Obama scoffs at people who call him a 'socialist': 'You gotta meet real socialists'
By JENNIFER EPSTEIN | 11/19/13 4:32 PM EST
President Obama on Tuesday dismissed critics who call him a "socialist," suggesting they meet some real socialists if they think he's one.
"People call me a socialist sometimes," he said at the Wall Street Journal CEO Summit, addressing 100 top business leaders.
"But, no, you gotta meet real socialists. You’ll have a sense of what a socialist is," he said to laughter from the crowd.
"I'm talking about lowering the corporate tax rate, my health care reform is based on the private marketplace, stock market's looking pretty good last time I checked," he said, listing his capitalist bona fides. "And, you know, it is true I'm concerned about growing inequality in our system, but nobody questions the efficacy of market economies

No, he’s a COMMUNIST.
‘You gotta meet real socialists’
‘You can find lots of them in the West Wing.’
He also said “ I am not black. You need to meet someone who is really black”
At times I can’t figure out what is the difference between all these names but I think Communist is a mild term when describing Obama.
What is more hard core than Communist? Whatever it is, it applies to the One.
He must mean he’s not a socialist, he’s a communist...
Comrade Obama doth protest too much, methinks...
Pure BS. They have/will have destroyed the private sector health system and will promote single payer as the fix to the "failure of the private marketplace"
Well, given his family, he would know.
I do think Obama is more of a crony capitalist, in the Chicago/Nazi Germany model.
They use socialism as a means to further graft.
I love when he recites scripture, his word is divine, yaknow to many. His tongue actually splits in two tho.. uhhh, which makes it harder to keep his reptilian side from coming out.. but have no doubt who or what he is, he is a socialist at minimum. and likely worse.
Whatever label he wants to place on himself he certainly is not a loyal American.
He and his fellow Progressives are a cancer inside this country just like his Muslim friends. They are a highly aggressive form of cancer and must be excised.
First and foremost...
Islamist
Muslim Brotherhood member (more than likely)
terrorist sympathizer
anti-American zealot
overt destroyer
Obama is not a communist as he has no interest in the government owning the means of production. He is a fascist who believes the government should control private owners and tell them how to run the means of production. A fascist is more insidious than a communist becuase they want all of the control but none of the responsibility to produce.
Now if I was at a function and I was in the Joe the Plumber sort of place and I were to publicly tell THE ONE, the truth. It would go something like “you’re a lying sack of excrement”. Would I
A. Be arrested
B. Mysteriously die soon after
C. Be audited
Or
D. All of the above.
... someone needs to take him to task.
Nah, I don’t think so. He is an ideological purist, like an overgrown college radical. He looks down on those types of guys, because they are “sell outs”. He’ll ally with them when they are useful, but he fancies himself as more noble than that.
“You gotta meet real socialists...like my real Da...I mean like Frank Marshall Davis....”
That's all that it is ...TALK !!
No action !
No leadership !
No discussion , no compromise !
Just talk ,.. and talk ,...and talk !!
Typical Narcissist !
0bama is a radical leftist. He is a statist and a collectivist.
Was member of Chicago’s Socialist Party who endorsed him for his run as Senator
