Break one of her rules and you’ll be rooming with “Big Daddy”.

While you are correct in fact, the truth is most people do not, will not take the time energy to determine exactly whether Obama is Marxist, Communist, Socialist, etc, it is plain he is against Aamerica and what has made America great. He ignores the Constitution, uses Executive orders in rampant ways never intended and unconstitutionally.

Thus he is making his own rules as he goes, using all his majority POWER and forcing on America, what the people do not want.

God help us in our day, in Jesus name, amen.

What you are describing is indeed socialism. Under 'national socialism' ownership of the means of production is left in private hands with regulation and planning a state function,whereas communism abolishes all private ownership and holds the means of production as a state asset. National socialism is exemplified by NAZI Germany where private industry remained in private hands but was severely regulated by state planning boards.

Barack Obama is a Big Brother nightmare! Sometimes fresh words and descriptions make people pay more attention. Right now I think the term "socialist" is a bit weak and off. I also ADORE the term "Nanny State fascist" to describe him!

"...not socialism but big mommism? Same thing."

Yeah, but I think "Mommy State" is a phrase with a really nasty edge to it. HUGELY insulting. ;-)

The more I read The Road to Serfdom by F.A. Hayek, the more scarier the present situation becomes.

Good point! Altho' I think people use most of these words in loose and imprecise ways. The best term for the World War II era Germans still seems to be "fascist." But all of these political ideals in their various forms -- communism, socialism, and fascism -- need to be brutally crushed.

So too 1930s New Deal and 1960s Great Society WELFARE STATISM!

It’s sloppy and incorrect to call Obama and his radical leftist allies “socialists.” A handful are, no doubt. But most of them don’t want to nationalize anything. Not even health care!

Socialist, Communist, Fascists, Thugs, ASSWIPES. Who cares what they are called. They are simply traitors to the ideals of America and the freedoms and liberties that this Nation was founded on.

"The worst nanny-stater of them all ...Daddy Bloomberg."

I agree. The New York City mayor is a do-gooder dolt and fascist from hell! Almost 100% oblivious to the ideal of freedom. :-(

Yep! That's a great book. I read it 30 years ago, but need to revisit it. I'm currently rereading Economics in One Lesson by Henry Hazlitt. Also a great book about liberty! :-).

Yeah, but getting the words right is often hugely important. Precise language DESTROYS ignorance and lies -- DESTROYS tyranny and evil. Truth is the most powerful force in the universe.

I wouldn’t mind being personally abused and “punished” by Angie in her prime! ;-)
