Obama: I'm not a socialist @ 4:53 pm by Michael O'Brien
President Obama argued this weekend that he is not, in fact, a socialist, despite veiled Republican claims to the contrary.
"Let’s take a look at the budget – the answer would be no," Obama said during his interview with the New York Times."If you look at our budget, what you have is a very disciplined, fiscally responsible budget, along with an effort to deal with some very serious problems that have been put off for a very long time."
The president said that his administration's spending priorities have been completely in line with what he'd promised as a candidate last fall, and that he's not more liberal than he let on.
"We have delivered on every promise that we’ve made so far," he said.
When pressed by reporters for the Times as to what one word he would use to characterize his political philosophy, Obama declined. "No, I’m not going to engage in that," he said.

The teleprompter quit working. LoL
I always think of a Marxist/Fascist as the point where the ‘left’ and the ‘right’ just went around their side of the circle and met at the top -— and united.
Not really he is on the same Plane!
Someone who is a Communist, but their Narcissism won't allow them to admit it because their admirers don't want to believe it.
This p.o.s. Dumbo isn’t half as good a liar as Clinton was.
Look at the screen name of the poster I responded to.
