It appears that the Rats (under the guidance of Daschle, Terry, and Bubba are going to try their best to bring what they call "Domestic Issues" into the spotlight before the elections. Should they attempt this tactic, this bit of information about who these Democrats really are should be the perfect ambush for them. Every Republican who is seeking office should become familiar with the DSA and have some extremely tough talking points to use on this issue.

I've got to go back in there to find it - as soon as my stomach can stand it. The last list I saw was outdated - but I'll try to find the new info.

Bump.

Has Rush Limb. done anything on this one yet? I would think if anybody could get the word out- it would be him. I know somebody on this forum is tight with Rush- or at least has his ear sometimes...

Following up on my own post.

This page gives a list of 58 members of the 'Congressional Progressive Caucus' (soon to be 57; Cynthia McKinney's in there), who the DSA claims is working with them; but there's no mention of any members of CPC being also members of DSA.

Let's be careful about what we're claiming.

All right. This link here is straight from the Democratic Socialists of America's home page. Sure, it doesn't say specifically that these guys are red banner waving members of the Socialist Party, but why does this socialist website so openly sponsor the Progressive Caucus?

http://www.dsausa.org/pc/pc.members.html

Also, this link is to the "Progressive Agenda". (keep in mind, this is the dem socialists of America's web site). Sure sounds like socialism to me. You ask any lefty and they'll tell you that "progressive" is the code word nowadays for "socialist". It's just that simple. They change their name and suddenly they're invisible. But they're socialists, make no mistake about it.

Oh, I have no doubts, looking at the list. But it's foolish to make a claim that X is a member of Y if both X and Y can shoot you down by simply denying it. I suspect these critters are way too careful to call themselves socialists (except for Bernie Sanders, and they'll elect anything in Vermont as long as it's queer, er, I mean odd. ) 'Progressive' doesn't have the same connotations, even though it means the same thing.

Another thing these critters are way too clever to call themselves is Progressives. If you look on the Congressional Websites of these 58, only a small handful even note that they're members of the Progressive Caucus. Some list every Caucus they've ever been a member of yet somehow fail to mention Progressive Caucus Membership. A few are pretty brazen about it. Jesse Jackson Jr lists membership and also has a link to Dem Soc of America on his website.

Sen Paul Wellstone is also a member of the Caucus or affiliated with them somehow or another.

I am posting this again, it was posted earlier by another freeper:

The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism, but under the name of liberalism they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program until one day America will be a socialist nation without ever knowing how it happened----

Norman Thomas, six-time Socialist Party presidential candidate and one of the founders of the ACLU

Here is a list of the Democrats who belong to the Democratic Socialist of America...I would imagine there are some who are sympathetic members and don't want their names known like Hillary Clinton. Publish this list everywhere and e-mail it to everyone; talk about terrorist among us these people are so anti-American it is frightening. Pastor and a few others are no longer among the elected or will not be. http://b.webring.com/hub?sid=&ring=unionring&id=&list
http://www.geocities.com/CapitolHill/5202/unionring.html

http://www.dsausa.org/pc/pc.members.html

Democratic Socialists of America share a vision of a humane international social order based on equitable distribution of resources, meaningful work, gender and racial equality, a healthy environment, sustainable growth, and non-oppressive relationships.

Sounds like the United Nations as well.....Socialist/Marxists all!

These people must be investigated now, I wonder how many have links to the al Queda or other terrorist organizations. Liberalism is nothing less than Socialism; don't call them Liberals because they aren't and the DNC is rife with these people and crooks...there is no Democratic Party any more.

I started digging around at the DLC - and hit the jackpot. I got to the DLC by clicking on a link within the SOCIALISTS INTERNATIONAL site under their North American chapters link. Get this: the DLC (under the moniker of Social Democrats) and the DSA are the only two listed organizations within the International Socialist. They have absolutely NO DENIABILITY. The DLC has what they call their "New Democrat" members, and the site lists ALL of them from the local level on up. (New Democrat = Social Democrat) Please go to this link to see this list: http://www.ndol.org/new_dem_dir_action.cfm?viewAll=1

These snakes in disguise are always totally predictable.

You know how the Christians have the WWJD(What Would Jesus Do) saying as a guideline?

The socialist scumbags are unfailing in their WWkmD(What Would karl marx Do). Americans should definitely read the communist manifesto to see the implementation of totalatarian controls(10 planks). The hive mentality will not lead to utopia, paradise or heaven on earth. - just the opposite.

In my lifetime I've seen socialism ravage country after country generaly leading to moral and/or financial bankruptcy. They've been working on this country(USA) for close to 100 years now.

Because the Congressional Progressive Caucus comprises the crypto-Marxists of Congress. Check out the names on the list! The good news: Komissars Hilliard and McKinney are on the way out, and Wellstone may be as well.

The socialists in Congress are larger in scope than the mere 57 capital "S" "Socialists" here.
