In his own words, Alinsky fought commies

Your only hope is to move first, to beat the Communists at their own game, to show the people you're more interested in their living conditions than the contents of your collection plate. And not only will you get them back again by supporting their struggle, but when they win they'll be more prosperous and your donations will go up and the welfare of the [Catholic] Church will be enhanced. ~ Saul Alinsky [1]

This is not to say that he did not admit to having any involvement in with the communists.

I knew plenty of Communists in those days, and I worked with them on a number of projects. Back in the Thirties, the Communists did a hell of a lot of good work; they were in the vanguard of the labor movement and they played an important role in aiding blacks and Okies and Southern sharecroppers. Anybody who tells you he was active in progressive causes in those days and never worked with the Reds is a goddamn liar. Their platform stood for all the right things, and unlike many liberals, they were willing to put their bodies on the line. Without the Communists, for example, I doubt the C.I.O. could have won all the battles it did. I was also sympathetic to Russia in those days, not because I admired Stalin or the Soviet system but because it seemed to be the only country willing to stand up to Hitler. I was in charge of a big part of fund raising for the International Brigade and in that capacity I worked in close alliance with the Communist Party... But all in all, and despite my own fights with them, I think the Communists of the Thirties deserve a lot of credit for the struggles they led or participated in. Today the party is just a shadow of the past, but in the Depression it was a positive force for social change. A lot of its leaders and organizers were jerks, of course, but objectively the party in those days was on the right side and did considerable good.[1]

Back in the 1930's, if you were opposed to racism, sometimes the Communist Party was the best choice of few options.   Frank Oppenheimer joined to protest the draining of a pool after African Americans swam there for one day.  African Americans were thought to be more germ ridden.

Well, he was - he did join the Communist Party - which Robert did not - in the 1930s, and, you know, a lot of this research was new to me. There were living in Pasadena. He was at Caltech, where he was getting a PhD candidate, and his brother was there, as well. And it turned out that the Communist Party were the only people who were, for example, protesting the fact that the Pasadena public pool was drained - I think it was Thursday - after the blacks were allowed to swim there for their one day. And he was outraged that no one else was addressing racism. And, of course, the Spanish Civil War was the other thing that he thought nobody was addressing.

So he and his new wife, Jackie, who was part of the - she was more associated than he was. They joined the party. And, of course, they immediately thought it was ridiculous because for one thing, they asked him to choose an alias, which he just thought was dumb. So he chose Folsom - which is, of course, the prison, Folsom Prison - as a joke. And in all the FBI files, they have him as alias Frank Folsom. [2]

As with many people, it came back to bite him.

And the HUAC hearings and - you know, to make a long story short. As you know from the book, it's a little bit complicated how exactly he got in trouble. But the interesting thing was he did get fired. He did admit he was a communist. He did not testify against anybody else, which was something that other people didn't do. They actually didn't name names, but did not plead the 5th, either. He and Jackie both - his wife Jackie both talked completely openly about their experience, but refused to talk - so they were in contempt of court. Actually, Clifford Durr, which I didn't know was the only attorney who would take them on. [2]

Yep D'Souza, King was anti-colonial.

I am two hours into my seventeen hours of Martin Luther King Jr.'s speeches.  Two things have struck me.  One, King repeats himself a lot.  Two, he praises anti-colonialism a lot.  King's anti-colonialism brought this to mind.

Obama has little or nothing to do with the civil-rights movement. His roots are in Kenya, and he is shaped far more by anti-colonialism than by anything that Martin Luther King said or did. ~  Dinesh D'Souza [1]

Well, King thought colonialism and segregation were linked.[2]

For I can look out and see a great number, as John saw, marching into the great eternity, because God is working in this world, and at this hour, and at this moment. And God grants that we will get on board and start marching with God, because we got orders now to break down the bondage and the walls of colonialism, exploitation, and imperialism, to break them down to the point that no man will trample over another man, but that all men will respect the dignity and worth of all human personality. And then we will be in Canaan’s freedom land. ~ Martin Luther King Jr. [3]

Now we are all familiar with this old order that is passing away. We have lived with it and we have seen it in all of its dimensions. We have seen the old order in its international dimensions in the form of colonialism and imperialism. As you know, the vast majority of the peoples of our world live in Asia and Africa. For many, many years, people of these two continents were dominated politically, exploited economically, segregated and humiliated by some foreign power. But even there we notice change has taken place. I can remember when Mrs. King and I first journeyed to Africa to attend the independence celebration of the new nation of Ghana. We were very happy about the fact there were now eight independent countries in Africa. But since that night in March, 1957, some twenty-seven new independent nations have come into being in Africa. This reveals to us that the old order of colonialism is passing away, and the new order of freedom and human dignity is coming into being.  ~ Martin Luther King Jr. [4]  

The Scariest Quote about Black Genocide

“Before we saw the movie, I was pro-choice,” said Markita Eddy, a sophomore. But were she to get pregnant now, Ms. Eddy said, “it showed me that maybe I should want to keep my child no matter what my position was, just because of the conspiracy.” [1]

There are many better reasons to do the right thing than a strawman.

Michael Savage: "Most" Latinos In America Are "Illegal"

I just shared something on Facebook where a Republican appeared to confuse Puerto Ricans with illegal immigrants[1], and I thought about this. (I will source it all later)

1. African Americans are not declining.  Even with their disproportionate abortion rates they are still increasing in population.  I will write more on this later.
2. Most abortions go to white women.  Minorities are just that, minorities.  Whether it is subprime mortgages or abortions, it takes a lot for Caucasians to not be in the majority.
3. There is no "one drop" principle among Caucasians and the racial guidelines were set up this way on purpose.  Until recently, if you were half Caucasian, you were not Caucasian.  Now you can self identify and your parents can call you whatever they want.  
4. This racist talks about church and then says that most Latinos are illegal immigrants.  God help our country from people like him.  Do the math!  There are over 50 million Latinos/Hispanics and only 12 million illegal immigrants.[1][2]  Again Jesus loves the man, but I have trouble.  These are my children he is talking about.
