One of the things that has changed since the shooting in Tucson. The great Obama called for more civility in publi discourse, and here we see what the left calls Civility.
Kate, I may have been gone from here for a few months, but I saw immediately that nothing had changed. Same-old, same-old.
No matter what it is, the left won't condemn anything that comes from their side.
"Live by the sword, die by the sword" is a metaphorical expression meaning that living one's life in a certain way will, in the end, affect one's destiny. Certainly hoffa will have some problems..but, maybe you think..his threats were just fine! Hoffa on Tea Party: 'Let's take those SOBs out'

It's a little like Pavlov's dogs. They have been trained to react with "outrage" every time some right wing blogger or blowhard or talking point pops up telling them to be. I'd bet at this point if Rush got on the air complaining that Obama used Nothern toilet paper instead of Chamin they'd rant all over four or five forums about the horrible implications of it and demand to know why "the left" wasn't condemning such an outrageous aberration.
It doesn't have to make sense, it's just a conditioned response at this point.
Teamsters union president James Hoffa would say it all again if he could, he told TPM Monday.
Hoffa said he’d say the exact same words all over again.
“I would because I believe it,” he said. “They’ve declared war on us. We didn’t declare war on them, they declared war on us. We’re fighting back. The question is, who started the war?”
photo, nice try, the auto unions in Michigan were bailed out by your union pal obama, but not all unions...many are leaving him in droves..the union base is falling away...better start planning obama's losing party this year..ok skippy! packers end up second in div, lose to Vikings one game this year!
The problem in prognosticating is dependability of the subject. In this case having the name Hoffa, makes it a certainty that the tactics would be heavy handed.
Wayn-o:
Who do you think started this so-called war? We all here on this board, know it was started by LJ within mere moments of the Giffords shooting in Tucson.
