The Hexagon Of Progress: Barack Obama – Working Families Party – Democratic Socialists Of America – New Party – ACORN – SEIU
by Andrew Marcus
When a candidate of the Democratic or Republican parties is successfully elected President of the United States, it is widely accepted that by virtue of being the highest elected office holder in the party, they are the “leader” of their respective party.
Why would it be any different when it comes to President Obama’s leadership role in his other political party, the Working Families Party?
If the President and his other party are to be held to the same standard as the Republicans, Greens, and Democrats, etc.. then by all rights he should be considered the leading force or figure within the Working Families Party.
In reality, no matter how one chooses to define the President’s relationship to his other party, the relationship itself demands a close examination of its platform, background, and history, all of which the President would appear to have endorsed by accepting their nomination.
As to their platform, that topic will be covered in greater detail in future posts. This entry is going to focus on the historical roots and background of the Working Families Party.
Very briefly, though, on the platform – you can read it here.
One pervasive theme is an attitude of class warfare. For a specific example, see (1:20) in this video produced by the Working Families Party, where the woman on camera exclaims “Tax The Rich And Give It Back To The Poor”.
Another example can be found here [emphasis in original]:
Over the last 25 years, the wealthiest 1% of New Yorkers have seen their taxes cut in half. When the rich don’t pay their fair share, everyone else has to pick up the tab – often in the form of higher property taxes.
There are other examples of their class warfare tactics, like this video of WFP members busing around to AIG homes in CT. These are the very same pitchfork brigade the president said he wanted to be angry. Little did anyone know he was simply representing his other party in those remarks.
What motivates such a divisive movement? For that, we need to examine their founding, history, and affiliations of the Working Families Party.
To help illustrate some of the relationships that we will be discussing, I have created what I call the Hexagon of Progress [HOP] pictured above. (Cue scary Star Wars, or CNN Gulf War I theme music)
You will notice that the Democratic Socialists of America is featured at the top of the HOP. An important point needs to be made here. President Barack Obama and the Working Families Party are Democratic Socialists.
This is not meant as a judgment. It is simply a fact which the politicians involved with the Working Families Party group should be made to own.
As I have written previously, this is not some kind of neo “Red Hunt”. Not only is that not the point, there is nothing much to hunt. These relationships are out in the open. The point is that the American people have a right to know about the background of a political party to which the President of the United States belongs, and the so-called mainstream media have completely failed the nation in this simple task.
Caution: This is a lengthy post, but, it’s easy to follow and there’s a delicious party favor at very end.
Let’s simply review the facts:
The following clipping can be found in the Summer 2000 publicaiton of the DSA publication Dem Left.
Back in 2005, the Working Families Party website used to reveal a little bit more about its organizational ties to the DSA than it does now.
The image below is taken from the Working Families Party December 2005 affiliates list.
The image below was taken from the WFP site today. At some point in 2006, the Working Families Party disappeared the Democratic Socialists of America from their website.
There is no indication that DSA ever stopped supporting the WFP, but, given the other two affiliates highlighted in the image above, it could hardly matter.
From the website of the Long Island Progressive Coalition:
The LIPC was born at the initiation of the Democratic Socialist Organizing Committee (since become Democratic Socialists of America) and the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers, seeking to realize DSOC Chair Michael Harrington’s vision of being “the left-wing of the possible.”
The other organization circled above, Citizen Action, was founded by Heather Booth. The DSA was so proud of her accomplishments in promulgating the Alinsky school of organizing, they honored her with their highest honor, the Eugene V. Debs Award for 1987.
Heather Booth
You have dedicated yourself to enabling people to develop a sense of their own power and alter the relations of power in order to build a more just and humane society.
Through the Midwest Academy, you have inspired and trained thousands of new activists in the Citizen Action movement, the peace movement, and the women’s movement.
You have reached across the generations to connect with and maintain the best traditions of the old radical movement while reaching out to upcoming student activists with a new vision and strategy for a better future.
By work and by deed your energy and commitment inspire us all.
For this, the Norman Thomas – Eugene V. Debs Award is hereby presented to you on this 9th day of May, 1987.
Heather Booth was also the training director for the Democratic National Committee during the Clinton administration. She co-founded the Midwest Academy as a project of Citizen Action. Reportedly SEIU’s Andy Stern is a graduate of the Academy, and Barack Obama trained ACORN organizers there.
The Academy’s other co-founder is Heather’s husband, Paul Booth. Paul was a founder of the radical 1960’s protest group, Student’s for a Democratic Society, (SDS), which spawned the Weather Underground domestic terrorist group led by Bill Ayres.
This is not the first time the media has failed to report on the Democratic Socialist background of a party to which Barack Obama has pledged himself.
Some readers might already be aware that when President Obama ran for the Illinois State Senate back in 1996, he ran as a member of the New Party.
The New Party was ACORN’s party in the 1990s, exactly like the Working Families Party is ACORN’s party. The extent of their connection is evidenced by two letters pulled from the Internet Archive, written about 1 year apart, both authored by the same person.
First, a 1998 letter from New Party Executive Director, Dan Cantor:
SPECIAL APPEAL FROM THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR
To: Members and Friends
From: Dan Cantor, Executive Director, New Party
RE: WE REALLY NEED YOUR HELP, AND I DON’T MEAN MONEY
Here’s the deal.
The New Party is deep into an effort to establish a “qualified” new political party in New York State. It’s called the “Working Families Party,” and we’re one of the driving forces behind it .
The state law requirement for a new party is 50,000 votes on our own ballot line in the November election.
It’s safe to say that this is the most serious effort to build a progressive ballot-line party in New York since the demise of the American Labor Party in the 1950s. It is backed by the United Auto Workers, Communications Workers of America, Citizen Action, ACORN, and dozens of other local unions and community groups. Prominent individual supporters include David Dinkins, Ruth Messinger, Sal Albanese, and Nydia Velazquez.
This is going to take some real and sustained work.. We’ve got our usual small amount of money, and need to spend it on organizers, targeted mail pieces, and African-American radio buys.
But we also think there’s a very cheap, very powerful way to reach a large number of good people in New York — namely, e-mail. THERE HAVE GOT TO BE A LOT OF PEOPLE WHO WOULD BE VERY HAPPY TO VOTE ON THE WORKING FAMILIES PARTY LINE, IF THEY HEAR ABOUT IT.
Here’s where you come in – whether or not you live in New York.
We’d like you to send us the e-mail addresses of ANYONE and EVERYONE you know who lives in New York State who considers themselves a Democrat, a progressive, a leftist, an independent or even a bored and disgusted non-voter. We will send them a polite, totally non-obnoxious message describing the Working Families Party and its values. And we’ll ask them to make their vote REALLY count this November by casting it for our Gubernatorial candidate — a fusion candidacy with the Democrat, so not a spoiler run — in November. Send two names or two hundred, it doesn’t matter.
Our message to your friends will be straightforward. Vote for Vallone and McCall (the Democrats), but vote for them on the Working Families Party line so that we can send the Democrats (and the Republicans) a message.
It will NOT be a PERMANENT list, and it will NOT be cluttered up with lots of messages. You have my word on this.
This will take you a few minutes, but only that. PLEASE — look through your e-mail list or address books right now, and PLEASE send us the e-mail addresses of your favorite New Yorkers. If that’s too much hassle, send us your entire e-mail list and we’ll make it “For New Yorkers Only” in the subject line.
Please send your lists to Adam Glickman or call us at 800-200-1294.
+++ If you actually live in New York, you can also help a bit more by joining the WFP “COMMITTEE OF 1000″ – a core group of citizen activists who will contact 5-20 other voters and urge them to vote on the Working Families Party line on November 3.
But no matter where you live, we KNOW that you probably know someone who lives in New York — friends, relatives, colleagues, admirers, you name it — who you think might support a political party that stands for living wage jobs, universal access to health care, better public schools, and real campaign finance reform.
With your help, we can make history this fall!
Second, just over a year later, this communication from Working Families Party Executive Director, Dan Cantor:
January 3, 2000
To: WFP Members, Sustainers and Supporters
Fr: Dan Cantor, Executive DirectorThe Working Families Party is now officially a year old. And like a toddler taking those first wobbly but wonderful steps, the party’s first year has been shaky and exhilarating and full of promise.
The WFP has three basic activities. We build chapters. We run election campaigns. We promote our issues. All of these build and depend on each other, of course, so separating them out is a little artificial. But I thought it would be helpful to offer just a few words on each, as it will give you a pretty good sense of the remarkable growth accomplished by the party over the last year.
ELECTIONS…
On November 2nd, 226 candidates ran on the WF line in our first state-wide election since achieving official ballot status in 1998. Slightly MORE than half won their races. County legislators, town supervisors, city councilmembers, sheriffs, county executives, town clerks, you name it.
There were some terrific outcomes, a few tough defeats, but most important the general sense among everyone – and by everyone I mean our leadership, membership, the press, friendly Democrats, not-so-friendly Democrats, downright hostile Republicans, intellectual allies and others -is that we took another step on the road to becoming a legitimate and creative player in state politics.
Perhaps the most amazing outcome in November was in Nassau County on Long Island. 100 years of uninterrupted Republican rule came to an end as the candidates backed by the local Democratic and Working Families Parties rode of tidal wave of voter discontent. It would be misleading to say that either the Democrats or the WFP was primarily responsible. This was an anti-Republican vote, pure and simple. But it opens the door and the WFP activists in Nassau are determined to take advantage of it.
If you want a full set of returns on a race-by-race basis, just say the word. On the assumption that you have better ways to spend your time than poring over election returns, here’s the most important (and heartening) data on the electoral front.
In 1998, the party “qualified” by getting just over 50,000 votes. Of that vote, we got 60% in New York City, 9% in Erie County, 5.5% in Nassau, 4% in Suffolk and Westchester, and 1-2% of our total vote in each of Albany, Monroe, Onondaga, Rockland and Tompkins counties.
In 1999, we got 53,000 votes (in a year when many fewer votes were cast). But the geography of our support changed dramatically. Because there was almost nothing on the ballot in New York City, overall turnout was very light. The WFP got just 14% of its total (7000 votes) in NYC. The remaining 86% of WFP votes – 46,000 levers pulled – were pulled outside NYC.
In other words, we not only got more votes this year than in 1998, we also got them from new people. That bodes very well for the races in 2000.

Man, that Dan Cantor gets around! In a previous era, Dan organized labor for the Jesse Jackson presidential campaign.
By the way, that WFP address is the same as SEIU and ACORN.
And just as a total aside, one of the instrumental early supporters of the New Party was DSA co-chair Frances Cloward Piven, co-author of the infamous Cloward-Piven Strategy. What a co-inkydinky.
Democratic Socialists.
P.S. You’ll notice that in the center of the Hexagon of Progress™ is the Tides Foundation. We’ll poke that hornet’s nest in another post, but suffice to say, they fund many of the components of the HOP.
And now that promised party favor: A couple of days ago we posted two robo-calls from the Working Families Party archive, of John Edwards espousing their shared Progressive values. Today we bring another installment from the way back archive.
It turns out the Working Families Party and Eliot Spitzer have been in love for a very long time. You see, they also share the same Working Families Progressive values.

Hmmmm…it looks like the Hexagram is in position to replace the Pentagram for Satanic beliefs.
Don't forget the Communist Party USA. They endorsed and campaigned for Obama. In return he has fulfilled nearly all of their 2008 election platform in less than a year. See http://conservativedigest.wordpress.com/2009/10/1...
Haha! You conspiracy crackheads! Face it… the economy is in the best shape it has been since Clinton was in office, and we are poised to significantly increase the standard of living for the majority of people living in this country… stop hatin' on all of that just because we've got a black president! Why do you all have to be such racists!!!
Great post, Andrew!
And we all know the Tides foundation is funded by Soros and other socialists.
Tides also funds the Gamaliel Foundation – a radical group that is infesting many Churches.
People need to wake up!

Can't argue the issues the article brings up, so play the race card. Typical.
Oh what a tangled web we weave, when first we pracitce to deceive………….
This is rich. Obama's college thesis – "The so-called founders did not allow economic freedon.". He only allowed the reporter to read the first 10 pages.

How much more obviuos can it be, the only reason Obama got elected is because he's black. He's being used as the left's nig&&r to push their socialist agenda.
Democratic Socialists of America = The New Nazis.
Maybe it is his destiny to unintentionally destroy the new, Socialist Democrat party so that it can be reborn into a real "Democratic Party," which is for ALL of the people instead of a bunch of extreme, insane, America-hating "special interest groups."

Just as I suspected, the only reason you elected Obama is because he's black, so you can use the race card to push a socialist – redistribution, politically correct agenda. You're just using him as your nig^^r. How stupid do you think people are??? How does it feel to be slave owner?
Debauch The American Currency Now!
October 17, 2009
If Obama were a Marxist, what would he believe?
By Kelly O'Connell
Cloward-Piven Scheme for Planned Catastrophe: Ominously, in 1966, Columbia University scholars Richard Cloward and Frances Piven published a theory outlining methods to destroy a healthy capitalist economy and force communist revolution. This eliminates capitalism by making impossible state budgetary demands, thereby bringing government insolvency.
Critics claim Obama's budget is an example of the Cloward-Pivin model of planned economic destruction of a functioning capitalist economy via sabotage. Outlays are so gigantic, and so dreadfully misspent, that our financial infrastructure will soon collapse. A trillion dollar tax increase and spending rising by $10 trillion dollars over the next decade is probable. If so, government default will occur, only offset by mass currency printing, which will then bankrupt the general populace. The middle class will fall. Chronic inflation will result, causing America to lose its sterling credit rating. Global financial players must dump the dollar as it swan-dives. Then, hyperinflation will accelerate, and the era of superpower America will end.
Would the above plan be Marxist? Consider the following statement regarding USSR dictator Vladimir Lenin's opinion on the topic, from famed economist John Maynard Keynes' book "The Economic Consequences of the Peace":
"Lenin is said to have declared that the best way to destroy the Capitalist System was to debauch the currency. By a continuing process of inflation, governments can confiscate, secretly and unobserved, an important part of the wealth of their citizens. There is no subtler, no surer means of overturning the existing basis of society than to debauch the currency. The process engages all the hidden forces of economic law on the side of destruction, and does it in a manner which not one man in a million is able to diagnose."

Yep, and remember, terds run downhill.
USArmyMom – I appreciate your zeal, but must confess I don't care for your use of the "n" word by anybody b or w. All it does is inflame and honestly has no place in blog comments here at BG. I'm sure you can get across the same sort of anger by using different words. Thanks. And no I'm not trying to be politically correct or the thought police. It's simply a word that has been removed from our language b/c the intent behind using it was to demeen or make one less than b/c of the color of their skin. I'd like to think we as a nation have moved beyond this.
ROFLMAO….. hey stupid, why don't cha go and do something productive, maybe get a little oxygen to your brain cell. It appears to be gasping and winking out………
Crack the Hexagon and expose the Corruption.
Let me add, that I'd very much like to forward this post w/comments to several fence sitters who perceive R's and I's opinion or concerns of 0's true policy agenda as unsettling or fantasy. I'm not at all comfortable forwarding such a link b/c the moment these readers scan through the comments and read your sentiments, they will dismiss BG as a biased news generator which will only make my task harder to get these good people to listen to me the next time.
That's not a hexagon. Look at it again. That's the new People's Cube. LOL!
Everyday it becomes clearer and clearer what a Community Organizer is, it should have been investigated before the election. I hope we can pull ourselves out of it all in 2010-2012.
And he better get it now before it is missing from the list of "approved treatments" under Obamacare.
I don't dance to anyone else's politically correct tune. And my money, (my son's life), is where my "yet free" mouth is. You obviously don't understand nor appreciate what freedom is, what my son and how many thousands upon thousands upon thousands of lives and heartbreak, have been given for!! You think again before you open your mouth again to me!
And if you think I'm crude and biased, wait till Mother Nature has her way with you!
Pay no attention he’s from the 57th state, the land of the worthless, and is gunning for an upgrade on his Sec. 8 housing voucher. They are very concerned as Brainless Biden has taught us, that they will have to get a three letter word, “jobs.” You keep clutching to your Barry blow up doll, you may have to get a job yet!
Who the HELL do you think you are??? That other people should listen to you?? What egotism! You and Obama are obviously out of the same mold!
A confirmation of what we knew! Thanks for the article.
anotherstupidredneck:
Please change your displayed name to anotherstupidred.
I have alsways said that the reason his "papers", transcripts and "thesis" have never been divulged is that it would CLEARLY SHOW HIS DISDAIN AND TOTAL SOCIALIST ATTITUDE towards the Constitution.
It would be his philosophical statement which in turn would disclose his political basis. And now we know !
Ma'am, I sincerely thank you for raising your sons to serve this great country. I will forever be in their debt.
However, this is not about your wonderful sons. This is about common decency. The words you choose to use have consequences especially when used on a public board like BG. Why? This is a community of posters and if a member of the community asks another member to be more thoughtful when using a particular word, I'd hope that member would show respect for the request. Not to defend and pummel. Trust me, I know you could kick my a$$ but that's not the point. cont'd below
Vulgarity is used on boards across the blogosphere and although I don't care for the language, I do respect that individuals right to use it. However, using such a demeaning and derogatory word twice to describe your position are not words I am at all comfortable with on a community board I visit and post at regularly. It only demeans you and the point you are making and honestly, I'd like to understand your point but turn you off the moment I read the "n" word. Your opinion and thoughts do matter to me and I'm asking politely to use other words that get your point across w/o being demeaning. Thanks.
If you will read the context in which I used the word, you will see that I was not using it as a way to put someone with black skin down, but rather using it to point out "how" the left "uses", "degrades" people with black skin themselves!! And if you think I'm racist, guess again, my son's God Father is a black man! A true prince of a man that I loved and respected to have him be my son's God Father!
And it's people like you the reason why the liberals are in power now. They can use their "political correctness" to push their agenda, and you, in your "politeness", fall for it. Give them an inch, they take a mile. Freedom is not half-measure, nor is it polite! And to prove my point, ask yourself, is God polite? The world is going to hell in a hand-basket and it couldn't happen to a "nicer" bunch of folks!
… I don't get it… whats wrong with socialism? Don't you all want health care?
How is it possible that there could be such a paper trail and yet NO ONE in the media (except Fox) exposes such corruption? Not one media outlet (except Fox) vetted this crook community organizer socialist at all before throwing in their support. Go ahead all of you 0bamao supporters – call me a racist. Yea, that's right, me not liking the zero in office has NOTHING to do with his policies, lack of ethics, lack of morals, or his gangster mentality of politics.
I do not have any reason in this whole wide world to accuse you of being a racist. I have not stated that in any form nor do I have a reason too. I've seen other comments made by you which is why I stated that I very much like to learn from you. When anyone, I don't care who they are, chooses to use a word that demeans the conversation or an individual or a class of individuals I have as much right as the poster posting the comment to voice my concern. There are so many ways to say the same thing w/o using the language you chose to use. And I simply wanted you to know that I took offense and USArmyMom, I like what you have to say. I've learned from you and welcome your passion. I'm asking you to help me to continue to read your comments. I get stuck on certain words and don't read beyond. That's all. I did not intend to offend you and if I did, my sincerest apologies.
heard on the radio – great idea….
This halloween take some of your candy you give out and take the candy out and re-wrap with a note inside…

Throughout his life, Fauxbama has been given a free pass. Those who knew him said he took or was given credit for others' work. A free ride. He slick-talked his way from one level to the next, never bothering to learn the job description at any level he reached. Three weeks into his presidency, he declared he was good at it. That said it all. He had no clue, but he's used to play-acting and getting away with it. Any actor out of central casting can do what he does…read a teleprompter and speak pretty, empty words like "hope" and "change" with nothing behind them. President Hopey-Changey, the community AGITATOR-in-chief (aka rabble rouser).
should say "who needed" – I can just see the look on the kids face….
I think Communists were one of Obama's strongest voting blocs. On my street there are 7 or 8 people who claim to be Communists (amazingly, a couple of them are in the Army). They all told me they voted for Obama. If this is any indication, Obama probably swept the Commie vote.
Get back to the 57th state, you moocher!
Don't raise the racism issue around here. It gets the natives all stirred up. There isn't a racist/bigoted one in the bunch. They have made that clear on numerous occasions.
You're either being sarcastic, or you are the stupidest person on the face of the earth; troll. My guess is that it's the latter.
If it's the former, your post is just dumb, which still makes you a moronic, childish, imbecile.
Obama, from birth, was trained, coached, and cossetted, preparing him to be the "first black president", so that he could turn the USA into a SOCIALIST/MARXIST 'UTOPIA'. He truly is a MANCHURIAN CANDIDATE, whose entire life was planned and orchestrated by others…………down to even who he would marry, what church he would hgo to, and what "jobs" he would hold.
I have always been the first one to laugh and sneer at tinfoil hatted crazy theories, but just think about what I have posted above; nothing else makes any sense.
That video makes me sick. What was he payin for sex? 2K per night? And we paid for it?
Enough with the damned PC crapola!
The other side never thinks twice, nor even cringes when they call us "RACIST" or "NAZI", or worse.
We should have been fighting back, with no holds barred, for the past 40 years. If we had, things would never have reached the stage we are mired in now.
Go back to DU, the HuffPo, MoveOn, and/or whatever flaming lefty site you usually reside on; troll.
EVERYONE needs to start calling him by his real name, Barry Soetoro. And by the way, why does his "certificate of live birth" say his name is BHO II ? Cause it was made years later? Was he not born Barry Soetoro? I think this guy is hiding his true identy because he has a GOOD reason to…. I hope Acorn can stick to him enough to bring him down. Acorn is a CANCER to the United States.
Marxists, like extreme Muslim fanatics, are patient. They have been working, for more than a century, to install their agenda in America/all over the world.
B.O. has surrounded himself with socialists and communists all his adult life. He has no regard for our Constitution. He does not want America to remain the greatest country in the world. He wants to bring the USA down to mediacrasy.
I pray we can get through the next 3 years without losing our beloved land to this idiot's ideas.
So take that, dr_cathy. Mom's not buying what you're selling. And her son will fight to the end to defend her right to use the N-word. Is this a great county or what?
"Tax the rich and give it back to the poor" – – WTF?
Did the rich get rich by taking it from the poor? How did they get money from poor people? I mean, poor people have no money, right? Or were the poor once rich, and they had their money taken from them? But if that were the case, wouldn't that be okay? Because they were rich – it would be okay to take money from them, right? But that would make them poor…so, uh, wait…
Socialist class warfare arguements have the ability to make your head explode.
ask one of the americanized cubans. also ck. out the BLACK BOOK OF COMMUNISM which almost destroyed the communist party in france. this is the factual consequence of falling for this snake oil sales pitch. our own govt. concluded from a study of communism that it is responsible for more deaths DURING PEACETIME than all the wars in history COMBINED. ask any korean or viet-nam vet who has actually seen it in all it's glory butchering it's own people. see also what the khmer rouge did in cambodia. socialism is a police state dictatorship. this country was established as a FREE society, only for those who wish to be a free people. socialism is incompatable with americanism. learn what the difference is.
Just a spoonful of dirt at a time. Patience is a virtue.

I'll assume your post is a joke because NO ONE could actually be so stupid as to believe what you posted. Well, OK, some liberals could be that stupid, but they can't read or write.
Thanks for taking the time to post. Bookmarked so I can pass on.
More like diumbing down and dumbing and further dumbing down the American populace, so that they can take over. They'll feed us the dirt, shovelfuls at a time, after ObamaCare gets passed .
Here's an article from a couple years ago in the Bristol Press that's posted at the WF site about cross endorsing mostly Democrat candidates and gaining power from endorsing candidates who can actually win elections. It states that ACORN is one of the co-founders of Working Families Party:
(from the article)…Asked about the party’s joint-founder, ACORN (The Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now), Dinkin said “while it’s fair to say that ACORN has a role in Working Families, allegations of voter fraud against ACORN are trumped up. At worst, a couple of people who worked for ACORN tried to cheat ACORN and not do their jobs. These people were identified and fired. I’m impressed with what a good operation they run.”(close quote)
—The Dinkin quote is from Joe Dinkin, then Communications director of WF.—

Bring it !!!
According to Corsi, he was born Barack Hussein Obama, Jr., he went by Barry Obama while in school in Hawaii. He later went by Barry Soetoro while in Indonesia with his mother and stepfater Soetoro. Were any of his names changes made legally, or just as a convenience as his mom moved through her husbands? They appear to be informal name changes. It would be interesting to see the "actual" birth certificate – not the "Certificate of Live Birth". I would like to see who is listed as the "father" : Barack Obama, Sr. or someone else or blank. Those 2nd two choices might be embarrassing to the "Annointed One"!

The only error in the graphic is that it should have Obama at the center. He is ground zero today of the Progressive effort to eliminate individual freedom in America, even if only symbolically.
Fake, satire, not true.
You mean when a few companies were cooking the books and declaring big profits rather than real losses? You mean when all sorts of manufacturing facilities were being shut down (to make way for products made in China) but could not be touched until the 5 year bigtime tax credits began running out in 2003? You mean when the only climate research being funded (the vast majority is by government) when it agreed with the Gorey agenda?
Oh that era when the U.S. was being sold down the river!
Nice article, Andrew! Keep it up……..we'll help you spread it around.
As a thirty year community organizer in the Alinsky tradition I say quite clearly – SO WHAT? Democratic Socialists of America is the American version of the Labor Party in England. And as to the fact that there are democratic socialists among rank and file Democrats – I say quite clearly – DUH! The Democratic Party has had a social democratic (democratic socialist) faction since the days of Franklin Roosevelt. I even read a book once by Hubert Humphrey where he spoke approvingly of the work and politics of the social democratic parties of europe. Democratic Socialists are in favor of a regulation of the worst and most abusive features of capitalism – for a strong labor movement – and for utilizing government for social justice ends – i.e. social security; publicly owned utilities etc. And the Gamaliel Foundation – you just don't have a clue! Look at what Gamaliel, the Industrial Areas Foundation, DART, and PICO Network organizations actually do. This is reform activity – favoring the rights of poor and racial minorities. We will continue to organize – continue to fight.
I wasn't aware that Sen. Boxer posted here.

How old are you?
Read history. It's fascinating stuff.
Which clearly proves the stupidity of the socialist argument.
It's only 'just and fair' if you're on the receiving end. To heck with the sucker who's on the 'giving' end.

dr_cathy said: "It's simply a word that has been removed from our language b/c the intent behind using it was to demeen or make one less than b/c of the color of their skin. I'd like to think we as a nation have moved beyond this. " Very curious indeed. Especially since I have heard certain people refer to each other in casual conversation many times with this word. So, please explain to us the double standard wherein the nation has moved on while it apparently hasn't, and specifically that members of one race only can commonly call each other the word that has been 'dropped' when it apparently hasn't. Are you actually saying that they speak a different language and / or are not part of this nation? Incredible!
