When Rudy Giuliani dared to name Frank Marshall Davis (Communist Party card no. 47544) as an influence on a young Obama, liberals ripped their garments and wailed “blasphemy!” Rudy’s unpardonable sin reminded them of all sorts of noxious behavior. And in some cases, it reminded liberals of -- what else? -- racism.

“This week’s race to the bottom, led by former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani, is proving why Americans are learning to hate politics and the media,” stated Chuck Todd on NBC’s “Meet the Press.” “Giuliani even used an old racial dog whistle of the Civil Rights era, communism.”

To illustrate Rudy’s effrontery, Todd played a clip of this blatant display of racism: “[Obama’s] grandfather introduced him to Frank Marshall Davis,” said Rudy, “who was a communist.”

Once again an excellent article by Paul Kengor about Obama's tutelage in communism by his mentor Frank Marshall Davis and how bh0 sees America through Davis' anti-American teachings.

Redistribution of wealth to the perpetually-dependent is a communist goal of the Democratic Party; that is why with no basis in reality, the TEA Party (Taxed Enough Already) was painted as racist. Anyone who wants to reduce taxes MUST want to deprive our most notable perpetual dependents (urban blacks) of the most basic needs.

The Dem media strategy worked; ignorant low-information Americans view the TEA Party as extremist without the slightest idea what it represents.

I have added some more information on Frank Marshall Davis and other Communist Party leaders in regard to Hawaii, as well as some comments on WEB DuBois. Hope they help FR readers understand, with some additional information, what Prof. Kengor was talking about.
