The healthcare bill that was not a healthcare bill at all.

The illegal alien deal.

His attack on Libya.

His acceleration of existing wars.

His stimulus crap.

Talk of taxing the rich.

Halting oil production, when there is no need.

Bowing and apologizing to the world for his Progressive parties failures

I don't think any of you understand socialism at all.

Talk of taxing the rich is socialist? All that's been mentioned is a RETURN to the level of taxation they experienced before their elitist pig President gave them a trillion dollars at the expense of our nation. Twice.

Bowing and apologizing for raping other countries of their resources and disrupting their elections is SOCIALIST? I need to sit down.

Stimulus? Didn't that happen under Bush2?

Obama is not a socialist, but I, like millions of other Americans, want socialized health care. I go even further. I think energy should be socialized too.

Correct answer: none of the above.

Another misleading poll by a misled liberal. The Heritage Foundation did not write the health care bill.

Quote:
The Obama health-care law "builds" on the Heritage health reform model only in the sense that, say, a double-quarter-pounder with cheese "builds" on the idea of a garden salad. Both have lettuce and tomato and may be called food, but the similarities end there. This is why we at the Heritage Foundation respectfully ask President Obama and his acolytes to stop misrepresenting our research. We think this massive health law is abominable and should be repealed.
Robert Moffit - Obama's health reform isn't modeled after Heritage Foundation ideas

Aaaaaaannnd just how do these things fit into any reasonable definition of socialism?

I can see a very weak argument for the stimulus package (which Obama didn't make necessary), but the rest is complete nonsense.

What strange, alien definition of "socialism" are you working from?

Couldn't simply refer to the bills right? Had to insert your opinion slant to the options given?

Your poll is garbage.

I'm curious about the poll result done by a group on right-wing radicals who don't know what socialism is if it falls down from the sky and smack them in the face.

The illegal alien deal. What deal?

His attack on Libya. Socialists are Humanitaries? Like Bush saving Iraq?

His acceleration of existing wars.He got us back to fighting in Afganistan, because THAT is the war we should have been fighting all along against the terrorists, He is pulling us out of Iraq as we speak, or didn't you know that

His stimulus crap.An awful lot of stimulus was passed by good conservatives, and even they admit it wa needed to save more jobs from being lost.

Talk of taxing the rich.They are already taxed, all he wanted to do is remove the tax CUTS for the rich, one of these days you will understand the difference, I doubt it will be any tie soon.

Halting oil production, when there is no need.He did not halt anything, LIE. He did apply stricter rules on deep wells but that is about it.

Bowing and apologizing to the world for his Progressive parties failuresNever happened, ANOTHER right-wing LIE. Saying that admitting that this Nation has not always been in the right is not apologizing and it is TRUE, whether you like it or not.

Since many of them seem to think it is the JOB of the government and President to get them jobs I would say it is they that are the socialists but the are not smart enough to know it
