Alert!! Democratic party has been taken over by radicals...?

Question

My parents were democrats their whole lives, and they do not recognize this new party..and they voted for Obama...
Now it is becoming clear, that the democratic party has been infiltrated by old 1960's comunist party.. What do you plan to do about it democrats? or do you care? or are you a part of this democratic face?

Answer 1

This is a common theme I am finding from current and past democrats - even their beliefs are being blurred by this administration.



You and your parents are not alone in running for the hills. It is about time TRUE AMERICANS w/common sense and a passion for freedom and what America stands for unite against these people.

Answer 2

"Now it is becoming clear, that the democratic party has been infiltrated by old 1960's comunist party."



Although McCarthyism came in many flavors, all its adherents agreed that it was essential to eliminate the danger of American communism. They differed, however, in their assessment of what that danger was. Right-wingers, hostile to everything on the left, attacked liberals as well as communists, while moderates, who were willing to purge actual Communist Party members, tried to protect noncommunists from unfounded persecution. They did not always succeed. In the supercharged atmosphere of the early Cold War, the anticommunist crusade spun out of control, creating the most widespread and longest lasting episode of political repression in American history.

Who will be the new Joe McCarthy to lead the GOP.

Answer 3

It's true. JFK would not even recognize this party. Thing is, I don't think its the whole party, just those running the show. There are a lot of dems still that are true liberals, and they should start to speak out.

Answer 4

Radicals have taken over both parties. It's scarier with the Dems because they are in power.

Answer 5

If you took a JFK dem, he/she would be considered a republican today. Jack & Teddy were nothing like each other politically.



Some registered as dems and will never re-register since that's the way their family is.



A clear example is Zell Miller. He stated that he doesn't agree with the DNC but will always be registered as a dem. Zell spoke at the 2004 GOP convention. http://www.americanrhetoric.com/speeches/convention2004/zellmiller2004rnc.htm

Answer 6

Infiltrated by old 1960 communist party = No.

What I plan to do about it = Nothing.

Do I care? = No

Am I part of the this Democratic face = I don't know what you're talking about.

Answer 7

Wow, you must not be very intelligent if you automatically adopt what your parents say. Ive been Repub all of MY life, but voted for Obama this election cycle because of the radicalism and needless extremism going on in the Republican party. Why not think for yourself?

I Knew the minute you said it.

Answer 9

good question. I've heard it said that the Democrats thought they were using these new liberals for their benefit, when in fact, these new radical liberals have been using the Democratic party to infiltrate our government.

Answer 10

You're parents are worried about the Democratic party being 'radical' when the GOP is screaming at the disabled about 'death panels', saying Obama will release terrorists into their backyards, saying that Obama is going to kill their disabled babies and grandmothers, carrying loaded automatic weapons to peaceful town hall meetings?? You're either lying about your parents, or they are completely clueless.
