Comrade

Comrades Barack Obama, Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi and Russian President Dmitry Medvedev

"My new comrade."

That's what Russian president Dmitry Medvedev called Barack Obama.

Heck, we've known his as Comrade Obama for some time.

I'm just waiting on a bailout bill to include a provision for a new song to replace the Star Spangled Banner.

Hitler, Stalin, Chavez: Negroes one and all

It's amazing what you can find out by reading columns by liberals.

For instance, I read a column by Lewis W. Diuguid, a columnist for the Kansas City Star. He wrote a piece recently where he said that "socialist" is "code word for black."

Imagine that.

"Socialist" means "Black."

Which means that Adolf Hitler, former leader of Germany's National Socialist German Worker's (Nazi) Party was Black.

And Joseph Stalin, former leader of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR) was Black.

And Hugo Chavez, leader of the Partido Socialista Unido de Venezuela (United Socialist Party of Venezuela), is Black.

And Barack Obama, the socialist who is the Democratic Party nominee for President of the United States, is Black. Oh, wait. That I knew.

Still, somebody needs to recall a bunch of history textbooks and fix those pictures.

Thank you, Mr. Diuguid, for setting us all straight.
