Rep. Allen West Says There Are Communists in Congress; Is He Right?

Is He Right?

Of course he is, the ‘rat party is the party of Marx, Lenin, Stalin, etal.

Of course there are Communists in Congress, some of them have admitted as much. Doesn’t make it untrue just because a Republican/conservative says there are commies there.

If it looks like a t*rd
And if it weighs about the same as a t*rd
And if it stinks like a t*rd

Then it’s a communist...

And wait, there’s more

It’s also an Obama.

What’s the diff between a lib and a commie?

Thinking....thinking........

Yeah, of both parties

Where is good old Joe McCarthy now? Of COURSE this country is infested with commies. duh.

This is partly why the schools have dumbed down the children for decades. The commies including Nikita Khrushchev with his pounding of his shoe in 1960 on the desk at the UN said “we will bury you” and without firing one shot. Well, guess what, folks. His words are ringing truer every day.

Commies goal - take down your country by taking over the banks, destroying capitalism while increasing the size of government, indoctrinate your children at a very young age and destroy / ridicule / eliminate religion. Well, well, folks - exactly what is going on in our great country.

It’s time for us to fight again for freedom - as it is NOT free. Do your part as it’s our generation’s duty to secure freedom for the future in this great nation.

Does a cat have a climbing gear!?

Some sure like what they read from communist;

Senator Klobuchar (D-Mn) 2009
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=goTYOjh2q9M&feature=related

Klobuchar “As Van Jones has said, who is a guy who has written a book about the green collar economy, when you think about the green economy, don’t think about Buck Rogers; think about joe six-pack putting on a green hard hat.”

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Van_Jones#Earlier_activism
In October 2005 Jones said he was “a rowdy nationalist”[14] before the King verdict was announced, but that by August of that year (1992) he was a communist.

lol

There has been commies in congress since McCarthy. It’s so ironic that McCarthy was right, and yet he is demonized as if he was wrong.

We don't have to pussy-foot around with terms like "Progressive" and assertions that their goals are "similar" to those of the Communist Party. Here is a nearly ten-year-old FR link listing the membership of the Democratic Socialists of America:

"Surprise! Nancy Pelosi is really, and officially, a self-confessed Socialist!"

And here is the list via "the internet wayback machine". (From that page: "At one time, the following list of members could be located on the DSA web site. However, Once this list was made public, The DSA removed the link to the Web page that listed the following members.")

Never a truer statement has been spoken. That is ALL the Democrat party is as well as a geat deal of the Republican party which is why we have a liberal pushed in our face as the nominee. And people called Sen. Joseph McCarthy paranoid, a zealot. Well look where we are today: THE major political party in the USA is now completely run by Communists. And if that isn’t bad enough, probably the most fervent communist of them all is POTUS who is now only one election away from changing the entire country commie. The Russians must be laughing their asses off at us.

Jan Schakowsky? Barbara Boxer? Barbara Lee? Patty Murray?
James Clyburn? Bobby Rush? Maxine Waters?

Nope, I don’t see any commies in this group/s.

I don’t see any difference between a progressive and a communist. The communists don’t want to admit who they are until after they have consolidated power. Fidel Castro was a freedom fighter until he consolidated power.

Even if the individual is a registered Democrat, if Compusa endorsed him, then he’s obviously a Communist.

Compusa even endorsed Obama.

Case closed.

Here, let me fix that for you: DC ~~has~~ is an infestation.

I don't know why they are listed as Honorable

Using information from the Center for Responsive Politics (www.opensecrets.org), I’ve separated the members of the Congressional Progressive Caucus into four groups.

[YES] = Most top campaign contributors are public-employee or labor unions
[MOSTLY] = Many top campaign contributors are public-employee or labor unions
[MIXED] = Some top campaign contributors are public-employee or labor unions, but some are not
