    This story just confirms what many of us already know about Obama's communist roots:

    http://www.americantownmeeting.com/Essays.php

    Click on the link that says "Original essays On Barack Obama".

    I know I can't copy and paste the whole article, but here are some excerpts:

    During the period of roughly February 1992 to mid 1994, I was making frequent trips to Moscow, Russia, in the process of starting a software development joint-venture company with some people from the Russian scientific community. One of the men in charge on the Russian side was named V. M.; he had a wife named T.M.

    V. was a level-headed scientist while his wife was rather deeply committed to the losing Communist cause - a cause she obviously was not abandoning.

    One evening, during a trip early in 1992, the American half of our venture were invited to V. & T.'s Moscow flat as we were about to return to the States. ...As the evening wore on, T. developed a decidedly rough anti-American edge - one her husband tried to quietly rein in...."You Americans always like to think that you have the perfect government and your people are always so perfect. What if I told you that you will have a black president very soon and he will be a Communist?"

    She became more and more smug as she presented her stream of detailed knowledge and predictions so matter-of-factly - as though all were foregone conclusions. "It's all been thought out. His father is not an American black so he won't have that social slave stigma. He is intelligent and he is half white and has been raised from the cradle to be an atheist and a Communist. He's gone to the finest schools. He is being guided every step of the way and he will be irresistible to America."

    She was full of little details about him that she was eager to relate....She rattled off a complete litany. He was from Hawaii. He went to school in California. He lived in Chicago. He was soon to be elected to the legislature. "Have no doubt: he is one of us, a Soviet."

    I had to post this after I saw the comments by 'Old Regular' that he believed Obama's intent was to destroy our country's economy. I too have had the very same thoughts. IMO, Socialism is only a few small steps from Communism and I believe it is Obama's "trojan horse" intention to make us a Communist dictatorship.

    In the past several months, I've been watching an old television drama series from 1953-56 called "I Led 3 Lives". It is a TV series based on a book that was a bestseller in the early 1950's, the true story of an man named Herbert Philbrick (who was a Baptist, BTW) who worked with the FBI infiltrating the Communist party as a counterspy from the years 1940-49. It's very sobering to realize that 60 plus years later we are still fighting the Communists who are just as intent on destroying us. Unfortunately with the election of Obama, we may be in much worse shape than we ever were during the cold war of the 1950's and 60's.

    I'm not sure if I believe it, it's just an "interesting" story.

    I still believe Obama's intentions for this country are not what he pretends them to be.

    Well a lot of people, including many on this Forum, believe everything that spews from O'bama's mouth as if it is divinely inspired.

    It is a fact that while O'bama was in Hawaii his mentor was a Communist. While he was a student at Columbia he sought out and associated with Socialists. You can roll your eyes all you want but this country will suffer because of O'bama.

    What should "O'bamanites" engage? If you believe this work of fiction is true, then I have a bridge I'd like to sell you.

    That the author of the essay happened upon a successful secret conspiracy by the Russians to plant a communist in our office of President is beyond silly.

    V and M wouldn't happen to be code names for Boris and Natasha would they?

    Let me guess, the author of the essay is Rocky the Flying Squirrel.

    I haven't read this article yet, BUT, as a point of interest, other than it being a slam on the big "0" on what basis do you dub it "FICTION"?

    (Inquiring minds want to know!) :smilewinkgrin:

    Slamming the big "0", as you put it, doesn't necessarily make it a work of fiction.

    What makes me believe that it is a work of fiction is the fact that there is absolutely no evidence to support it.

    Top Secret---- Obama was brainwashed as a small child by SPECTOR and has been a plant to take over the US all along. But he has slipped up by referring to Biden as #2, instead of Vice President and will soon be exposed! :laugh:

    The basis for the O'bamanites is that it is a slam on the big "O"!:thumbsup:

    First clue is that even they call it an "essay". It is not a news article or a news report of any kind. Second who even wrote it? The person doesn't even stand behind it with a last name. Thirdly, the characters in the story are just initials, no real names of real people. There is absolutely no evidence presented and nothing that can be verified. This is as bad as those nutty people that would just make stuff up about Bush with no proof to back it up. Matter of fact I would say this "essay" makes Michael Moore's work look well balanced and complete.

    If this guy was ready to stand behind this assertion he would have posted his last name. Only giving my first name I could post on the internet some pretty wild (and untrue) stories. It's not worth commenting on.

    His last name is Fife.

    I am wondering why he didn't bother to tell his story during the primaries.

    Wouldn't that have been a more relevant time to spread his fantasies?

    My sense is that the guy may be not quite right.

    Is that on the article? I didn't see it. Does he have any (gosh) facts to back up his story?

    No, it is not in the essay. But if you go to the discussion section of the site you can read the posts and read what he has to say.

    I don't know anything more bout it than what is on that website.

    If the "O'bamanites" are wrong to believe this and unfactual, aren't you just as wrong to believe it because it is a "slam on the big 'O'"?

    I could make up a story that Obama is actually a Chinese Communist, but he uses makeup to look black. You'd buy it hook line and sinker because you are blinded by hate.

    This story is on numerous pages of the Internet. Here is another place I've found it:

    http://www.worldnetdaily.com/index.php?pageId=88439

    (Yes, it's from the liberals favorite news source, spare me the wisecracks already.)

    The author is a real person and his name is Tom Fife. (BTW, I wonder how many Barney Fife jokes he's had to put up with in his life?)

    The author says this about her story:

    I can't prove whether it's true or not,

    I'll wait for the truth.

    No, the author of the story did not say that.

    The woman, Janet Porter, who writes the column in which she is reporting the story said that.

    The story was written by a man named Tom Fife. Others on the Internet have said that they personally know Tom Fife, that he is not a fictional person and that they have no reason to believe the story is fictional.
