Dinesh DSouza seems to be the latest darling of the TEA crowd. He paints Obammer as an Anti-Colonialist (Anti-Imperialist) Marxist. So Karl was an anti-colonialist. Isn't that also a prime tenant of libertarianism? Paleo-Conservative Pat Buchanan frequently gripes about the US imperialistic tendencies. Is Ron Paul a Marxist? Seriously, if Karl & I both like tuna salad, does that make me a Marxist or him a Quimbobberoo?. If D'Souza is trying to smear Obammer by linking him to a Russian Commie let's take a look at Russia for a minute. The patron saint of TEAse, Ronald Reagan, singlehandedly brought about the fall of the, dare I say it Soviet EMPIRE? Dunno about Ron's role but those guys looked pretty colonialistic to me. And Barry? Lessee, he still has us in Iraq, Afghanistan & maintaining a plethora of military bases all over the world.
Then D'Souza describes his upbringing as being similar to Obammer's because he was born & raised in India as an Indian citizen & Barry was born an American citizen & spent most of his life in the US state of Hawaii. ~gotcha~ Peas in pod.
D'Souza has seemed to learn one thing in the US. He seems to see how to tap into white racist fears of the "Angry Black Man". Barry's choice of ministers hasn't helped any, of course.
I guess this shows one of the unspoken objectives of the TEAse. In their desire to shrink government, they have vowed to not cut the military. That they condemn one of the prime beliefs of the original smaller, more constitutional libertarians speaks volumes.
"The American fascist would prefer not to use violence. His method is to poison the channels of public information. With a fascist the problem is never how best to present the truth to the public but how best to use the news to deceive the public into giving the fascist and his group more money or more power." ~ HA Wallace '44
