Frank Marshall Davis: Obama’s ‘Communist mentor’? (3 Pinocchios to Giuliani)
Washington Post ^ | March 23, 2015 | Michelle Ye Hee Lee

Posted on 03/23/2015 3:15:02 PM PDT by Seizethecarp

Giuliani: Well, his — his grandfather introduced him to Frank Marshall Davis, who was a Communist.

Readers of The Fact Checker wanted to know if Giuliani’s comments were accurate.

So we reached out to Cliff Kincaid, president of America’s Survival, a group that seeks to expose Communist and Marxist influences.

The Pinocchio Test

We carefully considered the facts underlying this assertion, and the evidence is slim. We may never definitively know one way or another, but it is time to put it to rest.

Three Pinocchios

The Feds have no trouble destroying evidence, especially when it comes to FOIAA.

I filed one once regarding the particulars of a government contract, they sent me a CD that was intentionally damaged and unreadable (I’m talking somebody took a key to it and scratched off 50% of the laminate).

It was accompanied by a letter from some apparatchik that said if I had any more questions I should give him a call.

I took the hint that calling him would not be a good idea.

My friends and fellow FReeper-Americans, I am in a state of OOS (The dreaded disease, Obama Overload Syndrome). The symptoms are: whenever I hear something we already all knew in 2007, my ears start to ring, mine eyes glaze over, and I could easily be persuaded to self-medicate with excessive social lubricants. Or strangle a fellow "conservative."

What difference does it make? (If I may coin a phrase.) Look. Look up in the sky. It's bird! It's a plane. It's Air Force 1, and in it are Barry and Reggie flying off for golf and shopping in some expensive locale usually thronged with wealthy white people. These two chaps were seated in AF1 by something called an "election." That is, the American people sort of chose them to ride over head, no doubt laughing on their way to the bank, while they snort in derision at our opinions.

Meanwhile, to make me feel better .... I guess ... you people continually tell me and I tell you, in fact, we tell each other, what a no-good rotten gay commie muslim slimeball punk the guy is. Whoopee!

So what do we have? I knows the problem. Where the solution be at? We (that is the loyal opposition, controls 31 state houses and legislatures, both Houses of Congress, (and the NRA and VFW). THE PEOPLE WE ELECT are the majority. So why can the Magic Marxist Mombasa Mulatto STILL do whatever he wants?

I frankly do not care about Franklin Marshall Davis' underwear as compared to Barry's and Gramps', OK? Where is the Program, The Plan? The Leader who is going to start saving the Republic? We have 19 more months of this foolish gay dork running roughshod over our backsides with his golf shoes. How do we stop that and start saving the Republic? Right now. We have the power.

We had the power, that is. Our elected representatives in the majority in both Houses decided to go with two leaders who would have been at home in Vichy France, Boehner and McConnell.

A sign, a portent, anything would be appreciated that might prove our majority takes this republic as seriously as we do.

Three Pinocchios on no evidence to the contrary -- and the evidence in favor is not only not slim, it is clear. Why three? Because "it is time to put it to rest", iow, we don't want anyone to bring it up any longer. The Partisan Media Shills of the Washington Compost should be burned at the stake.

Nice work !
Was aware of Valerie Jarret’s background and that she was Vernon’s daughter. But that commie upbringing connection never comes up and it should. This should be passed around Could you post the source ?

That’s always been my conclusion. Li’l abandoned Barry looking for a father figure, and Davis, not being anything remotely like a fatherly type, but a complete perv.

3 Pinocchios, yet the article backs him up? Is that the author of the article in the lower left hand corner of the photo that is posted at the top of the article?

The Communist. Frank Marshall Davis: The Untold Story of Barack Obama’s Mentor

http://www.frontpagemag.com/2012/jamie-glazov/the-communist-frank-marshall-davis-the-untold-story-of-barack-obama%E2%80%99s-mentor/

I must note that it was also through this group that Davis would work with Robert Taylor, who just happened to be the grandfather of Valerie Jarrett.

FP: That’s remarkable. Valerie Jarrett today is Obama’s right-hand woman in the White House.

Kengor: Yes, and it’s even more eerie than that. Frank Marshall Davis, Obama’s mentor, also worked with Vernon Jarrett in these circles. Vernon Jarrett was Valerie’s father-in-law. And it’s worse still. Davis, Obama’s mentor, also worked with Harry and David Canter, two other Chicago communists. The Canters mentored a young man named David Axelrod in Chicago in the 1970s. So, the troika that’s arguably running America today—Obama and Valerie Jarrett and David Axelrod—all have common bonds in Chicago’s communist circles from the 1940s. Their mentors knew each other.

I know this is incredible, but it’s true. You couldn’t make this up. No one would believe it. We’re being governed by ghosts from Chicago’s Communist Party glory years.

FP: Are there other people that Frank Marshall Davis worked with in Chicago who have relevance today?

Kengor: Oh, yes, I could go on and on. At the Chicago Star, the communist newspaper for which he wrote and was the founding editor-in-chief (1946-48), Davis regularly shared the op-ed page with Senator Claude “Red” Pepper, who at that exact time was writing the bill to nationalize healthcare in the United States—which Davis himself advocated in his columns. By the way, Pepper’s chief of staff, who wrote that bill, was Charles Kramer, who we now know was working for the KGB under the codename “mole.”

Another Davis comrade at the Star was William Patterson, who actually mentored Frank Marshall Davis and was probably more important than any other figure in bringing Davis into the Party.

FP: William Patterson was a hardcore communist.

Kengor: Yes, and among his legacies is the Kremlin’s “People’s Friendship University,” which he helped plan in the 1960s. People’s Friendship University became better known as the “Patrice Lumumba Friendship University,” a Kremlin grooming school for third-world revolutionaries. This university, the third largest in the USSR, schooled some of the world’s leading terrorists.

Distinguished alumni include Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and Palestinian leader Mahmoud Abbas, whose doctoral thesis became a book, The Other Side: The Secret Relations between Nazism and the Leadership of the Zionist Movement. According to Abbas, “only a few hundred thousand Jews” were killed in the Holocaust, and those mostly through Nazi-Zionist collusion. Other proud alumni include Carlos the Jackal, Mohamed Boudia, and Henry Ruiz, Nicaraguan Sandinista commander and economic planner-in-chief.”

EXCERPT:

Well, Axelrod is likewise a product of this Chicago world, including (to some degree) the communist influences. Axelrod was mentored by David Canter. David and his father, Harry, were part of Chicago’s communist orbit. Harry had been secretary of Boston’s Communist Party, and both father and son spent the 1930s in Moscow, where Harry he worked for the Soviet government as a translator of Lenin’s writings. Harry was among the small group that purchased the Chicago Star from Frank Marshall Davis in September 1948. Harry was familiar to Star readers. Among other instances, he appeared in the April 28, 1947 edition, wishing “May Day Greetings” to fellow comrades. Davis would have joined Harry at that May Day parade in Chicago. Davis editorialized in support of the 1947 May Day.

Both Harry and David Canter, like Davis, worked in the communist publishing world. In fact, David Canter worked with Frank Marshall Davis — and also with Vernon Jarrett, Valerie Jarrett’s father-in-law — as a writer for the communist-controlled Packinghouse Workers Union.

She fudges the Communism issue. If you're a "closet Communist", you're still a Communist, only a covert one.

But sounds like it's mostly just the word "mentor" she takes exception to. Not much argument that Obama's early environment had a serious opening on the far left.
