How I know Obama is a Communist - ALAN KEYES
America's Independent Party ^ | Sunday, February 22, 2009 | Alan Keyes

Posted on 02/22/2009 11:26:27 AM PST by EternalVigilance

Loyal to Liberty THOUGHTLET

What signals the difference between a "socialist" and a "communist"? It's the gradual repression of political and civil liberty culminating in the open prosecution and suppression of dissident views. But this suppression cannot come about until a monopoly has been established over access to the seats of government executive and decision making power. The key manifestation of this monopoly is of course some form of party dictatorship.

Aside from all the evidence in his known background, associates, policy preferences and political actions one of the main reasons I make bold to call Obama a communist is his grab for unchecked partisan control over the conduct of the next census. Skillful manipulation of the census could make the decisive contribution to establishing an electorally unchallengeable party monopoly, which would then provide the basis for consolidating party dictatorship. If such dictatorship were not part of their agenda, the Obama faction would leave ultimate oversight of the census process where the Constitution places it in the hands of the legislative branch. As it clearly is part of their agenda, only ignorance or willful stupidity blinds people to Obama's ambition to establish a better tailored version of Soviet-style government in the U.S.

Of course, there may be another name for what keeps some of the so-called Republicans from speaking out about it. Could it be cowardice?

It was the temple in the stadium that clinched it for me.

Many people here at FReepers do not like Alan for some of the weirdest of reasons. How ever if one reads what he has to say you are over whelmed by the truth.

The Democrats are trying to take over the country. Hence, they enemy combatants and no longer representatives.

Keyes is one of the one suing for proof that Obama is a ‘natural born’ citizen.

[from same blog - http://loyaltoliberty.blogspot.com/ - brings you to same]

Until a friend sent me an email about it on Friday, I hadn’t read Senator Coburn’s speech. But on Thursday evening in Hastings, Nebraska, when asked about Obama’s policies, I said that he is a radical communist, and that if Americans who care about liberty (i.e., who don’t want to put a stake in its heart?) do nothing to stop him he’ll bring about the destruction of the United States.
Though I never watch Keith Olbermann’s drivel or anything else on MSNBC (and advise others to practice the same abstinence) I read that in response to my comments he questioned my sanity.

If I’m out of my mind, I guess I’m not the only one.

I also read that Olbermann tried to make something sinister out of my saying that unless Obama is stopped (in his efforts to establish a communist state) the U.S. will be destroyed. Compared to the sort of language used against say, Ronald Reagan and G.W. Bush by Democrat and left wing-critics, this is a polite and reasonable exhortation to political action. However the effort to construe it as something else smacks of the tactics employed at the famous show-trials of Stalin’s era, even as Olbermann’s suggestion of insanity brings to mind the communist practice of committing dissidents to psychiatric hospitals. Could their use of such tactics be the reason Olbermann and his “We’re all socialists now” Newsweek buddies (like his guest for the segment, Jonathan Alter) don’t want us using the “C” word? We might remember the tactics of communist repression, and notice some similarities.

Keyes had a Righteous ( I mean RIGHTEOUS) interview lately-Feb 9- here:

That was one very touching story about your encounter with him in the Denver Park, EternalVigilance.

They were closer to the truth with the Greek columns and pagan Temple shrine.
But he belongs in a museum. Ripley's Believe It or Not.

Third Party talk is complete insanity.
If you can not control the Republican Party, from within, how in the hell will you control the country, or even have a voice, in a “3rd Party”?
You can't!
Politics is hard, hard work.
Those who take the 3rd Party route are quiters who do not want to admit that they quit.

“Divide and Conquer” is the game plan of any tyrant.

You are playing into the tyrants’ hands when you encourage division in our ranks.

However,
I do realize that some states allow candidates to run under more than one party label.
In those states, alone, your 3rd Party idea is acceptable.

If the Republicans nominate a strict-constructionist conservative then I will vote Republican, if they don’t, I won’t.

No, Keyes is as right as rain. Doesn’t mean we’re going to join the Independence party, but he’s still right.

Leftists, Democrats, MSM and the Communists need to paint Keyes as nuts to discredit him at every turn. They don't paint the message, what they say is about the man. Note they don't attack his message, ever...right from the Communist/Stalinist playbook.

Keyes is a kook, and him screaming this from the rooftops, although accurate, is counter-productive.
