All you have to remember that Beckel was Walter Mondale’s campaign manager

I can see your age hanging out. The MNS is over the heads of most of the subscribers.

In the first line he states that Obama won’t bring socialism to America. And in the next two lines he defines EXACTLY what socialism is and tries to say the people WANT it.

They just will avoid calling it socialism. They successfully avoid calling Obama who he is, too. Socialism is socialism whether you call such or not. They will impose it on us, but give a little Prozac in a form of some soothing terminology, so we will not feel all that awful.

An Obama presidency means we press the pedal to the floor on the legislative agenda of the Democratic Congress; McCain would at least provide us a brake pedal.

An Obama presidency means we get more Federal judges who legislate from the bench. Courts in Canada and the UK consider the Shari'a traditions of their residents who claim to adhere to them. Will we follow those nations on that road to hell?

These question have been bothering me.

I love this crap. Just keep showing him everyday and talking about him as if he already were President. It will only make people focus on him and when that “light” is cast on him maybe the people will see the truth.

Beckel is such a waste of space. He was involved with two of the most pathetic campaigns of ALL time and he wants to give advice?!?!

Go to Cuba and live out the rest of your days you fat Larry King!

“That way, when the “civilian” authorities come looking for your (legally registered, but presumed stolen) weapons, you can say, that you cannot produce them.”

Any “civilian” authority who comes for my weapon is going to get it....in spades. I don’t give a damn what anyone thinks of that.

Lefties and RINOS for Sunday! YAY!

[Maine Mariner]

Just as the true Messiah brought Lazarus from the dead.

You got me on that one. Didn't know that they were legal for viewing considering the social environment we live in.

“Socialism is dead, and Barack Obama knows it,” he explains. “He would, however, favor a very strong government hand in regulating the economy, both because he believes that government knows best and because that means more subsidies and jobs to hand out to supporters, and more votes and PAC contributions to get in return.”

Translation:

Socialism is dead, but Obama will continue implementing socialist strategies....

[Loyalist]

Way, way, off base.

No one is enthused by McCain, but people will vote for him out of fear of Obama.

Let’s be realistic, however: McCain cannot win this election because he has nothing left to offer other than not being Obama.

Moreover, he doesn’t understand the existential threat that Obama represents to the United States as a free, constitutional republic.

Perhaps he can’t understand it, because he believes, as most do, that the United States can’t be brought down.

[Kaslin]

But in the mean time he and the other rats in congress and the senate could do enormous damage to this great nation of which it would take the country generations to recover, if it ever can

[Dallas59]

It’s a step up from pure communism.

[Bommer]

Socialism is dead? We just took over banks and financial institutions and pushed a $700 billion dollar bailout, and this under a Republican President. Public Schools controled by the Feds. Social Security. Medicare. Did Socialism suddenly get killed last night, because its alive and well.

Hillary Clinton for Supreme Court is likely the deal Obama cut with the Clintons.

As for a wholesale march into socialism it will be incremental under Obama. Higher taxes and new regulations will hobble capitalism. The tax hit on small business will boost unemployment and the inevitable massive new spending will soon cause near double digit inflation...the old stagflation and malaise of Jimmy Carter. With rising unemployment and inflation Obama's advisers will again turn to Keynesian ideas and try to spend their way out of the mess and as with Carter only make it worse. I look for double digit inflation and unemployment by the end of a first Obama term.

With John Kerry as Secretary of State look for pandering to the UN and Europeans on every foreign policy crisis...again echoing Jimmy Carter's mess.

The biggest change under Obama will be a reinstatement of the fairness doctrine extending even to Internet bloggers. I expect many bloggers and talk radio to go to offshore Internet hosting and the radio airwaves will be swept of all but token talk radio. Look for high taxes on Internet service as Obama will pursue plans to extend broadband service to places in rural area where hardly anyone lives or has computers.

[Kaslin]

According to the very left wing media and the liberals it’s going to be a “Landslide” for Obama. My suggestion is to let them celebrate prematurely, but remember who laughs last, laughs best

First of all I don’t think bambi is smart enough to do anything on his own, he will however, most definitely be doing what the marxists behind the scenes who get him into office tell him to do.

Obama has a ground game of thugs as we have never seen with perhaps millions of illegal votes. The only thing that will stop him is an Israel attack on Iran within the next 20 days. Tick tock tick tock.
