Saw this popping up on the 20something BernieBot facebook accounts.

Many of the programs instituted by Franklin D. Roosevelt and Lyndon Johnson that we take for granted today — such as Medicare, the 40-hour work week, the minimum wage, and Social Security — can be considered socialist programs.

Yes...and in their current state they are spiraling toward collapse...I guess they can't be bothered to notice something like that when writing something like this.

"Bernie Sanders is a democratic socialist. He believes that our current economic system isn't doing enough for poor and middle-class Americans and that democratic change is needed to create a more fair and just America."

Substitute "Germany" for America, and that's what Hitler thought!

The goal of Socialism is Communism.

We were told that Socialist/Communism did not pose a threat to the American way of life. And yet they want to fundamentally change this country.

Stalinists lie. ALWAYS

I want whoever is running on the republican side to ask Bernie if he is a national socialist, or international socialist. I want to see heads explode!

Wasn’t Chavez a “democratic socialist”?

[onedoug]

He’s a commie.

Democratic socialist? What other type of socialist is there? Socialist DemocRAT is more like it.

But that begs the question, “What other type of DemocRAT is there”?

[Baladas]

Creeping socialism done by creeps. They think “democratic socialists” sounds better because it has “democrat” in its name.

[Captain Compassion]

You can’t fun size Socialism.

He’s a Marxist and fellow traveler who spent his honeymoon in Moscow in the Soviet Union.

Bernie did not run for his first office as a “democratic socialist.” He ran as a good ole Soviet style socialist. No two ways about.

Was he lying then, or is he lying now? My guess is that his views have not changed over the years.

"Bernie Sanders is a democratic socialist. He believes...that democratic change is needed to create a more fair and just America."

He believes that he should be elected the first time and then you'll never "need" to vote again:

Democratic Socialism = Killing Fields.
