Chrissy gives insanity a bad name.
Maybe Matthews thinks Obama should quit being a stealth socialist and come out and explicitly defend the philosophy by name.
Someone needs to keep this guy away from small children.
It's the same core choice. See my #19.
It really is kind of sad. The left is always INFURIATED at Obama because he won’t DO what he actually is DOING! They’re so dumb.
LOL!
Agreed. You are correct.
What a moron. Whatever the Resident is doing, rest assured it has nothing to do with capitalism. Nor with freedom in a constitutional republic.
Read up on pan-leninism and nationalist socialism. Its closer to that.
Or maybe its just stealing and corruption. And lying.
Does Chris Matthews really think that Barack Obama has devised a heretofore unknown economic and political model in secret, one that is presumably more efficient at creating wealth than capitalism, yet more socially just than socialism?
Does Chris Matthews really not understand that, intellectually speaking, Obama is neither fit to shine the shoes of Adam Smith or Karl Marx?
The idea that Obama could beat either or both of them at their own games, because it would be convenient for a washed up burnout leg tingler in 2011 is so brazenly stupid it defies quantification. Matthews should at least have the decency to fake some kind of substance abuse problem and avail himself to rehab, and a belated but welcome retirement.
Thanks governsleastgovernsbest.
Time for company shareholders to give Chris Matthews an alternative to capitalism.
Perhaps Sissy does not know that "capitalism" is a word Sissy Mathews is a :
coined by Marxists to describe Freedom and Liberty.
that’s what he has been doing for the past 2 1/2 years Chris.
Not to worry hannity has that hack Lieberman the independent back on his show why now? oh liberman is selling a new book figures. But gee
Lieberman hasn’t been on hannity for what a few years last election cycle? Hannity and his pals your time is about over I am cutting you out of my radio and tv time and if if you want to save a few viewers share the football, you hog it like you are quarterback which you are not you are just an establishment hack!
What do you think the communist caliph has been doing so far?
You idiot!
More like Pol Pot
Yeah, THAT’S the ticket, Sissy Matthews.
When socialism fails, offer an alternative to capitalism!
Brilliant.
Better dry up that wet spot that caused the thrill up your leg.
Boy is Matthews slow. BHO has been talking up socialism since he started running for POTUS.
Socialism is the fraudulent offer that we each can live at the expense of others. A Christian will know that socialism violates three of the Ten Commandments: lies, coveting and theft.
But it goes deeper than that. Economist Joseph Salerno in his essay [1], Postscript: Why a Socialist Economy is “Impossible” quoted Ludwig von Mises, who “demonstrates, once and forever, that, under socialist central planning, there are no means of economic calculation and that, therefore, socialist economy itself is “impossible” —not just inefficient or less innovative or conducted without benefit of decentralized knowledge, but really and truly and literally impossible.”
Having central planning attempt to manage an economy is like trying to measure the height of the waves in a lake from the back of a power boat circling in its own wake. Worse, while one central planning committee is pondering rule making and setting levels of benefits and subsidies, it must do so even though other central planners down the street have introduced their own economic distortions due to previous government intrusions based on data supplied by yet another bureaucracy charged with gathering statistics they are free to seasonally adjust.
Even though many people know this deep down inside, I think is a lack of faith in liberty and in other people that induces them to keep returning to using socialism to attempt to solve life’s problems. Yet as Mark Levin points out, it never has worked, and as Salarno and Mises prove, it never can work.
On its way to not working, everyone who finds themselves under the control of the ruling elite find that socialism gives them misery, suffering and death. The only people who support such a system are the true believers who cling to the hope it will allow them to live at the expense of others or to end poverty. In the end, like in Cambodia after the Killing Fields were exhausted, there are no “others” left.
