Socialist - Communist. They’re pretty much the same thing.

The problem is more and more people don't find “socialism” to be something to be afraid of anymore. I heard Ed Schultz say awhile back that he doesn't mind being called a socialist if socialism means people get the Health Care they deserve, and you know his loyal fans were listening, saying that's right you tell em Eddy.

I believe no such thing. He is a Marxist Islamist

Newsweek Magazine believes that Obama is a socialist. Remember their cover story last year after Obama was inaugurated: “We Are All Socialists Now”. What's the problem with Republicans noticing that he is one?

The Left doesn't have a problem with Obama and his socialist/communist tendencies. They just hope to shut us up by implying that we are are dangerous McCarthyite commie hunters from the lunatic fringe.

The left is composed of mostly losers and wannabes who are too lazy to get the skills and education they need to do what they want.

Instead, they just whine about how life is unfair and try to get loathsome politicians to steal money from hard working people, at the point of a gun, to give to them so they do not have to work or think.

After this Health Care fiasco and other congressional garbage, it would appear that all Democrats are socialists or at least fellow travelers

In Dreams of My Father, Obama states that while at Columbia he went to “socialist conferences at Cooper Union”.

And we are conspiracy-hacks for stating what he admitted in his own book?

[HereInTheHeartland]

He is NOT a socialist.

He just wants a sense of fairness in our nation.

His beliefs are encapsulated with this saying: “From each according to his ability, to each according to his needs”

Meanwhile, nearly a quarter of the Republicans polled, 23 percent, want their state to secede from the union.

Damn straight. Enough of this penny-ante BS and pretending that the Federal Socialists listen or respect the law.

We aren't welcome. Time to take our tax toys and go home.

Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.
I'm lazy.
