Beck and Jonah Goldberg discuss Obama's "revolutionary art" VIDEO

I post this because this is clearly going to be one of the themes from the right propaganda machine

Yesterday, CNN Headline News host Glenn Beck joined in on the right-wing meme that Sen. Barack Obama (D-IL) may be a Marxist. As proof, Beck showed his guest, National Review contributing editor Jonah Goldberg, some things he had “found on the Internet.” These “things” included a poster of Obama that looked like “revolutionary art” and one of his campaign workers allegedly with a Che Guevara flag.

But perhaps the most ridiculous moment came when Beck pulled out a hat one of his listeners had sent him. The winter hat had earflaps and a red star, similar to Soviet insignia. It also said, “Obama ‘08.” Watch it:

As ThinkProgress first reported, former House speaker Tom DeLay also yesterday went on Mike Gallagher’s radio show and said, “I have said publicly, and I will again, that unless he proves me wrong, he is a Marxist.”

In April, after Obama made his now-infamous “bitter” remarks, Weekly Standard editor Bill Kristol claimed in his New York Times column that it was a reiteration of “Marx’s famous statement about religion.” Karl Rove agreed, calling the comments “almost Marxian.” Sen. Joe Lieberman (I-CT) told Fox News Radio that it was “a good question” to ask if Obama is “a Marxist,” though he said he would “hesitate” to call him one himself.

Haven't heard "marxist" for years. Ah! the old time fear mongering!
Gimme that old time religion

gimme that old time religion
Like Ronnie used to have!

4. Lieberman would hesitate to call Obama a Marxist? Why is that?

Cause Obama would grind him into the floor?
