You wouldn't recognize a real "leftie" if one ran over you like a freight train because you're so busy labelling everyone as a "leftie" if you disagree with them......... I'm the real liberal here. Just started re-reading the biography of Che by Jon Anderson.
Are you by any chance a Republican from South Florida? Is that why you're so upset about this thread?
Yep,...you're a leftie, a socialist who enjoys the products of capitalism but wants to "spread the wealth",...as long as it's somebody else's.
....and who the hell would want to waste time reading Che?
Actually he is a Christian and not really as left as he seems lately. It is just the abject want to defend Obama since he really didn't like Bush, ever.
Actually no one except you has mentioned Obama here. Sorry.
....anything anti-republican "catches your attention".
And, yes,...I did read the link that you apparently did not.....
And any anti-republican comment seems to reduce you to tears. What is it about people like you, who simply can't take any critisizm without going in 100% defensive stance? Is the party really that important? You remind me of what I have read about the former east-germany, where everything revolved around the party. Your life, and every thought seems to revolve around the party. That can't be healthy.
Like the OP I live in MIAMI!! Of course I read it. Actually I'm quite familiar with a LOT of the names in the article as well as related articles. I find it interesting that the Democratic party is so strong in Ft. Lauderdale and yet this guy was giving SO MUCH MONEY to the Republicans! lol lol And he claims that Charlie Crist is one of his very best friends..........you know, Charlie Crist, the Democrat.....oh, no!.......Charlie Crist, the Republican Governor!
Btw, can you remember how much money he gave to the campaigns of the high-rolling Republicans?
Oooh your from MIAMI, of course YOU read it for that reason alone..
At the moment I dont remember how much he gave to either party. The man was a ponzi schemer, PERIOD.. Has nothing to do with Republicans or Democrats. You and the op who wants to make this a Republican issue by ignoring this fact is simply amazing..

One last time,....please show a statement defending the republicans. Not one post defended the republican party,...only highlighted your ignorance of the link you posted. You obviously didn't fully read the article before you titled this thread, and now want to ridicule others because of your own stupidity. Good luck with that,....the longer you write the more childish you appear.
You're one to be critical of others' political beliefs,...you can't see past the end of your nose where political parties are concerned. You have one philosophy,...."republican=bad". Your obvious republican hatred blinds you to the fact that both major parties are equally flawed in almost every aspect.
I suppose your hatred of only the republican party is,...."healthy"?
Well, I guess the 8 years of Republican "rule" didn't think it was important to tackle any of the issues you raise.
I like FDR's New Deal. And, btw, it's Medicaid........[/quote]
I don't believe anyone brought up the '8 years of Republican "rule"',....except you left nutjobs....
If spelling is all you can critize in my post,...then you don't have much to discuss, do you? Why are you posting,....just to hear your head rattle?
If you're going to criticize a social program, your argument would have at least some credibility if you actually knew how to spell the name of the program correctly; otherwise, it just sounds like you are repeating stuff someone else told you because you haven't researched the subject enough to even know the correct spelling.
I noticed that you had no response to why SS is NOT a ponzi scheme.

roy, I'm very familiar with that ultra extremist "conservative" board, and you know as well as I do that Finn is not a "leftist"!! The board you're talking about was such an extremely far right board, that you guys even perceived Finn and "left".......lol lol lol.
There is nothing at all in the OP about Obama.......did you notice that? It was the right wingers who came in throwing Obama's name around.
According to Finn the name Obama didn't show up till I inserted it.
There is a new girl from the Gouverneur, NY area there now who is hopelessly left leaning but she has enough guts to tough it out. Finn was not any more than very centrist 3 years ago at dfw and I loved to throw things around with him so much that I still do except when he is bound and determined to make Obama out to be something he isn't. He wouldn't even be recognized at GT if he sneaked in under a new name. Yep, I really liked him as FatBastard but the new name changed my a bit.

Left leaners attack the messenger at every chance and spelling is a favorite for most of them.
