i hate it when even conservative commentators get taken in by the democratic rhetoric. democrats are socialists, and they would like nothing better than to nationalize as many industries as possible.

democrats are certainly anti-capitalists. 'capitalists and the greedy' are their favorite terms to alienate people from the conservative ranks and make the democrats seem more compassionate and fair. the accumulation of capital to put people to work and forward the economy is not what the democrats are all about. they despise the wealthy and tax them as much as they can -- so they have much less wealth (capital) to utilize.

democrats are control freaks and try to control the popular news medium -- same as communists and socialists. free speech is out, debate is out. control is in.

democrats want to nationalize as many industries as possible. the most recent has been airport security. but they long for the days of government owned utilities. the democrats simply do it one at a time because it is more palatable to the american public.

the democratic philosophy of fairness, like marxist theory, is based on a biblically flawed ideology. remember the parable of the talents -- and i can give more.

democrats pass laws to have people check up on us. every beaurocracy in place has people checking something, be it the safety of cars, emissions from factories, looking into our lives, etc. the socialists do this to, with an explicit reason to keep power.

yes the democrats are socialists. they are willing to overthrow the government slowly, one at a time, through evolution, instead of through revolution as marxist predicted.

"'capitalists and the greedy' are their favorite terms to alienate people from the conservative ranks"

And yet the Democrats and the Left are the true incarnation of greed. Their entire philosophy is based on stealing wealth and property from those who have actually earned it. Their appeal is to those who envy the wealth and accomplishments of others. They buy votes by promising something for nothing, something that they will forcibly take from those who have legitimately acquired it, usually through foresight and hard work.

If that's not greed, I don't know what is. I do know what is not greed, what is not greed is working hard to make something of yourself, and thereby also benefitting society as a whole.
