To borrow from the old campaign of Al Smith (1928, if you don't happen to recall): ''Let's look at the record.''

Larger government from Mr. Bush? Yes.

More redistribution of income, courtesy of Fat Teddy's education bill, the pork-o-rama farm subsidy bill, and the new prescription drug ripoff...er, entitlement? Yes.

The beginnings of surrender of national sovereignity, to WTO and others (read Marx and Engels' famous work, something they ardently advocated)? Yes.

The advocacy of ''free'' trade (not free trade, but ''free'' trade, again, another of Marx' favourite ideas)? Yes.

Tell you what...just read Marx' and Engels' Communist Manifesto, just read it casually through, one time -- then come on back and tell me why the description of Mr. Bush as a quasi-Marxist is inaccurate.

Never mind personal venting -- you'll notice that, throughout this thread, I haven't -- but make me a rationally-based counterargument, if you care to.
