Ahhhhh, Communism. Unfortunately our electorate either have no clue what it means or have a warm fuzzy nostalgic feeling about it (love, peace, Woodstock, etc). I’ve tried to illustrate the Marxist tendencies of Obama and all I get is a blank stare. Or, I’ve even had some argue that Jesus was a liberal or a socialist so what could possibly be so bad about distributing wealth!?
It's pretty scary, the degree of ignorance and stupidity on the subject, isn't it? And it is indeed widespread.
