You call Obama a communist.
However, at the same time, you want to stifle any speech or opposing views that differ from yours?
I would love to hear your justification to your son for not being able to watch our democratically elected president's speech...
"Son, Obama is a communist. He wants to brainwash everyone into believing as he does. That is why I cannot have you listening to what he has to say."
Take an minute and think about that. It may be a teaching moment. :blink:
I've called him many things, but the one constant is yes...a communist. His wife hates America as witnessed by her speech about never being proud of her nation. He has taken over private corporations "in the name of economic stimulus and bailout." He's trying to take over health care. He is anti-gun (but what dictator isn't), excessive taxation while claiming to care for the "less advantaged."
Guess what...on April 1st...I lost my job. I am unemployed. Only recently did I start working part time. I'm still "officially" unemployed since I'm not full time employed again. I am getting benefits that I worked for all these years that I never was without a job. Its NOT a free hand out, this is money paid into the system on my behalf due to the endless hours of work over the years. I trade off the dollars I earn now for the dollars I receive in unemployment. I'm no longer a "drain" on society. I am, at least, in part a contributor again.
I was without health coverage until, wait for it...I SOUGHT OUT A POLICY AND PAY FOR IT MYSELF so that I am not uninsured. Is it expensive? Heck yes. But what a concept. An under privelidged American who is not standing with a hand out expecting everyone else to accomodate him. An American who is taking the steps necessary to provide for himself and my family's needs without the "Savior Obama" and his government will meet all your neeeds communist ideals.
I was appauled when I stopped by a local restaurant the other day that has take home and bake pizza and saw "Food stamps accepted here." That's not the exact wording, they've made up a new term for them so that it seems more sensitive. Excuse me? You cannot afford to put food on your own table, and expect the taxpayers to put food on both their own and your table. And you should be able to go out to eat like those who work for the money to pay for their food? Sorry. That's not acceptable. I'm for helping people in need, but sorry...if you don't have the ability to do it yourself, you don't automatically have the right to live at the same standard that someone else earning a wage can do.
I have had to make all sorts of cuts to make ends meet. Its not fun, but necessary. I can't do anything about the house payment, the car payment, etc. Those are fixed costs that I created when I was working and making double what I am now. No one will refinance, etc. a person who is unemployed, especially not in this economy. So I make the cuts where needed. I don't expect others to pay my way.
But with people like Obama, everyone should live at the same level. Problem is...is it never raising the bottom up...its always taking down the top so that no one is better off then another. And that is exactly what communism is. And Obama's agenda is exactly that...straight out of the playbooks of all the dictatorial oppressive nations.
The communists in the former Soviet Union weren't really communists in the sense of what Karl Marx envisioned, but extreme socialists. But their form of government was known as communism. Well, Obama is an extreme socialist. That is why the communist supporters love this clown. He's of their like mind. So yes...Obama's a communist.
Clearly we'll never see eye to eye on this. So you support Obama and is agenda if you want to. I'll keep looking for the next Ronald Reagan to return to the National Residence to make this nation great once again.
