Dennis Kucinich linked to Communist Party

Wikipedia  "Links to Communist Party
Dennis Kucinich has reportedly been close to the Communist Party USA since his days in Cleveland Ohio council politics in the 1960s.
Take Kucinich first. As mayor of Cleveland in the late 1960s, he represented one of the most “left” elements in the Democratic Party during the heyday of the radical protest movement. He was closely allied with the Stalinists of the CPUSA, who still had significant influence in the working class of Cleveland, particularly in such unions as the UE and UAW. With the collapse of the protest movement and the shift to the right in American bourgeois politics, Kucinich was driven out of political life for two decades, before returning to office as a state legislator and ultimately winning a congressional seat.   World Socialist Web Site

Dennis Kucinich and the Communists  "After all he is a member of the far left Congressional Progressive Caucus.
"Few realize however, that Dennis Kucinich is allied to members of the Communist Party USA, a party with more allegiance to China and Cuba than to the the United States of America.
"Check out this official Kucinich ad from his brief 2008 presidential campaign."



"The video doesn’t say so, but Bruce Bostick is no ordinary steelworker. He is a veteran of the 1969 Venceremos Brigade to Cuba and a long time Ohio and national official of the Communist Party USA."

Pro-Communist Kucinich Caught Shilling for Gadhafi?  "Given his long time communist ties, Kucinich’s denial of improper activity on behalf of Libya’s former socialist leader should not be taken at face value.
"Dennis Kucinich should be investigated by Congress to determine whether he has ever acted improperly on behalf of the Gadhafi regime.
"Or is covertly working as the agent of a hostile foreign power no longer considered unacceptable behavior for a US congressman?"

Cuomo Phobia

Mike Adams "I am writing to express my deep disappointment with your recent decision to push for an expansion of the definition of marriage – one that allows for marriage between a man and a man or between a woman and a woman. Most of your recent critics are writing because they think your crusade on this issue has gone too far. I’m writing because I don’t think it goes far enough."....
"When people attack you for your recent success in legalizing same sex marriage they are likely to use scare tactics. They are likely to say that you have opened the door for incestuous and polygamous marriages. I want you to resist the temptation to dismiss their remarks as homophobic. To do so would actually reinforce phobias against incest and polygamy. So, instead, please show some courage and admit that the same logic that allows for same sex marriage also allows for incestuous and polygamous marriage."

Zero New Jobs in America

Heritage  "And while the U.S. economy is creating no net new jobs, President Obama is offering no new ideas to fix the problem. In a speech to a joint session of Congress next Thursday, the President is expected to rehash the same expensive, ineffective policies he has tried since his presidency began. And it’s an economic philosophy that America has come to know all too well. The President hopes that through the sheer force of spending taxpayer dollars, he can turn the economy around. It isn’t working—and neither are nearly 14 million Americans."

Obama’s Jobs Speech to Offer More Failed Stimulus  "What he is going to say is open to speculation. Advance teasers coming out of the administration suggest he will once again call for the creation of an infrastructure bank to fix roads, bridges and airports — and create thousands of new jobs for unionized workers; push for an extension of the temporary employee payroll tax holiday; and, as he did in his speech Tuesday to the American Legion, ask Congress to approve some kind of tax credit for companies that hire unemployed veterans.

"Obama is also likely to call for another extension of unemployment benefits and increased funding for school construction and renovation. He may also, some analysts suggest, call for a temporary tax holiday that will allow U.S. corporations that do business in other countries to bring profits earned in those countries back into the United States at a reduced rate."
"All of this is interesting, but almost none of it would have the effect of stimulating the American economy to any real degree."

Victor Davis Hanson: Liberal Psychoses

Victor Davis Hanson  "But much of our public weariness stems from his loud liberal hypocrisy. Our president lectures about a certain sort of school he never has sent his child to. He talks about “folks” with whom he has never wished to vacation. Unlike a Truman or Humphrey, he sought office not to help those clingers with whom he might have wished to associate, but to feel good about wanting to help from a safe distance from those with whom he most certainly did not wish to mingle."

2012 Is the GOP's Election to Lose. Obama can't run on hope so why not fear?

The GOP's Election to Lose?  "Charlie Cook: "The economic data buttress the view that this presidential election is the GOP's to lose, although if Republicans nominate a candidate who has difficulty connecting with the independent voters between the two ideological and partisan 40-yard lines -- that is, the voters who ultimately decide elections -- they may well test that proposition." "

David Limbaugh  "Whereas Obama was once seen as far above the fray of petty partisan politics and unencumbered by the stale, corrupt traditions that hamstring Beltway politicians from delivering reform, he is now known to be as petty and hyper-partisan as the best of the party bosses of old." May 2011

Left paints the campaign as a religious war   "Put aside whether there is some bias against Christianity in these baseless charges, or whether liberals are proposing the kind of religious test for office that the Founders explicitly rejected. It has often been remarked that, given today's terrible economy, Barack Obama cannot run in 2012 on the theme of hope, as he did in 2008. With his record, he'll have to run on fear -- that is, on convincing voters that Republicans are just too scary to elect."

That race card again (Updated)

The Latest Climate Gore: You Knew This Was Coming   "So it has come to this: since these epithets haven’t worked, Gore is now comparing climate skeptics to racists. "

 Wolffe: Opposition To Obama Speech Possibly Based On Skin Color  ""The interesting question is: What is it about this president that has stripped away the veneer of respect that normally accompanies the Office of the President?...." Since this was from MSNBC I belive we can assume these remarks went unchallenged.
Related update: A Racism Charge Without Evidence  "...Wolffe is a particular kind of journalist, one who also happens to be an Obama courtier. And with every passing day, it appears as if he views his role less as a journalist and more as hagiographer for the president and an attack dog against the GOP. All of which means Wolffe is earning his pay from MSNBC."

Rep. West threatens in letter to leave Congressional Black Caucus over tea party bashing  "In response to recent comments made by Indiana Democratic Rep. Andre Carson  and California Democratic
Rep. Maxine Waters  that denigrate the tea party movement, Florida Republican Rep. Allen West — a member of both the Congressional Black Caucus and the Tea Party Caucus — sent a letter to CBC Chairman Emanuel Cleaver Wednesday requesting that the body condemn such remarks."

Is Criticizing Colin Powell Racist?  "Apparently, USA Today founder Al Neuharth thinks so."....
"The irony here is if there is one thing Rice, Powell, and Cheney can agree on, it is that snide attacks like Neuharth’s reflect a poisoned attitude which has no place in serious debate."

 Top 10 Outrageous Maxine Waters Quotes   ...."10.  Liar, thief:  For those liberals who decry harsh conservative attacks on President Obama, let’s hearken back to 2005 and listen to Waters’ comments on President Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney:  “The President is a liar.  Dick Cheney, the chief architect of the Big Lie, is not only a liar, he is a thief.” "

(Updated) NASCAR drivers give thumbs down to presidential visit

Photoshopped, naturally
Rick Moran  "As for Gluck's "patriotism" shot - is he really equating patriotism with being an extra in a campaign commercial for a candidate they don't support? Besides, I don't recall hearing that argument during the Bush years when dozens of lefties from every walk of life dissed Bush by either turning down invitations, or by showing up and "speaking truth to power." Politics is politics and what's good for one side, is good for the other.
"You go, boys."
Emphasis gleefully added. TD


This rebuttal to my TW article was posted on Facebook by Tom Dignan, Sr. 
I thought about linking it to Mr. Dignan's Facebook page, but was not sure about the propriety of doing that.
"The drivers have major commitments with their sponsors that could not be cancelled,they did not "Snub" the President. All said they would attend if they had been given more notice, most have been ther[e] at least once before."
Thank you for this comment. TD

 Jeannie DeAngelis: Barack Obama’s NASCAR Blues  "...sarcastically chiding the NASCAR no-shows, an irritated Obama advocate argued: “You’d think whatever photo shoots or sponsor appearances these drivers have lined up on Wednesday afternoon – if that’s indeed the reason – could be rescheduled. After all, this is the President of the United States we’re talking about here.” Ouch!"
