Over at the new “Breitbart.com,” they have posted a story written by Andrew Breitbart shortly before his death last week, in which he began what he called the work of “vetting” Barack Obama – work the liberal media has been unwilling to do.

Breitbart reveals Obama’s love for far-Left radical Saul Alinsky – so much so that as an Illinois State Senator in 1998, Barack Obama’s name appears on a poster for the play that praised the life of radical Saul Alinsky. Obama appeard on stage after the play as part of a discussion panel on the life and work of Alinsky.

Breitbart reveals some of the bizarre material in the play that Barack Obama felt very comfortable associating himself with:

BREITBART.COM (Andrew Breitbart): . . .So, what’s in the play? It truly is a love song to Alinsky. In the first few minutes of the play, Alinsky plays Moses – yes, the Biblical Moses – talking to God. The play glorifies Alinsky stealing food from restaurants and organizing others to do the same, explaining, “I saw it as a practical use of social ecology: you had members of the intellectual community, the hope of the future, eating regularly for six months, staying alive till they could make their contributions to society.”

In an introspective moment, Alinsky rips America: “My country … ‘tis of whatthehell / And justice up a tree … How much can you sell / What’s in it for me.” He grins about manipulating the Christian community to back his programs. He talks in glowing terms about engaging in Chicago politics with former Mayor Kelly. He rips the McCarthy committee, mocking, “Everyone was there, when you think back – Cotton Mather, Hester Prynn, Anne Hutchinson, Tom Paine, Tom Jefferson … Brandeis, Holmes … Gene Debs and the socialists … Huey Long … Imperial Wizards of all stripes … Father Coughlin and his money machine … Daffy Duck, Elmer Fudd … and a kicking chorus of sterilized reactionaries singing O Come, All Ye Faithful …”

And Alinsky talks about being the first occupier – shutting down the O’Hare Airport by occupying all the toilet stalls, using chewing gum to “tie up the city, stop all traffic, and the shopping, in the Loop, and let everyone at City Hall know attention must be paid, and maybe we should talk about it.” As Alinsky says, “Students of the world, unite! You have nothing to lose but your juicy fruit.”

The play finishes with Alinsky announcing he’d rather go to Hell than Heaven. Why? “More comfortable there. You see, all my life I’ve been with the Have-Nots: here you’re a Have-Not if you’re short of money, there you’re a Have-Not if you’re short of virtue. I’d be asking more questions, organizing them. They’re my kind of people – Hell would be Heaven for me.”

That’s The Love Song of Saul Alinsky. It’s radical leftist stuff, and it revels in its radical leftism.

And that’s Barack Obama, our president, on the poster. . . Read More

I wonder when the liberal media will ask Obama if agrees with Saul Alinsky’s characterization of America? Will they ask him if THIS is the “Change you can believe in” he was talking about all along?

    You might be surprised at the conservatives who also subscribe to Alinsky’s  methodologies:

    While on the left, names like Cesar Chavez, Jesse Jackson and Ralph
    Nader subscribed to Alinsky’s teachings, the conservative non-profit
    organization FreedomWorks, which is one of several groups involved in
    organizing Tea Party protests, says the group gives Alinsky’s Rules for
    Radicals to its top leadership members. Former Republican House Majority
    Leader Dick Armey also gives copies of Alinsky’s book Rules for
    Radicals to Tea Party leaders  In the wake of the devastating Detroit
    riots of the summer of 1967, Michigan Gov. George Romney — a Republican —
    met  Saul Alinsky to discuss the grievances of the urban black poor.
     ”I think you ought to listen to Alinsky,” Romney told his white allies.
     Respected conservative writer William F. Buckley Jr. called him “very
    close to being an organizational genius.”
