Earlier today, Congressman Allen West (R. - Florida), stated that "78 to 81 members of the Democrat Party are members of the Communist Party." Asked to be more specific, he pinpointed the Congressional Progressive Caucus.
As a vigorous progressive myself and a strong supporter of the caucus, I guess that makes me a fellow traveler. Not wishing to contradict The Good Congressman, I decided to sing a few bars of The Internationale. Still have the pipes for it!
Arise, you prisoners of starvation!
Arise, you wretched of the earth!
For justice thunders condemnation:
A better world's in birth!
Best to you, comrades!
Dan,
ReplyDeleteI agree that West is a disgusting character, attempting to tar his philosophical/political opponents with a seriously pejorative brush.
--Who, exactly, votes for these ignoramuses?
THAT is the question.
Beware of being too cute, however--
some visitors to your blog may not
realize you're joking and actually
take you for a communist. Best Wishes.
Well, Amber, the blog has received 11 pageviews from Russia and 3 from Germany. All of these hits from overseas appeared after this snarky commentary was posted. So you may be right. Who knows!
