a law.

http://news.yahoo.com/s/atlantic/20110222/cm_atlantic/g...

with this one....

Obama's Approval Rating on Deficit Sinks to New Low
http://www.gallup.com/poll/146021/obama-approval-rating...




Of course, let the idea that the bad guys who are currently seen here....

Koch Bros Support WI Union-Busting
http://www.thedemocraticstrategist.org/strategist/2011/...

is replaced with a new boogie man....

White House denies assisting Wis. union, but ties run deep
http://washingtonexaminer.com/blogs/beltway-confidentia...



I say, let these results thus far.....

Backing off? Labor clash in Wisconsin leads Republicans in some other states to tone down talk
http://www.startribune.com/local/116865478.html

turn around to look like this....

2012 GOP Hopefuls See Wisconsin As Obama Bashing Opportunity
http://m.neontommy.com/news/2011/02/2012-gop-hopefuls-s...



Mr. Schultz is a political genius whose has changed many many
things in the lives of Americans! The President should listen to him!
I mean the guy is on radio AND on television!

Ed quote: "And I'm announcing today, I'm not going to vote in the midterms.
I'm not going to do it. You can say it's un-American.
No, it's rather revolutionary is what it is.
I'm at that point. I'm checking out."
http://radioequalizer.blogspot.com/2010/08/msnbc-libtal...




ED SCHULTZ FOR PRESIDENT!




Pres. Obama, please....we need you to walk like an Egyptian!




I think it can work, and if it backfires, well so what?
Who really cares about all of that? It's just an issue that defines
the middle and working class. I say he goes for it, and crosses his fingers
on how it will all end up. He's gonna get the blame anyways, unless it ends
up good, then it won't have anything to do with him anyways.....

But at the very least he'd look strong, loud and.....strong

and after all, results isn't what we really need....nope!
We need to bring this to a head and pop it! We need the President! The ol' regular American
Union folks protesting just ain't enough! We need the one guy that can energize the Right!
See, now you understand, right! Now we are talking!  AlRite?

6. Wonders never cease, we agree 
 perhaps not all the way to actually waking the picket line... (That pesky security) but yes. 



And they are brining the dummies to the gate for the running of the 2011 DOY.  Pace yourselves dummies, this is a full four furlong race an it looks to be a muddy track this year.

Rush was right today when he said if the polls in Wisconsin have to be massively in favor of Gov. Scott Walker or else Obama would be here.

Obama, like all Dems, is essentially a coward and relies on polling data to make decisions.

The DUmpizens can suck their civility out of my balloon knot.
When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.

Obama, like all Dems, is essentially a coward and relies on polling data to make decisions.

Bill O'Reilly just brought up a great point--the only thing that Federal employees can collectively bargain on is personnel matters--not wages, like the teachers in Wisconsin can (and that Gov. Scott Walker is trying to reverse).  The president who changed the law to do that?  Jimmy Carter.  Anyway, if Obama and the Democrats had any guts, they would have changed that in the two years they had a supermajority in the Senate.  They didn't.  So, Obama can't stick his nose in here, because he would rightly be labeled a hypocrite.

Well, apart from the fact that what's happening in WI is a state issue and the big 0 has stuck his nose in too much already...yeah let him go. His poll ratings would drop like a rock because he has no business sticking his nose in where it doesn't belong. Just once when they go on a rant I'd like to have them say something intelligent. But that's about as likely as the Mullahs in Iran becoming Christian and embracing the Jews.

hehehe! Good one, Zeit! ^5!

I wish the empty suit would get involved in state business! I'd luv to see Walker tell him to pound sand and it was nuya bizness! I'd pay good money to see that!

Besides DUmmies, what makes ya think he would get involved in a little teacher temper tantrum? The Middle east is settin' up for WWIII and he's settin' on his hands! Why the **** do you think he cares about teachers?

Hell, he's already done his part for the unions. He hired 200,000 new workers in the gubmint, bought GM for AFLCIO, and bailed states out so they could keep payin' their unfunded pension plans! What more do ya want from the man?

Some things never change.  When Hitler put them on road gangs the Germans enamored with him would ask "Does Hitler know about this?"  When Stalin would put his followers in the gulags they would ask "Does Stalin know of this?" The answer, of course ways an emphatic YES. They were ordering these things to occur but the useful idiots couldn't wrap their small minds around this.

O'bummer is a hypocrite! If it ain't about him and only him, he won't lift a finger. I'm pretty sure he feels he has paid the unions back already for gettin' him elected. Doesn't he still have over 600 million in his re-election piggy bank? He really doesn't need them any more.

It's a whole lot more fun and easier for them to tell the States how to spend their money to benefit Democrat constituencies than it is to do those things with Federal revenue that they would be held to account for in the next election cycle.

"Civility"? What sort of civility, like this?
http://www.realclearpolitics.com/video/2011/02/27/fox_news_correspondent_gets_hit_during_live_broadcast_from_wisconsin.html

Apparently their definition of civility encompasses and is extended to only what supports their agenda. Everything else is evil and therefore subject to be met with violence but that's perfectly o.k. because they are VICTIMS of incivility.
