    This thread isn't about refuting your silly right wing insanity, you're just trying to avoid dealing with the topic. STAY ON TOPIC. Cite and list REASONS why Obama is a socialist. Period. If you can't do it, then STFU.

    It doesn't matter if you studied Marx, or had M/L friends, or visited Russia. If there is no strong evidence you believe in the above, you are not a socialist or communist.
    Demolishing The Economy To Replace It With State Control
    Obama has:
    • Handicapped American multinationals by denying them tax deferral, placing them at an enormous competitive disadvantage against corporations based anywhere else.
    • Launched entitlement programs which punish innovation and dry up funds for entrepreneurial start ups.
    • Stopped the Treasury from implementing any real recovery plans, discouraging private capital flow into the financial sector.
    • Stated "we have to spread the wealth around, we have to redistribute the wealth of this country through taxation," which is a paraphrasing of Marx's "from each according to his ability, to each according to his need."
    • Declared a "War On Business" as shown by his legislation that pharmaceutical corporations pay high rebate fees to Medicaid and promoting the importation of foreign drugs which could include low potency or outright counterfeit drugs into the nation. The financial outlook for US pharmaceutical companies has been decimated.
    • Placed nearly two thirds of a trillion dollars into a health reform reserve fund, which is the tip of the iceberg in the expectations of the cost of fully socialized medicine in America. USA Today has stated that every household in the United States would be on the hook for over half a million dollars.
    All of these policies represent time-honored Communist policies specifically designed to devastate the free market economy as well as impoverish and punish the upper and middle classes leading to their elimination so that the Communist "Dictatorship Of The Proletariat" can be introduced. It is important to note that in each and every historical instance Communism has been introduced into democratic countries and they were all swiftly changed to totalitarian dictatorships of a single leader benefiting from a "Cult Of Personality."
    Policies virtually identical to these were implemented by:
    Vladimir Ilyich Lenin in 1917 Russia
    Josip Broz Tito in 1945 Yugoslavia
    Mao Zedong (Tse-tung) in 1949 China
    Fidel Castro in 1959 Cuba
    Hugo Chavez in 1999 Venezuela

    and now they are being implemented by
    Barack Hussein Obama in 2009 United States of America.

    His past IS proof. Why do you think Communist Party USA supports Obama in 2012?

    Haha he ain't no socialist. Obama's another Wall Street puppet and big business whore. And he loves his wars as much as GW. Which makes him a chicken hawk.

    None of the above-mentioned things have anything to do with creating a classless cooperatively owned worker state.
    So they consequently have nothing to do with communism.

    Note for the future: the definition of communism =/= anything Freedom and Liberty happens not to like.

    BS. Obama simply correctly noted that creating an economic recovery requires working together with the financial sector and big business. There is no other way.

    He's personal property belonging to Wall Street bankers, insurance companies, weapons manufacturers, lobbyists, etc. It's not the private sector because it overlaps with government and it's not the public sector either.

    It doesn't matter if you call him a "capitalist," a "socialist" or a "communist" -- these labels are supposed to describe someone's belief system. But why should a politician like Obama have a belief system? It's not his job. His job is to get elected and beliefs only get in the way. He's a brand, and that's all he is.
    Quando vem a madrugada, meu pensamento vagueia
    Corro os dedos na viola, contemplando a lua cheia
    Apesar de tudo existe, uma fonte de água pura
    Quem beber daquela água, não terá mais amargura

    Desilusão, desilusão
    Danço eu dança você
    Na dança da solidão

    Lets see.

    Obama's mentors were Marxist socialists. Many of his friends, cabinet officials / czars have connections and are connected to Marxist socialists. The SEIU, one of Obama's biggest supporters is connected to the communist party

    There is no guessing at what Obama believes, he says what he believes and what he believes is hard left Statism, Marxism, Utopianism, whatever you want to call it.

    His rhetoric of spreading the wealth, redistribution of wealth comes straight from Marxist theory.
    He believes in collective actions and suppressed individualism.

    From the takeovers of the automobile industry to healthcare to banking to the attacks on religious institutions to the recent attack on the Catholic Church, it all makes it very clear.


    Maybe you deniers can explain why the leader of the CPUSA sees Obama as their ally on their quest for socialism?


    Maybe you can explain why Obama was a member of the Illinois New Party, an openly socialist political party. http://keywiki.org/index.php/Barack_...essive_Chicago

    I don't care what you want to call him or if you want to continue to deny reality. The fact is clearly that he's a radical, far left statist and much of his core revolves around Marxist / collectivist ideology. The reality is that there is a large contingent of like minded statists running around Congress with the same un-American values.

    The programs aren't "socialist" just because they're entitlements.

    Socialism is great until you run out of other people's money.

    Really? Like who?

    Many of his friends, cabinet officials / czars have connections and are connected to Marxist socialists.
    As did Bush, since most of his cabinet officials were neo-cons, and therefore "connected" to former Trtoskyiites.

    The SEIU, one of Obama's biggest supporters is connected to the communist party
    Evidence? And even if they were, that doesn't mean Obama believes in communism.

    btw, note that guilt by association is a bunch of horseshit which is no longer accepted in American political discourse, or the law.

    His rhetoric of spreading the wealth, redistribution of wealth comes straight from Marxist theory.
    Evidence? Please cite a reference to Das Kapital indicating where Marx said that we should un-skew the capitalist income distribution instead of creating a classless worker state.

    He believes in collective actions and suppressed individualism.
    Evidence?

    From the takeovers of the automobile industry to healthcare to banking to the attacks on religious institutions to the recent attack on the Catholic Church, it all makes it very clear.
    Preventing capitalist industries from collapsing has nothing to do with dialectical materialism.

    Maybe you deniers can explain why the leader of the CPUSA sees Obama as their ally on their quest for socialism?
    Maybe you can explain how the leader of the CPUSA stating he sees Obama as his ally in his quest for socialism means Obama believes in socialism.

    For example, Hitler saw Bismarck as an ally in implementing his ideology of national socialism, but Bismarck did not believe in Naziism.

    Maybe you can explain why Obama was a member of the Illinois New Party, an openly socialist political party. http://keywiki.org/index.php/Barack_...essive_Chicago
    He wasn't. Key Wiki is not an authoritative source. There is no evidence Obama was ever a member of the Chicago New Party, except in the minds of hysterical right-wing bloggers.

    I don't care what you want to call him or if you want to continue to deny reality. The fact is clearly that he's a radical, far left statist and much of his core revolves around Marxist / collectivist ideology. The reality is that there is a large contingent of like minded statists running around Congress with the same un-American values.
    Obama has never said anything suggesting he accepts dialectical materialism as his political ideology, nor do his actions indicate such. It has no more substance than the similarly ridiculous right wing claims Republicans have been making since he was elected: ie, that Obama is an alcoholic, a Muslim, a Kenyan, a fascist, etc.
