Calling Obama and the OWS movement Communist is nothing new, remember the attacks on Kerry (suspect, Whitehouse)

It's hard to tell what the OWS'ers really are. I suspect that like the tea party, it is amorphous right now. But we can only go by their own words. A poster here provided this video of Bill Ayers with some OWS'ers the other day. The very first thing out of the narrators mouth describes them as the "anti-capitalist 'occupy' movement." Then Bill Ayers goes on to talk about his dealings with the Vietnamese (presumably North) when he was just a young pup like the OWSers. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2E1hKn7v9bs
Any time someone wants to take from one and give to another based on "need", it's socialism.
I must respectfully disagree. Socialism is government ownership of the means of production. We do have plenty that around now, of course, and the OWSers doubtless would like even more.
Obama asked us to define him by who he surrounds himself with.
He hired Van jones to be his green jobs czar, not an insignificant position, the guy was a commie. Obama let him go after VJ's affiliation was known. but he didn't go far.
Obama used Bernandine Dorn a terrorist/commie/socialist, whatever label you wish to affix to her as an advisor. Lest we not forget her hubby Bill Ayers. These two gems have endorsed global elections for US president and participated in terrorist acts.

Strategy of divisiveness used by many 'ism's to take power. Obama specializing in divisivenss and class warfare as he destroys our economy and bypasses the legislative process.
Label not important as we adhere to the standard Obama set for us to define him...he is surrounded by unsavory people who live in the fringe of society. No thanks! We don't wish to go in that direction.
Laughable when sophicated posters attempt to discount comments because the definition of a label is technically incorrect.
Actually the label is irrelevant, it is the content that matters. Something is sticking out of my back, can't see what it is...looks like it might be a fork..NO! you are wrong it is not a fork that sticks out of your back! You don't know what yopu are talking about! It is a knife that sticks out of your back! go away, leave me, you ignorant dolt!
It's been standard operating practice for conservatives for decades. Communism, and homosexuality, the two most common charges against Democrats and the Left.
Socialism means "spreading misery" to everyone. Instead of lifting the poor, it drags everyone into the hole.
