FreedomGuru: Obama Guilty of 'Social Socialism'

She said she wished President Bush would have used the opportunity of a unified nation after the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks to make the country energy independent or provide universal health care.

Yeah health care will be needed when the terroists start killing us all. These leftists are terminally stupid.

Bearach O'Bama is making a pitch for the Creationist Conservative vote.

And one day the shoe may be on the other foot, it may be you the gov't steals from because others demand it.

Government steals from us all, as long as it doesn't make a profit.

[The Ghost of FReepers Past]

Not really. Government steals from only half of us. I think it is officially less than half of us.

Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama accused the Bush administration on Tuesday of pursuing a policy of "social Darwinism" that leaves every man and woman struggling.

"It's a strategy that we've seen this administration pursue over the last six years, that basically says government has no role to play in making sure that America is prosperous for all people and not just some,"

Laughable. The gov't returns some tax money back to the workers, the economy booms and this is the best the Rats can do? It's pitch dark at noon?

of course it's pathetic..but he's talking to the Dem base now..running hard to the left..

If Darwin's evolution theories had any substance -- Obama wouldn't have slipped into existence.

Okay, I was being flip. Actually Bush does adhere to Social Darwinism. That's good thing. Callous, for sure, but very practical. (Being rich is a form of natural selection. There are simply not enough resources for everyone.)

I understand that view, but by stealing from one they steal from all, those recipients of government largess
are they not accomplices in a crime? Are they not responsible for the actiona made in their behalf?

Money from some, honor and independence from the rest,
all lose in the end.

[The Ghost of FReepers Past]

Oh I see. Yes in that sense they steal from all.

[siunevada]

government research and investment is what has made advances possible in the United States.

Smile, Senator!

But I thought the liberals *love* Darwin...
