Communists, socialists, Marxists, Oh my!
WorldNetDaily ^ | February 24, 2011 | Aaron Klein

One of the main groups organizing the Wisconsin union protests is a spinoff from an activist academy modeled after Marxist community organizer Saul Alinsky and described as teaching tactics of direct action, confrontation and intimidation.

President Obama once funded that academy - the radical Midwest Academy. He has been closely tied to the group's founder, socialist activist Heather Booth.

Obama also is closely tied to scores of other radicals behind the Wisconsin opposition protesting Gov. Scott Walker's proposal for most state workers to pay 12 percent of their health care premiums and 5.8 percent of their salary toward their own pensions.

Walker's proposal reportedly would save $300 million in the next two years for a state that faces a financial crisis amid a $3.6 billion deficit..

A slew of radical groups and unions have been organizing the protests against Walker's proposal as well as counter protests to a recent tea party rally in support of the governor's plan.

Obama's own political machine has aided in organizing protests in Wisconsin

Counter protests were led in part by radical groups like Veterans for Peace, Freedom Road Socialist Organization, and the Workers World Party.

everything that is happening is happening too fast for waiting on elections to fix

“and we have limp wrecking Congressmen obliging him in his wrecking of the country”

I don’t know about that, just yet. They’ve been in office for less than two months.

Give them a little time to find their balance. I know for a fact that having so many TEA Party Congresscritters is having an effect.

This is a multi-election revolution. We will take the Senate next time.

Please...remember that.

I don’t know how old you are, but I remember when Reagan defeated Carter...and I had lived as an adult during the Carter years.

The “fix” didn’t happen overnight, but it was like an earthquake of biblical proportions when Reagan assumed office.

The House is doing what they can to stop Obama’s agenda, but they are overwhelmed with problems right now.

I’m not making excuses...but I know one thing that is certain...I wouldn’t want to be an incumbent politician on either side of the aisle for anything in the world right now.

“...he was allowed to run and get elected potus anyway”

You can lay that directly at the LSM’s feet.

They were not only in the tank for him, they showered, bathed and fed him...and sucked up to him in more ways than is polite to acknowledge.

They put halos around his head, they had no comment about the parthenon that was erected in Denver...more than that, they threw Hillary! under the bus, and allowed Obama to use the race card against Billybob.

The worst thing they did, though, is to not only allow him to go unvetted, as they usually do during a Presidential election, but to be his press secretaries.

From socialism it’s just one small step to Communism, teacher.

Evil is evil.

A rose by any other name is still a rose.

“From socialism it’s just one small step to Communism, teacher.”

Thanks for the promotion. ;o) However, my post to you still stands.

This admin would love nothing better, imo, and it is, in fact, their ultimate goal.

“Evil is evil.

A rose by any other name is still a rose.”

I couldn’t agree with you more.

When the destruction is sufficient for the (insert political description here) people to nationalize and completely control the oil industries i imagine their converstion would go something like this:

“Oh no, we can’t do this! We are socialist, not communists!”

It just does not matter. Evil has no restraints.

I did state that the Obama Administration was Marxist.

Communism.

What is the Obama Administration’s goal?

We will know when they are close to achieving this goal when they will no longer have to PRETEND to be concerned about the environment, the economy, education, the children , the poor..... These are merely vehicles they will use to reach their goal.

Which is what? What do you think is their goal?

Have you ever read anything by Alexandr Solzhenitsyn?

If you want to know about communism, I suggest you read, at the very least, this...

http://nobelprize.org/nobel_prizes/literature/laureates/1970/solzhenitsyn-autobio.html

That is their goal.

If I have to point out this fine author to you, then you are young, and I guess I am a teacher. ;o)

My point is, what does it matter?

They are facists, they are socialists, they are communists.

They are even capitalists if it temporarily serves their needs.

They will be whatever they need to be at any given time.

They are Democrats.

It matters.

You are assuming that the American people are idiots...stupid...morons.

I would think that the “shellacking” Obama took in November would give you some hope for this country.

The Republicans will take the Senate in ‘12. What they will do with it remains to be seen.

It all comes down to the Republican presidential nominee.

That’s what is scary...

BTW, this is a multi-election revolution.

So...don’t get your knickers in a twist, and give up just yet.

Give up?

General Washington was losing the war and retreating from the British for years.

Give up?

Sir, I’m an American.

“Sir, I’m an American.”

Excellent quote!

We are ALL Americans!

And, I’m a “ma’m” American. ;o)
