Of Obama and Communism
For those who follow me on Twitter, you may be thinking I’m going overboard when I equate the Democrats’ gains in Congress and in Obama’s taking the White House with a slide toward Communism. However, consider the following all together. It smacks of the Soviet rhetoric we heard growing up:
Biden insisting that paying more taxes is the patriotic thing to do:
“We want to take money and put it back in the pocket of middle-class people,” Biden said in an interview on ABC’s “Good Morning America.”
Noting that wealthier Americans would indeed pay more, Biden said: “It’s time to be patriotic … time to jump in, time to be part of the deal, time to help get America out of the rut.”

Pelosi telling us that a one-party state under the democrats would make Congress more “bipartisan”
“Elect us, hold us accountable, and make a judgment and then go from there. But I do tell you that if the Democrats win, and have substantial majorities, Congress of the United States will be more bipartisan,” said Pelosi.
I’m sure she meant, “But I do tell you that if the Democrats win, and have substantial majorities, the American people would be happy serfs.”
And then there’s Obama calling those bourgeois wanting to keep their hard earned money “selfish”:
“The reason that we want to do this, change our tax code, is not because I have anything against the rich. I love rich people! I want all of you to be rich. Go for it. That’s the America dream, that’s the American way, that’s terrific…
“John McCain and Sarah Palin they call this socialistic. You know I don’t know when, when they decided they wanted to make a virtue out of selfishness.

Who can forget Obama’s lamenting that the courts weren’t more redistributionist:
…and the “guardian of free speech (as long as it’s Marxist)” Pelosi rounding this off with:
“It’s interesting to hear Senator McCain talking about the dangerous Obama, Reid, Pelosi. Dangerous is not really a word that should be a part of a national debate as we go into a presidential race,” said Pelosi.

Yes, Madam Speaker. You and what you stand for are dangerous. I hope and pray the Constitution and all it stands for can withstand their assaults.
