Is Obama a "comrade"?

Post by _Jutta »

I met a former secret service officer of former DDR some days ago. He claimed to have proof; that Obama would have been a member of the communist party in the USA once; and within young years,visit the DDR for the world youth games.

Not credible at all. If there any proof of this, the republican party would have dug it up long ago.

You have to admit there's a certain Animal Farm vibe going on with the Obama administration.

While the American people break their backs to make a living, President Obama fetes himself constantly. He should apply sequestration to himself, and his lavish parties and vacations. It's obscene and immoral to spend millions when you're taking so much away from so many.

Perhaps the republicans knew nothing about it? Perhaps the republicans only have searched in the USA and not in Europe? And, would it be bad if Obama had been Communist for a while? He, others have nicked in their youth, have made bank robbery or raped somebody. And, today, these are all even well-behaved tax paying citizens, some are famous. Here it has not been bad, Communist to be anyway, or what?

By all means, you should tell the former DDR secret service officer (which in all likelihood he would have referred to as 'Stasi' - not 'DDR secret service') to sell this information to a conservative group. I'm sure Sheldon Adelson or the Koch brothers would pay big money for this.

Too bad he didn't sell this information before the election. The market value would have been a lot higher. But I'm sure he told you because that was the best way to get the information out to the general public.

Would anybody pay a Cent, if I had prooves for it, that Tommy Monson as an Apostle, would work with this GDR secret Service men together? I suppose not! And, by the way., I had no proove for my Statement, except, that Monson had a lot of Meetings with the "Church OFFICE" of the former GDR, in which a lot of employees work also for the Stasi. But "COMRADE MONSON" sounds better than "COMRADE OBAMA". by the way, I believe, that this Stasi guy was drunk or he would tell lies to make himself more important.

I take it that you've either never read the book or are unfamiliar with the rise of Stalin.

You may as well have just compared Obama to Hitler...
