I nominate this from a long ago episode of The Simpsons.
The Simpsons episode where Lisa gets dance lessons...
Lisa: But my parents are counting on seeing me dance! And I’ve worked ever so hard. Vicki: I’m sorry, Lisa, but giving everyone an equal part when they’re clearly not equal is called what, again, class? Class: Communism! Vicki: That’s right. And I didn’t tap all those Morse-code messages to the Allies till my shoes filled with blood to just roll out the welcome mat for the Reds. -The Simpsons, “Last Tap Dance In Springfield”
"The bombing begins in 5 minutes." ~Ronald Reagan
It's got to be Reagan's line (paraphrasing):
A communist is someone who reads Marx and Lenin. A capitalist is someone that understands Marx and Lenin.
I love that guy!
Hollywood's stars, who are the biggest pushers of this type of equality, will have sick looks and be shocked when the support actors and others in the flick/gig want equal shares of the profits. Think of the look on Babbling Streisand's face when each member of the show want pay and accomodations equal to hers. Fact is, liberals think they are above all that.
What's the difference between a liberal and a communist?
A communist knows what he's doing.
"The inherent vice of capitalism is the unequal sharing of the blessings. The inherent blessing of socialism is the equal sharing of misery."
Winston Churchill
The man asks what happens in capitalist hell. He is told that each day they pour boiling oil on you and poke you with hot coals.
He then asks about communist hell.
"The same thing, except most days they are out of oil and coal."
"You and Ike don't have to get your hands dirty. Just give me the word, and I'll start a war with those Commie bastards."
George Patton, 1945
(I'm sure someone will correct me...tried it from memory)
I don't have one about communism but a friend from Newfoundland regarding Canada's socialized medicine says:
"It's great as long as you don't get sick."
Wolverines!
Communism possesses a language which every people can understand--its elements are hunger, envy, and death.
Author: Heinrich Heine
Bingo.
I was going to post that one.
The more I learn about Churchill,the more I like and admire him!
JFK,West Berlin,June 1963
Communism - Just waiting for the right 3rd world dictator to come along and prove it can work.....waiting.....waiting.....waiting.....
