American Thinker . . . "Bernie’s choice reminds me historically of the halcyon days of international communist fraternalism in the 1930s when misguided Americans in the hundreds marched off to join the “Abraham Lincoln” brigades in Spain to fight alongside the communists there. What troubles me, though, is that those deluded idealists of the 1930s were totally clueless as to the track record of the communist Soviet Union with regard to the state-sponsored deaths of millions of its own citizens in the Great Famine and KGB (NKVD)-led purges. But Bernie, you knew of the millions murdered and of the Gulags and yet you still chose to spend your honeymoon in the real world equivalent of Mordor! If he did it today, I could chalk it up to Alzheimer’s, but in 1988? We sleepwalked in 2008 and 2012 through the revelations concerning Barack’s anti-American tendencies. Are we going to repeat our national mistake?
. . .
"A people do get the government that they deserve! My advice to Bernie in fact is what the hell, it is 2016 in America, so I’d just come out of the closet completely and use “Communist” not “Socialist.” If Americans elected Barack twice and were okay with Rev. Wright, Bill Ayers and Valerie Jarrett, I think they’ll be more than fine with “Communist.” After all, a people ignorant of history will have great fun repeating it!" . . .
