You are so incapable of comprehension that it's not funny anymore. It's just sad. You live in fear because it's your only excuse for prejudice (just so you know, prejudice means pre-judging. It's a simple definition that I doubt even you will remember or be able to use to put an end to your bitterness, but what the hell). You have no evidence that President Obama or anyone commenting in this forum is a socialist. I doubt that you even know the meaning. You can't even stay on topic or come up with a real argument to support your views, just quotes from severely mentally impaired "journalists". What life experience do you have? I'm guessing none because, again, you rely on what others say- others who have not confirmed anything, just their opinions. Again, this thread is about ROMNEY'S gaffes. And for those who would like to discuss Romenyshambles, have you read this: http://www.newyorker.com/online/blogs/borowitzreport/2012/07/romneys-gaffes-worsen-in-israel.html Lol. Just something to lighten the mood a little more. ------------------ "We're stumbling around in a very dark age basically trying not to kill each other."- Powder IP: Logged |

You must be totally nuts..or you think everyone else is.O'Bomber's whole existence is centered around Socialism...from his early formative years with Frank Marshall Davis...Socialist and member of the Communist Party, his mother, another Socialist, his grandparents, Socialists, his associations with the demoscatic Socialists of America, his gravitation to Socialist university professors and Socialist causes to his current quackery of redistribution economic politics....which never work, haven't worked and won't work. Socialist, pure and simple and only simpletons don't get it or think they can get away with lying about it. Of all the people on this site acoustic, you're the least qualified to talk about analytical ability or subjects requiring analysis. You simply don't have the requisite competence. IP: Logged |

The first sign of a simpleton who is clearly out of their league in debate, but cannot fathom it is name calling. Go ahead, make yourself feel better by resorting to such a pathetic act. It's all that you can do with a one digit IQ. IP: Logged |

then why do you need to back him up all the time, ami? intellectual is not a word i associate with jwhop.and socialist friends do not make one a socialist. goverment ownership of the means of production is socialism. our government doesn't own diddly squat in that sense. all the supposed "takeovers" the conservatives shriek about were LOANS and have mostly been paid back. the fact that those loans carried a few restrictions, well that's business as i'm sure jwhop knows very well.

but my bad accusing romney of raising FOREIGN contributions. there is no proof, though his israeli fundraiser was apparently behind closed doors so who knows for sure? innocent till proven guilty.what is known is only that both obama and romney have raised money from AMERICANS ABROAD. so no case at this point, though investigation might prove otherwise.

You flatter Obama by calling him a socialist. Socialists are for the redistribution of wealth amongst the people. The Obama administration is more about flat-out taking our money.

Actually, Obama is a Marxist. You have to take the money before you can redistribute it. He aims to destroy the middle class. Marxism is the bridge between capitalism and socialism.IP: Logged |

He's a bad Marxist then. I've heard him praise American capitalism in a speech made in another country, his inauguration speech was almost identical to Bush before him (the one part that was different, about volunteers, sounded a lot like Bush Sr.'s "thousand points of light"), and is a willing crony to his big business contributors. Maybe he needs some time with a hammer & sickle saying twenty, "Hail, Karl..." Btw, just for the record, my Australian friend (an actual Leftist) doesn't care for Obama, finding him too right wing. Still, I'm sure he thinks Obama is (slightly) preferable to Romney, McCain, and Bush. IP: Logged |

YES YES YES I can't stand it when no one will call it what it is. I feel as if I am going crazy when that happens.

Crony Capitalism is a long American tradition that Obama takes part in so this is how wealth pretty much gets redistributed:

^ Second one is brilliant! Ha!Yeah, I consider crony capitalism, bailouts, and quantitative easing all forms of theft. Regular capitalism doesn't bother me unless the game is so rigged, it's not pure capitalism anymore, but a complicated system of control and underhanded dealing. Which, of course, is how it's been all my life and longer. IP: Logged |

Pixie, lol. A Marxist leader would have equally redistributed wealth and confiscated estates to carve them up into apartments or government buildings, yet the rich have not been cast out of their homes and still have money in the bank. We haven't been issued rations cards and no one is being forced to work in designated fields. You should really go live in a communist country or speak to people who have grown up in them. If you did, you wouldn't call the president a Marxist or socialist. Ami, please point me towards such posts where Jwhop has not behaved like a child, calling people names just because he can't figure out how to win a debate. If he could hold his own, he wouldn't feel it necessary to call people stupid or "nuts". ------------------ "We're stumbling around in a very dark age basically trying not to kill each other."- Powder IP: Logged |

I accidentally read the title too fast and thought that it said, "is the MSM reporting on Romney's European giraffes" and I was like "what?! how does he have giraffes in Europe?" Sorry about that!I personally haven't really seen much about the election in the news, which has surprised me. In 2008, I remember hearing about it a lot more. Then again, in 2008, there was no incumbent. The same thing happened in 2004: didn't hear a whole lot about it, whereas in 2000, it was a big deal. Again, 2004 had an incumbent, 2000 didn't. Maybe that's why? Anyone else feel that way? IP: Logged |

Giraffes are cute! I'm picturing a European giraffe like at a cafe, just sipping coffee while people stroll by like it's no big deal lol. Just casually being a giraffe in Europe. Yup. Haha, now I'm picturing its American counterpart, like in a cowboy hat and chaps. *sigh* I have problems. And caffeine. IP: Logged |

God, what tripe.Marxists and all communists ARE Socialists...though all Socialists are not Marxists, Leninists or Maoists. Socialism is the umbrella under which all collectivists gather. Oh, and this is priceless. O'Bomber isn't a Marxist because he hasn't confiscated all wealth and redistributed it equally. Question(s) from a rational to the irrational. What do you suppose the other 2 equal branches of the US government would be doing if O'Bomber attempted to pull a Hugo Chavez or Fidel Castro, declare himself El Presidente for life and proceeded to confiscate the wealth of American citizens? My crystal ball sees an impeachment proceeding in the US House of Representatives, followed by a trial in the US Senate presided over by the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court, a conviction of O'Bomber, removal from office, followed by a trial for Treason against the United States and US citizens, a conviction, followed by an execution. That's one view from the crystal ball but there's another. What do you suppose the 300+ million US citizens would be doing if O'Bomber...or anyone else attempted to implement Communist government in the US? This view involves the 2nd Amendment and an armed citizenry, armed with approximately 300 million privately owned firearms. An armed citizenry who remain armed for the specific constitutional purpose of being the last line of defense against government tyranny, ie., a dictatorship. Self preservation is a damned strong motivator for not attempting to overthrow the US government and the US Constitution to implement a Marxist/Leninist/Maoist Communist dictatorship. Oh, I thought this was funny too. O'Bomber sometimes says nice things about free markets and business. It really is the silly season isn't it? O'Bomber has been making war on free markets and American business since the first day he began infesting the White House. O'Bomber is the most anti-business president in US history. But, it's almost election time. The O'Bomber Mushroom brigades need to be fed some more bullshiiit and kept in the dark. O'Bomber would never have been elected on his true agenda...which has become clear. No Marxist Socialist could ever be elected or reelected in a society of free citizens once their true agenda is discovered. O'Bomber got into office the old fashioned Socialist way. He lied through his teeth and he still is lying.

The line in the sand has been crossed a million times over, and people do nothing, because there's nothing to do. My view involves the NSA knowing what the rednecks have in mind before any kind of "strategy" is even formed, and preventing rebellion. My view takes drones and the realities of preventive detention into account, so any attempt at revolution will backfire with overwhelming force. That's what's in my crystal ball. IP: Logged |

What's this? Jwhop, this resembles common sense. It is a shame that you follow it up with a lie about Obama being anti-business, but I'm so proud that you can finally bring yourself to admit that a Communist or Socialist takeover of our government just isn't on the table, and never has been.

acoustic, you must have a massive migraine again. You're trying to think.O'Bomber is the most anti-business president in the history of the United States. Just because O'Bomber spent 10 Billion..or more of US taxpayer money to pay back his big campaign contributors who invest in so called green energy, that doesn't make O'Bomber business friendly. That only makes O'Bomber politically and financially corrupt. That also doesn't make O'Bomber a crony capitalist. That makes O'Bomber a crony Socialist. The mis-allocation of funds in the markets by government attempts to pick winners and losers in the market place IS NOT capitalism in any of it's forms. It's Socialist political and financial corruption of free markets. And, that's as anti-business as it gets. Add to that O'Bomber's attempts to raise taxes on small business..via O'BomberCare, a blizzard of new business regulation..including Banking regulation and an outright tax hike on small businesses...many or most of which are sub-chapter S corporations with incomes above O'Bomber's idiotic $200,000 limit...and you have IN FACT, the most anti-business president in US history. Now acoustic,(Rx), go take 3 aspirin for your migraine and call Dr Hop in the morning. "The line in the sand has been crossed a million times over, and people do nothing, because there's nothing to do."...Faith Sorry to be the bearer of bad news Faith...but the idea there's been a seizure of the US government, overthrow of the US Constitution to install a Soviet Union style Communist government...is a big whiff..and a non starter, just for openers. Your further assumption that the NSA, CIA, Dept of Defense, FBI, uniformed police officers, members of the US military et.al. would assist O'Bomber or anyone else in overthrowing the US government and Constitution in order to install a Soviet Union style Communist government is equally fallacious. A few years ago, Randall posted a study done by the DoD which asked military personnel if they would fire on American citizens if orded to do so. 80% or more said NO. My guess is that any officer giving such an illegal order would have his lifeline terminated abruptly. IP: Logged |

I would venture that you've never googled, "Obama small business." If you had, you might see some rather inconvenient things.You just continue to apply labels that are false. You might also want to google, "Republicans block Obama jobs," if that wasn't enough hard news to take. IP: Logged |
