Truman started the first undeclared war on them.
Kennedy started the second undeclared war on them. Johnson expanded the second undeclared war.
The line ends there because the 1960's radically altered the democrat party.

Yes but it was way before JFK. A member of the Socialist party commented that they had become redundant as the Democrats were standing for all the ideals of the Socialists. (who are in truth quazi - Communists) That was during the FDR administration. Oh and by the way, when are people going to realize that Communism and Socialism don't work? Talk to a Russian for God's sake! The Chinese have even gone Capitalist in their own bizarre way.

They go into denial every time it's mentioned...and then they whine about how bad the "other" party is with some extreme viewpoint. They spend there entire political lives defined by their cult like perception of it...pathetic. The CBC goes to Cuba and talks about how nice everything and everybody was. 20 years ago, they would have been shunned for visiting a nation that was under embargo and sponsored terrorism. Funny how they waited until the newly elected Big Ears got 'em in.

yes
as you can see even today the trotskys are still mad about being kicked out
this is the secret in the US---they (democratic socialist) will talk about fighting communist dictatorship, etc., they are **now** saying, oh, the poor cubans, but they do not believe in our US Constitutional republic but trotsky socialism, or a derivative of it, never ending "revolution" for the world, they get in bed with anybody!!!!
but they are all born of Russian Revolution
edit: so always when someone ---either democrat or republican---- talks about "liberating" or "bringing democracy to...." listen carefully they may have a different definition than you do!!!

They are now heading for communism because Obama is in Office

Yes...but now the liberals have hijacked the party, and they are all afraid to be called racist or homophobes. So they bow down, as their Messiah has done.

We still do. We just have the advantage of actually knowing what communism is.
