Communist Party Endorses John Kerry

GUESS WHO'S ENDORSING JOHN KERRY????
The Communist Party of The United States of America,
CPUSA, is publicly supporting the election of John
Kerry. No, this is not a typo...you read it
correctly. CPUSA has made available on its Web site,

ww.cpusa.org

an advertisement entitled Top Ten Reasons To Defeat
Bush. This advertisement can be downloaded. The
communist party urges readers to place this ad in
local newspapers throughout the country to defeat
President Bush.

Remarkably, the "Top Ten Reasons" of the Communist
party are identical to those of the Democrat Party;
out-sourcing, homosexual rights, abortion and the
like.

At first, it was thought that "this was only a
coincidence.! " The Democrat party of the United
States couldn't be in lock step with the Marxists! So,
the originator of this email wrote to a spokesman of
the CPUSA in Georgia and here is part of the
spokesman's letter:

"The CPUSA supports the John Kerry campaign with
donations and volunteer effort. We believe that
defeating George Bush is the single most important
issue this November"

**Next, it was discovered that one of Kerry's campaign
themes is "Let America be America Again." This slogan
was borrowed from a Communist poet, Langston Hughes.
This is not common knowledge to the average American.
"Let America be America Again" sounds good but is a
rambling, gloomy poem.

Then, if this was not convincing enough that the
Democrat Party has lost it, a third discovery! A
Vietnam vet group took a trip to Communist Hanoi to
investigate a report that John Kerry was in the "Hanoi
Hall of Fame."

Yes, there! is a museum in Hanoi with a section
dedicated to foreign activists who help defeat the
United States Military in Vietnam. Of course, you
would expect Jane Fonda's picture to be there. But,
alas, there is John Kerry's picture shaking the hand
of a communist official. Never has there been such a
tragedy! Never has there been such a threat to
America! Has the Democrat party been taken over
by the far, far left? It's not only the communists but also
the homosexual activists who are appalled that George
Bush is married to a woman! They are enraged that the
President wants a constitutional amendment to protect
traditional marriage between a man and woman.

Then we have the ACLU running to a federal activist
judge with every piece of legislation that doesn't fit
into their leftist agenda. They support every
Democrat Socialist whim.

The removal of the Ten Commandments is their top
priority!

Don't trus! t this message for the truth -- visit the
CPUSA website at www.cpusa.org -- read the articles,
and then decide for yourself.

So Comrade, who will you vote for during the next
Presidential Election???

Langston Hughes was a great American poet not a great communist poet

In 1923, Hughes traveled abroad on a freighter to the Senegal, Nigeria, the Cameroons, Belgium Congo, Angola, and Guinea in Africa, and later to Italy and France, Russia and Spain. One of his favorite pastimes whether abroad or in Washington, D.C. or Harlem, New York was sitting in the clubs listening to blues, jazz and writing poetry. Through these experiences a new rhythm emerged in his writing, and a series of poems such as "The Weary Blues" were penned. He returned to Harlem, in 1924, the period known as the Harlem Renaissance. During this period, his work was frequently published and his writing flourished. In 1925 he moved to Washington, D.C., still spending more time in blues and jazz clubs. He said, "I tried to write poems like the songs they sang on Seventh Street...(these songs) had the pulse beat of the people who keep on going." At this same time, Hughes accepted a job with Dr. Carter G. Woodson, editor of the Journal of Negro Life and History and founder of Black History Week in 1926. He returned to his beloved Harlem later that year.

He must of got a little commie on him when he visited Russia.
What a moronic article.

Let America Be America Again

By Langston Hughes

Let America be America again.
Let it be the dream it used to be.
Let it be the pioneer on the plain
Seeking a home where he himself is free.

(America never was America to me.)

Let America be the dream the dreamers dreamed--
Let it be that great strong land of love
Where never kings connive nor tyrants scheme
That any man be crushed by one above.

(It never was America to me.)

O, let my land be a land where Liberty
Is crowned with no false patriotic wreath,
But opportunity is real, and life is free,
Equality is in the air we breathe.

(There's never been equality for me,
Nor freedom in this "homeland of the free.")

Say, who are you that mumbles in the dark?
And who are you that draws your veil across the stars?

I am the poor white, fooled and pushed apart,
I am the Negro bearing slavery's scars.
I am the red man driven from the land,
I am the immigrant clutching the hope I seek--
And finding only the same old stupid plan
Of dog eat dog, of mighty crush the weak.

I am the young man, full of strength and hope,
Tangled in that ancient endless chain
Of profit, power, gain, of grab the land!
Of grab the gold! Of grab the ways of satisfying need!
Of work the men! Of take the pay!
Of owning everything for one's own greed!

I am the farmer, bondsman to the soil.
I am the worker sold to the machine.
I am the Negro, servant to you all.
I am the people, humble, hungry, mean--
Hungry yet today despite the dream.
Beaten yet today--O, Pioneers!
I am the man who never got ahead,
The poorest worker bartered through the years.

Yet I'm the one who dreamt our basic dream
In the Old World while still a serf of kings,
Who dreamt a dream so strong, so brave, so true,
That even yet its mighty daring sings
In every brick and stone, in every furrow turned
That's made America the land it has become.
O, I'm the man who sailed those early seas
In search of what I meant to be my home--
For I'm the one who left dark Ireland's shore,
And Poland's plain, and England's grassy lea,
And torn from Black Africa's strand I came
To build a "homeland of the free."

The free?

Who said the free? Not me?
Surely not me? The millions on relief today?
The millions shot down when we strike?
The millions who have nothing for our pay?
For all the dreams we've dreamed
And all the songs we've sung
And all the hopes we've held
And all the flags we've hung,
The millions who have nothing for our pay--
Except the dream that's almost dead today.

O, let America be America again--
The land that never has been yet--
And yet must be--the land where every man is free.
The land that's mine--the poor man's, Indian's, Negro's, ME--
Who made America,
Whose sweat and blood, whose faith and pain,
Whose hand at the foundry, whose plow in the rain,
Must bring back our mighty dream again.

Sure, call me any ugly name you choose--
The steel of freedom does not stain.
From those who live like leeches on the people's lives,
We must take back our land again,
America!

O, yes,
I say it plain,
America never was America to me,
And yet I swear this oath--
America will be!

Out of the rack and ruin of our gangster death,
The rape and rot of graft, and stealth, and lies,
We, the people, must redeem
The land, the mines, the plants, the rivers.
The mountains and the endless plain--
All, all the stretch of these great green states--
And make America again!

Once again, cjhsa has got it all wrong. The US Communist Party is not endorsing John Kerry for president. ---BBB

Setting the record straight: CPUSA position on 2004 elections
Author: CPUSA Internet Department
First published 25.08.2004 20:00 by

In the past month, several phony reports have been circulated by right-leaning papers and websites -- making various false claims about the Communist Party position on the 2004 elections.

Some have dabbled in dirty tricks to smear Kerry using the toxic mix of red-baiting and forgery. For instance, several websites have allowed a forged document to be posted that appears be an official CPUSA endorsement of Kerry, but it is in fact an incompetent counterfeit. They not only twisted our position around, they even got the name of our National Chair wrong (It's Sam Webb, not Marc Brodine)!

The red-baiting forgeries are just another part of the Bush campaign which is running on lies and fear. So, for the record, the CPUSA position on the 2004 elections:

1. The CPUSA is doing our utmost to help defeat Bush. We're deeply concerned about the great dangers of a second Bush term, as is the majority of the country and world and every major progressive organization. On a wide range of key issues (Social security, healthcare, reproductive rights, overtime pay, minimum wage, and much more), there are real, substantial differences between Bush and Kerry.

2. The CPUSA does not endorse any candidate for President in the 2004 election. We do not endorse the candidates of other political parties. We have refrained from fielding our own candidate so as not to distract from the main effort of defeating Bush and the ultra-riight extremist agenda.

3. The CPUSA has it's own independent political platform for the 2004 elections.

Though our platform goes much further towards full social justice than
Kerry's, to win any of it requires defeating Bush. A movement that can break the Republican stranglehold on government could then win social progress on many fronts.

If you would like more information on the CPUSA, please contact [email protected] or call 212-989-4884. Thanks, and vote against Bush on November 2nd.

The Fiscal Recklessness of the Bush Administration
The Fiscal Recklessness of the Bush Administration
by Charley Reese
September 20, 2004

The fiscal recklessness of the Bush administration's economic policies, if you can dignify them with that name, presents a greater danger to the American people than terrorists.

Terrorism can always take a few individual lives, but a financial collapse can ruin the lives of millions. The Bush people have taken the country from a projected surplus of trillions of dollars to a projected deficit of trillions.

That multitrillion-dollar debt, coupled with the already enormous corporate and personal debt levels, represents a clear danger to the future of this country. The postwar generations don't know what an economic depression is, but their grandparents could tell them it makes our little recessions seem like boom times.

Being a country boy, I've always been suspicious of Wall Street financial gurus, but there is one area in which I at least respect them. That area is knowledge of high finance. And the really smart financiers are voicing genuine alarm at the direction the Bush administration is taking this country. Robert Rubin, President Clinton's Treasury secretary, and George Soros, the billionaire, are two. They are not academics who play games with computers; they are street-smart guys who learned from experience and made their fortunes in the toughest game in the world. Rubin, I should point out, is acting as an adviser to John Kerry.

Far from being the conservative he claims to be, President Bush has allowed discretionary spending to increase at a far greater rate than it did during the Clinton years. Bush has abandoned the pay-as-you-go principle and chosen to combine drastic tax cuts with fighting two wars. Lyndon Johnson tried the guns-and-butter route during the Vietnam War, and we paid for it with double-digit inflation and double-digit interest rates, followed by a severe recession. Bush is going the guns, butter and cream route, and the consequences will be bad, very bad.

The cruelest, most despicable form of theft is inflation - or, put another way, the devaluation of the currency. To hide its crime, the U.S. government periodically changes the base year on which inflation is measured. Even by its latest base year, inflation has robbed people of about 40 percent of their purchasing power. Not long ago, a dollar would buy one euro and some change; today, it takes $1.20 to buy one euro. That's not a good trend.

Right now, we are running record deficits and record trade deficits, and there is no end in sight, except a looming economic disaster that could impoverish millions of people, virtually wiping out what's left of the middle class.

Some years ago, I spent several hours reading old newspapers on microfilm from the weeks leading up to the stock-market crash of 1929. There was not a word of warning in those newspapers. What economic stories that were printed sounded eerily like today's talk - e.g., "the economy is basically sound," etc.

No, it's not, folks. It's on dangerous ground. John Kerry has a lot of faults, but he at least understands the seriousness of the economic situation and is committed to correcting it. People had better get over this liberal/conservative nonsense or red-herring issues like gay marriage and put a man in the White House who has the IQ to keep this country from going over an economic cliff.

Bush lives in a Technicolor world, but he can only see black and white. The world isn't that simple. We cannot afford a president who wants a two-paragraph summary of a complex issue and who thinks anybody who disagrees with his impulses is an enemy.

Yes, Kerry is a boring speaker. Yes, Kerry doesn't know the seat of his pants from a hole in the ground when it comes to firearms issues. And yes, oh Lord, I wish there were a different choice. But for the sake of economic survival, we'd better send Bush back to his comfortable life in Texas, lest his reckless policies make the lives of the rest of us uncomfortable in the extreme.

EQUAL RIGHTS apply to every man, woman, and child. Despite their race,sex,creed,or sexual preferance. Who are we or any president to deny anyone the right to love and enter into union? Sounds to me we have religion and politics intermingling a little to closely. In my town we have a hate monger named Fred Phelps,and his religious followers. I know he will be voting Bush based solely on this issue.

Bumblebeeboogie: I thought things were looking bad now, the way you put it the worst is yet to come. I agree fullheartedly!! Thankyou for realizing the seriousness of these other issues. But hey at least those rich people with their Bush supported tax break won't have to suffer. If Bush makes another term I'm afraid he may have us back in those times where monopolies rule, and the government controls the peoples right to CHOICE!!!

This is an absolutely stultified thread from the beginning.

I hear that the Charles Manson Fan Club is 100% for Governor Bush.

They just think he was wimpy at Abu Ghraib. But they know that even without a plan he's a meaner dude than Kerry. Winning? Who cares about winning. That's a Commie Concept.

Kill a Commie for Christ still works for the Manson fan club. Why do think they were after Sharon tate? It was the have Polish offspring of that Knife in the Water guy. He was no Lech Walesa. And the kid was going to have beard like Karl Marx.

What else could they do? Shoot Leslie Van Houten with a tranquilizer gun. Fortunately most Manson fans are felons and can't vote or don't bother to register.

How's Gus Hall doing anyway? Playing bridge with Generalissimo Franco in hell? Or is he living?

The Polanski Baby was bound to be a commie being half polish and all.

Communism is a fine concept. But if they could only get greedy people to share and acknowledge their equality to the rest of us without having to force it, we'd probably all be communists.

But imagine it sort of like living in Baghdad now. When you force an idea on people they are likely to be hostile to it.

The Tibetans say that it's o.k. to accept money from an enemy. The reasoning is that once it's in your pocket it spends just as good as money from a friend.

That's why I'm still a customer at my bank.

The right should get some order in their insuting accusations - all that above has been said before .... and even FrontPageMagazine had a kind of excuse/verification in it's made August 2, 2004 issue (e.g. re the so-called Hanoi 'Hall of Fame', which actually is in Saigon and shows a photo of Kerry in 1993).

I love it. BBB actually takes quotes directly from the cpusa website and posts them here as rebuttal to my claim that they are endorsing Kerry.

Geesh people, I cannot believe the responses that have been posted here. I mean comon, if it looks like a duck, walks like a duck, quacks like a duck....

I'm seriously considering abondoning this website due to the lack of logical thought.
