On the home page of the Communist Party USA it says “A better and
peaceful world is possible—a world where people and nature come before profits.
That’s socialism. That’s our vision. We are the Communist Party
USA.”
No, it’s not Socialism which is a
watered down version of Communism. Real Communism is the kind that was practiced
in the former Soviet Union. It can be found in Cuba and North Korea where the
state controls all power and property,and the people have none.
Modified versions exist in China,
Russia, Venezuela, and other nations where some aspects of Capitalism are
maintained for the sake of their economies. In the West Socialism was
incorporated by both the U.S. and Great Britain, and other nations via various
social welfare programs.
Capitalism is about profits,
innovation, entrepreneurship, and investment. It is about the freedom to acquire
wealth. It emphasizes work, not welfare. It is the reason America has a dynamic
economic system---when it is permitted to prosper, free from federal
interference.
In America, conservatives have always
been acutely aware of Communism, but the 47% who still approve of Barack Obama
and those who are members of the Democratic Party are the dupes of those whose
quest for tyrannical power permits them to tell the most appalling lies,
particularly about Republicans.
The Democratic Party is so
politically corrupt and devoid of moral standards that it is currently engaged
in seeking to harm potential Republican presidential candidates with an utterly
bogus indictment of Texas Governor Perry and the slanders leveled against New
Jersey Governor Christie. It is a tactic of those who fear a loss at the ballot
box.
It is the Democratic Party and its
elected officials that have advanced the global warming hoax, now called climate
change and the CPUSA website refers to the “Accumulation of greenhouse gases
(as) a ‘planetary emergency’” This is what both the President and the Secretary
of State are saying, but there has been no warming on a planet that is now 17
years into a cooling cycle.
As for those "greenhouse" gases,
nitrogen and oxygen are the most abundant in the atmosphere, followed by nothing
more dangerous than water vapor! Carbon dioxide is a very minor gas at 0.04%.
And most importantly, the Earth is not a greenhouse. When the Sun's
radiation is reduced due to its own natural cycles, it gets
colder.
Tied to the climate change message is
an agenda that includes Obama’s “war on coal” and his refusal to permit the
construction of the Keystone XL pipeline from our neighbor Canada, among other
measures to restrict access and use of America’s vast energy reserves. This is
an attack on the nation’s economy in the name of “nature” or the “environment.”
The CPUSA wants “No new sanctions on
Iran” and the administration’s negotiations with Iran to slow or end its nuclear
weapons program have dropped some sanctions to get them to the table, but no one
believes that Iran will stop because they are openly avowed enemies of America
and Israel.
If you wanted to harm America, you
would undermine its southern border so that thousands of illegal aliens could
join the estimated eleven million already here. That is what President Obama has
done and he is joined by former Democratic Majority Speaker Nancy Pelosi who
said of the illegals, “We are all Americans.” No, they are
not.
The chair of the Democratic National
Committee, Florida Congresswoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz, continues to push for
amnesty for illegal aliens saying “It isn’t about politics at all. They (illegal
aliens) essentially have become the backbone of the economy.” The Center for Immigration Studies has documented the
many jobs that have gone to illegal aliens, leaving native-born and naturalized
U.S. citizens with fewer employment opportunities.
In July Gallup reported that “With
thousands of undocumented immigrant minors crossing the nation’s southern border
in recent months, the percentage of Americans citing immigration as the top
problem has surged to 17% this month, up from 5% in June, and the highest seen
since 2006. As a result, immigration now virtually ties ‘dissatisfaction with
government’ at 16%, as the primary issue Americans think of when asked to name
the country’s top problems.”
The Affordable Patient Care
Act—Obamacare—is the perfect example of Socialism in its government control of
what once was the world’s finest healthcare system and is being destroyed by a
law for which only Democrats in Congress voted.
President Obama has illegally
asserted more power than the Constitution grants the executive branch,
unilaterally altering Obamacare. It is the reason the House of Representatives
is suing him.
For several generations since the
last century, Americans have been indoctrinated to accept an ever-growing
central government, but even so an August Reason-Rupe survey poll found that
fully 54% favored a smaller government providing fewer services. Just 18% of
Americans approve of the job Congress is doing, while 75% disapprove.
Though education is never mentioned
in the Constitution, we have a Department of Education and the same applies to
the Department of Energy, both created by Jimmy Carter. A Nixon executive order
brought about the creation of the Environmental Protection Agency that is
masterminding an attack on private property along with the manufacturing,
agricultural and energy sectors of the economy.
If one looks at the Democratic Party
today, there is often scant difference between it and the self-professed
Communist Party USA which twice endorsed the election of Barack Obama, a man
whose father was a Communist, whose grandparents who helped raise him were
Socialists, and who was mentored in his youth by a card-carrying member of the
CPUSA.
We have a President who believes that
the problems throughout the world have been caused by America. His disdain for the
nation and the military that serves to protect it is on full display. And the
Democratic Party twice chose him as its candidate.
If you want to see what Communism
looks like, acts and says, watch and listen to the Democratic
Party.

As the Democratic Party has become closely associated with Saul Alinsky (Thanks to Hillary Clinton et. al.) the title was intentionally meant to do the opposite. For those not familiar with Alinsky here's a couple of links to bring you up to date:
