One of the signature songs of the 1960s political radicalism was Bob Dylan's "The Times They Are a'Changin'," which JibJab video productions has used as a theme for an online video spoof of the Obama-Hillary-McCain campaign contest over who was the biggest "change" candidate. Another iconic '60s-era Dylan ballad, "Subterranean Homesick Blues," contained the line, "You don't need to be a weatherman to know which way the wind blows." Bill Ayers, his wife Bernadine Dohrn, and other members of the radical SDS (Students for a Democratic Society) adopted Weatherman, Weathermen, and Weather Underground as their nom de guerre monikers from...

Liberals have become so crass, so ignorant of history, and so idealogically blinded that we can now call them "National Socialists" without them realizing that we just painted them as NAZIs. We called Obama a socialist because he definitely is one. We've been countered with, "What's wrong with socialism?" Now we can simply call them National Socialists. They don't even KNOW we've just called them NAZIs. Give it a try and see how it plays. Report back on this thread for others to learn. What's wrong with socialism?

Despite documentary evidence to the contrary Barack Obama's Fight the Smears website continues to deny that Barack Obama was a member of the ACORN/Democratic Socialists of America initiated New Party. Let's delve into the matter to see what more information we might find. If you go to the website of Barack Obama's old law firm Miner,Barhill&Galland you will find this short profile of Madison Wisconsin based partner Sarah Siskind. It seems that a few years ago Ms Suskind represented ACORN in a successful class action against sub-prime mortgage lender Household Finance Corporation. For the last ten years, the firm (principally...

From Obama's radio interview in 2001: "Obama was specifically quoted as saying it was a “tragedy” that “the Supreme court didn’t pursue redistribution of wealth” during the time of the civil rights movement."

Sometimes those of us who have been around awhile take too much for granted. I tend to assume, for instance, that most Americans understand socialism is an evil, immoral system of economics and government. But, then, occasionally, I'll get a letter from a young American who has been taught throughout his or her life that only the government can spread wealth fairly or that market economics is inherently corrupt. I got one of those this week. And I quickly realized why Barack Obama is on the verge of winning the presidency of the United States. So, I guess it's time...

Obama's Foundation Funded the Former "Communist Party" Leader   By Matt HadroCNSNews.com | Monday, October 27, 2008 A foundation chaired by Barack Obama that was designed to improve Chicago public schools gave hundreds of thousands of dollars to the Small Schools Workshop, an organization led by former Weatherman Bill Ayers and by Michael Klonsky, a former chairman of both Students for a Democratic Society and, according to The Washington Post and New York Times, a group called the “Communist Party (Marxist-Leninist).”  "Ayers and an old comrade from SDS, Mike Klonsky, run the Small Schools Workshop to mentor and provide guidance...

Developing. John McCain to release statement over 2001 radio interview first broke here on Freerepublic.....

Once again we have another story that has been picked up in a big way by the Blogosphere but is currently being ignored by the mainstream media. And this time the story is huge. If you've seen the Drudge Report today you will know exactly which story this is; the audio of a 2001 interview on Chicago public radio station WBEZ FM in which Barack Obama explicitly calls for the "redistribution of wealth." You won't find any information about this blockbuster story in the MSM just yet but as been very typical lately, you can be informed on this topic...

Barack Obama's statement to “Joe the Plumber” about redistributing wealth was not an off-the-cuff statement. Obama stood by it in a recent interview and has been reinforced by his own words in this 2001 audio of an interview he conducted with a Chicago Public Radio station, where he says that has been a tragedy that “redistribution of wealth” is not pursued by the Supreme Court. Not a problem, if your values are progressive or left of center, but makes anyone that has a healthy distrust of government doling out your hard earned money squirm in their seats. This is not...

A 7-year-old radio interview in which Barack Obama discussed the failure of the Supreme Court to rule on redistributing wealth in its Civil Rights rulings has given fresh ammunition to critics who say the Democratic presidential candidate has a socialist agenda. In the interview, conducted by Chicago Public Radio in 2001, while Obama was an Illinois state senator and a law professor at the University of Chicago, Obama said the civil rights movement was victorious in some regards, but failed to create a "redistributive change" in its appeals to the Supreme Court, led at the time by Chief Justice Earl...

Below is a video/audio recording of Barack Obama in a 2001 interview talking about a 'reparative' strategy for wealth redistribution. There is also a transcript of the audio available here, thanks to Power Line News. This interview is a remarkable insight into what Obama thinks about taking your hard-earned dollars and giving them to someone else (he obviously knows better than you who needs your money and how it should be spent). Notice how Obama thinks the constraints the Founders put on government through the Constitution are a "tragedy" and that he regrets that even radical Supreme Court makeups have...

BUT WAIT......it gets better. In a 2001 interview with a Chicago radio station, Obama says that it's a "tragedy" that the constitution wasn't radically reinterpreted to force redistribution of wealth to African Americans as a form of reparations. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iivL4c_3pck Change you can believe in? The lie is different at every level....

2008: BARACK OBAMA: COUNTDOWN TO COMMUNISM by Norman Liebmann PROJECTIONS The Obama Administration would promise a return to "the good ol' days." (If the 'thirties ever came back we'll be all set. A reasonable conclusion to be drawn is that Obama is not a messiah, heÂ’s a meshuggeh.) Since Acorn performed its Get Out the Vote Chicanery, it became apparent there are almost as many illegal voters registered in Ohio as there are Nazis registered in Argentina. It's time to get the Acorns to climb back into their trees. Under an Obama Administration the Bureau of Census would keep track...

Democratic presidential nominee Barack Obama and his allies bristle at the notion he is a socialist. But columnist Lewis Diuguid of the Kansas City Star took the left's angry objections to another level this week when he claimed Sen. John McCain and Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin are racists for tarring Sen. Obama with the socialist brush. Mr. Diuguid claimed "socialist" was former FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover's code word for black civil-rights leaders, specifically the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr., NAACP co-founder W.E.B. Du Bois, and political activists Paul Robeson and A. Philip Randolph. "Shame on McCain and Palin for...

Since New Zeal first publicised the connection, the late communist poet Frank Marshall Davis's relationship to Barack Obama has been the subject of thousands of articles, blog posts and talk back calls. Obama's apologists first attempted to minimise the Obama/Davis relationship. As evidence mounted however, it became apparent that Davis was indeed a mentor to Obama. The relationship lasted from 1970 when Obama was ten until he left Hawaii for college on the mainland at age 18. Next the Obamaphiles tried to minimise Davis's communism, portraying him as a benevolent civil rights activist and therefore, if anything, a positive influence...
