DSA Marxists Fundraise for John Conyers August 27, 2012 By Trevor Loudon gulagbound.com Because of redistricting, veteran Michigan congressman John Conyers is facing his first tough race in years. Conyers is a ranking member and former chair of the powerful House Judiciary Committee, serving more than twenty term in Congress. He is the second most senior member of the House and dean of the far left Congressional Black Caucus. He was also a founding member of the DSA initiated Congressional Progressive Caucus and was an original member of President Nixon’s Enemies List. Conyers has decades old ties to both the Communist Party USA and Democratic Socialists of America. Not wanting to lose such a valuable ally in Congress, the Michigan DSA Marxists are openly fundraising and campaigning for their man. Democratic Socialists of America Political Action Committee held a fundraising reception for Representative John Conyers, Jr. at Colors Restaurant on Sunday, May 27th 2012, from 2-5 PM. Guest of honor was longtime DSA affiliate Jim Hightower — noted progressive radio commentator and editor of the Hightower Lowdown. Co-hosts were David Bullock, President of the Detroit branch of Operation PUSH, DSAer Tim Carpenter, Executive Director of Progressive Democrats of America, DSAer David Hecker, President of the American Federation of Teachers-Michigan and Marjorie Mitchell, Executive Director of the DSA dominated Michigan Universal Health Care Access Network. From the Greater Detroit Democratic Socialists of America July 2012 newsletter: As you may know, Congressman Conyers faces a serious primary challenge in a new district. In the past, he has never needed to raise much money for his campaigns. This time is different. We anticipate significant negative advertising will be directed against him. He will require sufficient resources with which to respond. John Conyers is an icon to the progressive community. He is the only elected official ever to be endorsed by Reverend Martin Luther King, Jr. As the ranking member of the House Judiciary Committee, he opposed the Patriot Act and has been a staunch defender of civil liberties. He is the sponsor of the Medicare for All Act (HR 676), a single-payer health insurance bill which would provide comprehensive health care benefits ton all Americans while simultaneously containing health care costs. He is the sponsor of the Humphrey-Hawkins 21st Century Full Employment and Training Act (HR 870), a bill which would use a tax on financial transactions to create a national jobs program aimed at producing three to four million new jobs per year in infrastructure improvement, social services, and green energy. In short, Congressman Conyers shares our politics. Yes, John Conyers does share DSA’s politics, which is why, hopefully, this will be comrade Conyers’ last term in office.

2012.senateconservatives.com Conservative Jeff Flake won the Republican Arizona senate Primary Tuesday and thus becomes the eighth Conservative US Senate candidate supported by Senator Jim DeMint's Senate Conservative Fund. The four recent additions include Deb Fischer (Nebraska), George Allen (Virginia), Tom Smith (Pa), and Don Bongino (Md). The other three supported candidates are Ted Cruz (Texas), Josh Mandel (Ohio), and Richard Mourdock (Indiana). All eight are vetted by DeMint and adhere to the following: SCF Candidate Checklist Balance the Budget Congress must be forced to cut spending. SCF candidates will support a constitutional amendment to balance the federal budget without raising taxes. Repeal ObamaCare President Obama's health care takeover is set to destroy American medicine and bankrupt our country. SCF candidates will repeal it. Secure the Borders The federal government has failed to enforce our nation's immigration laws. SCF candidates will seal the borders and oppose all forms of amnesty. Defend the 2nd Amendment The 2nd Amendment protects our ability to keep and bear arms. SCF candidates will oppose all efforts to eliminate or restrict this right. Stop Corporate Bailouts Bailouts force taxpayers to reward failure and punish success. SCF candidates will stop bailouts altogether and force corporations to compete. Ban Earmarks Congressional earmarks are a gateway drug to higher spending. SCF candidates will ban earmarks and break Washington's addiction to pork. Establish Term Limits Our country is being destroyed by career politicians. SCF candidates will support a constitutional amendment establishing congressional term limits. Protect Human Life Human life is precious and it must be protected. SCF candidates will stop all taxpayer funding for abortion. Of the eight..........Cruz, Fischer, Flake, and Mourdock have excellent chances of winning. Allen and Mandel have an even chance.........Smith has an outside chance and Bongino has little chance of winning. But.....6/8 would be a great victory for Conservatives..........5/8 more likely and still good. I believe the best place for contributions is to Mandel, Allen, and Mourdock.....in that order. CONTRIBUTE NOW!
