Obama sharpens critique of Libya amid wider unrest
February 24th, 2011 . by TexasFredWASHINGTON (AP) - The Obama administration on Wednesday sharpened its condemnation of a bloody crackdown on Libyan opposition demonstrators as it broadened its outreach to government officials, dissidents, rights activists and youth in other Arab nations across a Middle East that is seething with unrest.
Amid the tumult rocking the region, Obama condemned the violence in Libya in the sharpest terms Washington has yet used and directed his administration to prepare a full range of options, including possible sanctions that could freeze the assets and ban travel to the U.S. by Libyan officials. He said he was sending Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton to Geneva for international talks aimed at stopping the bloodshed and formulating a unified global message to Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi.
“The suffering and bloodshed is outrageous and it is unacceptable,” Obama told reporters after meeting with Clinton at the White House. “So are threats and orders to shoot peaceful protesters and further punish the people of Libya. These actions violate international norms and every standard of common decency. This violence must stop.”

But it’s OK to order your SEIU, Teamster, AFL-CIO, UAW, CWA and any other assorted Union thugs to do your bidding and *bloody up* the works. I guess Obama doesn’t think we’ll point that little detail out.
He would be wrong.

Obama did not, however, lay out specific measures he would take if Gadhafi did not respond to the appeals. In part, U.S. officials said, this was because of fears that Gadhafi might order reprisals against Americans and other foreigners still in Libya if threatened with sanctions. A ferry carrying 35 U.S. diplomats and family members along with an unknown number of private Americans was to have left Tripoli for the Mediterranean island of Malta on Wednesday but was delayed due to poor weather.
One thing is a certainty, Obama has NO idea of WHAT to do or how to do it when there is an international crisis. They don’t teach that at *Community Organizer* and Union school.
Here’s a look at what Obama, the Democrats and Unions are really good for.
Democrat urges unions to ‘get a little bloody when necessary’
Sometimes it’s necessary to get out on the streets and “get a little bloody,” a Massachusetts Democrat said Tuesday in reference to labor battles in Wisconsin.
Rep. Michael Capuano (D-Mass.) fired up a group of union members in Boston with a speech urging them to work down in the trenches to fend off limits to workers’ rights like those proposed in Wisconsin.
“I’m proud to be here with people who understand that it’s more than just sending an email to get you going,” Capuano said, according to the Statehouse News. “Every once and awhile you need to get out on the streets and get a little bloody when necessary.”
Political observers have been the lookout for potentially incendiary rhetoric in the wake of January’s shooting in Tucson, Ariz., where Rep. Gabrielle Giffords (D) survived an assassination attempt, six were killed, and 12 others were injured.

And then there’s this;
CWA union thug strikes young female FreedomWorks activist
This is Tabitha Hale, a young conservative activist/original Tea Party organizer/blogger who works for Washington, D.C.-based FreedomWorks. I know her from her great grass-roots work with Smart Girl Politics when the Tea Party movement was just emerging.
Today, Big Labor groups took their Grievance March to the offices of FreedomWorks.
Among the groups protesting: the Communications Workers of America. They’re one of the heavyweight labor biggies that have received a coveted Obamacare Waiver for Favors. CWA facts here.
This is one of the CWA t-shirt-wearing goons who showed up at the protest at FreedomWorks today:

These are Obama’s people! These people are the reason that Obama isn’t too worried about you and me, law abiding Americans that only want the government, and our elected officials, to do the right thing.
Obama has his own private army of thugs. They are called UNION BROTHERS, and their way of making things happen is to break arms and legs, break and bloody the noses of any that dare oppose them, and to hit a woman with a protest sign, knocking her to the ground simply because she is recording the proceedings for posterity.
In regards to the wishes of the Libber-Left and Unions, if it’s WAR they want, if they feel the need to be *bloodied*, then by God, let there be WAR. If they want to get *bloodied*, by all means, lets give them the opportunity to get *bloodied*. Winner takes ALL. No quarter. No Rules of Engagement or silly-assed PC *wuss* rules.
You called down the thunder Democrats! Your god, Obama, sits in his *Ivory Tower* and condemns a guy like Gadhafi for calling the military in on his citizens and for giving the Libyan military and his hired guns, mercenaries, *free fire zone* orders.
Obama HAS his mercenaries, they are called UNION MEMBERS.
Well, let’s see what kind of actions Obama calls for when it’s his Union thugs and goons that are having their asses handed to them. If the situation in this nation isn’t diffused in very short order, the American people will be forced to rise and take back this nation from a dictatorial and Socialistic regime of hatred and anti-American thugs!
Fred - I believe its time for those of us who believe in this Republic to sharpen our shooting skills.
Last year in St. Louis, union thugs beat a Black Conservative at a Tea Party rally. After that, some Tea Party members, who happened to be Black, started arming themselves at rallies. You didn’t hear of any Tea Party members being beaten any more.

Obama sends Hillary Clinton to Geneva? Well, that’ll scare the hell out of the Swiss, but I don’t know how much it’ll rattle Gaddafi. Meanwhile, his foreign policy duties complete, the Sire prepares for the real business of the day-his Motown party. And here I thought this was supposed to be the week he went skiing. The guy’s work is just never done.
Obama is so far in over his head it is scary. He condemns the violence in the middle east but does nothing about it. Meanwhile the left is calling for violence right here in this country and the union thugs are preparing to get violent and what does Obama do? He backs the union thugs. Does this man really think that we won’t notice? What a joke!
