The Socialist Behind Romneycare?

~ The Rebel ~ 2012/08/07 16:12:22
A new report from researcher Trevor Loudon names one of the main architects of Romneycare in Massachusetts as a member of an international socialist movement. John E. McDonough, a former Ted Kennedy staffer who also played a significant role in passing Obamacare, is identified by Loudon as a former chair of the Boston chapter of the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA), a pro-Marxist group that is affiliated with the Socialist International.

McDonough is now a professor at the Harvard School of Public Health.

Loudon is the blogger from New Zealand who broke the stories of Frank Marshall Davis being Obama’s communist mentor, and Van Jones having a communist background after his appointment as Obama’s “Green Jobs Czar.”

Loudon’s new report, which is potentially embarrassing to Mitt Romney as he tries to prove his conservative credentials, is headlined, “How DSA Marxists Influenced Health Policies for Both Major Presidential Candidates.”

McDonough acknowledged to AIM, “…between the late 1970s and the early 1980s, I was a member of (first), the Democratic Socialist Organizing Committee, and then Democratic Socialists of America as it became in the early 1980s. I left the group in 1982 or 1983. I also served as chair of the Boston chapter for a couple of years.”

    Romneycare? Obamacare? Same stuff. We need Medicare for all. Mitt's distancing himself from his former positions creates a web of falsehoods which will ultimately undo him, but maybe not.

    Kennedy was a terrible person and a horrible socialist legislation writer, No child left behind, Obamacare and evidently Romneycare, and more than likely any others. The democrats legislation passed Romneycare and Romney signed it, big whoop. It does not mean the rest of the country wants Obamacare.
