Hilarious: Matthews thinks Obama needs to offer alternative to capitalism—as if he hasn’t already.

He thinks Obama's support of GM and the bank bailouts is capitalism - as opposed to an outright nationalization of all entities concerned.

Obama Needs To Offer Alternative To Capitalism

He's already done that, and it's not working out so well...

“He has. Its called, socialism! Problem, it don’t work, Chrissy!”

It works until you run out of other people’s money.
Which is exactly what just happened.

if BHO Sr. is his real father he is more arab than black...

Not directed at you personally, but that is one of the most asinine memes that has ever persisted on Free Republic.

BHO Sr. was a BLACK African. Of that, there is NO question. Did he have some Arab ancestry way back in the woodpile? I don't know - perhaps.

BHO Sr. was as Negroid as any blacks living on that continent -- even more-so than those living on this continent.

He along with most of the MSM don't even try to hide their spots anymore.

When the next revolution happens they will be the first to tuck tail and run. What scum.

we’ve been operating under a ‘mixed economy’ since FDR. Obama wants ‘corporatism’ or central planning by bureaucrats. (nomenklatura)
It fails when they run out of other people’s money.

Is he conceding that socialism is not an alternative?

Obama complained that he has been called a socialist. Wouldn’t you think that some enterprising ‘journalist’ might ask Obama just what he (Obama) thinks socialism is?

We’re living the alternative to capitalism...a mixed economy with heavy influence of socialism. It has been that way for some time. Socialism’s poison pills are coming home to roost and more of it is being championed by Barack Obama. It’s what ails us.

It’s the socialism, stupid (Chrissy).

DEFUND socialist collectives, foreign and domestic.

We will live as prosperous, productive, very-low taxed citizens who live in a country which acts as a beacon for individual liberty.

Wouldn’t an “alternative” really mean “overthrow”????

1. I am not “convinced” that BHO Sr. is in fact Obozo’s father.

2. Yes, BHO Sr. has skin that is “black”. Moors have very black skin and most are Muslim and many have Arab ancestry. Color of skin and continent of birth does not determine ethnicity.

3. All the men in BHO Sr.’s family tree have “Arab” names. BHO Jr. is an Arabic name. (FACT) Why? Because they were making a statement that they were not like the other Luo Africans.

http://kennethelamb.blogspot.com/2008/02/barak-obama-questions-about-ethnic.html

Sen. Obama is one generation too far removed from the ethnic African Negro input to make the same claim as his father, Harvard's Admission's stamp of approval notwithstanding.

As you can see for yourself, Sen. Obama’s African-American ethnic claim, when properly researched and documented, is a lie.

The question no one wants to answer - particularly Mr. Obama and his supporters, is, “Why do you think he has an Arabic name? Why does his father have an Arabic name? Why does every ancestor on his father's side have an Arabic name?”

The answer is obvious: They have Arabic names because his father's side of the family tree is Arabic.

Need proof? Research the Kenyan records for yourself. You will find that his father was officially classified as “Arab African” by the Kenyan government.

But in America's current political climate, that truth is heresy; that truth is “an inconvenient truth.” It is the political equivalent in our time to what Galileo's scientific pronouncements were in his time: it is true, but nobody wants to know the truth because the lie is so much more comforting.

That is why detractors of this truth will do everything to denounce it, except submit to the discipline of actually researching it.

There's a reason for that: it proves he is not sufficiently Negro to earn classification under American law as an African-American.

Oh I forgot, his mother is White.

An unfortunate truth for him.

Trust me, I know negro when I see it. I've got real slave blood, which Obama doesn't. His father was as negroid as anyone in my family.

I have had as much socialism down the throat as I can stand. I guess Prissy is asking DumBO to cram it up the rectum.

At least 2 of them are gone, Abercrombie and Grayson.

It’s a shame they don’t have to run under the Socialist label. A lot of folks still vote D simply because their daddy always voted D.

Are you sure that BHO Sr. is Obozo’ biological father?

I am not.

His entire life story is conjured. He is a creation of a group that have the means to change the records.

I know that sounds like tin foil hat stuff, but it is the only explanation for what is.

Did the Langley Spooks do this? I do not know. But someone put this post turtle where he is.

There is only one alternative to capitalism, and it is called Marxism. It has several forms, including socialism, Communism, welfare state, and American liberalism. It is based on central government planning of the economy to redistribute wealth. It is a loser as history has shown time and time again because it tries to change the natural laws of economics, which is like trying to change the natural laws of gravity (It cannot be done.). Capitalism follows the natural laws of economics (the invisible hand).
