"The [my] only connection [to the Republican Party]is I'm registered as a Republican"--Mitt RRRRRomney

The casual consumer of news hears it all the time and not just from Democratic pundits. Reporters, pundits, and concern trolls in the media fret that Romney has had to move too far right. He’s just too conservative.
These same people never stop to examine Barack Obama. Between the two, Barack Obama has repeatedly surrounded himself with people who actually don’t much care for the United States. Writing that may anger people, but it is actual, factual, fact.
Instead of considering if Mitt Romney is too far to the right, perhaps we should consider if Barack Obama is too far to the left.
Barack Obama notes in his fictionalized autobiography that everyone bought and no one read that Frank Marshall Davis was an influence in his life. The Obama campaign disputes how much of an influence Davis was, but he had enough of an impact that Obama took time in Chicago to visit places Davis lived.
Davis was an activist communist and friend of Obama’s grandfather.
Barack Obama left Hawaii, went to Chicago, and sat in Jeremiah Wright’s church for 20 years. Among other things, Jeremiah Wright mouthed off from the pulpit about the “U.S. of KKK A”.
When he got his jump start into the major political arena, Barack Obama held a fundraiser in the living room of terrorists who had tried to kill police officers and blow up the Pentagon.
In fact, one of the terrorists, Bill Ayers, told the New York Times on September 11, 2001:
”I don’t regret setting bombs,” Bill Ayers said. ”I feel we didn’t do enough.”
During Barack Obama’s political career in Chicago, he headlined an event for the Democratic Socialists of America and joined the communist rooted New Party in Chicago as a way to get leverage on the ballot.
In the White House he appointed Van Jones, a self-described communist and Kevin Jennings who has his own far-left outside the mainstream issues.
And now out on the campaign trail, Barack Obama is peddling grade school Marxism in the name of fairness.
The left may keep up the drumbeat on Mitt Romney’s conservatism, but I’d like to think some Super PAC somewhere will make sure the public knows what the media won’t tell them — Barack Obama has spent a lot of time surrounded by people who hold the founding ideals of this country in contempt.
It is an inconvenient fact “reasonable” people are not supposed to discuss, but it also happens to be true.
Ya do know that the “Too Far to the Right” meme is being put out to manipulate the public and has absolutely nothing to with reality?
The Democrats, through the MSM, have been moving mainstream Americans farther and farther to the left. A 1960’s Democrat would consider the ‘Pubbies to be liberal panty waists and Democrats to be outright commies.
so what are you saying I should do?
vote for your socialist because he is better than their socialist?
vote for someone who enacted their own assault weapons ban?
vote for the father of the 50 dollar abortion?
vote for the author of fubocare (mcromney care)?
vote for the largest tax and spender the republicans have ever put forth?
vote for the man who took pride in stacking his states court system with liberals?
vote for someone who stands for EVERYTHING that I am against, and against EVERYTHING that I stand for?
Sorry pal, I have my standards, as low as they are.
mcromney does not even come close to meeting the minimum requirements of my standards.
The question is as follows: Do you support socialism or do you not support socialism?
Either you do or you don’t.......
I await your answer.
Let's see you come up with something which even "Closely" resembles this?
Waiting!!!
What's that I hear?
Crickets chirping???
Simple. I do not vote for repugnant candidates just because they carry an “R” after their name. Willard IS the most vile and repugnant, anti-Conservative and anti-Republican candidate imaginable. The damage this cretin could wreak on the party and the Conservative movement could reach Nixonian proportions (if not worse). We wouldn’t even have ZeroCare today had Willard’s own Socialist plan not been enacted by him in Massachusetts. And this is what is going to save the republic ?
If he is the nominee, I vote for Virgil Goode. Why vote for one of the two annointed big government cabal evils ?
So vote for the RED RINO Socialist over the Stalinist Mohammadan. Why that’ll save the country !
[Romney has had to move too far right]
Comrade Corporate Collectivist Romney could move right until the Sun flames out — but it wouldn’t/doesn’t change the fact that he’s nothing but a leftist Quisling carpetbagger.
F Mitt and the Chameleon he rode in on.
The Communist. Frank Marshall Davis: THE UNTOLD STORY OF BARACK OBAMA’S MENTOR

Front Page Magazine
http://frontpagemag.com/2012/jamie-glazov/the-communist-frank-marshall-davis-the-untold-story-of-barack-obama%E2%80%99s-mentor/
Frontpage Interview’s guest today is Paul Kengor, Ph.D., a bestselling author whose works include Dupes: How America’s Adversaries Have Manipulated Progressives for a Century; and The Crusader: Ronald Reagan and the Fall of Communism.
He is the author of the new book, The Communist. Frank Marshall Davis: The Untold Story of Barack Obama’s Mentor.
Ok, so who was Frank Marshall Davis?
Kengor: Frank Marshall Davis, Communist Party USA (CPUSA) number 47544, was a 20th century American who wrote pro-Soviet propaganda in newspaper columns and was a loyal Soviet patriot.
FP: What do you mean by “loyal Soviet patriot?”
Kengor: While it will shock naïve liberals who still don’t grasp the horrors of communism, readers of FrontPage will understand. Leftist Americans who took the extraordinary step of joining CPUSA swore a loyalty oath to the USSR—Stalin’s USSR in the case of Frank Marshall Davis.
FP: When did Frank Marshall Davis join the Communist Party?
Kengor: Remarkably, he joined early in World War II, after the Hitler-Stalin Pact—a period when many Party members bolted the Party because they were outraged at Stalin signing that pact with Hitler. That pact, of course, precipitated the invasion of Poland and World War II. Jewish American communists in particular were aghast. The man in Moscow to whom they swore their unwavering allegiance had helped pave the way for the Holocaust.
I must note that it was also through this group that Davis would work with Robert Taylor, who just happened to be the grandfather of Valerie Jarrett.
FP: That’s remarkable. Valerie Jarrett today is Obama’s right-hand woman in the White House.
Kengor: Yes, and it’s even more eerie than that. Frank Marshall Davis, Obama’s mentor, also worked with Vernon Jarrett in these circles.
Vernon Jarrett was Valerie’s father-in-law. And it’s worse still. Davis, Obama’s mentor, also worked with Harry and David Canter, two other Chicago communists. The Canters mentored a young man named David Axelrod in Chicago in the 1970s.
SO, THE TROIKA THAT’S ARGUABLY RUNNING AMERICA TODAY—OBAMA AND VALERIE JARRETT AND DAVID AXELROD—ALL HAVE COMMON BONDS IN CHICAGO’S COMMUNIST CIRCLES FROM THE 1940S. THEIR MENTORS KNEW EACH OTHER. (Emphasis Added)
I know this is incredible, but it’s true. You couldn’t make this up. No one would believe it. WE’RE BEING GOVERNED BY GHOSTS FROM CHICAGO’S COMMUNIST PARTY GLORY YEARS. (Emphasis added)
FP: Are there other people that Frank Marshall Davis worked with in Chicago who have relevance today?
Kengor: Oh, yes, I could go on and on. At the Chicago Star, the communist newspaper for which he wrote and was the founding editor-in-chief (1946-48), Davis regularly shared the op-ed page with Senator Claude “Red” Pepper, who at that exact time was writing the bill to nationalize healthcare in the United States—which Davis himself advocated in his columns. By the way, Pepper’s chief of staff, who wrote that bill, was Charles Kramer, who we now know was working for the KGB under the codename “mole.”
Another Davis comrade at the Star was William Patterson, who actually mentored Frank Marshall Davis and was probably more important than any other figure in bringing Davis into the Party.
FP: William Patterson was a hardcore communist.
Kengor: Yes, and among his legacies is the Kremlin’s “People’s Friendship University,” which he helped plan in the 1960s. People’s Friendship University became better known as the “Patrice Lumumba Friendship University,” a Kremlin grooming school for third-world revolutionaries.
This university, the third largest in the USSR, schooled some of the world’s leading terrorists. Distinguished alumni include Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and Palestinian leader Mahmoud Abbas (You know, Obama’s Palestinian Authority’s “PEACE PARTNER?”
Among this band of rogues, Mohamed Boudia was a top figure in the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP), one of the cores branches of the PLO. He was in charge of PFLP terrorist operations in Europe, placed there by the KGB, where he worked with Soviet-backed terror cells in East Berlin.
There he also worked with the Black September Organization. Among Boudia’s most dastardly acts—WHICH INVOLVED MAHMOUD ABBAS—was the brutal murder of Jewish Olympians in the 1972 Munich massacre.
(Abbas--like his predecessor Yasser Arafat—a “Terrorists? Who would have thunk it?)
FP: So, Patterson helped mentor Frank Marshall Davis, who, in turn, mentored Obama?
Kengor: Correct.
FP: In your book, you say that Davis’s first major Party job was editing and writing columns for the Chicago Star in the late 1940s. You found a lot of similarity in what Davis was writing and what Obama says today.
Kengor: Yes. Davis constantly bashed Wall Street, big oil, profits, GOP tax cuts, the wealthy and “millionaires.” He called for taxpayer funding of “universal healthcare” and “public works projects.” He targeted General Motors. He championed Russian foreign policy, especially at the expense of countries like Poland. I could go on and on. The similarities are chilling.
FP: Was there a particular Davis column that really struck you?
Kengor: Yes, and I use it to open the book. In a November 1946 column, Davis wrote: “I’m tired of being beaned with those double meaning words like ‘sacred institutions’ and ‘the American way of life’ which our flag-waving fascists and lukewarm liberals hurl at us day and night.”
This struck me because it’s so similar to Obama’s quoting of Davis in Dreams from My Father. There, Obama quoted Davis saying: “They’ll train you so good, you’ll start believing what they tell you about equal opportunity and the American way and all that sh-t.”
FP: Okay, when did Obama meet Davis?
Kengor: According to an eyewitness, they were first introduced in 1970. It was Obama’s grandfather, Stanley Dunham, who made the introduction. Dunham, himself a leftist, saw in Davis a potential role model and black father figure that Obama was lacking. Davis knew and influenced Obama throughout Obama’s adolescence in the 1970s, right up until he went to college. In fact, those disparaging words about the American way were Davis’s parting words to Obama before Obama headed off to Occidental College.
FP: You interview someone who knew Obama at Occidental and says that Obama was an actual communist at Occidental.
Kengor: That’s right. The person is Dr. John Drew, who I’ve interviewed at length and remain in regular contact with today. He’s totally credible, no axe to grind, no story to sell. Drew contacted me because he knew I was researching Davis. Drew sees himself as the “missing link” between Obama’s time with Frank Marshall Davis and with later radicals like Bill Ayers and the Rev. Jeremiah Wright.
Drew himself was a Marxist at the time, and Obama was introduced to him as a fellow Marxist—as “one of us.” Drew told me about Obama’s belief in what Drew described as the “Frank Marshall Davis fantasy of revolution.” Drew, who was a more realistic, chastened Marxist, WAS STUNNED AT OBAMA’S UNWAVERING BELIEF IN THE IMMINENCE OF A MARXIST REVOLUTION IN THE UNITED STATES. (Emphasis Added)
FP: Was Davis a national-security threat? Kengor: The federal government thought so. In the book, I present documents from Davis’s 600-page FBI file in which the FBI repeatedly re-certifies Davis on the Security Index. That’s a very serious thing. It means that, in the event of a war breaking out between the US and USSR, Obama’s mentor could have been placed under immediate arrest.
Needless to say, that’s quite unprecedented for a presidential mentor. With a mentor like that, Barack Obama should have trouble getting a security clearance for a standard, entry-level government job. Instead, Americans elected him right into the Oval Office.
FP: Incredible, that is really something. Paul Kengor, how would you crystallize the main message/thesis of your book? Kengor: Mentors matter. Any study of any president starts with mentors. We all know that. And yet, why have we ignored this mentor to this particular president? Well, the answer is clear from my book:
"Because no president in all of American history
has ever had a mentor as radical as Frank Marshall Davis.
No president—ever—has had a mentor who was a literal
card-carrying member of the Communist Party."
Lets see: A “Documented” DIRECT “LINK” between the 2 Greatest “Evils” Mankind has ever known (the “Practitioners of Communism” and Evil Empire and the “Practitioners of the Religion of Pieces” who BOTH HATE FREEDOM, Christianity/Judaism and had/have as their GOAL, Global Hegemony and the Destruction of the United States…… …..AND BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA being “LINKED” (hell, an AFINITY and “EMBRACE”) of BOTH?
Say it ain’t so?
Ah, but nuttin’ to see here; just move along all ye Patriots who love their country …
(AND ESPECIALLY ALL YOU VETS WHO SERVED IN HARMS WAY AND “PUT IT ALL ON THE LINE FOR YOUR COUNTRY”)….
and do not want to see someone as Dangerous and a THREAT to our Republic reelected.
Just move along and listen to the delusional Hate Mitt and Mormon Paul-Bots cuz they KNOW Mitt is more dangerous, eeevil and a threat than is B. Hussein Obama.
Of course they will: ANY moment now, they will provide us all with PROOF that Mitt is as dangerous and a threat to our Security and Survival as is Dear Leader…..
Ah, waiting………!!!
Some of you post a picture of Romney signing legislation as an “aha, we got you” moment. That’s idiotic. I admit that I’m not a computer nerd so I don’t know how to post pictures. However, I looked and found several pictures of Ronald Reagan, (A hero of mine whom I believe saved the country from USSR and terrible economic times) with groups of people like Charles Rangel, Robert (KKK) Byrd, and other gleeful democrats as he signs a law into order. Use your brain people. Stop the bleeding first and then you can work on a fix. ABO
F The Convention and The Rainbow RINO it rode in on.
I believe you’re referring to a picture of Romney signing Romneycare, which forces people to buy insurance whether they like it or not. As the architect of Romneycare, Romney is now known as the Godfather of Obamacare.
"The [my] only connection [to the Republican Party]is I'm registered as a Republican"--Mitt RRRRRomney
This scheme means that Romney is as conservative as Walter Mondale.
What is it with you Willardbot apologists that you feel the need to rip down Reagan in order to excuse your boy ?
Electing Willard to cure the Socialist problem in this country is like using an axe to chop off the head of a teenage kid who wants to treat his acne.
Yeah. I figure that’s about right. The scary part is, for a Democrat these days, Mondale would be “too conservative.”
I come upon an accident on the freeway. The driver lies in a puddle of blood with minutes to live. There are two “good Samaritans” who have stopped to help. One says, “The answer is to let the person continue to bleed until real help arrives.” The other person says, “I can help by putting pressure on the wound until the real help arrives.”
You may disagree with Romney—that’s your prerogative. Yet, to surrender your vote to some no-name candidate is the epitome of stupidity.
Vote for Romney and put conservatives in the congress that will hold his feet to the fire. That’s our only option in 2012.
I am a conservative. I supported Bachman, Palin, Newt, Santorum. Were any of these your choices? If so, how do you justify all these candidates supporting Romney (Yes, even Palin—I have a quote if you like). I guess they are just ignorant about the future of our country. (sarcasm).
mitt may improve the economy but if you think that mitt romney will undo the damage to this republic that is going to destroy her... you are insane. If Bush couldn't do it... and he didn't because his horrible second term actually paved the way for obama to win... then mitt certainly can't. Bush did protect us from the muzzies... he did rebuild the Military to a degree... he did put into place some good economic moves that made the economy grow... but it is post Bush by 3.5 years and the republic is more damaged today than it was 4 years ago.
mitt will do nothing to change the dynamic... it is not within him or his ideology. The fact that you and others refuse to acknowledge these horrible truths, just reinforce the opinion that nothing will be done to radically change the evil that is killing our dream. The first step in solving a problem is admitting that there is a problem. Houston... we have a problem.

You haven’t been here very long, that much is obvious. Just so you know, I’ve known Willard for 18 years going back to his 1994 Senate race. The man is a world class fraud and a con-artist. A trojan horse Socialist Democrat infiltrator of the GOP. One who was raised a leftist by his left-wing parents, who were also interlopers who despised the right. I’ve been here virtually every day for more than a half-decade raising the warning flag SPECIFICALLY about this individual. I wouldn’t be doing so if I did not fervently believe he is the absolute antithesis of everything Conservatism stands for. To support such a fraud is repugnant to my very core. If you’d been here when he was vetted 4 years ago and found to be thoroughly unacceptable, you’d know that by now.
As for whom I supported for President in the primary, as with 2008, I found virtually all to be lacking and the primary was a total farce and a fix by the party establishment big government left from the get-go. They are as disconnected from and disdainful of the base Conservatives as we are from the Democrats. I see literally no difference except the letter of the alphabet.
