Obama goes from healer in Tucson to agitator in Wisconsin

Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker

What a difference a month makes. On January 8, 2011 House Representative Gabrielle Giffords was shot in the head in Tucson Arizona. In the aftermath of this event President Obama became the great healer and he encouraged everyone to come together and stop criticizing. President Obama was solemn, gave great speeches and for a while became the Saint-in-Chief commanding people to behave and show civility.

A little over a month goes by and he now gets involved in the Wisconsin dispute between government employees and the governor. Obama is now the spearhead of a socialist revolution in Wisconsin. Forget the civility and attack, attack, attack. It turns out that Obama lieutenants in Washington carefully organized the mayhem and chaos now unfolding in Wisconsin.

This president has got a nasty streak in him. He opened his big mouth getting in the middle of the internal affaires of Egypt and got the head of that country thrown out. Now Egypt is in chaos. This has also touched off a domino effect where neighboring countries are also rioting and spiraling out of control in total chaos. The situation is such that no one knows who controls the region and how destructive the chaos will be to oil flow. Have you seen the price of gasoline lately?

“Widespread collapse of the American protectorate in the Arab world

Basically, we can consider that the events in Tunisia and Egypt have acted as a double trigger violently uprooting the entire Arab world (and the Middle East) of the world before the crisis, a world characterized by the omnipresence of a guardian power, the United States, managing the imbalances in this region with only two concerns: to control the price of oil and ensure Israel’s security.”

Things apparently have gone so well for the president in the Middle East, that maybe he thought he would organize an entire political machine to see how he could destabilize Wisconsin where the govern of the sate Scott Walker is getting death threats.

Why Obama and the Dems Blundered in Wisconsin

February 21, 2011 – by Richard Pollock

‘The plan [to destabilize Wisconsin]seems to have been born both within the war room of the Democratic National Committee and within the Oval Office. The overall coordination for the operation was the remnants of the president’s 2008 political campaign organization, Organizing for America (OFA). The strategy would be launched by the DNC and by the president, who, during the height of the Egyptian crisis, incongruously granted an exclusive interview to a Milwaukee TV reporter over union policy. While Cairo burned, he took time to decry a Wisconsin governor’s effort to rein in the budget and limit union benefits. Shaping the narrative for the attack, he said that Gov. Scott Walker’s effort “seems like more of an assault on unions.”

The Wisconsin political blitzkrieg on Gov. Walker was not a spontaneous eruption. It is now clear that it was a highly organized operation planned in Washington, D.C., to unleash a national counterattack on the gains made by Republicans and Tea Party activists. Getting OFA and the president to act in close coordination was itself no small feat. The plan included busing in thousands of government employees, arranging for Democratic lawmakers to flee to an adjoining state, flying speakers and political organizers into Madison, organizing thousands to leave their jobs in public safety and in classrooms, and staging rallies inside and outside the statehouse. They even enticed sympathetic doctors to draft bogus doctor excuses for government workers.’ More…

We now know that the chaos befalling Wisconsin was planned from the president’s 2008 political campaign organization Organizing for America (OFA). We wonder at this point how far the president is willing to go to impose his will on Americans.

The people of Arizona over the last 24 months have had a taste of the flogging and whippings of the Obama Justice Department. This was done through legal means and there was a minimum of civil unrest. These new developments in Wisconsin are now in totally fresh territory. The president is actively participating in encouraging civil unrest, rioting, and destruction of a state economy and property. Is this sinking in? We wonder if  Obama was so impressed with his results in the Middle East that he would bring the same kinds of successes in Wisconsin. That must be it.
