On CNN today Scott McClellan became the latest one-time Bush loyalist to back Barack.
"From the very beginning I have said I am going to support the candidate that has the best chance for changing the way Washington works and getting things done and I will be voting for Barack Obama and clapping."
Another turn coat socialist. Who’s proposed policies fit this description from the dictionary?
Socialism refers to a broad set of economic theories of social organization advocating state or collective ownership and administration of the means of production and distribution of goods, and the creation of an egalitarian society. Modern socialism originated in the late nineteenth-century working class political movement. Karl Marx posited that socialism would be achieved via class struggle and a proletarian revolution, it being the transitional stage between capitalism and communism.
Socialists mainly share the belief that capitalism unfairly concentrates power and wealth into a small section of society who control capital, and creates an unequal society. All socialists advocate the creation of an egalitarian society, in which wealth and power are distributed more evenly, although there is considerable disagreement among socialists over how, and to what extent this could be achieved.
Barack Obama and his policies fit perfectly. He is a Socialist who does not share his wealth yet he wants you to let him control yours.

The Scott McClellan who wrote the stupid "tell all" book, worst seller, about his former boss and mentor? I just saw the book on the final dicount shelf at B&N!
The Scott McClellan who is now a social pyrranah because it is really not a cool political move to do tell all books that appear to be a vendetta and many of the facts are disputable!
I would tell Scott McClellan, THANKS, BUT NO THANKS!

Actually, you are completely correct. D Deetz. But let me ask you this, what are your real issues with Socialism? If you really think about what "side effects" socialism has on modern society, you wouldn't be so quick to argue. First, our country has a severe disproportion of wealth. Just about 1% of the population control 75% of our country's wealth. This type of wealth distribution (ultimately due to capitalism), causes and perpetuates greed and corruption at the highest levels. (That is my opinion) So let me get back to some facts. Fact: Most western European nations are socialist contries with socialized health care systems, socialized banking, socialized governments, and a more even distribution of wealth amoung the population. Fact: These same countries have lower IMR's, and DALY's(Infant Mortality Rates, and Disability Adjusted Life Years = the global standards used to grade the overall health of a nation, and ), governments that actually work for the people, lower, actually much lower rates of poverty, and have completely balanced budgets with GDP's that can easily rival ours. Not to mention the fact that the Euro is completey kicking the dollars ass right now! Do you know what place the US ranks in IMR? 29. Yes, we are 28 places down from the number one spot, with countries like Liberia ranking in higher spots for lower IMRs. The United States has the second worst newborn mortality rate in the developed world, coming in behind Bangladesh. In addition, rates of infant mortality are inversely proportional to GDP. So why would our rate be so high if we have such a high GDP? It is by far the uneven distribution of wealth. I am not advocating for the redistribution of wealth, but I will say that the amount of poor continues to triple and the gap continues to widen. This my friend, is the divide that will slowly rip our country to pieces. I do not make six figure salary today in 2008. However, I'm sure that I will once I finish my residency in 2015. Does that mean I should vote for McCain so that I can pay lower taxes in 7 years. No. Do you know why? Because I agree that it is American to pay taxes. Our tax revenue funnels billions of dollars into government and state agencies that feed the hungry, help the poor and heal the sick. If all of that sounds too samaritan to you, then lets just say that our money keeps clean water plants open, cops on the streets, and newer books in school childrens' hands. If I have to pay a higher tax on a higher bracket of income so be it. I would be glad to do so under an administration that will make my government work for my country.

How come this last message about the guy who wants to move to France if McCain wins, does not have a name. If he feels so strong about it he should let people read his name, or is he afraid to? Perhaps he should move now and finish his residency over there.

It is fascinating to have read these posts as the campaigns evolved. The Republicans mantras change along with the condstant changes in McCain's messages; the latest litany is Obama advocates Socialism, and therefore is a communist. Give us all intelligent people a break! How many of you really know who has become the biggest socialist of all times lately? His name is George W. Bush who has effectively nationalized the banking industry by giving Treasurer Scty. Paulsen 250 BIlLION to buy into banking options!!!! Darrell M. West, the director of governance studies at the Brookings Institution, a public policy research group, said, “The biggest socialist right now is George W. Bush.” Amen to that!

Apparently the latest current mantra being sung by dears John and Sarah this week (dems are socialists and commies) has been picked up by the rabid followers of the McCain/Palin cult. Both of them have kept on jumping from one "strategy" to another to the extent that they have started to worry the RNC who now feel they better put their $$$ to salvage a party in ruins by helping their people running for congress.
But then again, worry not...We have been led to understand that good ole' McCain is kicking off a "Joe the Plumber" tour in his campaign next week. What a three ring circus has this campaign become!!! But maybe he will give a chance to his Ring Master Palin to unveil another member in the cast of characters participating on this laughable theatre of the absurd: a guy by the name of Ed The Dairy Man, whom she discovered in Roswell New Mexico this past Sunday. Frankly, it is wwith glee that I am looking forward to "Fiddler the Roofer," Jose the "Taco Vendor," "Tinker Bell the Flyer," "Hanna Montana the Nana," "Dick The Used Cars Salesman," "Pete the Pill Chaser," "Bucky the Bus Driver," "Sponge Bob, The House Cleaner," "Lucky The Locksmith," and most important, "Freddy the Scizzorhand," who has taken up tailoring as a an occupation. This later guy should do well following Palin on the road, since she will need to have the clothes she bought at Neiman Marcus and Saks refit from time to time.

OBAMA'S PATHETIC JUDGMENT IS IMPORTANT.
OBAMA'S 20-YEAR RELATIONSHIP WITH THE RADICAL "GOD DAMN AMERICA" PASTOR WRIGHT IS IMPORTANT.
OBAMA'S 17-YEAR RELATIONSHIP WITH BILL AYERS IS IMPORTANT.
OBAMA'S RELATIONSHIP WITH TERRORISTS AND ANTI-AMERICANS IS IMPORTANT.
ALL THE LIES OBAMA HAS TOLD IS IMPORTANT. HE CANNOT BE TRUSTED.
OBAMA WILL TAX AND SPEND. ALL HARD-WORKING AMERICANS WILL BE TAXED MORE. THOSE NON-WORKING DEADBEATS ON WELFARE AND FINANCIAL AID WILL RECEIVE A "REFUND" FOR ALL OUR HARD WORK. THIS IS IMPORTANT.
VOTE FOR THE HONORABLE JOHN McCAIN IN NOVEMBER.

Why are the stupid conservatives attacking this guy for supporting Obama? The guy finally saw the light and endorsed Obama. The rest of the Republican voters still have a chance to see the light and vote for Obama. How many now?: Bernacki, Powell, Hagel,and others and counting. Even Karl Rove is distancing himself from John McCain. People are running from him like he has body odor a plague. Everybody should vote for Obama, so we can all go to sleep early on Nov 4th and wake up into a new more promising day.

John and Sara first found JOE THE PLUMBER, but he was lying about haveing a license to practice the craft required in the business he "wanted to buy". Oh--he doe snot pay taxes anyhow--he has a lien form tax delinquency...Now they are parading out other great, but common Americans just like you and me. They are--MR. CLEAN, AUNT JEMIMA, UNCLE BEN, SARA LEE, MRS. BUDDs, JANE PARKER (from the old A and P Supermarket), and even TropicAna. What a charade the Repukes have become since Reagan. I think personally that they pray too much. Of course, they would rather PREY ON PEOPLE under the guise of compassionate conservatism, but when that fails they simply stand outside the page hall yelling for the pages to ocme down or cheat on their wives, or hire drug fueled trysts with call-boys when they should be preaching. Oh, sometimes they go away to be purified form their sinful ways and bounbce back--renewed and ready to lead again! Makes me sick--losers all...they might fool many, but this time I think they have not folled enough--they have only made fools of themselves.

MEC--they have the names--I just got an email from the Repuke-lican campaign. Sarah stopped by the Stop and Shop prior to one of her trips to Saks and Neiman's and she stuffed them all in her cart like so much ammo to use when she is asked a really hard question like "can you name a news magazine you read?" and she cannot think of any answer except ALL OF THEM. For some reason she was yelling SOCIALISTS at the checkout counter. If the Republican campaign were not so pitiful and laughable this year, it would be sad, but imagine anyone with ANY intelligence thinking of trusting this country in it's current shape (due to Bush) to someone like Palin? It is beyond anything in fiction. Pray for the ignorant...
