Florida Anchor Barbara West Responds to Controversial Biden Interview
http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,444507,00.html

WEST: You may recognize this famous quote: “From each according to his abilities to each according to his needs.” That’s from Karl Marx. How is Senator Obama not being a Marxist if he intends to spread the wealth around?

BIDEN: Are you joking? Is this a joke?

WEST: No.

BIDEN: Or is that a real question?

WEST: That’s a question.

BIDEN: He is not spreading the wealth around. He’s talking about giving the middle class an opportunity to get back the tax breaks they used to have.

WEST: What do you say to the people who are concerned that Barack Obama will want to turn America into a Socialist country much like Sweden?

BIDEN: I don’t know anybody who thinks that, except the far right-wing of the Republican Party.

Obama’s ideology is America Hater. Socialism, communism and fascism are mere vehicles to punish America. The ultimate punishment is to take this “sweet land of liberty” and turn it into a third world dung heap of warring factions more closely resembling Somalia than socialist Europe. Ant of the -isms will do as long as it delivers the goods.

“By “socialist,” I do not mean a Lenin, Castro, or Mao”

The Obama would join that rank if he could.
Two things stop him: armed Americans, and his own wussiness.

You are correct. He postures as a Leninist, he governs - to abuse that word - as a syndicalist or fascist.

“no, no actually he is a dictatorial Communist”

I think he’s actually a fascist. But it is sort of like debating the number of angels on the head of a pin.

The fact that they are still asking this question is pretty pathetic.

His style of massive government, socialist marxist ties were well known prior to him winning the nomination.

Economic Fascist is the most accurate term.

Let’s add two more words here:

Statist and collectivist. These really accurately define the diseased thinking of Comrade Barry.

Once again it seems that the liberals are framing the argument.

Instead of debating ad nauseum what he "IS"- let's all agree on what he "ISN'T" -

Obama "ISN'T" a patriotic American! And he "ISN'T" good for America!
