I beleive they still use the tune but with altered words to reflect the change from the Soviets to Russia. I have listened to the anthem sung by the old Soviet choir. The music is truly inspiring. Change the words and it would be great perfect.

First the Che flag in Houston, now the Soviet anthem in Oregon. This is worse than Rev. Wrong, IMO!

Don’t forget his Soviet styled “OBEY” poster campaign he ran contracting Shepherd Fairey to make campaign materials (for illegal nighttime posting in public places).

In days dark and stormy
When great Lenin led us
Our eyes saw the bright sun of freedom above
And Stalin our leader
With trust in the People
Inspired us to build up the land that we love

Rough sledding ahead. Get ready.

“The only thing that still amazes me about the left are the number of them that don’t admit to being Marxists.”

What amazes me is they are a bunch of lamebrains who just don’t understand the brutality of the Russian Revolution.

It was the original revolutionaries who were eliminated by the Marxists. The fools who play at being commies are the ones who make me sick.

Obama has flawlessly sung the Islamic call to prayer and called it one of the most beautiful sounds he’s every heard.

Someone should ask him if it is even more beautiful than the Soviet National Anthem.

Look at this recent crowd shot of Baraq Husayn ibn Mahomet in Oregon, and look at what is NOT there:


NOT A SINGLE AMERICAN FLAG

The fact that Barry let a band called the Decembrists lead for him shows he doesn’t care about being called a Commie or is really, really politically inept.

Good catch. A sea of Marxists with their “Change” posters. The change they’re looking for is turning Stars and Stripes into hammers and sickles.

Well, in all fairness it is a really cool anthem.

NY Times (select) opinion: Obama: Man of the World (By NICHOLAS D. KRISTOF - March 6th, 2007)

“I was a little Jakarta street kid,” he said in a wide-ranging interview in his office (excerpts are on my blog, www.nytimes.com/ontheground). He once got in trouble for making faces during Koran study classes in his elementary school, but a president is less likely to stereotype Muslims as fanatics — and more likely to be aware of their nationalism — if he once studied the Koran with them.

Mr. Obama recalled the opening lines of the Arabic call to prayer, reciting them with a first-rate accent. In a remark that seemed delightfully uncalculated (it’ll give Alabama voters heart attacks), Mr. Obama described the call to prayer as “one of the prettiest sounds on Earth at sunset.”

No, they do not admit it; and do not have to. The MSM will never accuse him, for sure. Other than the occasional 'Marxist label' - not usually mentioned either at Fox News - Obama walks, unscathed.

It is both amazing and frightening; and sickening as well, to behold; how easily this wolf hides who he really is.

"Why Grandmother, what big ears you have! (oops! Forgot,Obama says we cannot mention his ears!) So, okay. . . 'what big ears 'eyes' you have!. All the better to see you my dear. . .(mouth starting to glisten in anticipation of 'the kill')

Little Red Riding Hood figured it out before too late. I pray we do, as well.
