Not only do you need to climb down from the trees, but then crawl out of the caves. Some Christian conservatives say they didn't evolve. I tend to agree.

Some Christian conservatives do heart transplants, too.

When do we get to discuss Clintons connection to the Chinese?

Ahh, theres that personal attack against the conservatives again.

Note to Art.. the thread is about Obama, and Communism... I know you find it hard to post on topic and find a reason to continue to insult conservatives.. but please, please start a new thread.. your doing little to contribute to the topic at hand when you go about attacking other individuals that have absolutely positively nothing to do with.. Communism, or Obama..

At least you could pretend to try to tie them together by calling Obama a christian conservative, I have not yet got my daily dose of laughter.

In reading Obama's webpage there is refernce to the Obama USA sharing it's wealth with the world. I think we already do that to some degree. What exactly does Obama mean by this?

Is this part of his world communism?

Here are 3 articles about Obama's relationship with Frank Davis:

http://www.moonbattery.com/archives/2008/02/obamas_communis.html

There are literally hundreds of hits when you google Obama Communism. These are three of the first that I read. If these don't agree with you, rest assured there are plenty more that might.

Obama's mother Stanley Ann, though not a card carrying Communist, had romantic relationships with campus radicals and attended Communist functions at the University of HI. At one of those functions she met Obama Sr. who described himself as an "African revolutionary". They married and after a short six month pregnancy Stanley Ann gave birth to Obama Jr.

Obama Sr. soon abandoned his wife and child and returned to Africa. Young Obama, Jr was passed back and forth between his mother and grandparents. Stanley Ann had little time for child rearing because she was a campus activist for the Radical left and had a series of short lived romantic liasons. The last of these produced a marriage proposal from an Indonesian leftist. They married and Stanley Ann took baby Obama with her to Indonesia.

There was an active Communist party in Indonesia and Stanley Ann soon fell into working with them. She was accepted immediately. Her new husband, on the other hand, rarely participated and frequently disappeared for long periods without explanation. Within 2 years Stanley Ann learned that her new husband had several consorts and mistresses. His attitude toward young Obama has been described as "cold and uncaring".

There is no doubt that Stanley Ann's radical Communism rubbed off on her son and formed the basis for his early belief. Indeed when young Obama returned to Hawaii to live with his grandparents, there is strong evidence that seems to indicate that Stanley Ann's old radical friends reached out to young Obama. Among them was Frank Davis. Frank Davis had, by this time, participated in violent acts against the "white establishment" and had written of his exploits for the Communist newspaper. Obama became Frank Davis' shadow in Hawaii during these formative years of high school and shortly thereafter. At his knee Obama learned black radicalism, revolution and Communism. As Obama states in his book Dreams from my Father, Davis became a father figure and mentor.
LOL...you are too much. Now he's a communist. Good one.

These cold war fear mongers need to get a grip. If communism was so bad, why is China one of our largest trading partners? And we do bid-ness with Vietnam don't we?
