Brett Healy at BigGovernment.com rightly points out Democrats in Wisconsin who are beginning to show signs of fear that all of the socialists, communists and radicals who joined the budget circus Democrats created are going too far.
Healy writes:
Just to make sure everyone understands: It is apparently perfectly fine for Democratic lawmakers in Wisconsin to disrupt legislative proceedings by wearing orange t shirts, yelling ‘Shame! Shame!,’ threatening that colleagues are ‘f#&%^!@ dead,’ and running away to Illinois for three weeks to attempt to grind progress on a bill to a halt.
However, now that the public is clearly growing tired of the circus atmosphere, it’s time for a new strategy.
Some of these same elected officials now publicly admonish the people they had inspired, telling protesters they shouldn’t throw public tantrums because “elections matter,” and instead of pitching a fit, they are encouraged by Democratic legislators, to work within the system to bring about change.
I’d like to point out that when you make deals with the Devil; you should not be surprised when he starts to run the show.
Many years ago, I had a good friend tell me a story about a snake:
Once upon a time a man was hiking in the mountains and had walked high enough that there was some snow on the ground and it had gotten very cold. As he walked along he suddenly came upon a rattlesnake curled up and shivering.
The snake said to the man, “Kind sir! Please take me down to where the air is warmer and the snow is gone!”
“Are you crazy?” said the man, “You are a snake and you’ll bite me!”
“No, no! I promise I would never bite you! Especially if you find it in your heart to save my life! That would be wrong and unfair payment for the kindness I’m asking you to do for me!”
The man considered this for a few moments and he saw how cold the snake was. He knew that if he did nothing the snake would die. As the snake continued to shiver until the man made his decision. The man reached down, picked up the snake and began walking down the mountain.
After a little while, the man came to a nice warm, grassy spot that looked like the perfect place to put the snake down. He didn’t realize that the snake had been getting warmer as they walked and so when the man put the snake down, the snake immediately struck and bit the man on the leg.
The man was stunned! “Why did you do that! You promised not to bite me if I brought you down the mountain! I did what you asked and saved your life!”
“You knew I was a snake when you picked me up,” replied the snake.
To Democrats I say: You knew they were radicals when you asked for their help, why are you surprised at what they are doing now?
