Which one will Glenn “out” next? LOL!

[Marty62]

Is that book for real; “A Post American World”. And he is openly flaunting his plan to destroy America.

[joesjane]

Here is what I want to know, what the hell is the behavioral science czar going to do?

[joesjane]

hmmm that sounds vaguely familiar:-)

[The Doctor]

Makes you wonder if Repubs are complicit in this game (shadow govt), too. The “I won’t mess up your sandbox if you won’t mess up mine” game. That has to be what happened with Dems. Now, what about the Republicans?

[Old Professer]

About five lines a day...

Why not call them ‘commissars’? That is what they really are, and correctly draws the parallel to the Soviet era apparatchiks of the same designation. ‘Czar’ is too much of an honorific and implies a freedom of action that Zero’s commissars certainly don’t have. Btw, this wasn’t originally my idea. Pravda first suggested this correction, and if Pravda doesn’t know whether ‘Czar’ or ‘Commissar’ is more correct for 0bama’s attempt to short circuit the Legislative Branch, then nobody does.

I’m no expert on all this, but every article I read by freepers always seems to turn up a whole lot of the same communist/”green”/”progressive” type organizations and fronts. I think they definitely are all connected, probably by links set in place by subversive communists way back in the 60’2,70’s. Here’s just one example http://www.americanthinker.com/2009/09/the_brainwashing_bunch.html

[boxlunch]

I agree. Great thoughts. If we only hear crickets chirping, we know the Repubs are part of the whole “deal”

here’s one from mark lloyd and someone named kofi,”the value of the tax certificate” pdf 1998 or so

I noticed in the pdf file, it says Lloyd was with the Tides Center, a non-profit organization to "provide fiscal sponsorship to progressive groups" - (IOW lefty organization). Lloyd wasn't on the "czar" list. He's obama's "diversity officer" at the FCC. Don't know if that qualifies him as a czar or what. Anywho, this article explains why conservatives are leary of his appointment. FCC's New Hire Targeted Conservative Radio Stations in Writings From the article:

............"Mark Lloyd, .........., is under attack for authoring a June 2007 report entitled "The Structural Imbalance of Political Talk Radio" and a subsequent essay, "Forget the Fairness Doctrine." "..............

....................""What he lays out is a battle plan to use the FCC to threaten stations' licenses with whom they do not agree with politically, and now he's at the FCC waiting to take their calls," Motley told FOXNews.com. "This is not about serving the local interest, it's about political opposition."...............

And then there's this nugget about his admiration for Hugo Chavez and his "revolution". Hugo Chavez Comes to FCC

........."There he was in 2008, participating in a conference on ``media reform," telling us what a wonderful leader Venezuela's Hugo Chavez, was, and wincing at an unpleasantness the dictator had to deal with, the uppity owners of media, people who had some objections in mind.

He spoke of Chavez's ``incredible revolution, a democratic revolution," and of the ``property owners and the folks who then controlled the media in Venezuela" who ``rebelled" and who ``worked to oust him." Still, said Lloyd, Chavez ``came back with another revolution, and then ... began to take very seriously the media in his country.""...............

Nutjob.

Van Jones became a revolutionary communist following the 1992 L.A./Rodney King Riots (58 dead)
various sources

Posted on Sunday, September 06, 2009 10:19:07 AM by ETL

"Jones was arrested during the L.A. riots and spent a short time in jail. "I met all these young radical people of color," he recalls, 'I mean really radical: communists and anarchists. And it was, like, "This is what I need to be a part of." I spent the next ten years of my life working with a lot of those people I met in jail, trying to be a revolutionary.'..."

From David Horowitz's FrontpageMag.com /DiscoverTheNetworks.org:

"Throughout its history, one of RCP's [Revolutionary Communist Party] principal objectives has been to foment civil unrest in the United States. The most notable example of such efforts occurred on April 29, 1992, when RCP members looted and trashed the downtown and government districts of Los Angeles, triggering the infamous Rodney King riots. During the days immediately preceding the violence, RCP -- which maintained close ties to the L.A. gangs known as the Crips and the Bloods -- had circulated throughout South Central Los Angeles a leaflet featuring a statement by RCP National Spokesman Carl Dix, titled 'It's Right To Rebel' -- a quote popularized by Mao Zedong.

Encouraged by Dix, RCP activists helped lead the riots that would leave 58 people dead, more than 2,300 people injured, some 5,300 buildings burned, and $1 billion in property damaged or destroyed. On the ten-year anniversary of the rioting, RCP member Joseph Veale fondly recalled the violence as 'the most beautiful, the most heroic civil action in the history of the United States.'"

...a little googling goes a long way if we have willing hands...

Saving BUMP! The hands are willing, but when you work on commission, you must allocate time wisely (maybe that’s why I’m not rich).
