Obammie commie ping...
Coming soon to a theatre near you “The Manchurian Candidate, the Story of Barak Obama”
Starting with his mother. She, like Stanley Ann, was a communist fellow traveler. She wrote for a NYC commie rag as David was growing up.
OUTSTANDING post! Thanks to Trevor Loudon for connecting these dots.
PING
Here’s another one of Obama’s commies.
In 1995, Alice Palmer represented the state’s 13th District, and decided to run for the United States Congress. She hand-picked Obama to run to replace her.
Palmer introduced her chosen successor, Barack Obama, to a few of the district’s influential liberals at the home of two well-known figures on the local left: William Ayers and Bernardine Dohrn, former members of the terrorist Weather Underground.
“I remember being one of a small group of people who came to Bill Ayers’ house to learn that Alice Palmer was stepping down from the Senate and running for Congress,” says Quentin Young, a prominent Chicago physician and advocate for single-payer health care. “(Palmer) identified (Obama) as her successor.”
Ten years earlier, Palmer was an executive board member of the U.S. Peace Council, which the FBI identified as a communist front group, an affiliate of the World Peace Council, a Soviet front group.
Palmer participated in the World Peace Council’s 1983 Prague Assembly, part of the Soviet launch of the nuclear-freeze movement. The only thing it would have frozen was the Soviet Union’s military superiority.
In June 1986, while editor of the Black Press Review, she wrote an article for the Communist Party USA’s newspaper, the People’s Daily World, now the People’s Weekly World. It detailed her experience attending the 27th Congress of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union and how impressed she was by the Soviet system.
Palmer gushed at the “Soviet plan to provide people with higher wages and better education” and spoke of the efficiency of the Soviets’ most recent five-year plan, attributing its success to “central planning.” She praised their “comprehensive affirmative action program, which they have stuck to religiously — if I can use the word — since 1917.”
Palmer also marveled that all Russian citizens were guaranteed a job matching their training and skills, free education, affordable housing and free medical care. Because Soviet school curricula were established at the national level, she said, “there is no second-class ‘track’ system in the minority-nationality schools as there is in the inferior inner city schools in my hometown, Chicago, and elsewhere in the United States.”
Well, Alice lost the congressional race to Jesse Jackson, Jr., and decided that she wanted to hang onto that hard-won state senate seat. Most of the community leaders tried to persuade Obama to withdraw and wait his turn. He was a newcomer after all.
Obama said no.
Thank you Interesting Times for this post.
And, thank you GOP for sleeping at the wheel.
Chicago sounds like a little Moscow. Federal intel branches have certainly got O’s name all over their files.
Does anyone doubt that if O wins, we are in deep stuff.
They will find landmines buried in our government structure for decades, if we survive.
Well Well, Commiebama should explain why he’s not a Socialist.
Pray for W McCain and our Troops
A plague on both their political houses.
Trevor has updated this post at New Zeal to correct two minor errors, which he ascribes to a lack of sleep:
IVI’s 60th anniversary was in 2004, not 2006.
The KGB effort to undermine Goldwater took place in 1960, not 1963/64.
The SDS “Students for a Democratic Society” (marxist/communist) organization with Bill Ayers (prior to Weathermen) had their main office in Chicago, Ill. So this ties together nicely with what we already know.
"The Communist Party USA views the 2008 elections as a tremendous opportunity to defeat the policies of the right-wing Republicans and to move our country in a new progressive direction.
The record turnout in the Democratic Presidential primary races shows that millions of voters, including millions of new voters, are using this election to bring about real change. We wholeheartedly agree with them."
It's likely that Davis and Canter knew each other in Chicago, and Davis' recommendation of Obama would have opened doors for Obama in Chicago, with the help of Canter.
excerpt:
The hunt for Obama’s senior “thesis” began with a throwaway line in a newspaper article last October. The New York Times story, on Obama’s early New York years, mentioned in passing that the presidential contender had majored in political science at Columbia and had spent his time “writing his thesis on Soviet nuclear disarmament.”
Journalists began hounding Columbia University for copies of the musty document. Conservative bloggers began wondering if the young Obama had written a no-nukes screed that he might come to regret. And David Bossie, the former congressional investigator and “right-wing hit man,” as one newspaper described him, took out classified newspaper ads in Columbia University’s newspaper and the Chicago Tribune in March searching for the term paper.
Bossie came up dry, but said the effort was well worth it:
“A thesis entitled Soviet Nuclear Disarmament, written at the height of The Cold War in 1983, might shed some light upon what Barack Obama thought about our most pressing foreign policy issue for 40-plus years (U.S.-Soviet Relations),” he wrote in an e-mail to NBC News.

Here is the passage from the New York Times that the above article refers to:
"He barely mentions Columbia, training ground for the elite, where he transferred in his junior year, majoring in political science and international relations and writing his thesis on Soviet nuclear disarmament. He dismisses in one sentence his first community organizing job — work he went on to do in Chicago — though a former supervisor remembers him as 'a star performer.'"
