"A wise and frugal government which shall restrain men
from injuring one another, which shall leave them otherwise free to regulate their own pursuits of industry and improvement, and shall not take from the mouth of labor the bread it has earned. This is the sum of good government."

Cuban blogger Yoani Sanchez detained, beaten on way to march

You may be asking why we are posting this story but frankly it sounds like what has happened in this Country during the Congressional Town Hall events. We are sure all of you remember St. Louis where the SEIU thug attacked a young black man at the Cong Carnahan Town Hall. What was his crime? He dared to be handing out 'Don't Tread on Me' flags when he was attacked which was caught on video. The young man ended up at the emergency room after the attack by SEIU thugs (Prairie Pundit).

Over the course of the summer SEIU thugs intimidated and shoved people all over America attending these Town Halls against healthcare.

Radthke, a good friend of Obama, was a founder of the SEIU along with ACORN. Where was the denouncement out of the White House at the tactics of SEIU this summer? Crickets chirping but then we would expect no less from an Administration who dropped charges against the New Black Panthers in Philadelphia who were charged with voter intimidation. The charges were dropped against the advice of the career DOJ lawyers. What kind of a message did that send to SEIU, New Black Panther, and other thug groups doing the President's bidding? They can do whatever they want and get a slap on the wrist from this Administration. Radthke had his thugs out in force at the Town Halls we would bet at the request of Valerie Jarrett.

Would someone explain to us what is the difference in what happened to this blogger in Cuba and what happened to Ken Gladney, the black conservative the SEIU thugs attacked.

The verbal attacks by this Administration on anyone who disagrees are giving ammunition to the SEIU thugs and New Black Panthers to take things into the own hands to physically attack anyone who disagrees with Obama.

Americans better wake up and ask themselves is this what Obama intends if we don't stand up to him now!!!

Cuban blogger Yoani Sanchez detained, beaten on way to march

Cuba's best-known blogger Yoani Sanchez said state security officials seized and assaulted her in an effort to block her participation in a march against violence.

Famed Cuban blogger Yoani Sanchez said Friday she and another blogger were punched and thrown violently into a car by presumed state security agents as they walked to participate in a peaceful march in downtown Havana.

``No blood, but black and blues, punches, pulled hairs, blows to the head, kidneys, knee and chest,'' Sánchez told El Nuevo Herald shortly after she and Orlando Luis Pardo were freed. ``In sum, professional violence.''

``I, being a person of verbal pacifism, am shaken by this violence, because violence silences anyone,'' the blogger declared in a telephone interview.
Sánchez, the best-known Cuban blogger on the island and off, said she and bloggers Pardo and Claudia Cadelo and a woman friend were walking to join a ``march against violence'' organized by several young musicians when they were intercepted by three men in civilian clothes. Cuba's state security service agents frequently operate out of uniform.
