Orszag: Obama not a socialist
Former Director of the Office of Management and Budget Peter Orszag told Fareed Zakaria on CNNs Fareed Zakaria GPS that President Barack Obamas critics are wrong to say that he has a socialist economic philosophy.
President Obama is not a socialist, Orszag said. The label reflects a yearning for pragmatic solutions to the problems that we face. And socialist just -- I mean, again, it just does not fit.
Orszag said that given the actions that the Obama administration has taken to deal with the economic crisis, labeling Obama as a socialist is misguided.
One would think that a socialist would be all in favor of jumping at the opportunity to nationalize banks, Orszag said. He has maintained the basic structure of our capitalist system despite the fact that we have gone through a very dramatic period.
No %^itSherlock!! He’s a Commie!!!
This explains it ...
Dr. John C. Drew, PhD, met Obama in 1980 and had long discussions with him about a faith they both shared: Marxism.
Drew says that Obama was in complete 100% agreement with his Marxist college professors who wanted a revolution in this country to overturn the power structure. He was consumed with the notion of wealth redistribution & more affirmative action programs to bring about less inequality and more income equality.
He had kind things to say about the Soviet Union (like Alice Palmer his mentor) S.U. was a better model than the USA !!!
He and Chandoo drove around together in a BMW. They looked like a wealthy gay couple. Looked like “multi-millionaires”. Chandoo went to the Ramadan dinner at the WH last year but “doesn’t remember meeting Obama” until a photo of them shaking hands was produced.

* Flag-stomping Bill Ayers
* Alice Palmer (Barry was chief of staff to this Chicago Communist)
“Call me Barry ...”
“My most vivid memory was in how insistent he was in arguing a Marxist-Leninist point of view.”
He insisted a real revolution was coming ... and then Marxist-Leninists would be on top !!!”
“He definitely saw America as the enemy”.
“The ruling elite had rigged our economic system to cause people to be poor, had unfairly taken all the money and that America needed ‘Redistribution of Wealth” to make matters fair”.
Dr. Drew was the founder of the Anti-Apartheid Union and the student Marxist Students Association in 1976 at Occidental College, (but has later changed his (Drew’s) views.)

No, he is a hardline Stalinist.
Stalinist = Communist that does not follow the rules and allows for a ruling elite of corrupt capitalists.
A Bolshevik.
Marxist
he is a friggin Marxist....who rules with a fascist hand.
OMB Director?? No wonder we are in such a mess.
Who ya gonna believe. Orszag or your lyin’ eyes?
Oh yeah, 0 is clearly a economic fascist.
If a Leftist says it, it MUST be the truth. That's the way they and Big Media think. You MUST believe them. Don't think for yourself! Never mind that Zero and his Admin are taking over many private companies and controlling the actions of the rest. Socialism is spreading in our country and the Leftists think we are stupid and won't realize it if they lie about it. Pay no attention to the Soros behind the curtain!
Amazing that people have such a hard time understanding. Yes, he really is a Communist. Duhhhh!. A counter revolution is needed.
“Not a socialist”... “yearning for pragmatic solutions to the problems that we face”...
Yeah right, you a$$wipe. Name a single thing Odumba$$ has done or proposed that has been done to improve or solve the issues we face. To the contrary, everything he has done was with the intent of weakening our economy and country.
If you have to tell us, then it’s too late.
Yup, great reference.
Good job with the Newsweak cover. You caught them.
Obama is a Marxist by his own words...
Obama-”Spread the wealth around”

The progressives will deny our charges of socialism all day long. But they will never allow us to take a close look at what socialism is.
The last thing they want is to have the actual definition of socialism on the table. This is how they brainwashed half the country in the first place—the objective study socialism is not offered in government schools.
