You pay into social security don't you? You're a socialist. Everyone on this forum makes use of communal sidewalks and roads...socialism. Those on Social Security? Big time socialists. I mean George W Bush tried passing a new version of Social Security. He's thus a socialist. Pretty much every Senator and member of the House protects SS. They're all socialists.

I mean if socialism pisses you off that much, go running down the street pointing your finger at everyone.

Came here to say .. this. And you said it before me.
Also, we have free health care via Reagan. Walk into any emergency room. Boom.

I'm sure there are things that you weren't aware of before you voted. And why would you make such a comment since you don't even know who I voted for or if I even voted in '08??

It is a matter of being knowledgeable about the background of all the candidates before voting, not for whom you voted or if you voted.

There is an image at the attached link of Obama running on the New Party ticket.

Obama participated in socialist party

Does not surpirse me in the least. Never have i trusted in Obama nor do i now. He has been lying to the American People ever sine he has been elected.

Something more to that Man then meets the eye. Too shifty.

I don't consider Social Security a socialist program. You pay into it and it is not like you rip dollars out of the hands of working men and women to give to those who sit on their hands. You have to earn it. Medicaid and Medical would be socialistic in my opinion.

The New Party didn't have a ticket.

They endorsed the Democratic candidate, and the Democratic candidate, in exchange for the endorsement, promised to support The New Party's agenda. Support of such an agenda is not necessarily 100%. As we know from the Blue Dog Democrats, who certainly didn't support the Democratic agenda 100%.

The New Party was an advocate of fusion candidacies. Which were not uncommon in the early history of our country, but as the two major parties consolidated their power post Civil War, fusion candidacies became less and less prevalent, until states began to outlaw the practice.

Fusion candidacies are widely practiced in countries where multi-parties dominate rather than the two-party system.

I have to wonder why all this old information is being dredge back up by the media and why Bill Clinton seems to be undermining the Obama administration with every turn he takes,,,of course then corrects his misspeaking, lol. Could it be that many of the democrats have started to pull away from supporting Obama? Perhaps that is why they are calling for investigations into the recent leaks... Seriously why dredge up this old stuff?

You're right. It is old stuff. When asked about it in 2008 Obama's campaign denied it. Now there is evidence that those denials were outright lies. That's what's new. Maybe you don't care that you were lied to in order to help elect Obama. Other people may think differently about that.
