Ralph Nader was a communist- Real communists live in little poor apartments and walk the walk- Obama will never live like the all mighty equal poor- He will live in a mansion to a ripe old age- and when he finally leaves the world will be put in the ground in a casket worth more than you house.. No- there is no such thing as a communist in power...If it were true- there would be evidence of it....communism means a community of workers who all get the same wage...while their masters preach equality...but live the good life...

The OP insulted himself by posting this silliness. He has outed himself as being either utterly devoid of any understanding of political systems or completely delusional. How could anyone possibly insult him more so than he already has? This must be the type of voter that the GOP is pandering to.

As Bruce Bartlett points out, Obama is a right-leaning Democrat.

Quote:
Here are a few examples of Obama's effective conservatism:

His stimulus bill was half the size that his advisers thought necessary;
He continued Bush’s war and national security policies without change and even retained Bush’s defense secretary;
He put forward a health plan almost identical to those that had been supported by Republicans such as Mitt Romney in the recent past, pointedly rejecting the single-payer option favored by liberals;
He caved to conservative demands that the Bush tax cuts be extended without getting any quid pro quo whatsoever;
And ... has supported deficit reductions that go far beyond those offered by Republicans.

Nixon, remember, instituted wage and price controls and opened ties with Red China.

The retarded radical right doesn't know what communism really is and many think that Joe McCarthy was a great man. They are stupid and not worth debating.

A biased and pointed youtube video is hardly the medium for 'finding the truth.' That's just propaganda.

I don't need to watch the videos to know that everything that Obama says or does is going to be construed as a huge communist conspiracy by a group of people who have no idea what communism is. Is that your point?

You will yell and scream and probably, at some point, call me a childish name. None of that will change the fact that you have very little idea what you are talking about.

I give this troll poll about a day before it gets yanked.

If not, I'm complaining. What crap.

This is today's GOP. Just oblivious and flinging poo.
