"If one understands that socialism is not a share-the-wealth programme, but is in reality a method to consolidate and control the wealth, then the seeming paradox of super-rich men promoting socialism becomes no paradox at all. Instead, it becomes logical, even the perfect tool of power-seeking megalomaniacs.

Communism or more accurately, socialism, is not a movement of the downtrodden masses, but of the economic elite."

Gary Allen, Author

Here you are as usually telling us to forget it.

Big_Monkey: “Pelosi has made it impossible for Repubs to attach amendments. This fight is over. We lost and now we will pay the price.”

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2209416/posts?page=50#50

Here you are giving aid and confort to the Obamabots over the AIG bailout:

“Yes you are right. Sadly, everyone who voted for this bill will be a populist hero - much like Hugo Chavez. “

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2210530/posts?page=2#2

Yes, I’m sure you do agree with the Dems!

“The Dems played it absolutely perfectly. They didn’t want the bill to pass because they knew what the long-term implications would be so they let Bush twist in the wind - gladly. Once again, the Dems were playing Chess, while the GOP was playing checkers. In short, we blew it. “

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2209416/posts?page=35#35

And on this issue you don’t care if Obama dictates to private enterprise:

“Personally, I couldn’t care less about Wagoner stepping down. About Obama asking him to step down, that’s something else entirely.”

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-bloggers/2217634/posts?page=19#19

You are what I claimed you to be. This is only a small portion of your overall posts but they reflect the same theme - cover for Obama.

"You are what I claimed you to be. This is only a small portion of your overall posts but they reflect the same theme - cover for Obama.

I'm sorry. I didn't realize you were mentally handicapped. I'm not sure how you can look at any of those posts and come to the conclusion that you came to. Let's take this line of mine you borrowed...

“Yes you are right. Sadly, everyone who voted for this bill will be a populist hero - much like Hugo Chavez."

How can you think that comparing the GOPr's who voted for the unconstitutional 90% ex post facto income tax makes me some kind of "secret leftist" Obama supporter? Do you know who Hugo Chavez is?

And then there's this one..

"Personally, I couldn't care less about Wagoner stepping down. About Obama asking him to step down, that's something else entirely."

But, you left out the rest of my post. Which was...

" If we give another red cent to any of the big 3, and a Republican votes for it, I'll never give a red cent to the GOP again. I purchased my last American made car in 1992. I had it 23 months. It was the biggest piece of crap I'd ever owned. Since then, I moved to a particular German manufacturer, I'd never thought about my car ever again - exactly as it should be.

You think that is some kind of "liberal" position? Do you WANT to give more money to the BIG 3. If so, perhaps you are the one who's the plant.

I feel sorry for you. Apparently you aren't very bright and some of these complex topics are confusing you. And, clearly you've got some kind of personality disorder - but, space is too limited to get into those issues.

Again, with the witty repartee. This is clearly too complicated for you to grasp. I feel sorry for you.

As wonderful as Bozo said he thought the Model T was on gas compared to modern cars, he will probably make them tool up for Model Ts that go about 45 with your foot in it and going down hill!

Seriously, I don't expect the cars GM will be forced to produce will be as good as a Model T, they will be electric and have a range of about 150 miles and take about 16 hours to recharge. Then many other businesses will go out of business because no one will be able to get to work.

Smokescreen! New CEO is picked. He/she comes up with new plan. More billions for the UAW.

You make a great point. I have a horrible feeling in the pit of my stomach. The UAW is way too silent on all of this. They know something good is coming their way and it will be disguised as government aid.

The answer was pre-ordained: Obama screws the already-retired auto workers.

I will be very surprised if anything damaging happens to the UAW"s workers or retirees! They may tweak the Rolls Royce health plan or put a few more guidelines on the pension qualifications, but it won't be earth shattering.

Note that Obama made no mention of the ball-and-chain union demands that are choking the car makers.

...that's very likely. The (leadership of) UAW, Has faithfully supported the Progressive Socialists / Marxists for these many years decades, their payoff is no public union elections...hence, a hereditary oligarchy? (its' family thing.)

no....the only thing; Zer0Bambi, can do is give a good (via teleprompter) speech....to a fawning W.H. Press Corp.
