Obama Marxists Urge Revolution Against "Oppressive" U.S. Regime

Just in time for the 4th of July, the Barack Obama "community bloggers" are urging a revolution against the "oppressive" U.S. regime:

Obama Marxists

Marxists, socialists and communists have created a safe space online to congregate, exchange ideas – including a stated revolution against the U.S. "oppressive" regime – and support their favored presidential candidate.

Their meeting spot? Sen. Barack Obama's official campaign website, which allows registered users to form groups and post content in online "community" blogs.

One popular community group on the Illinois senator's official MyObama website calls itself
"Marxists/Socialists/Communists for Obama."

"This group is for self-proclaimed Marxists/Communists/Socialists for the election of Barack Obama to the Presidency. By no means is he a true Marxist, but under Karl Marx's writings we are to support the party with the best interests of the mobilization of the proletariat," states the groups charter.

"We support Barack Obama because he knows what is best for the people!" exclaims the group's online creed.

And on Obama's site, the declared Marxist, communist and socialist bloggers rant against such varied targets as Republicans, capitalism and the Fox News Channel. According to author profiles, the bloggers range from registered voters to underage high school students who state they are looking to foment revolt.
Read the whole thing.

The "Marxists/Socialists/Communists for Obama" blog
is here.

However, the group's post, "
The Nature of the Proletariat" (urging "revolution against the oppressive U.S. regime"), has been removed.
