Rep. Allen West: 80 Communist Party Members In U.S. House
CBS Miami ^ | April 11, 2012

Posted on 04/11/2012 11:11:18 AM PDT by Free ThinkerNY

MIAMI (CBSMiami) – It wasn’t quite Joseph McCarthy waving around papers claiming to know of communists in the federal government, but according to the Palm Beach Post, Congressman Allen West claims he “has heard” there are communists in the House of Representatives.

According to the Post, West was talking to Jensen Beach voters this week when he said President Barack Obama was “scared” to have a discussion with him.

West then said that “he’s heard” up to 80 members of the U.S. House of Representatives are Communist Party members, but declined to give the names of any of the alleged members, according to the Post.

A communist is a socialist who wants to be one of the few who lives high on the hog.

So right. No one who advocates communism believes they will be living any other way when it comes. Amazing ain't it.

Not sure where you were, but the link I hit tried to place me in Barbra Lee's House page but she's not there anymore, so it bounces over to Cleaver. Piss poor web design - but then it's good enough for government work! ;^)

The CBC is affiliated (strongly) with DSA/USA, and they are both offshoots of Socialist International.

There's little difference between socialism and communism unless you're a party official.

Maybe that is what was happening to me. The pages were changing so fast, that I couldn’t read what they were. Maybe I had three pages before the error message. I never even heard of Emanuel Cleaver before. Barbara Lee, I am familiar with, somewhat.

Most of the time, I just got an error message.

He says that he won’t name names, but then he outs the Congressional Progressive Caucus. Progressivism has a direct link to Communism, ergo every member is either not aware of what they espouse, or are fully aware and in support of it.

"Demand they define the difference or suck it up and defend communism."

Well said.

That number, 57 communists, was taken off a bottle of Heinz Ketchup in the movie. It was something to gain attention to Raymond Shaw’s mother’s husband in order to get him the nomination for President. Then years later we have John Kerry (who served in Viet Nam) marrying a woman... well you know. Interesting.

He joined in order to preclude them from being able to operate under the radar without scrutiny.

O my Gosh... All of a sudden anticapitalist progressives, communists and liberals are against “guilt by association”... and McCarthyism... all the while Zero favors his political donors...

How about that!? (sarc off)

They all are utterly corrupt and deranged hypocritical individual without any shame. The only thing holding them in their arrogance right now is corrupt money and the globalist battle fckr mindset.

Whether it is covering up for the fact that gays should be sued for spreading AIDS, or Mitterand the socialistas gangsta for covering up Soviet corruption by not handing out KI during the Chernobyle disaster, and all this EU/US/SSR project, they all are corrupt and mentaly diseased.

I say, embrace the suck, “be” a liberal today, and watch your sanity go down in flames. Embrace the PC blue falcon way in their midst. It is the way to get in their ranks and check it out as a good journalist. It’s entertaining.

I hadn't looked at the debt clock in several months. One thing that's not highlighted is that the clock represents stale government data from 2 years ago - forcasted to the present date/time. It's not "real time" like portrayed.

Also, I noticed the tabs at the bottom on Gold Demand. What really jumped out is the demand in ounces by India of 40B, China of 30.8B, Vietnam 4B, USA of 6.8B, German of 6.1B, Turkey of 5.5B, Saudi of 2.3B, and UK, Italy, France < 1B (only 351,000 oz. for France). Why would the EURO countries, except Germany, have such paltry demand for gold...? Hmmmm....
