If you like socialism

[Tilnam]

Vote for Obama!

[Crazy Bard]

Ok, thanks

[Daniel]

Will do.

[Moist Happenings]

Whether you're voting for Obama or McCain, this could very well be the fastest two red bar rep session ever on the OP.

[Jorddyn]

The only person dumber than the OP is the person who is swayed by his argument.

[Moist Happenings]

Remember what I said about Sean of the Thread, Tilnam. He's from the south. You watch yourself.

[BriarFox]

I'd be tempted to vote for McCain if I thought he really had any idea what he was talking about when he was calling Obama a socialist. I doubt he could define the term without using the phrase "Commie bastard."

[Moist Happenings]

Communism: You have two cows. The government takes both cows, and provides you with milk.

Republicanism: Disney owns two cows. The government gives Disney a hundred more, and Disney gives you a sip a day to milk them all.

Liberalism: Disney is starving you to death and keeping all the milk for itself. The government provides you the means to buy a cow, and you milk it yourself.

[Skeeter]

I like Socialism!

(Yes yes, I know she means that the burden will ease and she'll be able to pay without worrying about putting as in her car or paying or mortgage. Or at least I hope thats what she means... Just thought the video was fitting for the thread.)

I'll wager that the vast majority of people using the "Obama is socialist!" line have no concept of what socialism (or capitalism) actually is.

[Sean of the Thread]

OH SAYETH THE ALMIGHTY QUEERTOES WHO KNOWS EVERYTHING and didn't get hugs when he was a kid except from the ice cream man.

Give it a rest. I'll wage that the vast majority doed in fact know wtf they're saying when using "Obama is socialist" otherwise they wouldn't being saying it.

Not to mention vast majority is a pretty damned large blanket of a statement.

Wow, you're a master at logic. Get that folks? If someone says something, they obviously really understand! Gives a whole new optimistic spin on the last 8 years of the Executive Branch.

Now why don't you spend less time trolling the forums and more time getting a fucking job and feeding your kids?

Do you really mean "no concept" or "a clear concept"? If the former, I would take that wager.

Many people may not have studied the origins and tenets of Socialism and Capitalism, but "the vast majority" would have some concept of the two economic theories.

My wife (who is as unpolitical as they get.. she votes what I tell her to vote.. which makes me happy) asked me a question today. She said "Why do well to do people vote Republican and poorer people vote Democrat"

[Tsa`ah]

I do not like the road system, the police of any level, the fire departments, public works projects of any sort, or schools ... so I guess I also hate socialism.

Wow you're the master of logic! Get that folks? If people say "Obama is a socialist" they most likely have no concept of what socialism (or capitalizsm) actually is!

[Tsa`ah]

Pretty much.

Yea. I'd say that pretty well sums up the retardness of those accusations.

McCain's plan to have the Government spend 300 bil. buying out bad mortgages is the epitome of anti-Socialist policy!

300 mil all of the sudden doesn't seem like that much when they borrowed 700 bil

[Mighty Nikkisaurus]

Sorry that was a typo on my part.

300 billion.

It's a fuckload when he had been saying from the beginning that no one should be bailed out. He seriously disappointed me when he voted in the bailout and now saying we should bail out the individuals as well.

That is actually a step up from Palin "spreading" oil revenues around to her fellow Alaskans.

[nub]

Sorry that was a typo on my part.

300 billion.

lol yeah pretty big typo, then in that case, I don't approve.

(and actually I do remember it being 300 billion anyway)

[Stanley Burrell]

Either way, on par with things I like:
