Patriotic Third Graders Sing "Home of the Brave"

The third graders of Tussing Elementary School in Virginia are on a roll. They are on a mission to create a wave of positive American music, and have just recorded a new song entitled "Home of the Brave".

I have posted two other videos from this patriotic class of third-graders earlier this year, "Thankyou, Soldiers" and "There's a Hero on the Way". Watch all three and be inspired.

We've Been Had

We've Been Had: How Obama and the Radicals Conned Middle Class America is the new book from James R. Keena. Keena is a popular and inspirational speaker at TEA party rallies, town hall meetings, and educational seminars - he also serves as a board member of the Tea Party organization, Rattle With Us. Dedicating his book to "TEA Party activists everywhere", Keena writes,

"More than two centuries ago, we fought a military revolution over the sacred principles of individual liberty and limited government. Siunce then, millions of brave men and women haev sacrificed their very lives to defend them. Sadly, these principles are now under assault by radicals in our own country. The TEA Party movement is nurturing a grass roots political uprising to retake America from the radicals in Washington."

Jim goes chapter by chapter through the enemies of the middle class, introduces readers to the real Barack Hussein Obama, introduces and gives the background to the host of Obama's allies and supportive organizations, before wrapping up with a call to action. Mark Hendrickson of American Thinker says of the book,

"I was not eager to read We've Been Had. That was simply because I had grown very weary of its subject matter, one Barack Obama. I am so glad that I overcame my initial resistance and read this excellent book... It is comprehensively researched, masterfully organized, fluently written, and pleasantly free of shrillness. I had feared a rant, but on the whole, the book is written in a comfortable, almost conversational tone... We've Been Had is an amazingly breezy read for an encyclopedic study (76 pages of endnotes in support of about 270 pages of text) of the President of the United States and the various influences that have shaped his character and values."

I can't recommend the book enough myself. I was privileged to be invited by James to write a foreward for the book. People will only become engaged when they understand the consequences, when they know full well what's at stake. The second American Revolutino will succeed or fail by similar means. If enough information can get into enough hands, quicly enough, America will have a fighting chance. Jim Keena's book is a valuable contribution to that cause.

Buy it. Read it.

Brecht Forum Speaker: "Pissed off at white people, the U.S., the U.S. Flag"

Listen to this immigrant speaker at an Oct. 19, 2010 Brecht Forum panel explaining why she is "Pissed off. Pissed at white people, pissed at the U.S., pissed at what the U.S. flag meant, and having to see it everywhere and anywhere."

Note that this is the same Brecht Forum which hosted Tariq Ali's Oct. 20, 2010 booklaunch at which Frances Fox Piven also spoke - just the day before.

The Brecht Forum holds programs and events for socialist/marxist/progressive enthusiasts. It is "a place for people who are working for social justice, equality and a new culture that puts human needs first."

Frances Fox Piven: Obama Has Done Good things "Under the Radar"

Frances Fox Piven is a prominent U.S. sociologist, writer and socialist activist and is an honorary chair of the Democratic Socialists of America.

Fox Piven was a DSAer since the organization's founding in 1982. By 1985 she was listed as a member of the Feminist Commission of the organization.

In 1994 she was listed amongst over 100 activists who were builders of Barack Obama's New Party. Piven is also listed as an endorser of Progressives for Obama.

But much earlier, at the Second Annual Socialist Scholars Conference , held September 9-11, 1966 at the Hotel Commodore, New York, the husband/wife team, Richard Cloward and Frances Fox Piven unveiled their strategy to bring about the agenda they so longed for. This strategy is now known as the Cloward-Piven Strategy. In a nutshell, the strategy is designed to crash the U.S. economy and bring on socialist revolution by deliberately overloading state welfare rolls to the point of bankruptcy. You can read an in-depth discussion of this anti-American strategy in my June 2011 post, here.

As I pointed out in September this year, Piven has advocated the use of violence as a political tool as late as November, 2004 when she spoke at the University of Wisconsin, stating: "Unless you have good reason for breaking the window [i.e. using violence], probably you shouldn't do that. Unless it's you know, a big part of your strategy."

On September 20, 2010, she spoke alongside Tariq Ali at the booklaunch for his new book entitled "The Obama Syndrome: Surrender at Home, War Abroad". Ali is a board member of Movement for a Democratic Society which has close ties with the newly revived Students for a Democratic Society. The organization seeks to create a more egalitarian society in both the political and economic spheres. The booklaunch was organized and hosted by the Brecht Forum.

A short excerpt from Piven's comments at the book launch is below.



Full video from the event is at the C-Span website, however copied below is a key excerpt of the transcript of Piven's comments at the event:

"Obama has done some good things as president. Most of us don't notice those things because he has done them under the radar. They don't get public attention. He's used executive orders for example, to fund the enforcement of workplace safety inspections by the Labor Department, or to fund environmental protection enforcement. His stimulus bill... you know, and the sort of cloud of emergency. The stimulus bill was in fact redistributive. It took, for example, the TANF program which was the program that sort of symbolized the elimination of welfare in the United States, and it gave 5 billion dollars to TANF on condition that the states spend money on TANF; let people get welfare, and of course it put money in food stamps and unemployment insurance as well. He has made appointments. Usually below the radar screen to the Federal bureaucracy, that the Bush Administration decimated. I mean they're a bunch of hacks, in the Justice Department, in the voting rights division, wherever you looked, they put in their cronies. And the Obama Administration, concerned as they are with merit education and so forth, they began to restaff Federal bureaucracy. That's good, compared to what was." (31:45 - 33:50 minutes)

A little later on she comments,

"The Obama Administration has done some good things compared to the administrations that we've had for a very long time." (35:50 - 36:10 minutes)

Obama has an ally in the form of the radical, violence-advocating Frances Fox Piven. She made it clear at the September 20 event that she believes Obama has done many good things, but that many of these things have been done "under the radar". Without skipping a beat, acknowledges that the stimulus bill was redistributive.

Most noteworthy however, is her ominous comment that the President "has made appointments; usually below the radar screen to the Federal bureaucracy". Piven takes heart at what she refers to as the Obama Administration's restaffing of Federal bureaucracy. Perhaps Piven is referring to Socialist heroes elected to the Federal bureaucracy such as former STORM leader Van Jones, Netroots Nation-linked Cass Sunstein, and former Congressional Progressive Caucus member, Hilda Solis.

No wonder she's happy.

Marxism in America Conference

On October 21 I attended and spoke at the Marxism in America conference which was put on by America's Survival. My topic was the current crisis and the perils which lie ahead for the U.S. and the Western world.

Cliff Kincaid spoke on "Why People Believe the Dangerous Lies of Marxism", explaining how Marxism’s embrace of “revolutionary Islam” threatens America’s survival.

Larry Grathwohl spoke on "Bringing Terrorists to Justice" in which he spoke of the need for Congress to restore the House Committee on Internal Security in order to facilitate the investigation of communist/terrorist networks and the solving of cold cases such as the 1970 Park Station bombing in San Francisco.

Professor Paul Kengor spoke about his new book, "Dupes"{, on communist manipulation of "progressives", and the need for the media and academia to move beyond anti-anti-communism and analyze the dangerous threats to America.

Professor Mary Grabar who has authored reports on the teaching methods of Bill Ayers, and on Communist Howard Zinn’s Marxist History Books, spoke on how we can combat Marxist brainwashing which takes place in schools.

Robert Knight spoke on the need for parents to get involved in their children’s education.

Also at the conference, excerpts from video interviews of former FBI agent Max Noel, member of the Weatherman Task Force, and Larry Grathwohl were shown. I have posted these videos here. Also, the FBI file on the Communist Party connections of Harry Hay, the founder of the gay rights movement was discussed as it had just recently been made available to the public.

Obamageddon or Nobamageddon:The Choice Before America

Calling all American heroes...

Dr. David Janda explains Rationing in Health Care Bill

In the Oct. 13, 2010 video which is now going viral, Dr. David Janda quickly and succinctly explains in language all those on the left and right can understand, exactly what is wrong with the Stimulus Bill and the Healthcare Bill. It's only 6 minutes - watch it, get up to speed with the facts of the issue, and then tell your friends in time for voting on Nov 2.

David says, "We're going to lose 46% of physicians, including me. I cannot walk into a room Jan. 1st 2013 and lie to the very people I've been helping for the last 30 years. I won't do it."

Climate Fools Day

The Carbon Sense Coalition today called on Australians and Americans to join the world in celebrating Climate Fools Day on October 27th.

The Chairman of “Carbon Sense”, Mr Viv Forbes, said that Climate Fools Day was named by protestors outside the British House of Commons on 27th October 2008 when the house was debating the Climate Bill.

Forbes explained:

“As the first October snow in 70 years blanketed the House (and a big swathe of Europe), MP’s droned on about the need to fight global warming.

“For six hours MP’s reassured one another about the desperate need to be the first government in the world to saddle its unfortunate people with a burden estimated at £15 billion a year. As snow continued to blanket Westminster, only two MP’s questioned the huge cost and dubious benefits from the energy taxes and green energy rorts they were imposing.

“Christopher Booker of the Daily Telegraph noted gloomily:
“If the Bill's intent is taken seriously, the cost of cutting our CO2 emissions by 80 per cent would cripple our economy, closing down much of what remains of our industry and rendering most motorised transport impossible.”

“Nigel Lawson said in the House of Lords at the time:
“The Bill will go down in history, and future generations will see it, as the most absurd Bill that this House and Parliament has ever had to examine".

“The weather gods were the first to draw attention to the stupidity of the Climate Fools in Westminster. Weeks of icy weather froze the whole of Britain, wind turbines froze, solar panels were covered in snow, but coal, gas and nuclear power stations running at full power for 24/7 averted calamity. Power lines broke, stopping electric trains - on one line in Scotland the only train running was an old steam train burning coal.

"And ignoring the consensus predictions of global warming, a Snowy Owl, native of the Arctic Circle, arrived in Cornwall in December 2009, heralding another cold winter in which the sea froze on the Dorset coast.

“Luckily, the appalling foolishness which started at Westminster has not spread far, but sceptics world-wide will be celebrating Climate Fools Day to ensure the suicidal example of once-great Britain is not followed anywhere else.

Forbes said that word on Climate Fools Day had already reached Siberia because Siberian swans, which usually reach Britain in November, flew into Gloucestershire on 18th October, 2010.

“Winter usually follows the swans, and Westminster is again likely to be blanketed in snow when Climate Fools Day protestors again gather outside the British Parliament.

“Maybe our politicians should abandon their computerised climate models and take up bird watching?”

US publisher, Stairway Press, have chosen the Climate Fools Day gathering in Westminster to make the inaugural presentation of the "Ernst-Georg Beck Award for Scientific Integrity and Competence" (BASIC). Piers Corbyn gets the US$10,000 award for “his untiring efforts both as a climate skeptic and for his outstanding success in long-range weather forecasting”.

Leon Weinstein: "Looking for Hugh: The Capitalist Guidebook"

Earlier I posted a video by Leon Weinstein who left Soviet socialism for American liberty in 1974. Now his mission is warn Americans of their own looming socialist future before it is too late. Leon has produced a number of these videos in which he explains how the United States is currently taking for granted the freedom it has fought for - and how it is blithely allowing that freedom to be trampled upon and discarded. Leon starts off the below video by recounting an incident where an American girl was flabbergasted that he had emigrated from Russia to America. Why would anyone want to immigrate to the United States? Watch the video below.

Communist Party USA Leader Openly Backs Obama and the Democrats

Jarvis Tyner, national executive vice-chair of the Communist Party USA, spoke in Detroit October 7, on the need to for "left and progressive" minded people to help insure a huge voter turnout for the midterm election.

Tyner is uncompromising in his support for the Democrats and Communist Party "friend" Barack Obama.



The Communists understand what is at stake in these elections. Do you?

Must-See Weather Underground Documentary

The entire 2002 documentary entitled "The Weather Underground" is now available to watch for free on YouTube. In the below excellently produced documentary, former members of the Weather Underground reflect candidly about the idealistic passion that drove them to "bring the war home". In it they paint a compelling portrait of troubled and revolutionary times, with unexpected and often striking connections to the current world situation.

It's 90 minutes long, but take the time to watch it and be informed.

"Marxism in America" by Lt. Gen. (Ret.) W.G. Boykin

Lt. Gen. (Ret.) W.G. Boykin gives an excellent, point-by-point discussion of his background and training in understanding Marxist insurgencies and how this parallels current government actions.

Background to this video is at this post.

Marxist Terror in America

In this seven-part video entitled "Marxist Terror in America, Cliff Kincaid, president, America's Survival, interviews Max Noel, Former FBI Agent and Weatherman Investigator, and Larry Grathwohl, Vietnam Veteran and former FBI informant in the Weather Underground. The video is presented by: Justice for Victims of Weather Underground Terrorism, and focuses on the history of the Weather Underground.

The Day Cliff and Trev, Met Bill and Bernie

My friend Cliff Kincaid of America's Survival and yours truly, Trevor Loudon went along to the Green Fest in the Washington DC Convention Center yesterday.

Cliff wanted to challenge two of the Fest's Keynote speakers, former Weather Underground terrorists, turned Obama enablers, turned Green activists Bill Ayers and Bernardine Dohrn.

Being the shy, introspective type, I went to help Cliff hand out leaflets exposing the dark deeds and statements of Bill and Bernie and to observe, close up two people of whom I've written many a word.

Video One: Bernardine Dohrn, who praised the Manson Family mass murders, tells Cliff Kincaid to get away when he questions her about her involvement in the bombing murder of Police Sergeant Brian V. McDonnell. "Preposterous," she says. Her husband Bill Ayers (with the ear ring) rescues her from Kincaid. Finally, a Dohrn groupie grabs Kincaid's camera and it goes black. The beginning of the video shows Dohrn talking with "9/11 Truther" Medea Benjamin of Code Pink. She calls Kincaid the "pack of lies guy" because of his questions during the question-and-answer period following their remarks.

Video Two: Dohrn says she is not insane or a murderer. Ayers and Dohrn talk about revolutionary movements at Green Fest and denounce questions from Cliff Kincaid as a "pack of lies." The questions were about Dohrn praising the Manson Family murders and the dedication of their Praire Fire Manifesto to Sirhan Sirhan, the assassin of Robert F. Kennedy. Dohrn talks about "our past" and the "handouts" distributed by Cliff and myself about their involvement in terrorism. She says they are "pawns" to get at Obama.

Video Three: "Green Fest" conference organizer, Medea Benjamin's husband and fellow "Truther" Kevin Danaher (of Global Exchange) tells Cliff Kincaid that he won't talk on the record about why they invited unrepentant communist terrorists Bill Ayers and Bernardine Dohrn to their event The silence is deafening. "Do you want to stay in the event?" Danaher asks, implying that Kincaid could be booted out. "Are you going to call the police on me?" Kincaid asks.

All through their talks Bill and Bernie barely mentioned the "Green" word.

It was all about "social change" and building the "movement". Bernie used Hugo Chavez's favorite phrase - "21st Century Socialism".

On a personal note, I saw Bill's genuine concern for his wife as he tried to shield a clearly upset Bernie. It was good to see them up close. They are not disembodied caricatures. They are people like you and me, but they are as much in the grip of their socialist delusions as they were back in the 1960s.

That's what makes them dangerous. They genuinely believe in what they are doing. These are committed people, "true believers" in a cause they will serve to their graves.

Semi Slavery

Occasionally while traveling in the States, I'll slum it for a day or two in a backpacker's hostel.

Yesterday, while staying in such a place in one of the seedier parts of beautiful Washington DC, I got talking to talking to the maid assigned to clean out my room.

Turned out she was a Filipina, late 20s I'd guess and clearly well educated.

She told me she was a former junior school teacher, with a dream to rise out the the poverty she and her family were accustomed to. She wanted to buy her own house, so had come to work in the U.S. to earn some decent wages, then return home with enough to set herself up.

She'd paid paid $5,000 to an "agency", an huge sum in itself by Filipino standards, but on her arrival in the U.S. was hit up for another $6,000 in undisclosed "fees" and "charges".

For the last 18 months "Tia" has worked 7 days a week. She works weekdays in a childcare center, then in the evening until late as kitchen hand. On Saturday and Sunday she cleans the hostel then waitresses at night.

The "agency" accommodates her in a three bedroom apartment with 11 other Filapinas, all in a similar position.

I'm a capitalist. I admire this lady for her work ethic and ambition. I have no problem with legitimate businesses who help people from third world countries attempt to escape poverty through working in richer countries.

It's the element of fraud and exploitation that I despise. This kind of scam, the hidden "charges" and outright deception traps millions of men and women world wide on a never ending treadmill that is often one step above slavery. Horrible as it seems, "Tia" is probably far better off than many victims of these practices.

"Tia" was not complaining. I had to draw the information out of her. She was doing what she had to do to get ahead.


It's one thing to read about these scams. Its another to meet one of its victims in the capital of the world's richest and most benevolent nation.

Indiana Republicans Seeking to Defund Tax-Funded "Porn Institute"

Indiana Republican State Representatives Cindy Noe and Woody Burton are calling for the notorious Kinsey Institute to be defunded. The institute is located on the campus of state-subsidized Indiana University. "I don't think the Kinsey Institute is a proper use of taxpayer money. Given the pressure that higher education is under now I can't think of a better time to defund them," Cindy Noe said.


World Net Daily reports,

"After November we'll have a good legislature that will listen. This is the kind of material our taxpayer dollars shouldn't be supporting," said Clark.

"The last time I tried to defund them, their budget was $666,000," Burton told WND. "That number was quite a joke in the Indiana House."

"I went down to that place and toured it. It's just a pit. It's just a porno pit. They've got rooms where they take the college students in and show them pornography and do things to them. It's just disgusting; and they sit there and try to tell you it's just science.

"They perform sex," Burton explained. "They have a room and they send a girl in and insert a thing in her and measure her sexual stimulation. They have another room for boys. They have displays of all the sex toys throughout history, and they act like that's OK. I said this is trash, and they resented my saying it."

Burton noted that much of the Kinsey collection of sexual paraphernalia and research files are not open to the public – not even to the state legislators who fund it.

"I was trying to get a legislative order to go in and see that stuff. A video was sent to me about this guy on the Kinsey Institute board, who said they have a system set up to destroy their files immediately if anybody tries to get in to see it with a court order."

Patriots in Indiana. Are you ok with your taxpayer dollars going to fund this institute? If not, speak to your friends, family, colleagues - everyone. Keep fighting, and contribute to the likes of Woody Burton and Cindy Noe who have committed to bring an end to this corruption.

Chinese Professor on America

The Dawn of Liberty

A short movie has just been released, entitled "The Dawn of Liberty". Below is a four-minute trailer of the very well produced movie. Pass it on, and encourage everyone to get out and vote.

"...Nineteen April, seventeen and seven five. Do we really have it still? Is that spirit still alive? If we heard the call of Billy Diamond's drum, do we have it still within us - to stand forth and overcome?"

The video ends with the statement, "America's War of Independence was won with muskets and cannon... Today's Revolution can be won with the ballot."

Walid Shoebat on the Islamization of the United States

Walid Shoebat, a convert from Islam to Christianity speaks on the reality of the attempt to islamize the United States of America. You will learn a lot from this 3-part speech. In particular, note his words that "Terrorism is not the explosion. Terrorism is a political act." Watch it, and then pass it on.

DSA Celebrates new book on "ACORN's Kick-Ass Activism"

Democratic Socialists of America is celebrating "ACORN’s Kick-Ass Activism" with the publication of a new book by John Atlas entitled "Seeds of Change".

John Atlas is a longstanding DSAer, being an active member as far back as the mid-1980s. In fact, in 1979 he spoke alongside fellow DSAer, Nancy Kleniewski and Ruth Yanatta Goldway at a Democratic Socialist Organizing Committee-initiated Democratic Agenda Conference (In 1982, DSOC was to merge with the New American Movement to form the DSA).

Peter Dreier, who served as an advisor for Obama's 2008 Presidential Campaign, writes at the DSA's Talking Union blog, praising Atlas's book to the skies,

"No group was better at kicking ass than ACORN. That’s the story that John Atlas tells in his fascinating new book... Seeds of Change is full of fascinating people, colorful anecdotes, and political drama, but it is really a story about the hard but hopeful work of bringing about progressive change...

Atlas also reports on ACORN’s cunning “homesteading” campaign in Philadelphia in the 1970s that involved members illegally taking over blocks of abandoned housing in order to pressure local officials to direct funding for repairs and rehabilitation. He describes ACORN’s bold and successful campaign to pass a statewide referendum in November 2004 to raise Florida’s minimum wage by a dollar an hour...

Atlas devotes a chapter of Seeds of Change to the ACORN-affiliated Working Families Party, which has groomed activists to run for city and state offices in New York, helped them win elections, and played an important role in building a progressive coalition with labor unions and other groups.

Atlas, like ACORN’s leaders, expected Obama’s victory in 2008 to give the organization even greater influence. But during the campaign, and soon after Obama took office, ACORN became the target of a right-wing assault that it was unprepared for and, ultimately, unable to survive. Atlas reports on what he describes as the “tragedy” of ACORN’s downfall...

Atlas’s history of ACORN is sympathetic to the controversial group, but does not shy away from exposing its weaknesses, clashes over strategy, internal power struggles, tensions between white Ivy League organizers and a membership of mostly blacks and Latinos, as well as ACORN’s trouble with staff turnover...

Although Atlas recounts ACORN’s rise and fall, Seeds of Change does not end on a downer note. Atlas shows how, over the years, ACORN has been a real school for democracy, training thousands of activists who, even after leaving ACORN, continued to work as effective organizers for hundreds of community groups, unions, environmental organizations, and other public interest groups. Many ACORN veterans worked as key staff for elected officials and some became successful politicians themselves. Atlas also notes that ACORN’s willingness to experiment with different strategies and approaches has changed the field of organizing in numerous ways."

As an amusing side-note, Dreier's article was originally entitled "ACORN's Kiss-Ass Activism", until Talking Union editor Jason Schulman noticed the mistake and changed the title.

Why is it Every Time I Leave Christchurch....?

The day before my recent trip to California my home town of Christchurch New Zealand was hit by a jolting 7.1 earthquake.

Now hours before I board a plane back to the US, we get a 5.0 aftershock - one of the best of more than 1500.

This one caused at least one shopping mall evacuation and blacked out at least one suburb.

Better stay home for a while after this trip. The Earthquake Claims Commission people may well detain me at the Airport next time.

Thanks to those who entered our caption contest. There were some beauties.

Jim Jones, The People's Temple and Revolutionary Suicide

I'll bet you didn't know (and the media would never tell you) that the Jim Jones/People's Temple mass suicide in Guyana was a Marxist/Lenninst revolutionary act.

In 1976 the Peoples Temple changed a San Francisco political juggernaut which was secretly harboring designs of world communist revolution to a paranoid North Korean-style enclave in Jonestown in 1978. There, they negotiated with the Soviet Union, North Korea and others for a possible exodus. A Soviet delegation visited Jonestown, showering it with praise.

Maxine Waters' Pro - Communist Past

Embattled Californian Congresswoman Maxine Waters began her political career as an ally of the Communist Party USA .


Waters supported several party front organizations including the National Alliance Against Racist and Political Repression, which was led by leading communists Angela Davis and Charlene Mitchell.

This 1982 pamphlet reveals just willing then California State Assemblywoman Waters was to lend her name to Party causes.





During her 14 years in the California State Assembly, where she rose to the position of Democratic Caucus Chair, Waters was responsible for such legislation as the largest divestment of state pension funds from South Africa, "landmark" affirmative action legislation, and the introduction of the nation’s first plant closure law.

Waters entered Congress in 1991 and soon became a member of the far left Congressional Progressive Caucus.


Waters has also been a prominent anti War activist and has chaired the Out of Iraq Caucus.

Through her early days in Congress, Waters maintained close ties to her Party friends.

In May 1992 the Party newspaper Peoples Weekly World published a May Day supplement which included a call to "support our continuing struggle for justice and dignity" Endorsers of the call included "Congresswoman Maxine Waters, California."

In October 1992, Maxine Waters was keynote speaker at a Coalition of Black Trade Unionists meeting in her home town of St Louis Missouri . the Coalition, especially in Missouri, has long been heavily infiltrated by the Communist Party.

In June 1996 the Peoples Weekly World held a tribute event in Los Angeles for leftist unionists Jerry Acosta and Gil Cedillo

Presentations to the honorees were made by Clara James, chair of the Community Affairs Commission of the Second Baptist Church, on behalf of Maxine Waters and by Antonio Aguilar, on behalf of State Senator Hilda Solis - now Barack Obama's Secretary of Labor.

H.R. 950, the Job Creation and Infrastructure Restoration Act of 1997 was introduced in the 105th Congress on March 5, 1997 by Congressman Matthew Martinez of California. It had 33 original co-sponsors, all far left Democrats, including Maxine Waters.

Los Angeles Communist Party leader Evelina Alarcon was assigned by the Party to organize lobbying for the Bill. The Bill itself originated from two party front groups, the Los Angeles Labor Coalition for Public Works Jobs and its only affiliate New York Coalition for Public Works Jobs

When Maxine Waters threatened to nationalize oil companies a while back, she called herself a "Liberal".

"Communist sympathizer" would have been a more honest description.

Stand With Geert Wilders

Dutch politician Geert Wilders is on trial in the Netherlands for alleged "hate speech" against Islam.

This writer hates the concept of "hate speech".

I believe in complete freedom of speech for all - saints, sinners, fools and intellectuals, socialists, capitalists, racists, anti-racists, retards, Republicans, Baptists, bolsheviks, Muslims, marxists, Mormons, creationists, evolutionists, idiots, ideologues, Objectivists, a-holes and angels.

Freedom of speech often means offending certain people's sensibilities. I regard that as a good thing, because if you are easily offended, that's a sure sign your arguments are weak and need re-examining. Offending people is essential part of personal and social progress.

Outlawing the right to offend, is a hugely backward step for any society.

Therefore, like him or loathe him, all freedom lovers should stand with Gert Wilders.



Thanks to Carmen.

Help Requested

From time to time ask readers to consider sending a donation New Zeal's way, through the PayPal button to the right.

Please read the last few posts and ask yourself how much time and research went into them?

Ask yourself, if any other blog breaks as many in depth stories on the dark side of U.S. politics as consistently as New Zeal does?

All this is supported from my own pocket and the donations you send in.

Next week I'm off to Washington DC to speak at Cloff Kincaid's Marxism in America conference. I'll also be meeting people and doing research elsewhere on the East Coast.

If you'd like to make a donation, now would be a good time to do it.

Thanks

BUSTED! Conyers Meets With Marxists - How Democrat Politics REALLY Works

This may be one of the most important articles New Zeal has ever posted. Please read it. Digest it. Act on it.

This post proves a point I have long made: that Democratic Congressmen are willing to collude with marxists in order to promote socialist legislation and to influence the political direction of the United States.

This is how the modern Democratic Party actually works - in partnership (often junior partnership, at that) with hard core marxists.

Rep. John Conyers, Jr. (D MI), chair of the powerful House Judiciary Committee has been caught on tape, meeting with members of the U.S.'s largest marxist organization Democratic Socialists of America.

The tape clearly shows Conyers treating the marxists as friends. He continually refers to the gathering as "we", as he urges the comrades to rally behind his "beloved 44th president", Barack Obama.

The tape, posted on the D.S.A. Vimeo site, was filmed before the recent One Nation Rally in Washington DC, and shows Conyers speaking to a meeting of D.S.A. members in what appears to be an hotel room.

The website clearly states that this is a D.S.A. meeting and Conyers is introduced to the gathering by D.S.A. National director Frank Llewellyn. Prominent Boston D.S.A. member David Duhalde appears on the right, behind Llewellyn, wearing a beard, black T shirt and a cap.

In the first few seconds, Conyers is introduced by Frank Llewellyn as the "only congressman endorsed by Martin Luther King".

Llewellyn then notes Conyers' "long support for HR 676, the single payer Bill that this organization [D.S.A.] has long supported".

Quentin Young, Barack Obama

D.S.A. has indeed "long supported HR 676", which sprang from the "single payer" health care movement midwived by Chicago physician and D.S.A. member Quentin Young - a close personal friend of both John Conyers and President Barack Obama.

At about 34 seconds Llewellyn states, "many might not know that John is in the process of introducing sweeping legislation to address the jobs crisis - which is certainly one of the most important crises we face and one of the reasons why we're all here today."

At 60 seconds Conyers starts talking, addressing Frank Llewellyn by name and then says,

"Its good to know that a lot of my Michigan and Detroit and Grosse Point people are here. David Green, and Dave and Herman and probably others."

David Green is a leader of both Michigan and national D.S.A. Green visited Cuba in 2009 and proved his marxism with this statement in the Spring 2007 issue of D.S.A.'s Democratic Left.

"What distinguishes socialists from other progressives is the theory of surplus value. According to Marx, the secret of surplus value is that workers are a source of more value than they receive in wages. The capitalist is able to capture surplus value through his ownership of the means of production, his right to purchase labor as a commodity, his control over the production process, and his ownership of the final product. Surplus value is the measure of capital’s exploitation of labor

Our goal as socialists is to abolish private ownership of the means of production. Our immediate task is to limit the capitalist class’s prerogatives in the workplace...

In the short run we must at least minimize the degree of exploitation of workers by capitalists. We can accomplish this by promoting full employment policies, passing local living wage laws, but most of all by increasing the union movement’s power...

The Employee Free Choice Act (EFCA) provides an excellent organizing tool (i.e., tactic) through which we can pursue our socialist strategy while simultaneously engaging the broader electorate on an issue of economic populism.

This is one of John Conyers' "people". Coincidentally Conyers is also a big fan of the EFCA.

After a "new agey" rave about the "oneness" of everything (cut out of this video), Conyers thanks the gathering for coming to the march and at 1:30 minutes goes on to say:

"This is an important event, that we don't doubt will be played down and misinterpreted by the corporate media...We understand the significance of it. We know that when unions, political ideology, clergy, labor, civil rights come together... and just people that are progressive enough to see in this one World concept, that we're all in this together, it makes certain things easy to understand where we're coming from."

At 2:25 minutes, Conyers talks about "peace" and Dennis Kucinich.

"Overriding it all is the quest for peace in the world...and I am firmly supporting Congressman Dennis Kucinich's measure that would make a Department of Peace in the United States Federal government." (applause)

John Conyers was once an affiliate of the Soviet front World Peace Council. Like Kucinich, Conyers also has a long history with the Communist Party USA, which has consistently advocated such measures.


At 4:20 minutes, Conyers moves on to the "question of my beloved 44th president of the United States."

Conyers criticizes America's war in Afghanistan and how "we" need to "make it clear to him, through all the usual means of communication, including pickets and protests....there probably isn't anybody above the 10th grade who doesnt know that you cannot win a war in Afghanistan." (laughter).

At 7:35 minutes Conyers says of Obama;

"I respect him, I support him... I say that all against the backdrop, of the fact that in 2012, there is a highly organized effort to make sure that he is a one term president.

This started even before he was sworn in. It's grown... I only mention the Tea Party, because it is small and dismissible, but there are much more serious and affluent sources behind this effort to interfere with a re-election campaign of Obama... I've got to ensure he is re-elected 2 years from now. That calls for some balancing, but not a whole lot from where I stand."

At 6.10 minutes Conyers goes on to deal with how those assembled need to help Obama.

"I see that us making him more cooperative with our plans is going to strengthen him and not weaken him... (applause) And to have this press secretary of his denouncing the left is an automatically dismissible act, if I were president...

The whole point is that, trashing progressives and the left, and at the same time watching your ratings go down - gee... what's so difficult about figuring that out?... Whose job do you think it is to get him straightened out and get him on the right track? Ours! Ours!" (applause)

D.S.A. has tried to publicly distance itself from Obama in recent times, though they have a twenty seven year history with the President. Even Conyers has publicly criticized the President.

Clearly, John Conyers understands he is among friends, who are just as pro-Obama as he is. In private, Conyers and D.S.A. are right behind their man.

Like Obama, John Conyers has a long history with D.S.A.

• John Conyers was a special guest on day one of the Democratic Socialist Organizing Committee/New American Movement Unity Convention in Detroit March 21/22 1982, that resulted in the formation of D.S.A.

• In 2003 John Conyers was a keynote speaker at the D.S.A. national conference in Detroit - with 2008 Obama Black Advisory Council member Cornel West and the first journalist to promote obama on the national stage, the Washington Post's Harold Meyerson.

• In 2005 D.S.A'.s Democratic Left -Spring edition, called "Congressman John Conyers (a key D.S.A. ally in Congress)..."

--------------------------------------------

The real secret of contemporary U.S. Politics is this:

Under today's Democratic Party, much of the legislation they push for is not made by Democrats. It is actually formulated by organizations close to D.S.A. and the Communist Party. It is then infiltrated into Congress by socialist sympathizers like John Conyers and his comrades, in the more than eighty strong, D.S.A. co-founded Congressional Progressive Caucus.

Socialized health care, the grossly mis-named Employee Free Choice Act, the current push to "normalize" relations with Cuba, even the campaign for a national holiday in honor of D.S.A. and the Communist Party's best friend Cesar Chavez, are all communist/socialist initiatives.

If this sounds far fetched, remember that in most U.S. states the Democratic Party is almost totally dependent on labor unions for manpower and money.

Since D.S.A. member John Sweeney became president of the AFL-CIO in 1995, the once anti-communist U.S. labor movement has come under near complete marxist control.

Barack Obama, John Sweeney

He who pays the piper, calls the tune.

The Democrats simply put a "respectable" face on policies originated by tiny, but hugely influential marxist sects.

Think of it this way. Just as the Mafia once used "respectable" front-men to control Las Vegas casinos, the marxists use "respectable" Democrats, kept in line with labor union "muscle" to control your Houses of Congress.

That's how it works America.

If you don't start throwing the Democrats out of office come November, your children may inherit a country permanently ruled by these people.
