There is no common ground between Liberty and Statism.

I really hope this is just diplomacy: The art of saying “nice doggie” while looking for a rock.

Let’s pull up all the promises of bipartisanship, compromise and working with the Republican leadership made by Pelosi and Reid when they took over in 2006:

All done. That didn’t take long.

Screw the commies and smash the system that lets them run roughshod over American values

Any GOP Congressman who isn’t prepared to go to DC to fight the the communists is a sworn enemy of the working taxpayer and must be destroyed.

That includes the GOP-e blue blood country clubbers and their greedy pulled back wives, and any other sorry son of a bitch who thinks campaign commercials are going to beat those who intend to go to DC not to work with the communists and reform the system, but to destroy the communists and smash the system.

COMMUNISM

IN THE U. S. A.

The first of a series on the Communist conspiracy and its influence in this country as a whole, on religion, on education, on labor and on our government

“No Communist, no matter how many votes he should secure in a national election, could, even if he would, become President of the present government.

When a Communist heads the govern- ment of the United States — and that day will come just as surely as the sun rises— the government will not he a capitalist government but a Soviet government, and behind this government will stand the Red army to enforce the dictatorship of the proletariat, ‘’

Sworn statement of WILLIAM Z. FOSTER

Head of the Communist Party in the United States

If you ever find yourself in open debate with a Communist the facts here given can be used to destroy his arguments completely and expose him as he is for all to see.

Every citizen owes himself and his family the truth about Com- munism because the world today is faced with a single choice: To go Communist or not to go Communist. Here are the facts.

1 . What is Com-munism? A system by which one small group seeks to rule the world.

2. Has any nation ever gone Communist in a free election?

No. 3. Then how do the Communists try to get control?

Legally or illegally, any way they can. Communism’s first big victory was through bloody revolution. Every one since has been by military conquest, or internal corruption, or the threat of these.

CONSPIRACY is the basic method of Communism in countries it is trying to capture.

IRON FORCE is the basic method of Communism in countries it has already captured.

1 2. What would happen to my insurance? The Communists would take it over.

34. Where are their headquarters in the United States, and who is in charge?

Headquarters are at 35 East Twelfth Street, New York City. Wil- liam Z. Foster, of 1040 Melton Avenue, New York City, has the title of “Chairman of the Communist Party of the United States,” but Foster is actually just a figurehead under control of foreign operatives unseen by and unknown to rank and file Communists.

55. What is the emblem of the Communist Party in the United States? The hammer and sickle.

36. What is the emblem of the Communist Party in the Soviet Union? The hammer and sickle.

57. What is the flag of the Communist Party in the United States? The red flag, the same as that of all Communist Parties of the world.

49. What kind of people become Communists?

The real center of power in Communism is within the professional classes.

Of course, a few poor people respond to the Communist claim that it is a “working class movement.”

But taken as a whole the Party depends for its strength on the sup- port it gets from teachers, preachers, actors, writers, union officials, doctors, lawyers, editors, businessmen, and even from millionaires.

This primary season has to be about drawing lines and targeting GOP-E that is willing to work with the communists and turning the primary into a referendum on communists and their fellow travelers in the GOP.

Naming names.

ANY GOP willing to work with communists needs to go.

Playing nice with the reds is no longer to be tolerated.

The whole RNC/GOP Washingtonian political class in DC needs to be decimated, this is revolution.

No common ground exists between good and evil.

That’s the problem with the GOP leadership - it thinks the other side wants the same thing we do.

Reince Priebus hasn’t learned the lesson of this election: the American people don’t want half a loaf of Obama’s policies. They want none of it.

If he doesn’t understand that, he’s in the wrong business and so is his party.

Tone Deaf. Rush is right. The people didn’t vote for common ground. They voted for what’s happening to stop.

Common ground?? Yes, both the GOPe and Obama want to continue the march toward big government, big spending and the destruction of our culture.

If midterm election night had gone well for the Dems, they would not be seeking common ground with the GOP.

This election means absolutely nothing if current leadership isn’t removed.

The establishment are closet liberals who want a kinder and gentler Obamaism.

Excuse me but I was under the distinct impression that is exactly what the American people voted to repudiate last night.

What the hell is wrong with the GOP leadership that they immediately rush to give away the store?

You don’t see the Democrats do that when they win.

They should extend EXACTLY the same kind of “Bipartisanship” that the Democrats have offered them for the last 8 years.

EXACTLY the same kind...

Exactly.

The American people say N-O to more of O-B-A-M-A.

What is the GOP elite finds hard to understand about it?

It was evident in the near universal rejection of the Democrats.

Not a chance.

The Dems play for keeps, while the GOPe plays footsie.

Unless it is conservatives they’re up against, of course.

Then it’s WWIII.
