Bullying from the White House
The Obama administration loves to point a finger at GW Bush and tell you how “different” their administration is going to be. MSM cheerleaders help them along with hateful and lewd remarks when anyone from the GOP makes the news. Fortunately, for us, they have celebrities like Jeannine Garafolo to show us what they’re really like…and Joe Biden, and Nancy Pelosi.
I wonder if Garafolo read Alinsky or does she just get her talking points from someone else? Either way, her remarks follow the Alinsky tactics.
We’re beginning to see that Obama and Bush may not be all that different. If anything, Obama’s Chicago pol training, along with Emanuel and Axelrod, has learned how to bully and bend rules when it comes to the Constitution of the United States. It’s no wonder he would choose “empathy” over law.
I’ve been saying for a while now, if you want to know Obama just read Saul Alinsky and you’ll have a good image. Some people are actually starting to do just that.
Here are some reads conservatives would do well to consider.
Documents confirm Treasury bullied banks
John Hinderaker-May 14, 2009
(During Bush administration) …meeting on October 13, 2008, at which they were told that their banks would be required to accept TARP money and give the federal government an ownership interest in their institutions, whether they wanted to do so or not. http://www.powerlineblog.com/
Tincture of lawlessness – Obama’s Overreaching Economic Policies
By George F. Will-Thursday, May 14, 2009
But the Service Employees International Union collects nearly $5 million a month from 223,000 caregivers who are members. And the Obama administration has told California that unless the $74 million in cuts are rescinded, it will deny the state $6.8 billion in stimulus money.

The administration proposes that Chrysler’s secured creditors get 28 cents per dollar on the $7 billion owed to them but that the United Auto Workers union get 43 cents per dollar on its $11 billion in claims — and 55 percent of the company. This, even though the secured creditors’ contracts supposedly guaranteed them better standing than the union.http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2009/05/13/AR2009051303014_pf.html
The Treasury apparently has CLOUT in capital letters. Having a guy like Geithner (my Turbo Tax made me do it) in that powerful position isn’t at all reassuring—but then neither is Nancy Pelosi (the CIA lied) as third in line for the presidency.
The more we see the Obama administration in action, the clearer Rahm Emanuel’s words become…”never let a crisis go to waste.”
Cheer up! George Soros didn’t let it go to waste –he bet against the US economy and gained $2.9 billion dollars. He’s having a good crisis.
