Yes, that's why fascism hates communist (which is far left; btw if you want to call Obama a Leninist than I might believe it)...if you read it carefully, they just like today's tea party people. Did I prove my point again? However, one good thing about America is that owning guns is not the sole right of the ring winger . This is almost comical.
It is comical. 'The Hitler as Leftist' (when Hitler himself rose to power by using the Bolsheviks as his foil) is a really silly idea, and re-write of history, advanced by wackos such as Glenn Beck (the same guy who when caught in a lie by The View crew said, 'I'm a commentator, not a news reporter,') and Jonah Goldberg.

Nobody really takes it seriously.

As for Obama.................

There has been a lot of information coming out on this very thing.
I have seen it on national TV and our local CBS affiliate did a story
just last week on it. It's a sad testimony to today's vein and twisted world.

I just wanted to add something here, in my little part of SC, I went down one road ONE, and saw 3 restuarants with signs out advertising they were looking for help. Maybe that's not a high paying job, but when one has no unemployment check coming in, or anything else, then I suppose that is a good enough job while one hunts for something better. If little tiny Fort Mill/Tega Cay can have 3 jobs posted with signs within one road, I have to imagine maybe Charleston has some too. If it was me, and I was hungry, I would work an entry level service job as long as logistics allowed me to (do they have a car available..would they need to take a bus etc)

codependency.
you could have it.
you are pulling the plow for 2 and it seems natural and appropriate to you.
see a counselor for yourself, not him. if you have codependency-- pursue coda 12 step like
your life depended on it--do it with a sponsor.
see link - pay attention and read carefully patterns and characteristics of codependency.
