As the Massachusetts blame game unfolds, the president’s unpopular health bill leads the list. But the substantive provisions of the bill were just part of the problem. Perhaps more important, voters were appalled by how the deal unfolded. Consider the pre-election giveaway to the labor unions. Negotiators agreed to exempt union contracts until 2018 from the tax on so-called Cadillac health-insurance plans. That backroom bargain not only outraged the voters, it also violated the Fifth Amendment to the Constitution, requiring the federal government to extend equal protection of the laws to all U.S. persons. Of course, not all voters understood the constitutional nuances, but they sensed that something was very wrong; and they reacted.
I have been disturbed by the socialists for years, ever since I learned many members of Congress 'openly' joined the DSA (Democratic Socialists of America). Several years ago, the names were published on the DSA site. (since removed of course) Please post any info you have, many of you have been on this issue for many years, & if we can store it all on one thread, we have our FreeRepublic Warehouse on the enemies of the state. How DO we combat this, when it's coming at us from every angle? When the people have been asleep for decades. Please post anything you have found or accumulated. Also choose a dictator these people follow, of particular interest,those in D.C. who have been quoted with their adulation of one.

That was one of the best, most informative shows I’ve ever seen.
I must admit, I don’t know much about Woodrow Wilson and fully intend to read up on him. Also plan to read the books by the three authors on this show.
I never considered that there are progressive republicans...that’s how naive I am.

Not naive sweetie, we just are not informed on Socialsts past, we sure are now! GB has taught us how important that is. By knowing which ex-prez current ones align themselves to, that tells us everything. We are getting so edumacted, yay! And then the amazing FReepers we have, the best education is right here.

Cop Killer's Caucus
In a strongly-worded statement today, the Congressional Tri-Caucus, which represents three minority caucuses, denounced a call by four GOP lawmakers (Reps. John Shadegg (AZ), Paul Broun (GA), Trent Franks (AZ) and Sue Myrick (NC)) for an investigation into whether Muslim "intern spies" have infiltrated the Hill.
"These charges smack of an America of sixty years ago where lists of 'un-American' agitators were identified," said Reps. Michael Honda (D-CA), Barbara Lee (D-CA), and Nydia Velazquez (D-NY). They are the chairs of the Asian Pacific American Caucus, the Black Caucus, and the Hispanic Caucus, respectively.

“The Congressional Black Caucus remains committed to working with President Obama and our Congressional leadership to address the very real economic crisis gripping our nation, which is particularly acute in communities of color.“

Regarding FDR, I used to think that the only good thing he did economically was to reform the banking system. Guess what? He messed that up too. Recent reforms are only compounding the problem.
Canadian Banks vs. US Banks
Mark Stein recently said that Canadian banks are doing much better than US banks because they aren’t being regulated as heavily [and not coerced into risky loans]. Google research revealed something almost as intersting:

I agree Piper, Beck’s Friday show was one of his best and his three guests were excellent!
Their ability to show how progressivism weaved its evil spell though our politics.
Today they are have become full blown progressive fascists, headed by an arrogant, narcissistic, elitist!
Pray for our country and Be Ever Vigilant!

Special thanks to Seek for this!
I've been following my home state of Illinois closely due tothe fact it seems the candidate who will win the Republican nod is a conservative-progressive. Wanted to share the danger of so many moderates who have voted the RINO side, becoming Senators. We are replacing the Progressives, actually, with their own.
~Snips
The Republican front runner is Mark Kirk, an Illinois representative who was one of only 8 Republicans who voted for Cap and Trade; and who voted for the TARP bailouts
An Independence Caucus research team has been looking into Mark Kirk’s money trail back to the 30 companies that got 95% of all the TARP money. (Kirk voted in favor of TARP)
Wait until you see how much money Kirk has been receiving each month from those 30 bailout companies since he voted for TARP...it’s simply amazing. PLEASE review the video and forward this information to everyone you know.....the election is just 4 days away and voters in Illinois need to see this information before they vote!
We need a Illinois Miracle!!!
