(If Jimmy wants his war, well......
Van Jones and Stephen Lerner are readying to fire the first salvos on September 17th this, in their Days Of Rage demonstration on Wall Street. Mr Lerner spoke longingly and fervently earlier this year of bringing the American economy down starting with this event.)
"Evidently, Hoffa Jr, Obama, and the union leadership goon squads think they can sell the TEA Party to the nation as dangerous vermin in need of a good old fashioned hard-hat stomping — as if these are the heady days of 1970, and Peter Boyle is union man Joe, stompin’ on some hippies.
Listen to the rhetoric coming even from Congresspeople on the left — not just organized labor goons, “sober” academics, or flaccid white leftwing bloggers playing at keyboard commando — and it is clear that Obama and the progressives, erstwhile so concerned over the need for “civility,” are preparing the ground for civil unrest in 2012, laying the framework in which the racist anti-government anti-worker anti-immigrant anti-gay anti-woman extremist TEA Partiers are targeted for attacks, both physically and by way of an orchestrated propaganda campaign engaged in jointly by establishment political leaders and the mainstream press.
The physical attacks will be perfunctorily condemned, but in the same “intellectual” way the 911 attacks were condemned on the Marxist left: yes, violence is wrong, we’ll be told, and we’re not in any way supporting the attackers. BUT, the attacks are merely blowback against the racism, extremism, xenophobia, etc., of those who insist on following flawed documents, and cutting spending (which amounts to voting for dirty air, dirty water, unemployment, starving children and old people, an end to public education, etc., etc.).
The entirety of Obama’s life and political career were necessarily leading to just such a moment — and it was easy to see for those who were only willing to open their eyes.
This is who the left is. It has always been thus.
But what they’re not counting on is the willingness of the masses to fight back — and in a way I don’t think the left has adequately understood.
The revolution is coming, alright. Only the left has misunderstood just who it is who represents The People"
