... it’s the position being taken by people of both parties and no party...

Okay, so a lot of people believe it. How does that prove it is not a 'wild-eyed socialist position'?

It’s quite common on NPR for hosts and guests to express amazement that anyone considers Obama to have anything like “left-wing” sensibilities. Why! He’s not left-wing at all! Thoroughly mainstream! Right down the middle of the road! Just ask NPR, they’ll tell you.

For example, on radio today Glenn Beck labeled the president a “Marxist.”

And Beck is 100% correct.

Raise taxes? You’re gonna see the Laffer Curve on steroids, Bro. Don’t assume that you’ll get an additional dime from the productive/achievers that you’ve denigrated these past 30 months.
Raise my taxes? UP YOURS!

Alan Keyes rightfully called him a Marxist seven years ago. No one listened.

No, it’s more like a dumb-a$$, incompetent, socialist position... yours.

So,now we are supposed to believe that Obama is NOT a Marxist? Sure. And Secretariat was NOT a horse.

Anyone who cannot see the New Deal for the Corporatist (collective,top down) fiasco it was, is dangerous.

“pressure House Republicans to come around to a deal that he insisted must include new taxes — which he calls “revenues”

OK we’ll have a Union dues tax. 20% of Union dues collected go toward reducing the public debt.

We are on the ugly side of the Laffer curve and heading in the wrong direction.
