Who’s Conspiring Against Whom?

This communiqué recently came out of Acorn’s offices:

“Now, they're using the same cowardly strategy and scare tactics to stop health care reform.

Worst of all, it's starting to work -- and it's turning ugly fast. Congressional townhall meetings have erupted into shouting matches thanks to right-wing disrupters. Some have even turned violent. At least one opponent of health care reform posted a message on the popular website Twitter urging the public to use firearms if they encounter ACORN members at a community health care discussion. He wrote, "If ACORN/SEIU attends these meetings for disruptive purposes, and you have a license to carry....carry."

So it's no wonder that opponents are actively spreading lies through email and talk radio in an effort to juice up the angry mobs and derail reform.”

It is interesting that not one member of the media seems to remember the tactics used by the left against people like Rush Limbaugh when he tried to host a television special, or against judicial candidate Robert Bork when neither man was allowed to speak even one word without a deafening cascade of shrill whistles and boos. These tactics have been used against conservative causes long before the Democrats had a supermajority. So why are organizations like Acorn and MoveOn.org so worried? Could it be that even those polling organizations the most supportive of Obama should his numbers well below 50%?

MoveOn’s website is posting a list of what it calls “right wing lies” and how to combat them. What most of it boils down to is that they are counting on the massive size of the bill to prevent people from reading it and finding out that those lies are disturbingly rooted in the truth. One of the so-called “right wing extremist groups” consists of doctors who have become familiar with the bill’s provisions, and boy are they upset. "This is war," Dr. George Watson, a Kansas physician and president-elect of the American Association of Physicians and Surgeons, told FOXNews.com Thursday. "This is a bureaucratic boondoggle to grab control of health care. Everything that has been proposed in the 1,018 page bill will contribute to the ruination of medicine."

What proves my earlier point on the absolute control the Democrat Party exercises over its members, even at the cost of their own integrity is what those house members who are Democrats say, “"These people are practicing fear without a license and they should be subject to a malpractice suit.” Jim McDermott, D-Washington.

The AARP, a usual stronghold for the Democrat left is now showing a deep division on the issue. A lot of members express real concern over the use of Medicare funding to pay for Obamacare. AARP’s leadership still maintains that the organization is 100% behind Obama’s plan, but those assertions are sounding weaker and weaker. Hence the ever-growing desperation of neocommunist groups such as Acorn and MoveOn. A number of their members are beginning to take the opposition personally.

Jim Holt writes about what he witnessed at one town hall meeting in Mehlville Missouri. His full report can be found at Pajamas Media.

“Barrack Obama told a crowd of supporters in Philadelphia back in 2008, “If they bring a knife to the fight, we bring a gun.” He added, “That’s the Chicago way.”

Last night in St. Louis, Missouri, a local conservative found out firsthand about the “Chicago way.” Kenneth Gladney, a black conservative from the city, was handing out “Don’t Tread On Me” flags after a Russ Carnahan town hall meeting on health care in Mehlville. This didn’t go over well with the Obama supporters and union thugs who attended the meeting. They punched him in the face, kicked him in the head, and stomped on him on the pavement. So much for hope and change.”

I urge you all to read Jim’s report and remember where our current President came from. Consider the people he has surrounded himself with, felons, thugs, radicals and worse. I mean, he has Hillary Clinton for Secretary of State for God’s sake! One other lovely example is Obama’s Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel. When Rahm, the less radical of the two Emanuel brothers, was an advisor to President Clinton, he used to slam a steak knife into a tabletop and shout the word “Die!” while calling out the names of Clinton’s political rivals. Emanuel is also the instigator of the “rat on your neighbors” policy currently in process at the White House. Nothing more would buck up the hopes of Acorn, MoveOn, The Apollo Alliance and every other radical group within the Obama umbrella than to see America become a fractured country with every neighbor suspicious of the other.

Our history shows why the United States of America became the world’s first and greatest superpower. The reason was us, its people and its culture. A brief lesson in metallurgy is instructive. Metals such as copper, iron and gold are too soft to be of much use under stress. Copper and gold bend and iron breaks, but if you alloy then with another type you get products such as steel and bronze whose discovery altered civilization. America was once known as “the melting pot” and those divergent cultures coming here became a part of the whole, making us stronger and stronger. Now we have enemies within, including the one sitting in the White House, who have worked tirelessly to break up that melting pot into a tepid buffet with all the strength of an overcooked pot noodle.

Helen Thomas, the oldest, longest running White House reporter recently published a column extolling the virtues of Obamacare and how sad it was that mobs of orchestrated right wing radicals were ruining it for all of us. She may be a nice old lady, but she is, as usual, clueless. Just like every other leftist tool, Helen hasn’t read the bill. That wouldn’t show any trust.
