and again, and again, and again, and again..... Maybe global depopulation is not such a bad thing, really!!!!! Come to think of it, that is one thing Communists are very good at - snuffing out lives en mass.

Perhaps in your mind, but not in reality.

By the way, I've asked every actual socialist I can find in the real world and in cyberspace if they approve of Obama's "socialist" policies.

NONE of them consider Obama anything but a moderate capitalist. If the socialists don't think he's a socialist, why do you?
Obama and his group have moved us so much farther in less than 1 1/2 years toward socialism than I thought they could in 4 years and yet people like you continue to howl the far left howl because he hasn't done enough. The problem for him is that he knows he can't take us there as soon as the far left wants or he will lose the whole thing so he is holding back.

You sound like a very far left one who really believes what you said. I was convinced by the left about McCarthy in the 50s but in 1972 my puppy eyes opened and I became something other than a wild eyed liberal. I have come to the realization that McCarthy was very right about everything.

You just don't like his policy decisions. Well too bad. Welcome to democracy.
WHAT???? Nothing anti-American about what he does?? What about apologizing for us being a great country? What about getting rid of NASA programs? What about sitting there, nodding his head while Calderon is talking utter trash about AZ, while his country does worse? My goodness. Obama is the worst when it comes to anti-America. He's no different that Chavez or Calderon, oh wait sorry, Calderon is president only in name. He has no real power. The drug cartel does.....

He sides with parts that can help him get his program into effect but he has said that the document is in his way. If he could, he would declare it dead and happily put in his program.

Yeah, Rual, that is the best they can do, is call names. If we are in opposition of their opinons, we are stormfront.....sticks and stones.....
But I guess we really can't blame poor Barry. I mean he never had a chance, did he? Being abandoned and raised by Marxists. Then being "mentored" by those same types. My grandfather used to say, "you are who you run with". Look at everyone that Obama has and is "running" with.

Socialism, Communism, Capitalism... ... its all words. Income distribution is all that matters. America has an income distribution that completely removes it from association with other countries of similar industrialization. The Latin Americas, the Caribbean, despotic hellholes in Africa and the Middle East, Communist China. Those are the countries that share similar GINI indices with the U.S. and after the Bush administration our GINI index actually went over 40 which officially delineates Third World income distribution status. The aggressive campaigning for a return to a Republican rudder along with the ever widening income gap that Republican administrations favor is what will do this country in. Obama has bought the entire world a bit of time. Time that we are wasting.
