Yesterday’s news became big news on the Fox News Channel last week when former New York City Mayor Rudolph Giuliani brought up the name of President Barack Obama’s childhood mentor, Frank Marshall Davis. It was almost seven years to the day when we published our seminal piece about Davis, “Obama’s Communist Mentor.”
Davis was a member of the Communist Party and a suspected Soviet espionage agent. He was included in the FBI’s security index, meaning that Davis could be arrested or detained in the event of a national emergency. The FBI file on Davis documents his anti-white and pro-Soviet views, infiltration of the Hawaii Democratic Party, and other activities.
Davis also wrote an autobiographical and pornographic sex novel, Sex Rebel, disclosing that he had sex with a young girl and engaged in shocking and bizarre sexual activities.
Giuliani’s public identification of Davis and discussion of his role in grooming a young Barack Obama marks the first time, in my memory, that a top Republican has ever mentioned the Davis-Obama relationship. It was done in the context of Fox News’ Megyn Kelly of questioning how Giuliani could dare ask whether Obama loves America.
If the Republicans had brought this up during the 2008 campaign, Obama might have been defeated and the country could have been spared the last six years of “progressive” hope and change. The Davis-Obama relationship is something so damaging and corrupt that its public airing would have raised questions about the Democratic Party’s vetting of Obama and the direction of the Democratic Party itself.
However, Republican operative Karl Rove was warning Republicans not to accuse Obama of being a socialist. He said such a charge would generate a negative backlash. The result in 2012 was another Obama victory.
Now that it has become apparent to more and more people that Obama is not a traditional liberal Democrat and is, in fact, a Marxist with Muslim sympathies, a figure such as Giuliani feels compelled to speak out. So let’s take a look at what Giuliani said.
“I don’t feel it. I don’t feel this love of America,” Giuliani said, talking about Obama. “I’m talking about a man who grew up under the influence of Frank Marshall Davis who was a member of the Communist Party, who he refers to over and over in his book, who was a tremendous critic of the United States.”
Kelly countered that Obama “was raised in part by his grandparents. His grandfather served in World War II, his grandmother worked in a munitions plant to help the nation during World War II. I mean, to suggest he was raised by people who don’t love America or didn’t help him learn to love America.”
Giuliani argued that “his grandfather introduced him to Frank Marshall Davis, who was a communist.” He added, “You can fight in World War II, and then you introduce someone to a Communist and the young boy gets…”
After Kelly interjected that “it’s a political world view. It’s not a hatred for the country,” Giuliani responded, “Communism wasn’t hatred for America?”
Giuliani is correct about the Davis influence over Obama and the role that the grandfather played in picking Davis as a mentor.
But when Giuliani notes that Obama refers to Davis “over and over in his book,” Dreams from My Father, it’s important to point out that Davis was not identified as Frank Marshall Davis in that book. Instead, Obama identified him merely as “Frank.” The rest of the story was put together by anti-communist researcher Trevor Loudon, and we confirmed the identification with another source in Hawaii who was a close friend of Davis.
Even more of the story was put together by Paul Kengor in his authoritative book on Davis, The Communist. It appears that Davis was an influence over Obama for about nine full years, until Obama was 18 and went off to college. Obama went off to college and, by his own admission, would attend socialist conferences and pick Marxist professors as his friends.
This relationship alone would have disqualified Obama from getting low-level federal employment. The loophole in our system is that background checks are not required for federal elected officials. Our founders counted on a free press to review the fitness of those running for office.
When former Obama adviser David Axelrod talks about Obama being free from major scandals, he is ignoring the biggest scandal of all—how Obama concealed his Marxist upbringing and relationship with Davis. Axelrod of course was part of the cover-up. When “Frank” was identified as Davis, the Obama campaign insisted he was just a civil rights activist.
As we reported at the time, news organizations such as the Associated Press, The Washington Post, Newsweek and even Fox News ignored or downplayed Davis’s communist sympathies.
As Giuliani indicated, there are other influences on Obama that help explain his anti-Americanism. These include the “community organizing” philosophy of Saul Alinsky, his pastor Jeremiah Wright and the communist terrorists Bill Ayers and Bernardine Dohrn.
Giuliani clearly feels, at this stage in Obama’s presidency, that some things have to be said openly for the sake of the country. A former crime-busting U.S. Attorney who was mayor of New York City at the time of 9/11, Giuliani fears for the future of our country. But it’s not just the fate of America that is at stake. It is clear that Obama has no love for America’s traditional allies, such as Israel. Hence, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is coming to America to plead his case personally. He is afraid that Obama wants to make a deal that will allow Iran to acquire nuclear weapons.
Now that Giuliani has publicly raised some inconvenient truths about Obama, the “progressives” and their media allies will naturally scream and cry “McCarthyism.” Strangely taking this tack, Fox News’ Kelly wondered if Giuliani’s comments about Obama had damaged “the Republican brand.” The Republican brand will only be damaged by an inability to face facts and confront and expose anti-Americanism at the highest levels of the United States government. It is shocking that it has taken this long for the evidence to emerge publicly on a national basis on Fox News and other channels.
This controversy will help determine what direction the Republicans will take. The Washington Post’s Dana Milbank, who has made it his job to protect Obama from the fallout from major scandals, was quick to label Giuliani’s remarks about Obama as “stupid.” He also attacked Wisconsin Republican Governor Scott Walker as “spineless” for saying Giuliani “can speak for himself,” and not directly challenging what the former mayor had said
“What Scott Walker did ought to disqualify him as a serious presidential contender,” wrote Milbank.
This is a signal from one of Obama’s best friends in the media that the information unearthed by Giuliani is of the blockbuster variety. Giuliani went for the jugular and hit a gusher.
The first thing Republicans can do is simply challenge the media to report on the Davis FBI file. They have been avoiding it for over six years.
Congress could also investigate Obama’s communist connections, which stretch from Hawaii to Chicago, and question the FBI about what they knew, if anything, about the Obama-Davis relationship. The reestablishment of House and Senate internal security committees, including a loyalty program for U.S. officials to eliminate security risks, should be considered.
Republicans could remind people that it was anti-communist Democratic President Harry Truman who started the first loyalty program. He issued executive order 9835 establishing the program in 1947.
The executive order said that “each employee of the Government of the United States is endowed with a measure of trusteeship over the democratic processes which are at the heart and sinew of the United States,” and declared that “the presence within the Government service of any disloyal or subversive person constitutes a threat to our democratic processes…”
It is time for a background check on the President of the United States. Does he pass the loyalty test?
Was this printed in the Evening Independent?
Thanks for the ping.
Another coincidence involving Tim Geithner and his dad:
During the early 1980s, Geithner’s father oversaw the Ford Foundation’s microfinance programs in Indonesia being developed by Ann Dunham Soetoro, President Barack Obama’s mother, and they met at least once.[17]

More connections (oldie, but goodie)....

....Obama’s longtime friend, Eric Whitaker, runs the Urban Health Initiative (UHI), which was founded as a means of connecting low-income patients with health clinics in their own communities.
The UHI was one of only 26 programs — out of 3,000 applications — to receive a slice of the $1 billion in taxpayer money from the executive’s “We Can’t Wait” initiative, which is aimed at spurring job growth via executive action, reported Keith Koffler at White House Dossier.
HHS has denied any White House involvement in the decision, but the president will have a tough time feigning surprise given his deep ties to the UHI:
Eric Whitaker runs the UHI, has known the president since his days at Harvard Law and occasionally vacations with the Obamas.
Michelle Obama launched the UHI while working as an executive at the University of Chicago Medical Center, which runs the program.
Valerie Jarrett, the president’s senior adviser, was the chairman of the University of Chicago Medical Center board of trustees until she resigned her post to join the White House.
David Axelrod, now-communications director for the Obama campaign, provided public relations services to the UHI after Michelle Obama recommended that he be hired in 2006.
Despite those deep ties, HHS stands by its process, describing the decision making as free from White House influence.
“Applications that met the basic eligibility requirements underwent a competitive, objective review,” an HHS spokesperson told White House Dossier.
Dossier noted that this is only the latest incident where “red flags” have been raised in the administration’s tangled relationship with the UHI.
A September report by The Daily Caller showed that Obama donor George Kaiser gave the UHI $10,000 in 2009 — the same year that Kaiser received the $535 million Department of Energy loan guarantee for Solyndra.
America has more corruption than most third-world countries. Banana republic.
This is a key phrase.
So thoroughly and consciously did the Communists "take over" the media, the schools, some unions, etc. that people coming up after the 50s often have absolutely no idea that they have been raised on a steady diet of Communist precepts. Their "ideas" are Communist ideas. These people in the "nomenklatura*" of our institutions are for the most part, Lenin's "useful idiots." However, some are true believers. Perhaps Obama, is possibly in the "Useful Idiot" category ... Classic example Debbie Wasserman Schultz. True believers? Valerie Jarrett, Axelrod, Hillary?
For example, prior to Roosevelt, many college instructors and professors were very conservative! What the Communists did, and brilliantly, was go "mainstream." To do this, they united themselves, the Socialists, and the Progressives in the Democrat Party.
*"nomenklatura" is the Soviet term for those top spots in an organization chart that form the actual structure of the entity. Who reports to whom? Who hires whom? Take those positions, and the whole organization works for the Communists, even though the actual workers may not realize it.
Yeah, you said it a lot more economically than I -PING!
99% of all problems in the last six years have been due to the GOP failing to stand up for America.
I’m not sure where it originated, a freeper sent the image to me. I’ll see what I can find out.
St Petersburg Independent, November 6, 1979.

Interesting... the story’s on 19 - A by the way... that’s the first section of the the St. Petersburg Times afternoon paper. The Times bought the Independent years ago - then let it go out of business... absorbed it.
Check out # 46.
Thanks, Kenny Bunk.
It is how they work it...
Thank the public schools, and our universities for brainwashing our kids for 30-40 years. And don’t forget the feckless parents, who never bothered to audit their kids studies.
One of the reasons the Left thinks so little of the Right's mental abilities is the indisputable fact that it wasn't very hard for them to take over they key sectors of our national life.
Do not waste hatred on Obama, either. A far more worthy target is the GOP. We vote for Republicans on an entirely unfounded premise that they will fulfill their constitutional duties and represent our best interests. They do not.
There is no Conservative Party. Indeed we even fear starting one because we know that it will "split the Right, and we will be left with an even more dominant Democrat Party.
Perhaps we would be no worse off, but it is a hell of a risk. Back to square one. Take over local, county, and state government. If the Republic is to survive, the constitution probably has to be restored from the bottom up, or we will have top-down federal government forever.
He has abjectly apologized and "walked back" his remarks. He has said he was sorry ! Rudy, you old SOB, go away.
” Do not waste hatred on Obama, either. A far more worthy target is the GOP.”
I’m sure you have seen enough of my posts to know that I get this : )
” Take over local, county, and state government. If the Republic is to survive, the constitution probably has to be restored from the bottom up, or we will have top-down federal government forever.”
You are one smart FReeper, because that is exactly where we are at.
” He has abjectly apologized and “walked back” his remarks. He has said he was sorry ! Rudy, you old SOB, go away. “
But....but he was THERE on 911. He has 911 on his office door. He changed his home address to 911. He drives a Porsche 911. ......
Every time I consider the recent history of the US, that simple realization scares.
