Bombshell interview: College friend says Obama was a "pure Marxist socialist"

We've often wondered exactly who Barack Obama was during his years in college. The president has kept all documents relating to this period under lock and key, so we don't have much to go on. But now, a courageous college friend of Obama's has stepped forward with shocking testimony. The president, this man says, was a "pure Marxist socialist."

His name is Dr. John C. Drew. He attended Occidental College at the same time as Obama and hung around in the same political circles. At the time Drew was a Marxist, though he would later become a Republican during the 1980s. Drew says while he occasionally doubted Marxism, Obama was convinced there would actually be a revolution of the underclass that would overthrow the government. During debates, Obama would defend Marxism very insistently. Drew also describes the young Obama as something of a metrosexual. Obama and his roommate were always dressed impeccably and would cruise around in a BMW. To this day, Drew still has no idea where that kind of money came from.

Let's allow Drew to speak for himself. Here are some mind-blowing quotes from his interview with Breitbart TV:

"My most vivid memory is how insistent he was on arguing a Marxist-Leninist point of view."

"He made a very principled, dedicated, impassioned argument that a real revolution was coming and in a sense we should all get onboard and prepare ourselves physically and emotionally for that revolution."

"He definitely saw America as the enemy. He believed that the ruling elite had rigged our economic system so that it caused people to be poor, and that it was immoral and it was wrong. And the only way you could tip things back so that we all could enjoy a more prosperous lifestyle was to redistribute the wealth."

"My sense of him is that he was a pure Marxist socialist."

"I think he's still a socialist."

Obama's getting even with James O'Keefe for that ACORN expose

There's something very sinister going on with the arrest of James O'Keefe. Barack Obama's government seems to have served up a galling miscarriage of justice.

O'Keefe is the journalist who sneaked a hidden camera into ACORN offices while posing as a pimp. Along with partner Hannah Giles, who was dressed as a prostitute, he tried to obtain tax benefits for his supposed prostitution agency. In almost all of the videos, the fine folks at ACORN were more than willing to help the pair break the law. O'Keefe was later arrested in what seemed to be another sting gone horribly wrong in which he and three others, disguised as telephone repairmen, tried to gain access to Sen. Mary Landreiu's office.

O'Keefe's latest actions were dumb and possibly criminal...but nothing compared to the way Obama's government has treated the case. Here's what we know so far.

-- After his arrest, O'Keefe sat in prison for 28 hours without access to an attorney, which is against the law.

-- During that time, the FBI "accidentally leaked" an affadavit about the case to the press. This is despite the fact that FBI documents are rarely leaked like this. Investigators could never put a case together if the public was being constantly alerted to their actions.

-- Almost immediately, the press began reporting that O'Keefe was accused of trying to wiretap Landrieu's phones, even though the affadavit made no mention of wiretap charges. A few newsmen called it "Watergate Jr." Countless newspapers later had to issue corrections.

-- Shortly after the scandal broke, the head prosecutor for the case, U.S. Attorney Jim Letten, suddenly recused himself for reasons unknown. Andrew Breitbart, who has sponsored much of O'Keefe's journalism in the past, accused Letten of leaking the affadavit.

-- Five days earlier, Sen. David Vitter, a Republican but an ally of Letten's, had met with Attorney General Eric Holder. Vitter had been concerned that the Justice Department would try to replace Letten. Vitter came out of the meeting saying he was satisfied that Letten would be allowed to keep his job.

Now today comes news that ACORN may be tied up in this twisted web. The criminal group has been circling a petition asking supporters to "chip-in $52 to help us keep the pressure on O’Keefe and his corporate paymasters." So ACORN is applying "pressure" in the O'Keefe case? We already know the group has a direct line to the White House through Political Director Patrick Gaspard, whose number is in Bertha Lewis' rolodex.

Meanwhile, Obama's Justice Department looms in the background, which has tripped over itself to hurt O'Keefe, but can't be bothered to look into ACORN or voter intimidation by the Black Panthers.

So what the hell is going on here? Was Letten allowed to keep his job after he leaked the affadavit? Did ACORN lean on the White House to persecute O'Keefe? And why was O'Keefe denied an attorney for more than a day? It all looks like an outrageous miscarriage of justice so Obama and company can get revenge on O'Keefe.
