No, I’m not kidding – from Gateway Pundit:
Dan Margolis, chair of the New York State Communist Party USA and 2004 coordinator for the Democratic Party, recently wrote about the Communist Party’s influence in democratic politics.

When there were setbacks in the fight for health care, there was demoralization and frustration. Our Bronx club, which was instrumental in building an Organizing for America-based local organization, helped fight this feeling and, in the process, gained a good deal of experience. It can be said that, without the Communist Party, and solid leadership from one comrade in particular, the OFA group could have easily disbanded itself…
First off – Matt, is this guy a cousin of yours? Just curious – and if he is, don’t feel too bad. I’ve got a Marxist half-sister, after all (she’s a perpetual student/writer and I’d link to her stuff, but I’ve got a definitive impression from her that she wishes I’d drop off the face of the Earth, so we’ll leave that aside….wouldn’t want to cause her any trouble…imagine if her friends at Columbia found out her brother is a Republican! She’d have to undergo re-education, at the least).
That aside – fascinating that the commies are claiming credit for saving an Obama group. Fascinating, but not surprising. It is clear that under Obama, communism has become acceptable in the Democrat party.
That communists are, at best, fools and, at worst, beasts in human skin doesn’t seem to matter to the Democrats these days. That really does tell the tale of the Democrat party, and tells us why voting Republican in 2010 is a patriotic duty – we have to clear these people out before they wreck the nation.
