I am out of time and I will waste no more of it on this today.Democrats are not Marxists, Communists, or Socialists.You are mistaken.

In the Congressional Record, an excerpt from, "The Naked Communist," by Cleon Skousen is read and quoted.Why don't you take the time to see how your Senators compare to this track record? How many of the current Democrats have supported the tenets and platform from this excerpt in 1963? I bet it would shock you to learn the truth.On Tue, Sep 21, 2010 at 12:22 PM, Tommy News <tommysnews@gmail.com> wrote:

There is a distinction however, Those who I identify as "Marxists" have a track record of their votes and policies.Sometimes the truth hurts Tom, but when politicians vote in a Marxist fashion, what else would one call them?
On 9/21/10, Keith In Tampa <keithintampa@gmail.com> wrote:--No Tom, you're missing the real issue here, blinded by some secondary issue.First, the Pentagon should have every right to review and determine how repeal of DADT will effect the military. Second, and more importantly, the goal by the Marxists is to lock the Republicans out of amending the proposed Defense Appropriations bill now before the Congress. I don't trust the likes of Chuck Schumer, Barney Frank, and a host of other Marxists controlling the vote over Defense Appropriations. You shouldn't either.From CNN:But in a statement issued Monday night, Senator Susan Collins (Confused, Maine) said she would side with the rest of the GOP because the Democratic leadership of the Senate "intends to shut Republicans out of the debate."
Collins said she agreed with the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Adm. Mike Mullen, that the law is "simply not fair." But she said Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nevada, should give Republicans and Democrats "an equal opportunity" to offer amendments to the defense bill.
"Now is not the time to play politics, and I again call on the majority leader to work with Republican leaders to negotiate an agreement so that the Senate can debate the defense bill this week," Collins said.
In a separate statement, Snowe also indicated she would support a Republican filibuster, saying the chamber should be allowed a full debate on the measure. Snowe also questioned why the Senate would vote on repeal before the military has completed its review.
"We should all have the opportunity to review that report which is to be completed on December 1, as we reevaluate this policy and the implementation of any new changes," Snowe's statement said.
The defense authorization act, which is a broad defense policy bill, would not rescind "don't ask, don't tell" until after the Pentagon completes a review of the repeal's impact on the military. The review is due in December and would serve as the basis for necessary certification by the president, defense secretary and chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff that the military could handle repealing the policy.
