Could Barack Obama be a Fabian Socialist?

These are legitimate questions to which American voters deserve answers.

Who is Barack Obama and what is a Fabian Socialist? No one seems to have a proper handle on this guy, yet millions of Americans are going to vote for a man about whom we have virtually no knowledge.

In the waning days towards November 4th, voters should ask what his connections are with Leftists and unrepentant Marxists. Does Obama share their objectives? Could he be a Fabian Socialist?

These are legitimate questions to which American voters deserve answers.

Since Obama’s papers are closed to the public, and he has little legislative record, we have to judge him by the companions he has kept for the last 20 years. So let’s have a look at him through the voices of his friends.

· Obama and Bill Ayers sat on several Boards in Chicago, including the Annenberg Challenge Fund that distributed monies to schools with strong Leftist leanings.

· His long association with the Church in Chicago where the radical pastor, Rev. Wright, preached Liberation Theology; Marxism wrapped in Christian jargon with a fiery anti-middle-class message, from the pulpit.

· In voicing the socioeconomic class theme, Michelle Obama, when asking her audience why they want to join the middle classes, reminds one of Karl Marx’s attacks on the bourgeois.

· And let’s not forget the radical Father Pfleger’s acid comments – Obama's Other Hateful Pastor – or Bernadine Dohrn: OBAMA: Bernadine Dohrn Overthrowing Capitalism 2007

The Fabians were an elite group of intellectuals who formed a semi-secret society for the purpose of bringing Socialism to the world. Whereas Communists wanted to establish Socialism quickly through violence and revolution, the Fabians preferred to do it slyly through propaganda and legislation.

The word Socialism was not to be used!

Instead, Fabians would speak of benefits for the people such as Welfare, Medical Care, Higher Wages, and Better Working Conditions. In this way, they planned to accomplish their objective without bloodshed and even without serious opposition.

Does any of this sound familiar so far?

Many Fabians kept close personal relationships with the Communists, because they had common goals – they only disagreed with their methods, as is written by Clement Attlee an avowed Fabian in his book “the Labour Party in Perspective” in 1937.

In 1945 Clement Attlee became Prime Minister of the UK and proceeded to nationalize and tightly regulate much of Britain’s industry.

As a consequence the UK became know as the “Sick Man of Europe” because of poor economic performance. For 30 years Britain’s economy languished in comparison to other major European economies.

It was only when Margaret Thatcher became Prime Minister and freed the economy that rapid growth returned to Britain and her standard of living outstripped other major European economies who, in the mean time, had embraced Socialism.

Pandit Nehru of India was a proud Fabian! India languished in poverty until the early 1990’s when Manmohan Singh became Prime Minister. Manmoham Singh had been Minister of Finance in V.P. Narasimha’s government. Singh jettisoned much of Socialism and modernized India and ever since India has shown fantastic growth.

Although we recognize that India is the largest democracy in the world, they have not liberated their economy to the extent that China has, hence the difference in growth and economy.

The American public is entitled to know if Obama intends to lead the U.S. in the same direction as Clement Attlee and Pundit Nehru. Will the imposition of a trillion dollars of more government spending and more burdensome government interference with private industry have the same effect as Nationalization?

Throughout history, when a system allows people to be rewarded for their work, there has been great productivity and abundance.

Ireland is an example of one of the most successful Capitalist countries in the world who has gone from the poorest per capita GDP in the European Union to the highest GDP per capita by throwing out any vestiges of Socialism.

By contrast, when Social Engineers gain control of government and restrict people from being rewarded by the fruits of their labor, productivity falls, and scarcity becomes the norm.

In the early 1930’s Sydney & Beatrice Webb, early adherents of Fabianism , http://www.spartacus.schoolnet.co.uk/TUwebbS.htm marched off the Soviet union and extolled what they saw … they said they saw the future and how beautiful it was. This was a time in Soviet history when six million Ukrainian peasants died as Stalin collectivized agriculture.

In the early 1900’s Sydney Webb was one of the founders of The London School of Economics, in the true tradition of Fabianism.

(John Kennedy attended The London School of Economics from 1935 to 1936!)

Snobbish intellectuals chose the name “Fabians” because they felt that only those trained in the classics would make the connection. It referred to the Roman General Fabius, who defeated Hannibal. http://www.kellscraft.com/romanhistorych5.html They believed that a small group of elitists (George Soros et al?) should lead society!

Why aren’t the media explaining why this possible connection could be very costly to the American people?

Would the elitist Obama sit down and have a cup of chai-latte with Timothy McVey?

“How do you tell a communist? Well, it's someone who reads Marx and Lenin. And how do you tell an anti-Communist? It's someone who understands Marx and Lenin.”

  The British fabian socialist realized long ago that socialism and communism are completly impossible without some form of free trade capitalism getting there first.
  
  British-American capitalism, a system based on inflation, mass consumption, debt, and government’s “priming the pump” when the system fell into crisis as it inevitably would—repeatedly.
  
  The Permanent Revolution in the hands of the Radical Capitalist Class, whose goal is the creation of a self-regulating, classless society (known as Communism) through the implementation of Free Market Economics based on Free Trade which will destroy domestic societies and economies and supply the world with a continual stream of unemployment as workers that are no longer are needed as the RCC strives to make production equal consumption.
  In short, the premise presented is very much a fact of life.

  Communism did not come into existence until July 1, 1997 when the UN's WTO, offspring of the GATT, all creations of the Fabian Society, removed tariffs on a global basis for semi-conductors, computers and telecommunications equipment.
  
  These articles of Free Trade signal the reality that Capitalism has developed to a technological level to allow itself to evolve into Communism. It is safe to claim, the real Conspiracy is:
  Free Trade Magic, Turning Capitalism into Communism.
  
  "If communism is as dead as lenin trosky and stalin who will recognize it when it is being implemented? Answer:No-one!
