Is Obama a Socialist (188)
mr1983: Now lets not get carried away!! I don't think that the bankers would like the socialism you are on about.
And isn,t that what the "bush tax cuts" do. Redistribute the wealth of lower classes more that the higher classes. Wasn't that one of the things Obama wanted to stop. He said he wouldn't touch the tax of couples earning 250,000 or under. Only over. Bur this wasn't good enough for ye either.
And now the bankers are socialists. So its the democrats fault. Because ye call them socialists too. Judging by the way ye call everyone socialists, it could mean that national socialists were to blame. Just a thought!
actually just a Bunch of statist Collectivist Maggots feeding off the Carcass of a once great Nation!And isn,t that what the "bush tax cuts" do.

Conrad73: so by your standard,a Guy like Bill Gates and others are Thieves then?
Not at all...... Why should I think that..... ???
Cowhand: Not at all...... Why should I think that..... ???
By virtue of your earlier post!
Conrad73: By virtue of your earlier post!
:Cowhand: I think it is the only thing that can be done... Most wealthy people.... the reall wealthy people - can only earn - what they have done, because of someone who never came near.... their status...
But it has nothing to do with socialism.... Only humanity...

You are implying they,like Gates and Others,achieved their Success on the back of others,who were unable,or unwilling to put the same effort into a Project!
Conrad73: the very Idea is wrong!
It means that some are Chattel to others!
It is Cannibalism!

Someone like Ron Paul has good ideas on certain policy areas, I'll admit that! If I had a vote in the American election, he would be one republican I would consider voting for. Some of his policies I don't agree with but others are fantastic.

I like some of Ron Paul's ideas lately .....unfortunately he goes whackko occasionally in a far right way and can't be trusted.
Too bad - because he lately has had some really sensible solutions to some of our current problems.......

I agree, what fool would want a balanced budget. OMG..what a concept!
jvaski: What Fool would think we should attempt to remedy that immediately when we have such an entangled complex economic mess....?
But doubling Bush's Debt and kicking the Can down the Road makes more sense?
While he certainly hasn't helped, it certainly didn't start with him.
Here's what Ron Paul said about Obama in 2010.
April 10, 2010, 4:20 PM ET.Ron Paul: Barack Obama is Not a Socialist. Text By Susan Davis
NEW ORLEANS–Republicans and tea party activists are fond of accusing President Barack Obama of being a socialist, but today party gadfly Ron Paul said they had it wrong.
“In the technical sense, in the economic definition, he is not a socialist,” the Texas Republican said to a smattering of applause at the Southern Republican Leadership Conference.
“He’s a corporatist,” Paul quickly added, meaning the president takes “care of corporations and corporations take over and run the country.”
Supporters of the Texas lawmaker appear to represent a significant number of the 3,500 attendees here, fueling speculation that Paul is likely to win the straw poll later today. The Campaign for Liberty, Paul’s political outfit, declined to discuss how many of his supporters were at SRLC.
The Texan’s supporters often descend on political gatherings to vote for him in 2012 straw polls. In February, he won the Conservative Political Action Conference’s straw poll with a hefty 31% of the vote.

Look at the GAO Numbers of the Present Administration!While he certainly hasn't helped, it certainly didn't start with him.
I'm not defending him Con.... but some are shortsighted on where the spend craziness began... it's like lotto winners gone wild and then discover are broke within 5 years.

Sometimes it would be better if they did cry. Some of the absolutely stupid comments they make.
If you'd like, I'll start 5-6 threads w/dumb comments made by Dems.
Only 1 thread would fill up too fast.

Late Breaking news: 
Chairman and CEO Tim Armstrong did his best to stay positive about the somewhat humdrum numbers, calling the report a "meaningful step forward." Indeed, compared to a year ago, this earnings report looks great. In the second quarter of 2010, AOL lost a whopping $1 billion, and the company hasn't seen a rise in advertising dollars since 2008. The company attributes the bump to the recent acquisitions of The Huffington Post and TechCrunch. Armstrong said, "AOL is singularly focused on becoming the next great media company for the digital age and we have positioned the Company’s best people, technology and assets in front of some of the largest opportunities on the internet."
Maybe the Puffington Post will go under!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The US Postal Service is considering laying off 220,000 with a 4 billion dollar lose this last quarter. Already they are talking about a 4 day work week for mail delivery. Some 3200 Post Office are to be closed.
Now I realize that is totally foolish to think that the President of the United States should be able to get the mail delivered. I mean mail has been consistently delivered in this country......even during the Revolutionary war.
This is the country that invented the saying....'neither rain, sleet nor snow the mail must go thru.'
This is the country decimated by atomic destruction and a civil war and the heroic Kevin Costner still got the mail thru in the Postman.
So to see the USPS fold up like a cheap suit when faced with private competition of FEDEX, UPS and Microsoft...is well disheartening.
At a time when confidence is the issue. The USPS service begins to close doors? Some 3200 smaller post office around the country are being closed. Mainstreet America finds allot of confidence building in that picture of the FED government.
GM can get a bailout? Merrill Lynch can get a bailout? Fannie Mea can get a bailout? Each serving only a fraction of the countries population that the USPS does....and the Post Office cannot get a bailout?
Give me a break. The real reason that USPS cannot get a bailout is that the Obama administration spent the country to the deficit ceiling. And this White House forgot to place the money into the budget for a bailout of the Postal service. Just exactly what happened with the 200 FAA construction projects. Just what happened with NASA.
Good governace is also about the details. This administration is missing the details of good government.
President Obama has become the "axe man" of the Federal government.What is a "axe man"? It is a Corporate term....when a company is taken over in a hostile take over....the new owner off send in a 'axe man' to chop away the dead wood in the acquired company.
They are the guys handing out pink slips like candy to the long term employees and placing their retirement into doubt. Axeman for the most part are one step above a use car salesman that sells Yugos and calls them Cherry. Danny Devito played a axe man in his movie on hostile take overs.
Perhaps that is what we have had in the US....a hostile take over. Now the President is cutting dead wood.....

Obama is just a mercenary puppet.
He does what he's told.
He couldn't care less about the economy as long as he gets the wealth and prestige he craves.
Those pulling his strings, the globalist bankers, want to impose socialism, not upon themselves, but upon everybody else.
You can bet that they won't be redistributing their own wealth. Just ours.
Now lets not get carried away!! I don't think that the bankers would like the socialism you are on about.
And isn,t that what the "bush tax cuts" do. Redistribute the wealth of lower classes more that the higher classes. Wasn't that one of the things Obama wanted to stop. He said he wouldn't touch the tax of couples earning 250,000 or under. Only over. Bur this wasn't good enough for ye either.
