Eyeful in Gaza
Been there. Smart Alec Baldwin. Pure fantasy accounting. Tea time in D.C. Plus more.

Mr. President,
As the early colonists of the USA did on December 16, 1773 I am starting a Washington DC Tea Party for the same reason as they did: TOO MANY TAXES. THE STIMULUS TAX INCREASE is the straw that broke the taxpayers back.
This is my token way of tossing YOUR TEA into Boston Harbor. I will be contacting as many people as I can to do the same thing if they feel the government is overtaxing us. We need TAX RELIEF, not a bunch of NEW TAXES. No reply necessary, except to start putting the taxpayer first.
I encourage anyone who feels the stimulus bill is the tax that broke the taxpayers back to do the same, and to send a tea bag to each of your members of Congress. Please pass this idea along to others. Send the president and members of Congress a tea bag, and include a SHORT, polite letter explaining why you are doing it. The address to send it to the president is:
The White House
1600 Pennsylvania Ave. NW
Washington, D.C. 20500
— John Dickey

David Reich (no relation to Robert I pray) is dead on.
I expand upon the Marxist president obama's actions so far in light of the rule book from which The Messiah is reading, Alyinsky's Rules for Radicals. Does any of this ring a bell?
1, Look for ways to increase insecurity, anxiety and uncertainty. (Warning of catastrophe, chaos, depression, malaise...the currency of obama and his henchmen). Watch how many organizations under attack are blind-sided by seemingly irrelevant arguments that they are then forced to address)
2, Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it." Cut off the support network and isolate the target from sympathy. Go after people and not institutions; people hurt faster than institutions. Witness: the full frontal attacks on Rush Limbaugh and earlier, Sarah Palin.
3, Ridicule is man's most potent weapon. There is no defense. It's irrational. It's infuriating. It also works as a key pressure point to force the enemy into concessions.
4, Keep the pressure on. Never let up." Keep trying new things to keep the opposition off balance. As the opposition masters one approach, hit them from the flank with something new. (Attack, attack, attack from all sides, never giving the reeling organization a chance to rest, regroup, recover and re-strategize) (Do all the rapid-fire trillion-dollar congressional appropriations now make sense?)
5, The threat is usually more terrifying than the thing itself. (create doomsday scenarios...buzzwords, "crisis, catastrophic."
Folks, you are seeing The Plan in action.

The results will be the same, because it's the same type of people who is trying to create WIII, they too were Bankers too.
All they do is keep creating the sampe plots because they work. High Unemployment, then they will be rounding people up, for their FEMA death Camps.
Nazis are back in full swing. Buy all the guns but you'll not be able to buy any bullets.
Obama is the Judas, Hitler was the Jewdas the last time. What is happening in Gaza will be happening on Americas street soon.
