Glenn Beck had on the program today the CHAIRMAN of Communist Party USA! I can't believe the guy (Sam Webb) actually have the nerve to do a national television show! The communists must figure there isn't any need to hide what they're up to anymore. Sam Webb (chairman CPUSA) talked about (paraphrase) "the great changes to come" for America with the new Obama administration. Absolutely incredible! I have to find and post a youtube clip when it becomes available (if someone beats me to it, that's ok).
Here's a link to Glen Beck's website. However, there isn't much there yet regarding today's program. Perhaps tomorrow he will have a transcript posted.(?)

"The Communist Party USA views the 2008 elections as a tremendous opportunity to defeat the policies of the right-wing Republicans and to move our country in a new progressive direction.
The record turnout in the Democratic Presidential primary races shows that millions of voters, including millions of new voters, are using this election to bring about real change. We wholeheartedly agree with them."

A Landslide Mandate For Change
Congratulations on an extraordinary history making election!
We can think back with pride to decades of hard work toward our strategic goal of a big enough, broad enough and united enough labor and all-people’s movement that could overcome the ultra-right blockage to all progress. That all people’s movement has come to life, it is dynamic and it has the potential to keep growing.
The election of Barack Obama and a strengthened Congress creates new conditions in our country. There is now the possibility to shift gears and move forward. This new day requires us to further develop our tactics in order to continue to deepen and broaden labor and people’s unity.
There are thousands of experiences that we all have had in these momentous days, some large, some small, all of which express the enormity of change in thinking and readiness for involvement that is underway and that steels us for the battles ahead.
The tears of joy we all shared as crowds gathered to watch the election results here and throughout the world dramatize the new moment we are in.

Saul Alinsky on "Change"...
From Rules for Radicals, Alinsky outlines his strategy in organizing, writing:
"There's another reason for working inside the system. Dostoevsky said that taking a new step is what people fear most. Any revolutionary change must be preceded by a passive, affirmative, non-challenging attitude toward change among the mass of our people. They must feel so frustrated, so defeated, so lost, so futureless in the prevailing system that they are willing to let go of the past and change the future. This acceptance is the reformation essential to any revolution."

Not satire.
Great post - please link to any audio/video you can find of this.
Whenever dealing with ‘centrists’ the use of the word communist always earns rolled eyes. To hear the CPUSA chairman make my argument for me will be nice indeed...
Did you or anyone else here see the show?
I did not. I do not want to see it. Was I wrong?
Did Beck play “All Hail The Messiah” for this?
Show just ended 10 minutes ago. Hopefully a youtube will show up in a few hours.
If you didn’t see it, how do you know it wasn’t satire? (which it isn’t)
It was especially amusing when the communist called Glenn a Nazi. Glenn had to explain to him that the Nazis were National SOCIALISTS!
Great television!
The CPUSA Chairman (if that’s really his title) is nothing but a lying senile harmless old fart.
This is no Trotsky, Dzerzhinskii, or Beria with the blood of millions on his hands (don’t he wish).
Pathetic, really.
I choose not watch. Give me an encyclopedia or a dictionary any day. I used to love the news before I realized and had access to the truth.
I was watching the segment with Sam Webb, and it was a two-sided filibuster. Glenn Beck is at least handing back the same tactic the Saul Alinsky types use whenever they are in what amounts to a confrontation. If you can’t convince them with the sterling worth of your position and clever repartee, then squirt the ink all over everything, like the squid making its escape.
I only caught the last portion of the segment. Can't wait for the youtube. Beck didn't seem to know all that much about CPUSA and their history of supporting monsters like Stalin.

Obama’s Red Mentor Praised Red Army
AIM Report | By Cliff Kincaid | April 30, 2008
Barack Obama’s childhood mentor, Frank Marshall Davis, a member of the Moscow-controlled Communist Party USA (CPUSA), wrote a poem dedicated to the Soviet Red Army. “Smash on, victory-eating Red Army,” he declared. He also wrote poems attacking traditional Christianity and the work of Christian missionaries.
The “Red Army” poem goes beyond hoping for the communists to beat the Nazis in World War II and hails the Soviet revolution. It says:
Show the marveling multitudes
Americans, British, all your allied brothers
How strong you are
How great you are
How your young tree of new unity
Planted twenty-five years ago
Bears today the golden fruit of victory!

Frank Marshall Davis
Obama’s Communist Mentor
AIM Column | By Cliff Kincaid | February 18, 2008
excerpt...
"through Frank Marshall Davis, Obama had an admitted relationship with someone who was publicly identified as a member of the Communist Party USA (CPUSA). The record shows that Obama was in Hawaii from 1971-1979, where, at some point in time, he developed a close relationship, almost like a son, with Davis, listening to his 'poetry' and getting advice on his career path. But Obama, in his book, Dreams From My Father, refers to him repeatedly as just 'Frank.'
The reason is apparent: Davis was a known communist who belonged to a party subservient to the Soviet Union. In fact, the 1951 report of the Commission on Subversive Activities to the Legislature of the Territory of Hawaii identified him as a CPUSA member. What's more, anti-communist congressional committees, including the House Un-American Activities Committee (HUAC), accused Davis of involvement in several communist-front organizations."
Frank Chapman, a CPUSA supporter, has written a letter to the party newspaper hailing the Illinois senator's victory in the Iowa caucuses:
"Obama’s victory was more than a progressive move; it was a dialectical leap ushering in a qualitatively new era of struggle. Marx once compared revolutionary struggle with the work of the mole, who sometimes burrows so far beneath the ground that he leaves no trace of his movement on the surface. This is the old revolutionary 'mole,' not only showing his traces on the surface but also breaking through."

Barack Obama, Frank Marshall Davis, Vernon Jarrett - One Degree of Seperation
New Zeal blog ^ | Oct 17, 2008 | Trevor Loudon
"Why did Barack Obama move to Chicago? Why did he choose a city famous for its corruption and distrust of outsiders as a launching pad for his political career? Did Obama's boyhood mentor, life long communist Frank Marshall Davis influence that choice?"
http://newzeal.blogspot.com/2008/10/obama-file-38-barack-obama-frank.html
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________
From the Traditional Values Coalition, March 13, 2008:
"At some point in the 1970s when Barack was attending school in Hawaii, he became acquainted with Frank Marshall Davis, a member of the Communist Party, USA. Davis had moved to Hawaii in 1948 from Chicago where he had been involved in Marxist-related activities.
In Hawaii, he became a mentor to Barack Obama, the man who seeks the Presidency of the United States.
Kathryn Waddell Takara, Ph.D., a Professor of Interdisciplinary Studies at the University of Hawaii, has written at least two lengthy analysis of Frank M. Davis’s political activities both in Hawaii and while he was living in Chicago. Takara created the first Black Studies department at the U of H in 1971 and is an associate of such notable leftists as Angela Davis and Stokely Carmichael.
Takara’s paper, 'Frank Marshall Davis: Black Labor Activist and Outsider Journalist: Social Movements In Hawaii,' describes Davis’ radical activities in Hawaii as both a writer and labor organizer.
How this committed Communist became a mentor to Barack Obama remains a mystery, but it is likely that his mother was somehow involved in far left activities in Hawaii and met Davis through her left-wing network on the University of Hawaii campus. Perhaps an enterprising reporter could ask Senator Obama how he met Davis and what sort of influence he may have had on him. Likewise, one can only speculate on the influence his rebellious, left-wing mother had on his political beliefs and aspirations.

That was a great show!
I saw it - I sort of cringed when GB called the Nazi’s the “Nationalized Socialists.”
That would be, “National Socialists...”
German: Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei
When will Obama's handlers and puppetmasters let Obama appear on the show?
Me too, but I'm sure Glenn knows the difference. In the rough and tumble of the interview, I chalked it up to a slip of the tongue.
The point of it, of course, was that the communist gasbag seemed unaware that the Nazis were socialists. Notice Glenn's swipe at Wikipedia too? Funny stuff.
