Barack Obama's Stealth Socialism

Election '08: Before friendly audiences, Barack Obama speaks passionately about something called "economic justice." He uses the term obliquely, though, speaking in code

[neocon1984]

One of the reasons that politicians are scared of inflation is that it affects senior citizens (on fixed incomes) the most. They also vote more than other groups.

If Obama prints a lot of money, he will do it in his second term because to do so in the next 2-3 years will surely make him a one-term president.

>>>What happens to socialism if the gov’t goes broke?<<<

The perfect circumstances for the socialists to achieve power and control.

The left has a history of using a crisis to achieve power. Look at the rise of socialist movements in Russia, Germany, China, Cambodia - all of them had war, economic collapse, or social dislocation (sometimes all three) before the socialists took control.

The best defense against the socialists is a robust economy and a culture with traits that make socialism unpalatable. Sadly, we ain’t there any more. But don’t wish for economic collapse. That’s the kind of vaccuum that the left would love to take advantage of.

My step-mother voted for Obama. She asked what I thought. I simply said, “You voted for socialism.” Silence on the phone and then she responded, “well, i don’t think so, but I won’t argue over the phone.” I then asked to speak with my father.

We got a very cold Christmas card from them this year.

A lot of people on our side forget just how much power we really do have. Just think about who voted for this disaster we call Obama. Most of them are freeloaders and think the world owes them a living. We on the other hand are responsible and work our buts off paying the bills for everything. So it seems if we want Obamas sort of change, what we real Americans should do is just get on the handout bandwagon and force the economy into a total meltdown. Just remember this, tough responsible people that work hard and plan well for tomorrow always come out on top, that's a fact of life.
I personally am about ready to just take a part-time job (and food stamps if necessary)to just make ends meet and live poor for the next couple of years. If we were all willing to try this we could starve these socialist parasites of tax money and bring them to submission. I can tell you now that most of the Obama supporters will not be willing to work as we real Americans do. It has not been programed into them by the failing school systems and other socialist propagandist.

I had read this series back when it was first published. IBD is a great source of very good Conservative thinking.

[Dubya-M-DeesWent2SyriaStupid!]

sad that the MSM missed reporting on any of it muchless Obama’s Chicago mob ties.

[Tarpon]

The media built a perfect cocoon for the Odummer voters.

stealth in action

[trisham]

No stealth involved. Stupidity on the part of some voters, but it was very clear what Obama was about.

[Dubya-M-DeesWent2SyriaStupid!]

it is stealth to the ones that sing songs about him as if he is a messiah. it is stealth to those that are too young or stupid to know what socialism is.

[veritas2002]

I think the only recourse for us in the US is to promote this socialism as much as we can so that what happened in the Soviet Union occurs here - the whole economy comes crashing down. Once this happens we can rebuild our country on the basis of the Constitution. So let’s spend our way into oblivion and get it over with.

Truth divides.

[navymom1]

Actually, it divided a long time ago.

[anniegetyourgun]

So true....and, see how united we are in one mind about that truth?!?

[lentulusgracchus]

No. and be careful of his crafty move to the center, moves. He was trained by the best in manipulation.

Solid-suggestion bump. Saul Alinsky was the Lucifer of American politics.

Wonder if Obama's got a "kitchen cabinet" of movement Communists like Bill Ayers stashed somewhere?

Axelrod, Emanuel and the rest strike me as technicians, the political equivalent of roadies. So who does Obama jam with? Who was he having private sessions with before he packed up and hit the road? And what were they playing -- Woody Guthrie blow-up-the-mine stuff?

[lentulusgracchus]

We got a very cold Christmas card from them this year.

Stand up for your principles, dear. You told it to her straight from the shoulder.

Three years from now, she'll be willing to listen to reason, once we've all seen what the Obammunist has in mind, and then she may be able to appreciate your honesty and straight back. After all, she gave them to you.

[Canedawg]

Left is the new center.

Now, everytime I hear someone insist that this country is “still right of center” I cringe.

it aint so at the moment...
