Barack Obama, Socialist (Cont'd)
(By Andy McCarthy, National Review Online) - I raised this topic in a post yesterday morning based on some information that he been unearthed on Larry Johnson's website. Now, John Hinderaker at Powerline points to this report from a site called "Politically Drunk on Power." The report provides what appears to be documentary evidence that Obama was a member of the Chicago New Party, a creation of the Democratic Socialists of America — and adds that there has been a determined effort to purge the paper-trail. Another report has since been added, here, which adds (a) another New Party document claiming Obama as a member, and (b) evidence that Obama appeared in 1996 at a Youth Democratic Socialists townhall meeting.
As John concludes: "it appears clear that as of 1996, the New Party and its parent organization the Democratic Socialists of America considered Barack Obama to be their guy — one of a handful of avowed socialists running for office at any level in the United States. It strikes me that Obama has some explaining to do."

From National Review Online:
As Andy McCarthy notes [above], John Hinderaker has raised questions about Barack Obama's apparent affiliation with the New Party and the Democratic Socialists of America. John has posted documents purportedly showing that Obama was a New Party member when he ran for the Illinois state senate.
Democratic Socialists of America, New Party, William Ayers, Bernadine Dohrn, ACORN, Rev. Wright, Frank Marshall Davis, Tony Rezko — so many questions for the most liberal member of the senate, so little time.
