DSA

One of the great cover-ups is the membership by folks in Congress to an organization called the "Democratic Socialists of America." The DSA is the largest socialist organization in the United States. "How many belong?" I hear you ask...well it's very hard to pin down an exact number, but by this count here, there are 56 members:

(State-District)
Rep Earl Hilliard
(AL-07)
Rep Eni Faleomavaega
(AS-AL)

(NJ-10)
Rep Jerrold Nadler
(NY-08)
Rep Major Owens
(NY-11)
Rep Nydia M. Velazquez
(NY-12)
Rep Charles Rangel
(NY-15)
Rep Maurice Hinchey
(NY-26)
Rep John LaFalce
(NY-29)
Rep Marcy Kaptur
(OH-09)
Rep Dennis Kucinich
(OH-10)
Rep Louis Stokes
(OH-11)
Rep Sherrod Brown
(OH-13)
Rep Elizabeth Furse
(OR-01)
Rep Peter A. DeFazio
(OR-04)
Rep Chaka Fattah
(PA-02)
Rep William Coyne
(PA-14)
Rep Carlos A. Romero-Barcelo
(PR-AL)
Rep Robert C. Scott
(VA-03)
Rep Bernard Sanders
(VT-AL)
Rep James A McDermott
(WA-07)

Now the DSA no longer publishes the list - I guess they figured out it could be problematic for their comrades, err, members. But outside of Bernie Sanders, who has moved on to the Senate, and their blatant socialist behavior, who would have known that the "Who's Who" of committee memberships, let alone the Speakeress of the House, would be on the list! So what do DSA members espouse? Well, they have their seven pillars:

Dignified Work
Environmental Justice
Economic Redistribution
Democratic Participation
Community Empowerment
Global Non-Violence
Social Justice.

And who, you might ask is the DSA affiliated with? Why that would be the Socialist International. And what, I hear you ask in an increasingly exasperated tone, do THEY believe? Well, they are right out there in the open...read all about it on their website. Well, if you don't want to spend the time, you can read the abridged version - it's called the "Obama website."

The drift continues, the current carrying us to the edge of the abyss.
