I am very disappointed of Obama. But one learn from mistakes. There is somebody up there and that one doesn't betray es. We won't allow communism and if we have to sacrifice and eat bananas and beans only well, that is what will eat but will live in democracy. Apparently Obama does not understand that. Believe me when I say this is just the beginning and Honduras, a third world country will give the big potency's a lesson. We won't give up.

Geez, this whole business reminds of a wonderfully terrible film I saw as a teen in 1968: <i>Wild in the Streets</i> in which a young man with his gang of super-cool, super-smart hipsters end up winning the White House because they are so super-cool and super-smart and eveyone else, you know, isn't. Once in power they start sending free grain to Third World countries and withdrawing all US military forces back home. Youth takes over and everyone over 35 gets sent to LSD reeducation camps. It's beautiful. rickl: You betcha Obama is smart!

It's fun to think about. Sometimes when I read about Europe in the early 20th century it seems that everyone knew everyone. rickl: I saw a mention of the Hitler-Lenin drawing on The Corner.

It's hard to tell what hard-left means now. It's not just Obama either. The whole upper-tier of the Dem party seems to have sailed leftward, as more and more of the McGovernite class became powerful. Ted Kennedy tried to cut a deal with Yuri Andropov against Reagan. Carter considers Fahrenheit 911 one of his favorite films and invited Moore to sit with him at the 2004 convention. Al Gore has declared, "I love Van Jones." Then there was all that incredible sniping at Bush, not just at the DailyKos level, but Rep Pete Stark-D snarling about kids being sent to Iraq "to get their heads blown off for the president's amusement." And the attacks from the party level on Joe Lieberman for being pro-Iraq War. I understand that about half the country disagrees with Republicans and Bush, but I can't think of comparable wackiness from top Rep leaders, then or now. Could be. It’s hard to tell what hard-left means now.

Did Lenin and Hitler face off at a chess board?

I have no idea whether it’s legit or not (I’m inclined toward “not”), but it’s still interesting reading.

There is no question now that there is a deliberate strategy being implemented to change the American system, from domestic to foreign policy, into a hard left-wing model, and doing it in a time frame which prevents effective debate and political opposition. The "czar" phenomena effectively sidesteps contentious debate and congressional oversight. We've been had, there are traitors in the White House now. Impeach the Joker...
