Are you trying to say that certain facts are more factual than others? If so how about you either listing some of your facts or attempting to point out which of the facts Kengor talks about aren't anything but propaganda.

Now remember my definition of propaganda is anything from absolute lies to absolute truth that is used to further an agenda.

All the progressives jump on the Obama-bashing-Romney bandwagon because his "past reflects his future",....but, the same group finds nothing distrurbing about Obama's past relationships.

What a bunch of ignorant hypocrites!!! Nothing but "sheeples" following so close to Obama's backside that their noses are all brown from the contact.
Well now another example of one's past not reflecting on his present would be the man, Bill Ayers, who introduced Obama as a candidate for Senate in Illinois. Ayers has certainly changed a bunch since his days of rage against the US government. Speaking of days of rage which he has mentioned, isn't that the offer from the Occupy group?

The most interesting thing I have noticed the past couple of days while trying to find something that said that Obama couldn't possibly be a socialist was the words of that black minister, what is his name, about who Obama's real father probably was. I saw just that thing in a couple of other places last night and think I have found why Obama never put the whole name of that man in his 22 mentions of his first name.

Better yet, I discovered yesterday that when Obama talked about his father being a soldier in WW II was completely dishonest. I know that is true because I am over 6 years older than either of the men who may have been his father and I was almost 13 when the war ended. Both of them died in their 50s in the 80s so they just couldn't have taken part in the war since neither of them was over 7 at the end. It gets better and better all the time.

This thread could turn out to be full of left leaning propaganda before it dies.

Why don't you just go ahead and tell me what of Kengor's words seem to be so untrue? Is that too much to ask since your deflective attempts to bury with your words won't work for anyone not as left leaning as you are?

Really, I would be glad to have you tell me what part of Kengor's words were lies when you listened to the video.

Could it be that the left has nothing POSITIVE they can say about Obama, so they have to resort to deflection?

If the President can't run on his record, and feels safe in hiding his past, there's not much left to run on,...except attack the other candidate.
Sol, you know that deflection is one of the major techniques that Alinsky taught them to use and that is really all they have left now. Since they can't use Obama's record to campaign on all they seem to have left has to be attack the other side. They attack the messenger, just as Alinsky told them to do and that leaves the kind of attacks on Romney, as all they have left.

.....can "ignorance" be an agenda? If so, I know someone who is uniquely qualified.

Well, for what it's worth, I work in the warehouse of an on-line bookseller, and the book is on the shelves and ready to go.

And there are still a few geezers out there who think it's time to finish the job the late Sen. McCarthy started.

But their numbers continue to dwindle; For the present, it's Obama and his clique who are entertaining the fantasies of power, and are willling to tamper with two centuries-plus of Constitional law to get their way.

I know which of the two represents the greater threat right now; and I want the means to deal with either one kept intact.

She is proof that we can have fun while presenting FACTS, and oh boy this thing does. This thread is begging for it, so let's lighten it up and have some laughs at the same time.



New, Updated "There's a Communist Living in the White House" (with Aaron Klein) - YouTube
I'm pretty sure Gloria Jackson is mentally retarded.

I see that you are one of the people Kengor talked about connecting him to McCarthy. Have you read quite a few of the books that were written by those who believed in McCarthy or do you specialize in the ones written by probably communist sympathizers trying to ruin him? I have read more of the former and have come to believe that he was surely very right. Those people were there, like it or not. Some of them have even been convicted.

Well where people who think like you do she may be, but if you watched that whole thing you may not talk like that.

Do you realize that the topic of this thread is communism and those who follow and believe in it. Why, yes, that book is primarily another expose of Frank Davix and his kind and their influence on many young people who are still around. That would include many of those named in that video from Jackson like the former czar of green and the one who appointed him. Initials of VJ and BHO.

Obama on Davis:
Quote:
"It made me smile, thinking back on Frank and his old Black Power, dashiki self. In some ways he was as incurable as my mother, as certain in his faith, living in the same sixties time warp that Hawaii had created." (Dreams from My Father, CH 4-5)
Sounds like young Barak took him very seriously....

Obama had opportunities to be in Davis' company from 1971-79, ages 10-18. I doubt seriously if a young Obama gave two seconds worth of serious thought to what two old men discussed.
