There is no such thing as pure Marxism. The “purism” canard is a just facile way for a Marxist to distance himself from unpleasant memories of the wretched authoritarianism associated with that label. To the extent Obama wields power by appealing to populist illusions of economic equality through governmental coercion, it is fair enough to call him a Marxist.

BTW, nice Alinskyism tactic there. Rush does entertain. Diminishing his beliefs as insincere or intellectually unsound simply because he earns money for being interesting is a causal fallacy of the first order. But many never catch it, so it is effective.

“pure Marxism” and “Alinskism”. More ill defined bombastic insults. Call me ‘fascist’ too, why not!

Your radio heroes are entertainers, get used to it.
