I have no idea how Obama became the nominee of the Democrat party this year. I have a die hard union member in my family that wouldn’t cast a vote for him if he was the last guy on earth. If this person won’t vote for him, there are a lot more Democrats out there who won’t.

Obama is clueless. His comments often seem to reveal that he is talking about something he has never given thought to before. For instance those interviews last week where he said “ah” over and over again, when asked relatively easy questions.

He is a very shallow thinker. He seems to be a person who hasn’t given politics (domestic or international) all that much thought, other than when trying to get elected.

I can’t remember a guy less qualified to be president, unless it would be George McGovern.

Of course Carter comes to mind. There was another guy that hadn’t given the ramification of his decisions any thought. Perhaps that’s being too charitable though. He may have given them lots of thought.

I plan on giveing more in the next Freepathon so it is over way before the election. Maybe people will have more time to work on defeating A Hillary or A Obama if they are not confronted with the Freepathon ending around the election time.

Obama could remix Coke's kumbayah classic "I'd like to teach the world to sing". The original starts "I'd like to buy the world a home, and furnish it with love...". Coke used the word "buy" many times in the song as this was a capitalist commercial in communist wrapping. Brilliant!

Love you Jim!

You've been in our prayers.

How about favoritISM for you as a modern day inspiration?
Thank you for starting FR and please take good care of yourself.

While we are on this topic, we should include libertarianism, and welfare-statism.

The only important difference between Nazi-ism, Fascism,
Communism, Socialism and Liberalism is the spelling, and
that the last group hasn't got the brains to figure it out.

I would add Islamfascism and Obamaism to the above.

One of the synonyms for Obamaism is Egotism:

Defined by Wikipedia,
Egotism is the motivation to maintain and enhance favorable views of self. Egotism means placing oneself at the center of one’s world with direct concern for no other.

It is closely related to narcissism, or “loving one’s self,” and the possible tendency to speak or write of oneself boastfully and at great length. Egotism may coexist with delusions of one’s own importance, at the denial of others. This conceit is a character trait describing a person who acts to gain values in an amount excessively greater than that which he/she gives to others. Egotism is often accomplished by exploiting the altruism, irrationality and ignorance of others, as well as utilizing coercive force and/or fraud.

Egotism differs from both altruism, or acting to gain fewer values than are being given, and egoism, a determination to gain and give an equal amount or degree of values. Various forms of “empirical egoism” can be consistent with egotism, as long as the value of one’s own self-benefit is entirely individual.

The stage in Marxist-Leninist theory intermediate between capitalism and communism, in which collective ownership of the economy under the dictatorship of the proletariat has not yet been successfully achieved.

On some maps, you notice a point labeled: "You Are Here". From this description, this is where I feel we are presently.

Thanks for posting this Jim, the distinctions and degrees matter most.

Liberals, leftists, socialists, progressives, and communists are **ALL** ( every one of them) riding the same train.

What’s that phrase that Granddad used to call them???? Oh yeah, “Fellow-Travelers.”

I have no idea how Obama became the nominee of the Democrat party this year.

He ran against one of the most hated 'clans' to ever visit politics. But, as I mentioned before, the 'ethnic ceiling' will NOT be broken before the 'gender ceiling'.

Barack's loss is inevitable, the repurcussions unpredictable. I'm buying me an OJ mask. I suggest others do the same.

SOCIALISM, COMMUNISM, GLOBALISM, (even SATANISM), are all facets of the same evil force.

NO WAY

THE KING OF KINGS IS RETURNING . . .

It’ll be a mess between now and then . . .

But PRAISE GOD—HE WON AT CALVARY AND THE EMPTY TOMB AND THE CORONATION CELEBRATION IS GONNA BE GRAND!

OBUMMA CAN SUCK ROCKS . . . and his puppet masters big toes.

I’m not sure I agree any longer about the distinctions mattering much at all.

They are all evil to the core, from the foundation up.

They are all hell-bent on bringing about an evil world government that’s on the near horizon.

Useful thread....I’ll ping our newest ChiCom trolls to this thread. They keep claiming that there’s more media freedom, liberty, and capitalism in China than in the West and N. America.

Bravo, Jim! All who love America, our system of government and freedom must work very hard so that a socialist is not elected President of our great country!

Hope you are feeling much better!
