His is an America where there is no free speach. An America where you may not question the government, because that government is his, not yours. His is an America without a Bill of Rights. His is an America where no law, even the constitution, applies if it gets in his way. His is an America where there are no workers’ rights. The rich don’t have to work, and those who work get no weekends. His is an “ownership society” where there is no health care for those who cannot afford it, and thus disease runs rampant. The rich wall themselves off and wonder how they can be rid of everyone else. His is an America of limits. An America of fear. His is an America of hate, of bile and spitting on those who disagree. His is an America of sunken cities, like New Orleans. A “can’t do” nation. He has shown, in stark contrast, the divide between his conservative vision, and a progressive vision. America is strong because we have high ideals and high standards. We know that we can overcome adversity with no need to lose our souls. While the Republicans cower behind W and Rudy’s tough talk and gladly hand over the constitution, we ask what America is without the constitution. Is this what Patrick Henry asked for? Their America fears everything but fear itself.

NO – Don’t be scared by these people! That’s what they want and they get a kick out of scaring you.

If they yell, you yell louder.

Fight back, stand your ground. If you get pushed, have them hauled away by the police. NO ONE is allowed to physically intimidate you. If the camera wasn’t running, this guy looks like he would have knocked the cameraman down. Good to get his rage on tape in case he does hurt someone in the future.

Wisecup: Itâ€™s un-American to cheer for the imposition of $85 billion of Nancy Pelosi CAFÃ‰ mandates that would destroy the American car companies and the good-paying UAW jobs they provide.

Now, Wisecup is the Chief of Staff for a RepubliCon, yet he has the audacity to mention a UNION? Hmm, can anybody guess which party has spent the last 50 years doing everything in its power to DESTROY the power of unions and, not coincidentally, all those “good-paying” jobs that the unions worked so hard to establish? If the party which has spent the last 50 years trying to destroy unions had succeeded, there wouldn’t be any “good-paying” jobs. Everyone, from fast-food joints all the way up to the auto industry, would be working for slave wages (to say nothing of working 12-16 hour days and working 6 days a week) all in the name of “boosting the corporate bottom line”.
Wisecup needs to spend a month or two OFF the public dole and working a REAL job, before he DARES connect his boss with supporting the UAW in ANY form or fashion.

Rep. Joe Knollenbergâ€™s Chief of Staff Trent Wisecup is claims to be a “spokesperson” for the representative. How would you like to have a millstone like THAT around your neck? Poor lil’ Joey Knollenberg! We probably should send him a condolence card! {:-)

Pelosi is un-American for much different reasons. It’s called the constitution.

This is the same kind of hate Americans faced back in the mid-1950’s during the Joseph McCarthy era. It was ugly then and it is ugly today. It is astonishing how easily these words of hate roll off the lips of such people. They are completely shameless. People like this should never be put in a position of power. Never.

Did I hear Wiseup actually threaten Fealk with jail time for exercising his Freedom of Speech. I mean it sounded like we are so powerful and if you continue we will slap your ass in jail. Seems to me that the Republicans have gone for 7 YEARS without being challenged and now they absolutely cannot handle it.

I wonder what his next job will be after November 2008? What a brownshirt, he needs a little mustach to complete the look.

I love how the guy attacks him for driving a Toyota.

You know who’s fault it is that Ford is going into the crapper?

Ford for make crappy cars, and the Japanese making quality cars.

I thought you guys were all about competition and free markets?

I guess this idea is a one way street.

Why do reichwingers always accuse those with whom they disagree as “un-American”? Do they really think that 70% of the country is un-American? Do they really think we oppose their policies because we hate America? It never occurs to them that it is precisely because we love our country that we oppose them and their small minds.
As much as I despise the Republiscum and their smug, sanctimonious sneering of all things Democratic and liberal; their abhorrence to spending any of their riches on those who are less fortunate; their eagerness to suppress all dissent; their militaristic and simplistic approach to all societal problems, domestic and international. As much as I am repulsed by their philosophy and politics, I don’t think they are un-American.
Perverted and twisted, yes, selfish and authoritarian, yes, but un-American? No.
They apparently have to wear their little flags in case we might question their patriotism – because, by their standard, they are quick to question the patriotism of those who disagree with them.

The amazing thing is that I watched this tape and the staffer doesnâ€™t say what TP says he says. Classic TP straw man attack.

You are not supposed to watch it with blinders and earplugs on….
Just saying….

TP’s report is accurate according to what I saw and heard on the video.

Ladies and Gentleman, I give you all that is wrong with the Republican Party in America! Mr. Trent Wisecup! Trent needs to drink a cup of wisdom if you ask me as it’s obvious he has none of his own.

His anger in his face is kinda funny.

Further proof that the republicons are run by a bunch of LUNATICS!

And to think that a all that they need is imply a good therapist. ;-)

Sooo glad this was caught on camera. It’s really hard to live in the bubble these days, damned reality just keeps pushing its way through. It’s enough to make a wingnut spin into total meltdown…

BTW, here’s a blast from the past:
