Audio: Socialist Congresswoman says People Don't Deserve to Keep 'all their money'

Registered member of the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) caucus, Rep. Jan Schakowsky (D-IL) appeared on the Don Wade and Roma radio show in Chicago this week. The hosts played the clip from the recent Republican debate in which a young man asked the candidates how much of every dollar he deserves to keep. They then asked Schakowsky to answer that question. Her reaction was quite predictable but it was, nonetheless, refreshing to watch a socialist on the defensive.

VIDEO: SOCIALIST CONGRESSWOMAN CALLED ON HER SOCIALISM

First, a backdrop before checking out this awesome video. In 2009, Rep. Jan Schakowsky (D-IL) was discovered to have been one of 70 members of congress to also be official members of the Democratic Socialists of America caucus. Another aspect to keep in mind is that Schakowsky's district is heavily Jewish and she has run on a pro-Israel platform in the past. Her opponent is a conservative named Joel Pollack.

In a debate on October 17th, U.S. policy toward Israel was a central theme. Attendance was high yet media coverage, save for citizen journalists, was virtually non-existent. Why? Could it be because Schakowsky's alleged pro-Israel stance is in stark contrast to her being a professed progressive? It was progressive groups who were behind the Gaza flotilla for example. This video report from Founding Bloggers is a must see.

As a side note, Schakowsky was also one of the four names given by Rahm Emanuel to Rod Blagojevich as requested replacements for Obama's Senate seat. The other three were Jesse Jackson Jr., Dan Hynes, and Tammy Duckworth. In light of Obama's treatment of Israel, the Schakowsky choice is interesting in light of this video report.

AUDIO: REGISTERED SOCIALIST CONGRESSWOMAN CALLS TEA PARTY EXTREME

Rep. Jan Schakowsky (D-IL) is one of 70 members of congress who are registered members of the Democratic Socialists of America caucus. That doesn't stop her from going on the Stephanie Miller show to label conservatives who want to restore America to a nation founded on the Constitution. She even has come up with a new name for Tea Party members who believe in the Tenth Amendment to the Constitution.

In Jan's world, they're called "Tenthers" and should be considered "extreme." When you couple her being a registered socialist with her disdain for the Constitution, it makes sense that she'd be a little worked up about it.

One more thing on Schakowsky. Not only is she a registered socialist with the DSA caucus but she was one of Obama's four choices given to Blago to fill his senate seat after Valerie Jarrett was out of the running. She's also the woman in this now infamous rant about health care.

Remember, Schakowsky believes the Tea Party is extreme....

VIDEO: ED SCHULTZ SAYS REPUBLICANS = JANE FONDA

Where does one begin? Seriously. Whack job liberal Ed Schultz actually blames the Republicans for undermining Obama's effort to land the Olympic Games for Chicago and compares their doing so to what Jane Fonda did in Vietnam. I wonder how that comparison makes Vietnam veterans feel. Doesn't Schultz diminish their sacrifice by comparing the two?

And I wonder how Hanoi Jane feels about being thrown under the leftwing bus and turned into red meat for leftwing buzzards.

All that aside, this is a quintessential example of how badly the left hates losing, no matter what sport they're playing. They are utterly incapable of looking within and taking stock of themselves or their agenda. Hey Ed, maybe it was the fact that Chicago is the 2nd most corrupt city in America.

One thing I didn't hear Ed bring up was a report by a Danish newspaper, BERLINGSKE, which puts the blame squarely where it belongs - on Obama himself.

The explanations are many. The former Danish IOC member Kai Holm says to Berlingske that he believes that it is due to disrespect. Professor of sport history at the University of Copenhagen Hans Bonde suggests presidential arrival at the last minute and neglected personal lubricant of IOCs members.

At Chicago kicked out so early shows to me that Barack Obama does not understand the psychology of the IOC, said Hans Bonde.

There you have it. Straight from the mouth of a former IOC member. I don't know what on earth makes him think he's qualified to say such things. Doesn't he know that it's the Republicans' fault?

Expressing this view even further is none other than Congressman from Chicago, Jan Schakowsky (at the end of the clip), who actually points to Rush Limbaugh as the reason for Obama's failure.

Utterly shameless. CLICK HERE for the video.

VIDEO: ANOTHER OBAMA LACKEY UNHINGED

I guess when we see pro-Obamacare politicians act like this when they have a Super Majority in the Senate, it should tell us they're afraid of something. They're coming un-glued. Here's Representative Jan Schakowsky (D-IL) on August 24th of this year talking about tackling the immigration issue after all of our health care woes are solved....

Oh, also note the implication of her words about big mean America treating illegals unfairly. Hey Jan, how about the Mexican government start feeling a little heat from the American congress? Then again, such a scenario would require something you don't have - GUTS.

This woman is WHACKED OUT.



"Unhinged Jan" gave us the now infamous video that showed her salivating over the prospect of destroying private insurance companies. She summed it up quite nicely when she said, "This is not a principled fight. This is a fight about strategy for getting there (gov't-run health care) and I BELIEVE WE WILL!"
