Well, between indoctrinating public schools, a complacent media, corrupt elected leaders and creation of the nanny state, I’m not sure why anyone’s surprised.

However, I think the polls are BS and are weighted in 0bama’s favor to keep the narrative alive. I would like to think that come election day it will be a landslide in McCain’s favor. But even there I wouldn’t be surprised if the electoral college ignores popular vote and gives it to 0bama anyway.

“The answer is simple: The history and truth about communism is not taught by our educators.”

This is incorrect.

The correct statement would be:

"The answer is simple: Communism is being taught by our educators as a way to bring about a Utopian society."

The history and truth about communism is not taught by our educators.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

BINGO! Give this writer a prize!

Our government K-12 schools ( and many private schools) are full to the brim with Marxists, Useful Idiots, and the clueless.

Marxism is our nation’s **most** serious threat. Schools are their most important weapon.

Does this mean that the McCain camp, talk radio and conservatives generally shouldn't bother exposing these things? Not at all. The truth is the truth, and needs to be told.

Rush Limbaugh in particular infuriates me!!! The one guy with the most power to educate his listeners has been stone cold **silent** about Marxism for YEARS!!!!

In the past few weeks he may have uttered the word Marxist or Stalinist once or twice, but he should have been hammering this YEARS ago.

Marxism is our nation's **MOST** serious threat. Rush Limbuagh hasn't been at the leading letting his listeners know it.

Last month I painted 4 rooms of my house. I listened to every program of Rush for solid MONTH. Some programs more than once. Not one time did I hear Rush Limbaugh use the word Marxism or communism. NOT one time did I hear him talk about Obama or Ayers COMMUNIST philosophy or connections.

Look at how uncomfortable Hollywood was when Elia Kazan won his lifetime achievement award?

Elia Kazan’s reputation among the Glitterati took a hit when, in 1952, he testified before the House UnAmerican Affairs Committee about his flirtation with the Communist Party in the 1930s.

A good article by Paul Kengor!

I might argue that Mr. Kengor is perhaps a bit too easy on the anti-anti communists, as they will opt for Obama's Marxist "changes" over capitalism (which they have been taught to fear and hate) and will readily give up freedoms and property without thinking to question the motives of Obama and his henchpersons.

Obama’s communist connections are not headlines in the mainline press since it too is controlled by the same leftist element.

Thanks for posting the article.

While it explains why conservatives are frustrated, it would have been good if he had offered a couple of ideas of how to attempt to get the message of Obama’s associations to those who do not understand Communism

Here is a comment left on the American Thinker website that deserves more attention-—

It makes sense to me to focus on Obama’s only “executive experience” while he was Chairman of the Board——

WE NEED TO CHANGE THE BILL AYERS ARGUMENT NOW.....The current approach to the Bill Ayers “connection” or “association” is a WEAK ARGUMENT at best on a country that is absolutely drunk on Obama’s Kool-Aid. In other words, the McCain Campaign and the GOP is taking the wrong approach to this. A MUCH MORE EFFECTIVE APPROACH EXISTS AND MUST BE EXECUTED BY BOTH THE GOP AND MCCAIN CAMPAIGNS. THERE IS A SMOKING GUN THAT IS SITTING RIGHT UNDER ALL OF OUR NOSES.

The smoking gun that will resonate with both undecided pure independents, conservative democrats and moderate republicans (where this race will be won or lost) is with the Bill Ayers issue, specifically the Chicago Anneberg Challenge. The current approach is to call Obama on his lie that Ayers was just a “guy that lives in his neighborhood”....we all know the rest of the story. Although this resonates with we conservatives, it has been and will continue to be rebuked by Obama and he can just point to it being a right wing conspiracy theory or smear campaign...this argument is going on deaf ears of the masses that are inebriated on Obama KooAid.

HOWEVER THERE IS NO, ABSOLUTELY NO REBUKING AN ARGUMENT BASED ON FACTS THAT WILL CALL INTO QUESTION “WHAT OBAMA WILL DO” WITH THE MASSIVE FEDERAL EDUCATION BUDGET. Here’s how the McCain Campaign and GOP ads should go......Throw out all arguments relating to the amount of time and meetings Ayers and Obama spent together.

The ad should then talk about “Walter Annenberg’s foundation offering several hundred million dollars to American public schools in the mid-’90s, and William Ayers appling for $50 million for Chicago. The purpose of his application was to secure funds to “raise political consciousness” in Chicago’s public schools. After he won the grant, Ayers’s group (NOT AYERS HIMSELF....Obama keeps pointing to this fact and it should be irrelevant in the context of this argument anyway) chose Barack Obama to distribute the money, as the Chairman of the Board.

It should highlight that this was actual executive experience that Obama has chosen to avoid highlighting. WHY WOULD OBAMA PURPOSELY HIDE ACTUAL EXECUTIVE EXPERIENCE.....UNLESS HE HAD SOMETHING TO HIDE. HERE’S WHY AND WHAT HE HAD TO HIDE: Between 1995 and 1999, Obama distributed the $50 million and raised another $60 million from other civic groups to augment it. In doing so, he was following Ayers’s admonition (regardless of Ayers continued involvement) to grant the funds to “external” organizations, like American Community Organizations for Reform Now (ACORN) to pair with schools and conduct programs to radicalize the students and politicize them.

Regardless of the fact that Ayers played a lesser role after the founding in 1995, Barack Obama carried out Ayers vision throughout the entire tenure of his involvement (i.e. pumping money into left wing groups to “radicalize students.”) THIS IS WHAT OBAMA WAS HIDING......IS THIS THE TYPE OF EXPENDITURES AMERICA WANTS TO SEE IN THE FEDERAL EDUCATION APPROPRIATIONS IN AN OBAMA ADMINISTRATION?

We need to stop talking about his not being able to lead and start talking about his vision for change’s being the WRONG KIND OF CHANGE. THE INEBRIATED OBAMA DISCIPLES NEED TO BE CAREFUL WHAT THEY ARE ASKING FOR....THEY JUST MIGHT GET IT.....AND THEY NEED TO QUESTION THIS. If they start to question why Obama purposely hid actual executive experience, they will start to question his BS arguments about deregulation causing the current financial crisis, etc. etc. etc.

The term "creeping socialism" goes back before Reagan.

Dems' connection to Communists isn't news, because their party has absorbed all the old Communists.
