I'd say, by those accounts, it wasn't a dismissive laugh!

The guy who said that is an idiot and the crowd's laughter was most likely a dismissive laugh! If it wasn't the liberal rag that reported it would have said the crowd erupted with laughter! It was an Atlanta Newspaper who first reported it, and they reported it from witnesses sitting near the man. At Rep. Paul Broun’s town hall meeting on Tuesday, the Athens congressman asked who had driven the farthest to be there and let the winner ask the first question.
We couldn’t hear the question in the back of the packed Oglethorpe County Commission chamber, but whatever it was, it got a big laugh. According to an outraged commenter on the article, the question was, when is someone going to shoot Obama? We couldn’t hear the question in the back of the packed Oglethorpe County Commission chamber, but whatever it was, it got a big laugh. Here’s an account from Patsy Harris, a Morgan County Democrat who was sitting in the second row: His exact words were “Who’s going to shoot Obama?” There was a lot of laughter, and a guy behind me said “We all want to.” There was more laughter. I was furiously writing notes and didnt look up to see Broun’s reaction, but it was not until the laughter died down that Broun then said, “Next question.” That elicited more laughter. There was a lot of laughter, and a guy behind me said “We all want to.” There was more laughter. http://athenscms.com/blogs/2487/ |

Rep. Paul Broun (R-GA) is a Tea Party backed candidate.
The man asking the question was a Tea Party voter and the town hall meeting was filled with Tea Partiers. |

Threatening the life of a President is a class D Felony.
Why did he choose to just move on? Witnesses at the Town Hall Meeting said he first laughed with the man. They also said the second question was identical to the first. Again the whole crowd just laughed. |

Broun’s Vitriol Spawns Hate As Constituent Asks Congressman, ‘Who’s Going To Shoot President Obama?’
This past Tuesday Rep. Paul Broun (R-GA) held a town hall meeting in Oglethorpe County, Georgia. During the question and answer session, one constituent asked a particularly outlandish question. As the Athens Banner Herald reports, the questioner asked, “Who’s going to shoot Obama?” The question apparently evoked laughter from the town hall meeting. Rather than outright condemning the suggestion of violence, Broun tried to show empathy for the questioner by saying that he knows “there’s a lot of frustration with this president” and that he hopes we can “elect somebody who’s going to be a conservative” next year: The thing is, I know there’s a lot of frustration with this president. We’re going to have an election next year. Hopefully, we’ll elect somebody that’s going to be a conservative, limited-government president that will take a smaller, who will sign a bill to repeal and replace Obamacare. Out of all of the members Congress, Broun has used perhaps the most vitriolic rhetoric to describe his political opponents, including Obama. He has previously said that Democrats want to take over “all of society,” that the president was spewing “venom” at the State of the Union, that the stimulus and health care laws were going to “kill” the elderly, that clean energy legislation would make southerners die from hyperthermia, and has compared Obama to Hitler, complete with a claim that the president is secretly assembling a version of the Hitler Youth. In a statement provided to the Athens Banner Herald, a Broun spokesman said, “Obviously, the question was inappropriate, so Congressman Broun moved on.” Yet until Broun stops telling his constituents that all of his political opponents are plotting to kill Americans with diabolical fascist plots, he should expect more and more of them to think violence is justified. http://thinkprogress.org/2011/02/25/broun-congressman-shoot-obama/ |

Why won't the Tea Party supporters just admit that they aren't a grassroots organization?
Yeah. whatever happened to that huge Tea Party appearance we were all expecting in Madison? Didn't see a lot about them in the media They weren't paid enough I guess. |

Better to reduce the 'dues' to give their members more ready personal cash and get back to supporting workers at the local levels were they should be. That really isn't your call, now is it? That's between the membership and its officers.

GM's Union workers are set to receive profit-sharing bonus checks averaging over $4,000. Too bad non-union workers at other companies won't be getting anything like that. http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2011-02-14/gm-union-workers-profit-sharing-checks-to-top-4-000-update1-.html I think they deserve this. Esp. after all the pay cuts and benefit cuts they've given up for all these years while the Republicans have cut the trade tariffs which allowed them to build a quality product and compete in their own country fairly. |

I wonder why conservatives/Tea partiers won't respond to this thread?
Burying and ignoring the truth won't save America from the support you give so blindly to these people. |

is it really a news flash that labor interests are putting their financial resources behind anti-conservative factions? Let's put that to rest: HEY, EVERYBODY IN THE WORLD! PEOPLE WHO ARE LEFT WING AND/OR ARE ON THE SIDE OF WORKING PEOPLE ARE AGAINST THE CONSERVATIVE AGENDA AND WILL BRING ANYTHING TO LIGHT THAT EXPOSES THE RIGHT WING AGENDA IN AMERICA. Got that? BANG! How about that? Right on my friend. Why won't the Tea Party supporters just admit that they aren't a grassroots organization? Admit that they want corporations to run this country? Admit they support the very interests they so claim they are against instead of fooling themselves and trying to make patsies out of others? Me thinks they have bitten off more than they realize. Me thinks they believe they can get financial support from these corporations and then some how come out holding a rose later. Me thinks they think they can use these powerful interests to destroy Obama, a black President, and then somehow reverse the mess they've created later. Me thinks they are fooling themselves. Me thinks they won't be able to chew what they are biting off. |

So... Both political parties, the Unions, several 'thinktanks', a few 501(3)c's and a plethora of 'ideological' groups have been using psyops on the American public for years. (indeed on the whole world). Not to mention several major religions that have been doing it for decades. How about because it's illegal? How about because the Military doesn't run this country? |

Here's another one,
Nuclear Services The Wackenhut Corporation provides armed security services for many nuclear power plants. In September 2007, former employee Kerry Beal and Paul A. Kennedy videotaped fellow security guards at the Peach Bottom Nuclear Generating Station sleeping while on duty. Beal had previously tried to notify supervisors at Wackenhut and the US Nuclear Regulatory Commission. Wackenhut was fired from its role guarding Peach Bottom and nine other nuclear plants. http://www.ask.com/wiki/Wackenhut I think I'd rather have the Union! |

And this,
Wackenhut and Miami-Dade A dispute between Wackenhut and Miami-Dade Transit arose from allegations made by a former employee, who claimed that G4S Wackenhut over-billed Miami-Dade County for work not performed. As a result of the allegations of that lawsuit, the County ordered an audit of the contract in 2005. That audit was completed in 2009 and came up with an amount of estimated overbillings. In response, G4S Wackenhut filed a lawsuit in federal court alleging, among other things, that the audit’s findings were erroneous. In February 2010 the issue was resolved. Miami-Dade County commissioners approved a $7.5 million settlement agreement with Wackenhut Corp. to resolve the dispute.

Truth... By switching to a non public employeer Mr. Walker saved that county a LOT of money... (which of course the arbitrator reversed). Non public employeers do not take their workers retirement from the public funds... ergo way less in long term costs. I am suspicious of the arbitration process in this... Someone did not do all the math. LMAO They don't? They do **** like this, Janet Chandler In 1979, hotel clerk and Hope College senior Janet Chandler was found dead in a snowbank along Interstate 196 near Holland, Michigan. She had been raped. Initially treated as a robbery, the case remained unsolved until a group of Hope students produced a documentary that uncovered a sex and drugs party atmosphere at the hotel, which had been occupied by dozens of Wackenhut security guards (assigned to protect the facilities of local manufacturer Chemtron during a bitter strike). The documentary prompted a reopening of the case, and arrests of six security guards and a hotel supervisor who was Chandler's roommate. In November 2007, two individuals plead guilty to charges, and the remaining four then-guards were additionally found guilty of her murder.
