CDC official called Obama
Is Obama really a Marxist? There are many talks about him being a marxist but what exactly makes him a communist? He looks like a typical leftist in my opinion (though original communists were lefties too). Is there even any difference between liberals and communists (in its original sense). Communists were striving for total equality and refusal of the traditional way of life. Leftists are doing the same thing.
 
He's not a Marxist. Hell, he's not all that liberal. He is a crappy president though.
 
Looks like there's gonna be at least two job openings in the Federal government, both at the CDC.

Maybe even worse than that, the CDC, I think may still be part of the Coast Guard.

I don't know that firing these two is justified or even possible. What did they do wrong? I don't know that this is any more punishable than if they had sent a couple of emails back and forth concerning plans for the weekend.

They are part of the Uniformed Services of the Federal Government. They made "disparaging" remarks regarding the Commander-In-Chief using official communications.

They're gone.

The article doesn't claim that either is a PHS officer. How are you so sure?

There are seven groups that are part of the Uniformed Services of The United States.
1) US Army
2) US Navy
3) US Marine Corps
4) US Air Force
5) US Coast Guard
6) National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), and
7) US Public Health Service (National Institutes of Health and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention)

Other than NOAA, they have all been around for a long time, including the US PHS:

Look, I hope they are not going to get fired - I agree with them... to a point. But, given the vindictive and hateful way the administration has treated others that do not agree with them, I would doubt that they are safe.

lol.... no.

Anyone who says so, or who classifies Obama as a "socialist," are utterly clueless.

However, I'm not surprised that bureaucrats are not all fans of Obama or his policies. Civil servants are mostly lifers, so their opinions aren't going to change based on who is President.

That said: If the worst thing Judicial Watch can find in 3000 emails is two civil servants taking cheap shots at the President, then I doubt they've got anything remotely substantial. While I support transparency, I also support pointing out that JW is basically full of it. ;)

It's certainly true that you can be a PHS officer and work at the CDC, but not required. I checked briefly and the analyst job is advertised to the general public (though a PHS officer may apply). The guy with the logistics position, however, seems likely to be an officer, and therefore subject to ucmj as you said.

Are all emails between individuals using their given accounts considered "official communications?" The ucmj shouldn't apply for a purely private conversation, and I know that the army, at least, allows use of official email for personal communications, so long as they are very short.

Yes, they are the official links - and in the emails they refer to Obama as the Commander (as in the CinC). Here's the link: CDC Official Calls Obama Worst President

If nothing else, they should be put in the running for the dumbest official actions ever taken award.

Irony....YOU supporting " transparency ". You support a administration that likes to delete E-mails and lose or " destroy " hard drives.

I don't think you support transparency at all. I think you're just a glaring hypocrite.

Now, considering the complete lack of transparency in the " most transparent administration " ever, Judicial watch has done a fine job of exposing just how much of a low life party the Democrats have become.

We're lucky ( Americans ) to have them.
 
A Marxist? Maybe.
The biggest domestic terrorist this country has ever seen? Absolutely!
 
FLASH NEWS: CDC official turns out to be a fascist.

I won't wait up to read that on Fox "News."

He is. He has no loyalty to America. Marxists believe in no borders.
 
So do Christians.

Essentially Christianity is a one world ideology, yes, but you won't see many Christians who've even thought about it.

Marxism/thought police/political correctness -whatever you want call them- are very vocal about open borders.

Another thing is, Christianity is one world for reasons of inclusiveness. Marxism is one world for reasons exploitative.

Your summation makes this nationalist go :yawn:

Indeed. He undermined American society more than any other president with his Obamacore and Obamacare. Maybe he is not a communist but he definitely turns America into a totalitarian liberal-controlled state.

I think the fact that he got elected shows that earlier presidents did worse.

Honestly, I was embarrassed when he got it. It was very racist of me actually and it didn't take all that long till I stopped being embarrassed.

I really can't work out if he's bad or less bad, but it's not about him anyway. The West is finished. It's not the end of the world.

We've been on the road of totalitarian fascism since before Obama. And Obamacare isn't much different than Medicare Part D that Bush put out. Bush gave handouts to the pharmaceutical companies, and Obama gave handouts to the insurance companies. Same thing. This isn't socialism or communism, it's corporate capitalism. It's the economic structure of a fascist state.

Yes, it is surely the economic structure of a fascist state. However we have implemented many socialist policies. America is turning into a strange mix of corporate capitalism, socialist welfare system and liberal fascist ideology.
