| Stop Calling Them Democrats. They're Communists. |

| [American Thinker] It’s time to stop calling them Democrats. This is no longer the party of FDR, JFK, or even Bill Clinton, and it’s time to start calling a spade a spade. Imagine this scenario: You have a neighbor, Mr. Jones—a kind old man whose wife died years ago, who works in his small garden, wears the same old jacket all the time, and has a funny but genuine laugh. One day, suddenly, Mr. Jones disappears. Several days later, you notice some activity in his place—it looks like Mr. Jones—and you go to say hello. But suddenly, you realize this is a stranger. He looks like Mr. Jones, sounds a little like Mr. Jones, and acts in some ways like Mr. Jones. But it’s not him. This person lives in Mr. Jones’ place, wears his clothes, works in the garden, and even has a strange imitation of his laugh. "Who are you?" you ask. He responds, "Why, I’m Mr. Jones, of course!" But it’s not him. This creepy scenario is what has taken place with the Democratic party. One of the stated goals of communism, from the Congressional Record in 1963, was to take over one or both political parties from within. They’ve succeeded. In 1949, William Z. Foster, a chairman of the Communist Party USA, dedicated a book by writing "To My Great-Grandson Joseph Manley Kolko Who Will Live in a Communist United States." He seemed quite confident. One of the many challenges real Americans now face is to start calling "Democrats" what they actually are. They’ll protest. But if it walks like a duck, quacks like a duck, and acts like a duck, we need to call it a duck. We’ve been conditioned to believe that communism is just a myth, that it isn’t real, or even if it is real, it only exists in faraway places like China, and anyone who mentions it is a conspiracist who deserves ridicule. |

| #5 ^ McCarthy was right, but the wagon train just moved on like nothing happened. |

| #4 Read about the Venona Intercepts if you want to understand the levels of deep penetration of the US Government by the ComIntern and Soviet NKVD/GRU/KGB agents dating as far back as the mid 1930's. So what do we know 67 years later? For one thing, that McCarthy actually underestimated the number of American Soviet spies working for the USSR in the FDR administration. It took a while, but in 1994 NSA and CIA released 190,000 formerly classified cablegrams they, and their predecessor agencies, intercepted from 1943 to 1980. The number of American Soviet agents identified from Venona has reached 500, more than double the 205 McCarthy predicted — as researchers have decrypted only ten percent of the documents thus far. Most of the spies named so far are well known: Julius and Ethel Rosenberg and Alger Hiss, whom the left maintained were victims of American imperialism, are now proved guilty. Assistant U.S. Treasurer Harry Dexter White, now deceased, who became head of the World Bank; and Lauchlan Currie, highly placed in the President’s office; and hundreds more placed in every Cabinet level organization in the U.S. government. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Americans_in_the_Venona_papers |

| #3 Here's the deal: Joe Stalin gave communism a bad name so they stuck to calling themselves Democrats after WWII. But nobody remembers Stalin anymore and now I think they've gotten so brazen that they're probably OK with letting the world know what they really are. |

| #2 My impression has always been that FDR, JFK and Clinton were communists. Don't forget LBJ. Carter was just a fool. |

| #1 Centralization and concentration of power has been their goal all along. The State can never be too big enough for them. They chased out the classical liberals several generations ago but wear their skins to hide their totalitarian proclivities. |
