The activist son of a notorious pair of convicted Soviet spies is urging a mass "progressive" movement to pressure Barack Obama toward enacting policies that make America more socialist.
"All the stories about Obama's economic team and his economic instincts mean is that we on the left have to shout loud and clear to make the policies move in our direction," writes Michael Meeropol on the far-left leaning Rag Tag blog.
"I think to a large extent, we ought to stop discussing whether Obama is being 'good' or 'bad' and focus on the policies we want his administration (and Congress) to follow," Meeropol writes.

Ethel & Julius Rosenberg’s deluded son. Well his parents were guilty even though lefties for decades said they were innocent. A friend of a friend’s father worked on the case for the FBI. He said that both of them were guilty as hell. The declassified USSR files also confirmed it.
Yeah...make us more like Russia. I always wanted to stand in line for four hours to buy a loaf of bread. Bunch of fools.
“Shout loud and clear to make the policies move in our direction (far left)”
Nobody has to push a Marxist like Obama to the left, he’s already there. The only challenge Obama sees is to keep the idiots in the press snowed long enough so he can screw this country. As I see it, he’ll do just fine until the revolution starts.
With much less to steal now adays many of them know that to implement their socialist programs would produce immediate negative results. Unfortunately there are far too many that are insane and want to plunge the last free country into oblivion.
I've read stories by Soviet defectors that while they were spies they were not atomic spies. Inside sources had revealed that the FBI was getting close to their true atomic spy so they offered up this couple to allow the real spy to continue his missions.
“...stand in line for four hours to buy a loaf of bread.”
And there will only one type of bread, probably rye, and it will either be moldy or bug-ridden.
I spent 7 months in Red China over the winter of ‘76 - ‘77 working in three remote villages in fertilizer plants. The entire country had one architect, one designer of clothes, and one designer of the few household appliances available. It was the most depressing part of my life.
I’ve heard it said that when toilet paper becomes a luxury you’ve achieved communism.
That's a pretty good benchmark. Communist TP sure wasn't Charmin', that's for sure. It was more like wax paper. Other benchmarks include hot water and electric power for less than 12 hours a day.
Like the scheduled "rolling blackouts" in California?
I don’t believe in holding children responsible for their parents crimes, but every once and a while the communist brats deserve it.
