Are Republicans behind the Marxists/Socialists/Communists for Obama group?
Edited on Sun Jan-06-08 04:21 PM by The Night Owl
A righty at one of the forums I frequent posted a link to the following site...

http://my.barackobama.com/page/group/MarxistsSocialistsCommunistsforObama">Marxists/Socialists/Communists for Obama

Is the Marxists/Socialists/Communists for Obama group a satire in the same vein as Communists for Kerry? I think so.

What makes me suspicious of the Marxists/Socialists/Communists for Obama site is the last line in the group profile...

We support Barack Obama because he knows what is best for the people!

I used the Report Objectionable Content link on the page to alert the site administrators about the page and I urge others to do the same.

1. They don't sound like the Marxists/Socialists/Communists here
For one thing, the Obama site people want to compromise because they think they can't get anybody in office. All the other socialists always say that they have the most popular ideas but that corporations prevent anybody from ever running on them.

Looks like a hoax site the GOP will use to discredit Obama.

2. One can easily imagine the breathless Fox News report about the Communists for Obama page. {EOM}

I am now convinced that the Marxists/Socialists/Communists for Obama group is sincere. The group seems to be run by an earnest youngster.

4. Has to be a hoax.
What person in their right mind these days would want to associate their name with Marxists or Communists? Has to be a joke by some internet junkie...

I have not yet received my orders from Karl Rove, though.
