This guy sound like a "right-wing extremist" to you? He sounds more like Obama or one of his many revolutionary-left associates!

Obama Espoused Radical Views in College
(advocated communist revolution!)

Steve Malzberg - WOR News Talk Radio 710 ^ | February 12, 2010 | Ronald Kessler

Dr. John C. Drew, a grant writing consultant in Laguna Niguel, Calif., tells Newsmax he met Obama in 1980 when Obama was a sophomore at Occidental College in Los Angeles. Drew had just graduated from Occidental and was attending graduate school at Cornell University.

During Christmas break, Drew says he was at Grauman-Boss’ home in Palo Alto when Obama came over with Mohammed Hasan Chandoo, his roommate from Pakistan.

“Barack [Obama] and Hasan showed up at the house in a BMW, and then we went to a restaurant together,” Drew says. “We had a nice meal, and then we came back to the house and smoked cigarettes and drank and argued politics.”

For the next several hours, they discussed Marxism.

He [Obama] was arguing a straightforward Marxist-Leninist class-struggle point of view, which anticipated that there would be a revolution of the working class, led by revolutionaries, who would overthrow the capitalist system and institute a new socialist government that would redistribute the wealth,” says Drew, who says he himself was then a Marxist.

The idea was basically that wealthy people were exploiting others,” Drew says. “That this was the secret of their wealth, that they weren’t paying others enough for their work, and they were using and taking advantage of other people. He was convinced that a revolution would take place, and it would be a good thing.”

Drew concluded that Obama thought of himself as “part of an intelligent, radical vanguard that was leading the way towards this revolution and towards this new society.” ..."

Referring to Obama’s quote from “Dreams of My Father” that he associated with Marxist professors, Drew says, “What he’s not saying is that he was in 100 percent total agreement with those Marxist professors. When you understand that, Obama’s later associations and policies make more sense, including why he was taken in by Rev. Wright’s ideology.”

Check out this thread:

How long did it take for the left to blame tea partiers for Austin plane attack?

Pelosi already accused him of being a teabagger terrorist.

He was rambling. I didn’t read it as bashing capitalism — just bashing the pseudo-capitalism that our increasingly socialist-Marxist government is imposing on us.

Businessmen have existed for thousands of years, and old civilizations have dealt with them and quantified their characteristics before Karl Marx and Adam Smith wrote about them and the GOP/Dem established philosophies in dealing with them.
My favorite is from the Far East, ancient Chinese/Korean kings would advise their crown princes the following - “Merchant class is important to a kingdom because they produce significant wealth for the realm. However merchants are capable of being wicked and greedy. They can corrupt officials and cheat the people. A wise ruler always keep an eye on them. If they are caught, a ruler must find a way to punish the guilty ones without destroying the rest of the merchants’ abilities to make money.”
In other words, Dems tend to punish all businessmen for the misbehavior of the few, while the GOP tend to trust and protect all businessmen including the wicked ones. Neither approach is good for this country.

The capitalist creed: From each according to his gullibility, to each according to his greed."

Isn't that from some Michael Douglas movie? This guy was warped by Hollywood I think.

Joe Stack apparently suffered from a catastrophe of faith.

His faith in government collapsed. This paints him as a progressive.

A hard core statist who in the end discovered the fraud in statism.
