"The right-wing stranglehold on Congress has been broken," declared Joelle Fishman, chair of the Communist Party USA’s (CPUSA) political action commission, to a meeting of its 81-person National Committee this past weekend.

Fishman noted, "This is a victory being celebrated around the world."

Fishman delivered her report to the committee as it discussed the results of the election and prepared to move the struggle for democracy, peace, and economic justice forward in the new Congress, and to build the size and influence of the Communist Party.

Overwhelmingly, the committee claimed victory for the US working class, the world, and for democracy as a result of the landslide that swept the Republican Party from power in Congress.

"Our Party gave its heart and soul to the struggle," declared CPUSA’s Executive Vice-chair Jarvis Tyner.

"government controlled capitalism at home is bad. Bill Clinton makes the exact same argument." No, he does not. Bill Clinton wanted tighter restrictions on business and he placed them on American businesses. He also increased corporate taxation on them, which is about as restrictive as you can get. To quote John Marshall: "The power to tax is the power to destroy." If Clinton loved anything it was govt control of private enterprise, not the opposite.

That would be "truly" not "truely." Sorry...former English teacher. Can't help myself.

Could you add some substance to your post? I'm glad you got a laugh, but um...what are you even talking about?
