JERUSALEM Evidence has emerged that Sen. Barack Obama belonged to a socialist political party that sought to elect members to public office with the aim of moving the Democratic Party far leftward to ultimately form a new political party with a socialist agenda.
Several blogs, including Powerline, previously documented that while running for the Illinois state Senate in 1996 as a Democrat, Obama actively sought and received the endorsement of the socialist-oriented New Party, with some blogs claiming Obama was a member of the controversial party.
The New Party, formed by members of the Democratic Socialists for America and leaders of an offshoot of the Community Party USA, was an electoral alliance that worked alongside the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now, or ACORN. The New Party's aim was to help elect politicians to office who espouse its policies.
Among New Party members was linguist and radical activist Noam Chomsky.
Obama's campaign has responded to the allegations, denying the presidential candidate was ever a member of the New Party.

How can we get all this into the MSM? I think it’s up to Hannity.
Yes, I still feel kinda dirty after having gone through all 100+ of those DSA New Ground newsletters.
Here’s a gem, with follow up:
New Ground 45 reports that Obama spoke at a DSA young socialists forum on Economic Insecurity:
“Over three hundred people attended the first of two Town Meetings on Economic Insecurity on February 25 in Ida Noyes Hall at the University of Chicago. Entitled “Employment and Survival in Urban America”, the meeting was sponsored by the UofC DSA Youth Section, Chicago DSA and University Democrats. The panelists were Toni Preckwinkle, Alderman of Chicago’s 4th Ward; Barack Obama, candidate for the 13th Illinois Senate District; Professor William Julius Wilson, Center for the Study of Urban Inequality at the University of Chicago; Professor Michael Dawson, University of Chicago; and Professor Joseph Schwartz, Temple University and a member of DSA’s National Political Committee.”

Then, a couple of years later while giving Obama another endorsement, the DSA writer recalled Obama’s speech:
“When Obama participated in a 1996 UofC YDS Townhall Meeting on Economic Insecurity, much of what he had to say was well within the mainstream of European social democracy [socialism].”

It became a mute point when He was adopted by his step-father an Indonesian. Barack became an Indonesian citizen!
Thanks.
Why is it that you appear to be doing more for the Republican ticket than many Republican officials? Why hasn’t this fact been publicized???
I don’t understand this campaign, DrE.
It’s the same as George Bush’s refusal to defend himself over the WMD/Al Qaeda issues over the years. I kept thinking that any moment Karl Rove would pull the rug out and everyone would see how brilliant they are.
I’m waiting, I suppose, for something brilliant to tie this all together in some stunning “a ha!” and we’ll take those socialists to the cleaners.
Time’s running thin. The brilliance is gonna happen by next Tuesday at the latest, or it isn’t going to happen.
What do you think?
and
If you pull one thread long enough things eventually unravel.
Oh yeah! I’m pulling as fast as I can, too!
