By now I'm sure you've heard of the Congressional Black Caucus, the Congressional Latino Caucus, and the Tea Party Caucus. However, odds are you haven't heard of the Democratic Socialists of America Caucus. From Gateway Pundit:
The Socialist Party of America announced in their October 2009 newsletter that 70 Congressional democrats currently belong to their caucus.
This admission was recently posted on Scribd.com:

This confirms that the radical leftists have hijacked and define the mainstream of the modern Democrat party. This also means you now know who needs to be defeated and removed from congress.
Allow me to remind you what their agenda is. From the American Socialist Voter, with my comments in parentheses:
"The market and its ideology is rife with internal contradictions. While capitalists abhor public planning as inefficient and counter productive, transnational corporations make decisions with tremendous social consequences, including automation, plant shutdowns and relocations, mergers and acquisitions, new investment and disinvestment--all without democratic input. They also engage in unrelenting efforts to control the market, even through illegal means such as price fixing, antitrust violations, and other collusion."
(Public planning is inefficient. Examples are Social Security, the US Postal Service, and Amtrak. Any industry that has financial issues has labor unions with heavy socialist influence. Like the automobile industry and the UAW.)
"In the workplace, capitalism eschews democracy. Individual employees do not negotiate the terms of their employment except in rare circumstances, when their labor is very highly skilled. Without unions, employees are hired and fired at will. Corporations govern through hierarchical power relations more characteristic of monopolies than of free markets. Simply put, the domination of the economy by privately-owned corporation is not the most rational and equitable way to govern our economic life."
(With public sector unions, bad employees are seldom fired, and get paid a nice sum of taxpayer money to sit in a "rubber room". The NEA is a close to a monopoly on the teaching profession that you can get.)
"Fifty years of world leadership have taken their toll on the U.S. The links among heavy military spending, fiscal imbalance, and a weakening economy are too clear to ignore. Domestically, the United States faces social and structural economic problems of a magnitude unknown to other advanced capitalist states. The resources needed to sustain U.S. dominance are a drain on the national economy, particularly the most neglected and underdeveloped sectors. Nowhere is a struggle against militarism more pressing than in the United States, where the military budget bleeds the public sector of much needed funds for social programs."
(What's a drain on the national economy are socialist entitlement programs, public sector union salaries with pension plans, and the high taxes and government spending that fund them. If America spent less on these things, and more on the military, cops, firefighters, and EMT's we'd all be better off. Notice they don't talk about the heavy military spending of the North Koreans or the Chinese, who are becoming much more capitalist these days.)
"No country, even a superpower like the United States, can guarantee peace and stability, never mind justice. Only a genuinely multinational armed force can intervene in violent conflicts to enforce generally accepted standards of human rights and democratic practices.
Such peacekeeping is one important function that must be strengthened within a new global governance. Enforcement of international standards is another. Treaties on human rights, international labor standards, women's rights, environmental protection have all been ratified by many nations (albeit generally not by the US). Enforcement remains problematic. New international regulatory bodies must ensure that the interests of all the world's people are protected with the power to tax transnational corporations that can now escape national taxes."
(A genuinely multinational armed force? New international regulatory bodies? The UN does all that and has been an abysmal failure. Private citizens or individual nations such as ours shouldn't have to give up their sovereignty or freedom to a collectivist global body like the UN. The US, especially under Reagan, kept the socialists at bay since the end of World War II and led to the collapse of the Soviet Union. The socialists never forgave us for that.)
November can't come fast enough. Time for conservatives to take this country back.
