The Left has beat us at the game of semantics for decades: re-branding firearms as "assault weapons," passing off media censorship as "fairness," transmogrifying abortion into "choice," etc., etc., etc.
They're naked now. There is no denying that what Barack Obama-Soros is doing is transforming our capitalist democracy into a socialist dictatorship.
Let's make them live with what they are.
Let's brand them with the term "Neo-Marxists" the way they branded us with the term "Neo-Cons."
I'm sick of them calling the shots.
Zping for later...
I’m simply calling them communists - they get the point immediately.
something about the tree of liberty
I agree. Calling them socialists is sugar coating it.
Aye!
We already know that O does not like to be called a socialist, and the nicest way to term it.
If you want to REALLY tweak them,
call them FASCISTS.
And you can set them up, too, by first referring to them as socialists. They’ll deny that, and then you can concede, “yes, you’re right, the policies the left advocates are not so much socialist as they are fascist. Sorry, I should have clarified that.”

What if they say “if Marxism means that people get affordable health care, than I’m a Marxist!”
Be ready to have true stories handy of what health care is like in Sweden, England, and Canada.
Make liberals—neo-Marxists—defend the idea of bureaucrats making health care decisions.
Something I’d like to see raised is the fact that 0bama won’t look us in the eye. I think that would strike a chord with everyone that sees him on TV. Many people say “well, he’s reading his teleprompters”. But, a teleprompter could be put where he could appear to be looking at us through the camera. 0 won’t do that. The truth is he’s so used to looking at only 2 teleprompters on either side of him that he if he tried to place one where it appears he’s looking at us, it would throw him off...he couldn’t do it.
If lots of people started asking “why won’t 0bama look us in the eye” it would resonate. People would think back over EVERY time they’ve seen him on TV and realize he NEVER looks us in the eye.
my 2¢
Nothing new about their Marxist ideas. They’re just Marxists.
Actually they are retro-marxists.
Works for me!
Forget the “neo”; they’re just plain Marxists — the same Marxists that have been around since the first one.
A video demonstrating it would come in handy.
DITTO for me!
Last week a young voter did not know what a liberal was.
I asked her if she knew who Karl Marx was...blank stare and a "no"
I don’t think they are Neo anything. I think they are straight out and out Marxists.
Please define this term for us.
I prefer the term, “dirty pinko commies”.
