Excerpt:
Katz started a public relations firm and led the charge for the election of Chicago Mayor Harold Washington, a major triumph of the socialist Left. That is where she met Michelle Robinson and her fiancee, Barack Obama.
Katz and Chicago limousine liberal Bettylu Saltzman organized the 2002 antiwar demonstration featuring a speech from State Senator Barack Hussein Obama, which he used to burnish his antiwar credentials en route to capturing the 2008 Democratic presidential nomination.
Katz continued to encourage socialists to radicalize the Democratic Party. In a 2004 article entitled "From Protest to Politics," she and co-author Carl Davidson encouraged revolutionaries to vote for John Kerry. Although they insisted the United States "will still be an imperialist power" under Kerry, at least under a Democrat the United States would be "not quite as dangerous to peace abroad."
Continuing her efforts to radicalize the mainstream, Katz bundled at least $50,000 for Obama’s 2008 presidential campaign, as did Code Pink activist (and Jerry Brown advisor) Jodie Evans.
After Obama’s election, she reportedly offered a barely concealed bribe to Governor Rod Blagojevich in exchange for naming Valerie Jarrett to Obama’s vacant senate seat. Blago wrote in his book that, after Katz failed to schedule lunch with his wife Patti, Katz contacted him and "indicated that if I appointed Valerie Jarrett to the U.S. Senate, the Obama people would help me raise money from their network of contributors across the country."
Despite her pose as a simple Democrat, her goals and ideology have remained unchanged. On the 40th anniversary of the Days of Rage, an interviewer from In These Times asked "In this age of terrorism" if she regretted her role in the riots. She replied, "I regret nothing." However, she ventured, "I would probably reject violence as a useful form of revolution."
Probably???
She told ITT, "What is really interesting to me" is that Ayers and Dohrn had figured "out a way to not only join the system but make changes" to it. One of the ways they effected "change" was by supporting Barack Obama.
In the same interview, Katz exposed to her socialist audience the Left’s collusion with Barack Obama. She said she and her fellow fringers had to elect Obama and continually push him in the direction of Fabian socialism -- but without going so far as to tip off ignorant patriotic Americans:
We have to get him into office so then we can be the Left opposition. I think it is a delicate balance between those of us who are progressive, how much you push, how much you don’t want to put him in very difficult positions that would embarrass him or give John McCain some advantage.
In her new article "What We Lost After We Won in 2008," Katz purrs the reason Obama’s party lost a blowout midterm election is because he failed to motivate the far-Left. To remedy this, she proposes:
We must build the national grassroots vehicle that Obama for America and Organizing for America could have been. This organization must be broad enough in scope to develop and promote a progressive agenda, and it should allow all types of involvement--whether online or in person, occasional or constant.
The article’s centerpiece is this: "Crucially, the organization’s members would not only articulate a progressive agenda and interact with congressional leaders on the ground but also be broad and creative enough in their thinking to involve the ordinary, everyday people who found both meaning and community in 2008." (Emphases added.)

Dear Lord, how crucial it is for this nation that these dangerous anti-American tyrants and monsters, along with the monster puppet at the top, be banished as well forever from ANY and ALL govt control or influence.
