At his first polygraph test to enter the CIA, the future director had a secret.

John Brennan on Thursday recalled being asked a standard question for a top security clearance at his early CIA lie detector test: Have you ever worked with or for a group that was dedicated to overthrowing the US? "I froze," Brennan said during a panel discussion about diversity in the intelligence community at the Congressional Black Caucus Foundation's annual conference. "This was back in 1980, and I thought back to a previous election where I voted, and I voted for the Communist Party candidate,"

Lets see, in 1976 he was 21 years old.... not saying his vote wasn’t stupid, but I sure know who am I am no is not who I was when I was 21.

The simple counter to your question is....

How can a man who persecuted and hunted down Christians wind up the head of the Church?

St. Paul... There would not be Christianity as we know it today without him. Most likely would have died out, or been little more than a small sect in the middle east.

One of Obama's White House staff was Van Jones, who was forced out by public outcry over his being a self-avowed communist.

Obama's administration was full of our enemies. Look at the weaponization he created at the IRS, EPA, DOJ, FBI, etc. They all looked like the communist party in action.

His only guide to the presidency was Rules for Radicals by Saul Alinsky, another self-avowed communist.

The CP of the USA endorses democRAT candidates and was 100% behind Obama. Their policies and platforms mimic the democRATS.

And it's not just Obama. Look at Hillary. One of her mentors and heroes is Saul Alinsky.

So for all intents and purposes, the democRAT party and the Communist Party of the USA are one in the same.

No matter how young and stupid I ever used to be- I never voted for a communist

Me neither. None of us who actually lived through the Cold War ever would have.

Besides being a seditious far-left crypto Muslim, Brennan also appears to an absolute insufferable A-hole. Just a real nasty piece of work.

Only an usurper would appoint a muslim as CIA Director.

Islam has been at war with the USA since its founding as they have been at war with the rest of humanity since 622 A.D.

Worse. He’s a Muslim convert. How crazy do you have to be to ditch Christianity or Judaism for that madness?

...because there’s so many communists in the media they wouldn’t even consider it to be an issue worth reporting on.

Never a Democrat vote in your life? Commendable. I used to split my ticket locally and in the district congressional race to vote for people I knew who did a good job; that was before the RATs illness spread to the lower ranks.

Is he a communist and a subversive, or just an idiot who pissed away his vote? I’m thinking the former. A frivolous vote wouldn’t seem to be something that would stick in one’s conscience, or even memory, for forty years.


Look at the audience where he chose to share this decades old indiscretion. He knew they wouldn't care!

I've never voter for a democrat! (maybe the same thing)

Luckily when I was in Jr. High I discovered "Firing Line". Flipping channels one night on our basement T.V., I heard this guy with a weird accent. (Buckley). I was enthralled, started watching every week and luckily I listened to what he was saying.

My dad found out what I was doing and I think he thought I was strange. Met Buckley's son several years ago and told him that story and I think he agreed with my dad!

Personally I feel I lucked out big time and thank God for Mr. Buckley.
