U.S. Rep. Paul Broun, R-Crazy (MSM does not like anyone calling messiah a marxist)
AJC ^ | 11/11/08 | Jay "kneepads" Bookman

Posted on 11/11/2008 12:03:50 PM PST by pissant

A Georgia congressman, Paul Broun of Athens, has accused Barack Obama of being a Marxist with secret plans to take over the country, abolish all rights and rule as dictator just as Hitler did.

That’s a U.S. congressman, yes. From Georgia.

Broun might as well have claimed that he had been abducted by aliens and appointed queen of their planet Bogusia. It’s a claim with just as much basis in fact as what he actually said, and it probably wouldn’t have done more damage to what remained of Broun’s credibility.

I don’t doubt for a moment that Broun feels threatened by the prospect of Obama in the White House. But he can’t admit the real reasons for that feeling, probably even to himself, so he resorts to fantasy as a way to express it.

Sane people all over the country are snickering at Broun, as they should be. He is the point at which the lunatic fringe and Republican officeholders intersect.

Here’s his direct quote:

“It may sound a bit crazy and off base, but the thing is, he’s the one who proposed this national security force. I’m just trying to bring attention to the fact that we may — may not, I hope not — but we may have a problem with that type of philosophy of radical socialism or Marxism.

Just sent Broun conf to sub to his e-letter. He’s one of the brave ones—there are more out there!

Is there anyone who seriously does not understand Obama to be a marxist?

At least half the people who voted for him.

Hey Jay, your first clue and red flag is this country elected during a war with our enemies, a guy named Barack Hussein Obama.

Now, I wonder how that happened. And I will just bet it wasn’t the black vote or any other vote.

He must make his point with more facts and arguments added together so that the MSM can’t make a fool of him

Nothing smells quite like the stench that wafts from the Atlanta Journal Constipation.

God Bless the great state of Georgia and her people.

http://www.americanthinker.com/2008/07/obamas_civilian_national_secur.html

“We cannot continue to rely on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives that we’ve set. We’ve got to have a civilian national security force that’s just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded.” (emphasis added)

The above is what Obama actually said. It is very clear that he wants a civilian army that is “just as powerful” as the military. It’s clear to me that this civilian army would be under the direction of BHO. In other words, it would be like the KGB, the SS, or the Gestapo. A liberal friend said he didn’t read it that way (because he refuses to see the truth).

"Sane people all over the country are snickering at Broun, as they should be. He is the point at which the lunatic fringe and Republican officeholders intersect."

Sane people across the country, in the mainstream of the party, are shaking their heads in agreement. Broun called a spade a spade (no pun intended), and sees Obama for what he really is, a hardened Marxist. Bravo to Broun. He got it absolutley right. If it wasn't for the lying left media, most Americans would know it, and Obama would never have been elected.

I also wonder if he reported on Ma(r)xine Waters’ assertion that the oil industry be “socialized”.

Translation, if you say anything bad about our messiah you're a g-damn racist, even if you're not so much as thinking in racist terms.

I wonder how many swipes that race card is good for if you keep silencing opinions with baseless accusations. Saying Obama is a marxist is racist, but talking about a world "run by white man's greed" isn't racist at all...

My own father threw a fit when I called obama a marxist. My father is usually more conservative than I am, yet he recoiled at the term. He'd rather wait until there are real live gulags in america, and he fears that others will laugh at conservatives and call us names if we use the term "lightly." I don't take my first and second amendment rights "lightly," and I think that someone who wants to redistribute everyone's wealth while intruding on my rights because of "fairness" fits the description perfectly.

Oh, like Louis Farrakhan.

Be ready for this tactic, folks. One of the concepts used by communists is to convince everyone that their enemies are mentally unstable. They also institutionalize the concept that only state trained psychologists can determine who fits into the category as mentally unstable, which of course allows them to pick and choose their enemies and label them as psychotic.

This article shows an excellent example of this tactic in use by the communists.

0bama is a Marxist
Lib response “that’s absurd”
I have a long list of supporting information.
Lib response “I won’t look at it”
Well then, if he’s not a Marxist, how would he be acting differently if he was?
Lib response “don’t be absurd”

0bama supports denying abortion survivors medical care, ie, infanticide
Lib: “that’s absurd”
OK, well, I have evidence... but I suppose you don’t want to look at it, right?
Lib: “that’s right.”

I always call ‘em like I see ‘em. Osama bin Biden is a Marxist messiah so I’ll continue to call him a Marxist messiah. The MSM can just “kiss it.”

Yeah, about half would deny that he’s a Marxist,

but when challenged with

“how would he act differently if he was”

they can’t answer.

Then there’s the other half. The Soviet flag waving, Che T-Shirt & flag wearing half.
