SHUT UP! he said…

His Oneness recently traveled to Virginia for gubernatorial candidate Creigh Deeds, and opined that the people who caused the mess should be quiet while he cleans it up.    Watch the video  here.

Of course,  one of the hallmarks of the modern liberal is to endlessly proclaim vast tolerance while failing to practice much of it,  so it was especially entertaining to watch the White House trot out a spokesman in the face of the backlash against the Pelos/Hoyer op-ed calling protesters un-American.

The flack also said Pres. Obama   “thinks that we’re going to be able to have a constructive conversation”  at the town hall meeting in Portsmouth, NH.   No mention of the fact that he tried desperately hard to get the House bill passed before August recess so that there could be no conversation whatsoever.

From the clips I’ve seen,  the hall was stuffed with  supporters and no one was prepared to ask a stiff question,  let alone a tough one.   It was a showcase for Obama to repeat that the health reform bill doesn’t do what it says it does,   and it won’t have the effects it obviously will.     He continued lying,  because if he admitted that the entire scheme is to bring about social justice in health care by the redistribution of resources,   he knows what the majority of Americans would do.

Chris Stirewalt nails Obama perfectly as a man who has forgotten who is speaking truth to power.    We are.

The true AstroTurfers…

We know Obama is trying to light a fire under his grass-roots network,  and aren’t SHOCKED to discover that labor unions have been deployed to quash dissent.    Surely no one is surprised that the Democrats have set up a health-care war room.

But did you realize that the Dems have been advertising for paid “activists”  to assist them since mid-July?    Gracious me — does that mean the mobs-for-hire of ACORN and SEIU are insufficient?    Not to worry,  because His Oneness now has other support,  though Big Pharma may regret that its secret deal with the White House is now public,  not to mention that His Oneness has already said Congress isn’t bound by the agreement.

What His Oneness wants is not a discussion of health care, but for all us ingorant dissenters to shut up because we don’t actually represent citizens,  even though we are citizens.    In fact,  the president is trying to make the silent majority remain silent.   Happily,  the more Obama uses the Chicago Way to attack the citizens of his own country,  the more furious more of them become.   So I hope he continues to smear and slime us,  and that Democratic leaders repeatedly call us un-American,  and that Democratic congress critters keep lying to us about what’s in the health reform bill.

For a quick and tidy update,  check out the Media Research Center’s obama care truth site,  here.
