Sarah Palin rips President Obama, tells Fox News his economic policy is leading U.S. to socialism
NY Daily News ^ | June 9, 2009 | Leo Standora

Sarah Palin said "we told ya so" to President Obama on Monday night, claiming his spending polices to revive the economy were leading America to socialism.

"When you consider that the federal government is about $11 trillion in debt, and we're borrowing more to spend more ... it defies any sensible economic policy any of us ever learned through college," the former Republican vice presidential candidate told Sean Hannity in a Fox News interview.

"It defies economy practices and principles that tell ya 'you gotta quit digging that hole when you are in that financial hole.'"

Her comments came as the White House acknowledged it has spent only $44 billion, or 5 percent, of the $787 billion stimulus so far - a total that has always been expected to rise sharply this summer.

Palin, the governor of Alaska and one of the most popular elected Republican officials, went on to rail against the government takeover of the auto industry.

Obama’s policies are leading to Zimbabweism.

I can’t wait until we let this lady loose on them rather than the muzzle which the GOP places on her.

Sadly, the word “socialism” is viewed favorably by many people.

Communism is a much better word, as is BIG GOV.

That's the point, though. Socialism is what drug-addled America wants. They voted it in! They want to be "taken care of."

They'll be taken care of, all right....just not in the way they envisioned.

Note the wording of the PropagandaPoll:

Pro-Palin: Reluctantly concedes that she makes SOME good points.

Anti-Palin: She is COMPLELTELY out of her league.

No bias there whatsoever, eh?

Many sure did. But Obama during the late stage of the campaign tried to remodel himself as “Republican lite”... remember that mantra “tax cuts for 90% of Americans”?

There were enough fools in the middle who thought he was a moderate.

Socialism poll better with people? I think we passed into socialism years ago and have moved to fascism but he political class seems to continue to mutter socialism.

Maybe since they have all the power they don't see socialism.
