American Leftists and Communist Rhetoric

The following are the stated goals of the Soviet Communist Party for the year 1963. These goals were entered into the Congressional Record by Congressman Albert Herlong, Jr., a Florida representative from 1949-1969.  I am only listing the most applicable of the 45 stated goals that still could be applied to the American political panorama in 2008. See if these "concepts" are not strikingly similar to the present day rhetoric of the American radicals. The list is shocking: (The following are direct quotes)

1. Promote the UN as the only hope for mankind. If its charter is rewritten, demand that it be set up as a one world government with its own independent armed forces.

2. Use technical decisions of the courts to weaken basic American institutions, by claiming their activities violate civil rights.

3. Get control of the schools. Use them as transmission belts for Socialism, and current Communist propaganda. Soften the curriculum. Get control of the teachers' associations. Put the party line in textbooks.

4. Gain control of all student newspapers.

5. Infiltrate the press.Get control of book review assignments, editorial writing, policy-making positions.

6. Gain control of key positions in radio, TV & motion pictures.

7. Eliminate all laws governing obscenity by calling them "censorship" and a violation of free speech and free press.

8. Break down cultural standards of morality . . .

9. Present homosexuality, degeneracy, and promiscuity as "normal, natural, and healthy."

10. Discredit the American Constitution by calling it inadequate, old fashioned, out of step with modern needs, a hindrance to cooperation between nations on a worldwide basis.

11. Discredit the American founding fathers. Present them as selfish aristocrats who had no concern for the "common man."

12. Belittle all forms of American culture . . .

13. Support any socialist movement to give centralized control over any part of the culture - education, social agencies, welfare programs, mental health clinics, etc.

14. Discredit and eventually dismantle the FBI.

15. Infiltrate and gain control of more unions. (Notice the key word: MORE)

16. Transfer some of the powers of arrest from the police to social agencies. Treat all behavioral problems as psychiatric disorders which no one but psychiatrists can understand or treat.

17. Discredit the family as an institution. Encourage promiscuity and easy divorce.

18. Create the impression that violence and insurrection are legitimate aspects of the American tradition; that students and special interest groups should rise up and make a "united force" to solve, economic, political, or social problems.

19. Internationalize the Panama Canal. (Thank you Jimmy Carter!)

20. Repeal the Connally Reservation so the US can not prevent the World Court from seizing jurisdiction over domestic problems. Give the World Court jurisdiction over domestic problems. Give the World Court jurisdiction over nations and individuals alike. (End direct quotes)

Pretty nice list, huh? Twenty of the forty-five. That's damn near half, even in the "new" math!

Is it just me or are we still hearing this nonsense on a daily basis?  Don't these 1963 "Communist Goals" sound almost as if they were lifted directly from the playbook of Obama and his minions?  Make no mistake - Commie in 1963 or radical American Leftist in 2008 - all the same. 

There can be no doubt that the American Left has moved ever closer to full-fledged Communism; they just use different phraseology.  Now we hear the word "progressive" in place of Marxist but it's all the same.  A dog turd called triple fudge ripple ice cream will still taste like crap, and these brilliant Progressives are nothing more than Marxists and damn near Communists in all but name.  Dear God what are we to do?
