lol. What many over at RevLeft have to say about the CPUSA,

The CPUSA's position in politics has been null and void since the 1950's, when they dumbed down their politics for McCarthy and gang.
They are revisionist liberals. They are not revolutionary communists.
Irrelevant.

Still, one million dollar renovations, lattes and macbooks? Perhaps they should have their next meeting at the local WholeFoods. What a bunch of pompous, lifestylist fools.
And some talks on Obama,
http://www.revleft.com/vb/obamas-ties-big-t80080/index.html?t=80080To quote a specific person,
In almost all bourgeois "democracies" there exist the "changing" hope which is filled with favorable rhetoric. The hope, is more than usually, a candidate from the capitalist class. Obama's rhetoric as history and his own statements show that he is no friend of the working-class. Voting for the "lesser evil" has been a excuse utilized for decades which has actually prolonged the capitalist system because there is always an excuse for each election. There is always a "lesser evil" which will follow similar policies as the other capitalist candidate.
Obama receives money from the same capitalists that fund Hillary Clinton and John McCain. Some of the ruling class members who fund Obama are top Exelon (which gave him more than $70,000) officials like Frank Clark & John W. Rogers Jr., Goldman Sachs, JPMorgan Chase, Kirkland & Ellis & Rich Tarplin from Chevron. He has also received more than $200,000 from the oil and gas industry (most from the executives). I also remember reading somewhere that he received money from Warren Buffett.
On healthcare he rejects universal healthcare because he claims the employees of the health care industry will lose their jobs, such as BlueCross. And why wouldn't he oppose it? Why simply because in reality he'll lose his health care profits! Obama bought more than $50,000 in stocks in a pharmaceutical company.
When it comes to foreign policy, Obama has demonstrated that he supports the Free-Trade agreement. Heck, he said he won't give the Colombian peon, Uribe the agreement due to the murderous history that follows the Colombian capitalist state, the point is he rejects to free trade as if it was a positive gift. He has called Hugo Chavez a "dictator" despite Chavez being elected various times democratically through the institutions of the capitalist state and calls Cuban "dissidents" who are usually paid by the U.S., "heroes". One of the most revealing aspects of Obama's true intentions is his foreign policy adviser. Who exactly is his adviser? The ultra-reactionary Zbigniew Brzezinski who played a role in funding the counter-revolutionary Mujahidden who were trying to overthrow the Saur Revolution. Brzezinski also constructed the "Afghan Trap" which was a plan to draw the Soviets into the war by making the Soviets feel pressured.
Obviously there are many more reasons why Obama is not different from Clinton or McCain but this is the general gist. Also the whole ideological division of capitalist parties is a mere hoax, more than 25% of U.S. senators and congressmen have invested in companies contracted by the Department of Defense. This percentage includes Democrats (Hillary sold her defense industry stocks in May 2007) and Republicans who are making more than $700 million a day.
Like all capitalist candidates, they talk and talk but then continue to do what they're supposed to do and that is to maintain the ruling class in power.
