Obama is a Socialist at best...it only rolls downhill from there. I can’t stand his anti-America, anti-Capitalist, anti-freedom UNCONSTITUTIONAL, ramming it down our throats, taking away our freedoms “platform.” Impeach. Impeach. Impeach. He is not protecting our Constitution. He might as well set it on fire.
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."
Saul Alinsky, The Latter Rain (LatterRain.com is a "Liberation Theology" commie-left website -etl)

"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.

While Alinski may have been right wrt strategy, I think it is just possible that nero and his fellow travellers jumped the shark. The real groundswell for change is rising - witness the tea parties - but NOT in the socialist direction. Quite the opposite in fact.
examiner.com is not in San Francisco, though it is the daddy of sfexaminer.com.
I agree.
Thanks for the ping!
Thanks for the clarification! ...Judging by their headnote graphic, they must not be anxious to reveal that particular distinction...?
Yes Ma’am.
