This one’s is a former member of Students For A Democratic Society, (the radical ’60′s group that transformed into Weatherman) and he’s the webmaster for a blog called Progressives For Obama, according to Aaron Klein at WND:
He didn’t bomb the Capitol or rob banks like his contemporaries in the Weather Underground.But Carl Davidson, a former vice president of the Students for a Democratic Society who traveled to Cuba to meet with Fidel Castro and still praises the dictator today, is another proud radical for Barack Obama, serving faithfully as webmaster for “Progressives for Obama.”
Take a look at some of the names in the sidebar at Progressives For Obama. You’ll see some familiar ones:
He joins his old SDS collaborator, Tom Hayden, who traveled with Jane Fonda to meet with Vietnamese communist leaders during the height of the Vietnam war. In fact, Fonda, too, Hayden’s ex-wife, is part of Progressives for Obama.
Like all good radicals, Davidson is enamored with Fidel Castro:
On his blog, Davidson talks about meeting Castro in 1968: “He is a remarkable man, with a photographic memory, wide knowledge and keen insights. Cuba will change after him, though, as brother Raul is already looking into the socialist market economy in China and Vietnam, but will undoubtedly make any reforms ‘in the Cuban way.’ We should all wish Fidel and Cuba well, and double our voices against the blockcade. (sic)
Davidson and Hayden take credit for launching the “Venceremos Brigade,” hundreds of young Americans who were covertly transported to Cuba to help harvest sugar cane and mingle with the communist revolutionary leadership in Havana.
I know, I know…guilt by association, again.
Obama can’t help it that every known radical, commie, and terrorist sympathizer in the country is supporting him.

A “high profile” bus with a rather lengthy clearence from the ground will be needed for all the victims that will be thrown under said bus. It’s getting very difficult for BHO to remove his foot from the large steaming pile of feces growing larger by the minute.

Nah- I think the wheels are coming off the bus, it’s headed for the shoulder, there’s no guardrail, and it’s a long way down.
