Maybe I missed the link, but I don't see any any explanation of how the question was phrased or how the terms were defined. If the poll just asked for a reaction to the words, undefined, it doesn't mean much. It is not difficult to pose a series of poll questions, each receiving heavy majority support, that are flatly contradictory.

Most people, for example, are generally in favor of a more equal distribution of incomes. (I am among them, and so probably are you; the question is legitimate vs. illegitimate means.) Most people would also agree that people should be able to keep most of what they earn, and that there should be a maximum tax rate beyond which government should not go. A majority of Americans believes that the major entitlements should be protected, and simultaneously that government spends too much money and that spending should be restrained. And so on, ad nauseam.

Between ignorance and flat stupidity, the electorate is wide open to manipulation. Only the integrity of the political class and the competence of a vigilant and impartial press protect us from the charlatans. Sleep well.

Reminds me of a saying way down south, “You either accept the silver or the lead”

Too many people are accepting the silver from the socialists.

It is telling to see the attempt to separate "blacks" as being something other than "liberal Democrats."

Soooooo, just how many blacks are running around being classified only as "conservatives?"

































Yeah, that's the answer I usually get...

Our language has been re-shaped to favor Socialism. “Capitalism” is itself a word coined by Karl Marx. Otherwise we would use the term “free enterprise” or something like that.

Satan has found a movement that works for him; his Socialism is breaking down the family, the government, education, religion and entertainment, and the media, using and abusing the very language that we use to try to communicate. He has stacked the deck.

However, he is not the one in charge. He is being watched and is moving according to God’s schedule as shown in The Revelation.

Come, Lord Jesus.

I think they are confusing the hippies from the sixties who are not socialists but social idiots.
