Orszag: Obama not a socialist
Former Director of the Office of Management and Budget Peter Orszag told Fareed Zakaria on CNNs Fareed Zakaria GPS that President Barack Obamas critics are wrong to say that he has a socialist economic philosophy.
President Obama is not a socialist, Orszag said. The label reflects a yearning for pragmatic solutions to the problems that we face. And socialist just -- I mean, again, it just does not fit.
Orszag said that given the actions that the Obama administration has taken to deal with the economic crisis, labeling Obama as a socialist is misguided.
One would think that a socialist would be all in favor of jumping at the opportunity to nationalize banks, Orszag said. He has maintained the basic structure of our capitalist system despite the fact that we have gone through a very dramatic period.
“Peter Orszag lies like a rug!

That’s his hair piece (Curly Howard: “A tarantula!!!”)
Orszag probably should have said that Obama is not a doctrinaire Socialist. Socialist he is, but of a stripe of his own making because he does not demonstrate the intelligence required to have read and absorbed much to do with the history of Socialist thought.
Its all relative. Compared to a European Socialist, he isn’t, but my American standards, he certainly is. And I am not one to throw that accusation around. BHO is the most socialist President we have had since FDR.
I agree. He’s actually a communist who is using socialism as the bridge.
Not original, btw.
Exactly. He’s a proponent of economic fascism.
Who are you going to believe? A leftist or your own lying eyes?
No the Kenkan never wanted to be half a commie.

The FIRST thing Obama did as a newly elected Illinois State Senator was to attempt to declare a Muslim holiday. Obama sponsored Bill SR0110 in the 90th General Assembly to declare November 1, 1997 to be Islamic Community Center Day. It did not pass.

Acts like a socialist.
Rules like a socialist.
Smells like.....er....Obama.
Yea!He’s not a native born American either.
Orszag: Obama not a socialist
Well I’ll be a blue-eyed baboon.
When the Kenyan takes over industries and threatens re-education camp for those who object, sounds like a commie to me.
This thread is pretty telling - we all have slight disagreements about whether the right term for him is from among socialist, Marxist, fascist, etc., but one thing is clear - none of us is saying he’s a supporter of free enterprise who loves America! And this joker is PRESIDENT of this great country. Can’t wait to throw some of these bums out in November 2010 and the Big Bum himself out in November 2012.
OK Orszag... he’ a FRACKING MARXIST/Lenninist/Communist!
Don’t worry - they’ve just brought in Austan Goolsbee to give the benefit of his personal experience with wealth creation in the private sector. Wait, what? He’s another inexperienced, left-wing academic egghead who has never held a job in the private sector outside of academia? Well I’ll be damned . . . /s

The list, ping
Let me know if you would like to be on or off the ping list
See my tag line I've had up for eons.
The liars, misleaders and Obama-protectors are all over the place, aren't they!
Let's keep rootin' 'em out, gang!
Sock it to 'em!
