Floridians link Obama with Manley socialism

"I am looking at the US economic systems through the lens of a capitalist, versus some of Obama's policies which tend to reflect some elements of socialism," Levi Williams, general counsel for the Broward Repu-blican executive committee, told The Gleaner.

This article is a few days old, but it might have gotten lost in the post election blues. Interesting take on the whole OBH debacle though. Below I will provide another link to a Manley Socialism discussion, that gave me some perspective as to who was or what is Manley Socialism.

Brevity is the soul of wit:

Barack Obama is a communist.

I always saw him as more of a womanly socialist.

Barack Obama is a communist.

I don't think he is anything but a teleprompter reading puppet --Those pulling the strings will tell him what he is

assimilation?....lol

from that link I posted:

“Now one of the errors made by Manley was that he was in too much of a hurry to pursue the policy of change. Almost every month a new programme was announced. There was the National Literacy Programme, Project Land Lease, Home Guards, Special Employment Programme, Maternity Leave with Pay, Community Enterprise Orga-nisations, and others.

Not only that, but his supporters even at the leadership level, were constantly trying to outdo each other to carry out change. There was, for example, the proposal to change the name of King's House, the official residence of the governor general, to something more appropriate such as state house. Another was the decision to change the name of the Jamaica Information Service to the agency for public education. This was abandoned when it was pointed out that when initialised it became ‘APE’ which would given endless laughlines to the pantomime and satirical revue ‘Eight O'clock Jamaica Time’. Consequently, there was the subsequent name change to Agency for Public Information.”

I think tonight I will spend a few hours researching this Manley fellow.

I agree that there is something sinister behind him. But there is no way to excuse him because he has same way of thinking. Obama is a communist as well is the powers behind him and America is in trouble.
