We haven't written much on the Gladney case because the counselor's office has been moving forward, interviewing witnesses, sorting through information, and that was the goal all along.
While there are quite a few issues that still need to be cleared up between Redington and McCulloch on who has jurisdiction and whether charges can be brought that are more serious - we're going to keep our powder dry for the moment.
But in light of Andrew Breitbart's efforts to bring this story to life, I figured I'd give you a sneak preview of a script that's being pitched to Hollywood right now.
AndyStern: You want answers?
AndrewBreitbart: I think I'm entitled to them.
Stern: You want answers?
Breitbart: I want the truth!
Stern: You can't handle the truth! Son, we live in a political world that runs on money. And that money has to be paid for by someone. Who's gonna do it? You? Maybe your precious Tea Partiers? I have a greater responsibility than you can possibly fathom. You weep for Kenneth Gladney and you curse SEIU. You have that luxury. You have the luxury of not knowing what I know: that Gladney's beating, while tragic, made this union stronger. And my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, will bring us single payer healthcare...You don't want the truth. Because deep down, in places you don't talk about at parties, you want me on that picket line. You need me on that picket line.We use words like brotherhood, equality, social justice...we use these words as the backbone of a lie for a greater good. You use them as a punchline. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the work of the government employees I organize, then questions the manner in which I organize them! I'd rather you just said thank you and went on your way. Otherwise, I suggest you pick up a card check and start handing over dues on the first of the month. Either way, I don't give a damn what you think you're entitled to!
Breitbart: Did you order the code purple?
Stern: (quietly) I did the job you sent me to do.
Breitbart: Did you order the code purple?
Stern: You're g-damn right I did!!
The idea came from this Big Government post, where photographic evidence of Perry Molens changing into his SEIU colors before attacking Kenneth Gladney was never fully explained.
