Leftist Techniques For Obfuscating An Issue

Over at Big Government, there are trolls leaving comments trying to defend the "Kill Scott Walker" crowd by projecting the hate onto the right or simply refusing to answer a direct question. I realize this is nothing new for the useful idiots who really think America is bad and we are the direct cause of all the world's ills. However, the comments can get a little, shall we say, silly.

Case in point: carlhowdy has been responding to my queries about conservative violence and hate-speech. I'm asking him to provide evidence or links to any that he knows of. Keep in mind that in the comment below in italics, carlhowdy is responding to my dismissal of him because he has, up to this point, refused to answer a direct question and I have very little patience debating a three-year old.

I certainly agree that you may as well go on your way. You don't make sense, and all you are interesting in doing is to be insulting and abusive. That may make you feel good to wallow in your hate, but you obviously don't have anything of worth to add. Too bad that so many people have the same mindset. The country is already paying a big price because of people like you, and the future doesn't look good. You will find that hate in your heart will eventually make you sick and destroy you. I advise you to give it up. My neighbor is caught in the same kind of hate as you are, and she now has cancer, and after a year of chemotherapy, she is no better. Yet she sits and takes her dose of hate-mongering everyday from hate-radio. She still defends her hate, much the same as you do, and she denies that she hates anyone, but her body manifests otherwise. So take heed before you end up in the same trap.

So my question regarding evidence of conservative hate-speech or violence is being insulting and abusive and his neighbor has cancer and its hate-radio's fault? Excuse me while I roll on the floor laughing hysterically. OK better now. Ya gotta admit, this is funny stuff.

Here's the thing; no one can be that stupid and still be a functioning member of society. It's just not possible. I'm beginning to think old carlhowdy is deliberately exhibiting blatant stupidity just to get a reaction from me that he can point to and say "See see, you do hate me." The left has people who do that. They're not the rabid, flag-burning leftist extremist, they're the calm reasonable one who, while rambling on and on about right wing hate radio, refuses to engage in a serious debate, and stays in your face uttering absolute absurdities until you, frustrated at this juvenile behavior, react with a stream of invectives and you wind up telling old carlhowdy to go have winged intercourse with a round mobile pastry. Then they have you on their level and they have won.

Stay frosty. Stay above the din and the rancor. If they know they can't get a reaction out of you, they will eventually reveal their true colors.

Obama's Top Aide Gaspard Tied to ACORN
Monday, September 28, 2009 2:40 PM
By: David A. Patten

Patrick Gaspard, considered one of the most powerful figures in the Obama White House, is a "longtime ACORN operative" and former union official, according to a report posted Monday on the American Spectator's online blog.

Gaspard's name recently surfaced as the official President Obama dispatched to urge beleaguered New York Gov. David Paterson not to run for another term. Paterson insists he'll continue to run for governor even without Obama's support.

Gaspard has extensive ties to organized labor and community-organizing groups. One measure of his influence in the White House: He holds the same "political affairs director" title that belonged to Karl Rove during the Bush administration.

The Spectator's Matthew Vadum, a senior editor at the Capital Research Center think tank, reported that Gaspard was the New York political director for top ACORN official Bertha Lewis before 2003. Lewis is the CEO and "chief organizer" for ACORN, which is the subject of more than a dozen investigations for vote-registration fraud nationwide.

The House and Senate recently moved to cut off ACORN funding after a series of videos revealed the willingness of its staff to help establish a reputed child-prostitution ring based in San Salvador. Obama refused to support ending federal funding for ACORN, however, telling ABC: "It's not something I'm paying a lot of attention to."

Vadum cited the blog maintained by ACORN founder Wade Rathke, ChiefOrganizer.org, as his source for the Gaspard-ACORN link.

In May, Rathke described how officials of the Service Employees International Union (SEIU) teamed up with HealthCare Reform Czar Nancy-Ann DeParle to pry big price concessions from private health firms.

Speaking of the advantage that comes from having powerful friends in high places, Rathke wrote: "Tell me that (Local) 1199’s former political director, Patrick Gaspard (who was ACORN New York’s political director before that) didn’t reach out from the White House and help make that happen, and I’ll tell you to take some remedial classes in 'politics 101.'"

The Spectator described Gaspard "ACORN's Man in the White House." It also reported that he was national field director in 2004 for American Coming Together (ACT), a get-out-the-vote organization.

The FEC hit ACT with a $775,000 fine for campaign-finance violations — one of the largest FEC fines ever — and it reportedly ceased operations in 2005.

Gaspard also worked for eight years for SEIU Local 1199, a hospital workers local, according to the Village Voice.

The Spectator report detailed what it calls the "fuzzy" line between the SEIU and ACORN.
Vadum reported that SEIU Local 880 and the SEIU Local 100 that Rathke heads are "part of the ACORN network of organizations."

He reported that the locals were listed as such on ACORN's Web site, buts the references recently were removed.

"Tightly Scripted Events"??

Health reformers targeting 'enemies'

(page 1 of 6) View Entire Story
The plan for a series of grass-roots demonstrations Tuesday to promote President Obama's health care agenda calls for tightly scripted events and an "escalation" of efforts against "enemies" of reform.
Organizers insist there is no comparison to rowdy summer town hall meetings and recent "tea party" protests that have challenged White House policies.
But Health Care for America Now (HCAN), which is backed by a coalition of labor unions and liberal groups including ACORN and MoveOn.org, organized the protests to target insurance companies and drafted the plan, which describes the demonstrations as part of its "insurance enemies project."
The document, a copy of which was obtained by The Washington Times, details specific talking points, tactics, props and strategies to stage the protests. It lists goals that include action that "mobilizes our base by animating existing anger about private insurers."

More :Little Known Facts About SEIU

Glenn is preparing to put the Service Employees International Union in the spotlight. Its about damn time somebody informed America about this pernicious bunch of leftist vermin.

Let me tell you what else SEIU does...

In March of 2005 Code Pink set up their death vigil at Walter Reed Army Medical Center, in Washington DC, under the guise of "concern for the wounded". Their justification was the Bush administration was "sneaking" wounded soldiers from the Iraq theater into Walter Reed under the cover of darkness so "Amrica wouldn't find out how many soldiers were actually being wounded."

They lined the sidewalk along Georgia Ave at the Main Gate in front of the hospital on Friday nights with flag-draped coffins and held signs which proclaimed "Your Son Was Maimed for a Lie"; "Sign Up Here To Die For Halliburton".

I have a ton of stories from wounded soldiers and their families who told me in no uncertain terms that they hated these people and wanted them gone. Imagine going to visit your loved one in an Army hospital on Friday night and having to endure a bunch of anti-war, anti-military protesters. A few Blue Star Moms almost went to jail over this.

SEIU provided "boots on the ground" for the marxist hags from code pink because no one really wanted to set up a war protest in front of an Army hospital filled with soldiers hurt in that war.
They also recruited homeless people and what I can only describe as "thugs" to intimidate the growing counter-protest organized by the DC Chapter of Free Republic.

(The story continues here) this is from March 30, 2005

This link is the one that made history. January 21, 2006

and if you scroll down this page, on the right side there are links with the tag "Shameless Self Promotion". Just saying. (Hint: Michelle Malkin) Andi's doesn't work anymore.

According to some of the "participants" we have managed to speak with, SEIU requires it's members to take part in this demonstration. They are still there, in significantly reduced numbers, half a block down from the Main Gate. They still think their presence is good for the morale of the wounded.

They are idiots and Marxists and loathe our military and have no regard for Duty, Honor, or Country.
