the 1960s student left “revolutionaries” failed to carry out their plans at that time to take over the US government - but they have waited 40 years, and found the perfect vehicle in Obama. And, even though he’s a cipher in every other way, it’s clear that he agrees with every bit of their program.

No, the 1960s radicals have burrowed their way into every nook and cranny of American life -- the schools, the media, the bureaucracy, the courts -- and Obama is their long-planned Creation. It's not a coincidence he's such a cipher. He's the embodiment of their radical program to turn America into a totalitarian Marxist state. I despair for my children, who believe he's the Savior. They've been carefully taught to hate America.

the hate America thing is, indeed, deeply entrenched.

in A Balance sheet of the Finnish Events (April 1940), Leon Trotsky wrote, “The Marxist line of conduct in war is not based on abstract moral and sentimental considerations but on the social appraisal of a regime in its reciprocal relations with other regimes. We supported Abyssinia not because the Negus (Haile Selassie) was politically or ‘morally’ superior to Mussolini but because the defence of a backward country against colonial oppression deals a blow to imperialism, which is the main enemy of the world working class."

I could never understand why so many were vested in our defeat in Iraq. I guess I naively thought it was to blame the loss on GWB. I'm now beginning to believe that there is a faction, and I include Obama and William Ayers, who believe that if we lose in Iraq, it is a blow to our imperialism, which is the main enemy of the "working class". They are not against war, per se. They are for our defeat.

“I despair for my children, who believe he’s the Savior. They’ve been carefully taught to hate America.”

Yes, woe to our children, who have been fed a diet of Marxist indoctrination. But, it’s not just our children who have drunk the koolaid. Our society has been brainwashed big time for the past 40 years and large numbers of “educated” people cannot think for themselves about what leads to progress and what to servitude. Critical thinking is dead, the history of Marxism and Communism’s brutality and utter failure are not taught, and puppetlike phrases take the place of real discussion. The best country in the history of the world has been eatern away from within and not by accident.

I agree it would be a temptation to despair for the children if Obama is elected. It is very hard to face the fact that I should have pulled my only surviving child out of the public schools and either homeschooled him or put him in a small truly Christian school. I didn’t realize where the education system was headed way back then. As a result, he is entrenched in the liberal camp. - My BIL is a teacher who resisted joining the teachers’ union for many years, but last year, a year before his planned retirement, announced that he HAD to join it. ?? One doesn’t ask him “why” about ANYTHING, so I’ve begun, frankly, not caring to ask him anything as I’ve had my head taken off many times with accusations of “getting into HIS business” (which is not true as he was the one who bragged about his “strength” in not succumbing to the union).
