Dirty Tricks

Richard Nixon would blush at the dirty tricks the left is pulling these days. Like members of the Congressional Black Caucus claiming Tea Party protesters spat on them and called them names when video shows none of this to be true. That didn’t stop CNN from reporting it as fact, however.

Or the Harry Reid supporters who showed up at the Tea Party rally in Searchlight, Nevada and started throwing eggs. Then they called police! I guess they claimed someone had egged them on. (Sorry, couldn’t resist.) It’s all recorded on video at BigGovernment.com. The offender caught on tape was from the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers.

But that’s all bush league compared to what the thugs on the left have in store for the attorneys general who dare to challenge the constitutionality of Obamacare. There are several angles:

Democrats in Florida are hitting back hard, demanding an audit of [attorney general] Bill McCollum’s office, and pointing out the huge waste of state money his suit is.

That from a post on the far-left Daily Kos. Remember the hit back twice as hard quote from Obama? Remember also the leftist tactic of making it personal, the ad hominem attacks. Forget the merits of the case, go after the man. Here in El Paso County, Colorado, the local Democrat Party is calling for the recall of Attorney General Suthers. Really? For questioning the constitutionality of the bill?

These tactics speak of desperation and thuggery. If you can’t convince with logic and reason, intimidate. I’m afraid it’s going to get worse before it gets better.
