White House to Democrats: ‘Punch back twice as hard’ – Carrie Budoff Brown – POLITICO.com.

They showed video clips of the confrontational town halls that have dominated the media coverage, and told senators to do more prep work than usual for their public meetings by making sure their own supporters turn out, senators and aides said.

And they screened TV ads and reviewed the various campaigns by critics of the Democratic plan.

“If you get hit, we will punch back twice as hard,” Messina said, according to an official who attended the meeting.

Isn’t that a line from The Godfather?  No. That’s right, it was The Untouchables. Hmm. Interesting. I liked that movie a lot, and loved the character Sean Connery played. “Isn’t that just like a mick to bring a knife to a gun fight.” (Can we still say, mick.) But they were fighting the mob in that movie. Not the citizens.

Calm the hell down Barack, you are the President of the United States. Have some respect for yourself if you can’t find a way to have any respect for another human being just because they have a different opinion about the way you are running OUR country. You have had your every whim catered to since you got in and passed a 2 trillion dollar deficit and you are killing us. I think you are screwing up and I am mad about it. I want it to stop. You want to bully me into shutting up, forget about it. You need to rethink all this bull crap. You are even insisting our elected officials READ THE DAMN BILLS THEY ARE SIGNING INTO LAW. WHY DONT YOU CARE ABOUT ANY OF THESE THINGS MR. PRESIDENT?!?!?!?

Another line stolen from that movie Barack has thrown out there. “If they bring a knife, you bring a gun.”

“If they bring a knife to the fight, we bring a gun,” Obama said in Philadelphia last night. “Because from what I understand, folks in Philly like a good brawl. I’ve seen Eagles fans.”

Seriously? What the hell is going on? What is happening to us?

I’m really losing faith here…..

Read this. ‘You Are Terrifying Us’

I lost my cousin on March 3, 2009. He had lived with my family as a brother for many years and I will miss him very much. The Kirk Babbitt Memorial Blog has more about Kirk. Get to know him a little bit. The plans are to provide audio of the funeral and post the tribute video that his co-workers created for us. There are some stories there, and I encourage you to post yours if you have one. It is important that his children know who Kirk is.

So, unitl we meet again, Kirky. You may have to come visit me from where you are to where I will be, but you will always be welcome.
