A Democrat State Representative, a former Democrat State Senator and a local Union President walked into a public high school in Connecticut to receive a Communist award.

Sounds like the beginning of a bad joke right?

I only wish it was…

According to an article on the Communist Party USA (CPUSA) News, People’s World, in December of 2013 a Communist award ceremony was held in a New Haven Connecticut public high school auditorium where the Democrat State Rep, Former Democrat State Senator and the local Union President all received awards:

"Former state Senator Ed Gomes, a steelworker,

state representative Edwin Vargas, a teacher

, and Laurie Kennington, president of Local 34 clerical and technical workers at Yale

all accepted large framed posters of the Amistad statue that stands in front of New Haven City Hall, cheered on by family, friends, co-workers, elected officials and union and community leaders. "

Should we be surprised? Do you know when the last Presidential nominee for the Communist Party USA was?

The last time was in 1984. They simply did not see the point since they controlled the ComDem (Democrat) Party since the 1970's.

While the D party often proposed socialist programs , it used to scrupulously avoid and always deny any connection with “ real commies. “. This ain’t your grandpa’s D party anymore. And the clearer the R candidates point this out, the more D voters will wake up and switch

Does the oath of citizenship say anything about Communist affiliation? Are citizens these days bound that oath?

A socialist is just a gutless commie.

But, anchor babies take no such oath.

Natural Born Citizens take no such oath.

Citizens by birth take no such oath.

This may be an area we should revisit when the tide is more in favor of natural law.

yes some are just that.
but many are just “caring people” who want more govt programs than you or I do
but they can also be very anti-Commie

or at least do not wish a dictatorship (like we are getting now)

please don’t discount or condemn all D voters (as, for instance, cowardly commies) because many just aren’t...
and they can and may very well vote for something else than what we are getting now
