Vote Republican or Suborn Socialism -- Your Choice

Vote Republican or Suborn Socialism -- Your Choice


         Some ask, do we want to see Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) become Speaker of the House next year?  If not, they say, we must all vote Republican.

 
         They’re correct, of course.  The problem is, there is a great deal more to this problem than just Nancy Pelosi.  As Minority Leader, she’s but the most obvious of the potential problems awaiting a liberal takeover of the House.

 
         As a start, let's just talk about those Members of Congress who actually attend socialist meetings -- Nancy Pelosi is but one -- and identify some of those who would be in major leadership positions if the Democrats win the House in November.

 
         Over the past few years, the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA), and its arm in Congress, the Congressional Progressive Caucus, have sometimes bragged publicly that they have the same agenda.  What the DSA admits, but the Progressive Caucus has not outwardly disclosed yet, is that their socialist goals include the downfall of our capitalist form of government and much stronger federal government controls on the American people.

 
         With the help of House Minority leader Nancy Pelosi, Progressive Caucus socialists cover most major House committees and many of them are "ranking minority members" -- which means they would chair the committee if the Democrats win a majority in the House in November.

 
         For instance, picture that idiot from
Detroit, John Conyers (D-MI), as chairman of the Judiciary Committee, or the contentious Henry Waxman (D-CA) as chairman of the Committee on Government Reform.  Anyone watching any of the hearings over the past few years knows both of them wander between dangerous and useless.

 
         Socialist sympathizer Charlie Rangel (D-NY) would get the chairmanship of the powerful Ways and Means Committee and Maxine Waters (D-CA) would chair the subcommittee on Domestic and International Monetary Policy.  What new fiscal hell would they initiate?

 
         Barney Frank (D-Mass), whose friend and roommate ran a homosexual outcall prostitution service out of Frank's home, would chair the House Financial Services Committee.  But wait!  Major Owens -- famous for his many one hour diatribes about how so many thousands of slaves were tossed overboard when the slave ships were bringing them here that the sharks still today follow the ships’ paths looking for more -- might chair the Workforce Protection Subcommittee.  Or, picture Jerry Nadler (D-NY) trying to chair either the House Judiciary Committee or the House Transportation Committee.  He’s senior minority member on both.

 
         Bernie Sanders (I-VT), a card carrying socialist and founding member of the Progressive Caucus, is ranking minority member of the House Financial Institutions and Consumer Credit Committee and so would chair that.

 
         Progressive Caucus member Bernie Thompson (D-MS) is ranking minority member of the Committee on Homeland Security and so would get that.  Louise Slaughter (D-NY) is ranking minority member of the powerful Rules Committee, which could be interesting with her as chair.  Pete Stark (D-CA) would chair the Health Subcommittee of Ways and Means.  Nydia M. Velázquez (D-NY) would chair the House Small Business Committee.  Diane Watson (D-CA) would chair the Subcommittee on Energy & Resources.  Mel Watt (D-NC) would probably get the Judiciary Committee’s Subcommittee on Commercial and Administrative Law.  Neil Abercrombie (D-Hawaii) is ranking minority member on the Tactical Air and Land Forces Subcommittee so would get that.  Madeleine Bordallo, the Delegate from
Guam, is ranking minority member on the Committee on Small Business’ Subcommittee on Regulatory Reform and Government Oversight and would become chair.  Sherrod Brown (D-OH) would chair the Energy and Commerce Health Subcommittee.  The chair of the House Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure would go to Peter DeFazio (D-OR).  Sheila Jackson Lee (D-TX) would get the Committee on the Judiciary’s Subcommittee on Immigration, Border Security, and Claims, which would certainly become interesting.

 
         Lynn Woolsey (D-CA), the co-chair of the Congressional Progressive Caucus, would chair the House Subcommittee on Education Reform.  But she is  also a senior minority member of the House Committee on Science so might get that instead.  Co-chair of the Congressional Progressive Caucus, Barbara Lee (D-CA), might even get to chair a committee of some sort.

 
         And so it goes, right on down the line.  The cold hard fact we must remember this November is that there are 62 members of the Progressive Caucus in the House -- card carrying socialists, one and all.  That is, there are 61 Democrat-socialists and one independent-socialist in the House who outwardly align themselves with the domestic arm of the Socialist International.  Most of the group have been in Congress long enough to become ranking members on their respective committees.

 
         Which means that, if by some chance, Democrats win the House this November, Nancy Pelosi -- also a Progressive Caucus member -- becomes the first outwardly socialist Speaker of the House (and third in line for President of the United States) and her Progressive Caucus (socialist) members would be in place to chair many of the important House committees.  

 
         Can we allow that to happen?

 
         This means that if you vote for ANY House Democrat this year it is the same as putting these practicing socialists closer to controlling the whole of the United States House of Representatives.

 
         As can be seen, if we do not vote Republican, we will be suborning socialism.  So . . . now, who is going to pull which lever at the polling place next November?

 
         A few of the so-called Republicans running for Congress are not a whole lot better than the Democrats.  But, they are better, overall.  And, as a group, Republicans will be much easier for us to deal with.

NOTE:  The Congressional Progressive Caucus web site is now located on the House computer system, but that is a relatively recent move.  Originally, the Progressive Caucus was started by Rep. Bernie Sanders (I-VT), a card-carrying Socialist Party member.  For many years, the Progressive Caucus web site was hosted by the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) / Socialists International web site.  Later, when I published that information, the Progressive Caucus attempted to disassociate itself from the most notorious of the socialist domestic and international organizations.  Really, though, they are all still joined and profess exactly the same platforms.

DSA is the largest US affiliate of the Socialist International, which is a worldwide organization of 140 socialist, social democratic and labor parties.  The SI has the distinction of being the largest political organization in the world, so they say:
