The Wall Street buyout was a form of Socialism.
The whole plot to call Universal Healthcare, Socialized Healthcare was another instance of this ridiculous ploy by the right wing.

Socialism has been in the US Government for a while now folks. Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security, Unemployment, etc. are all forms of Socialism.

And deriding Socialism as a “bad” thing is almost comical. Socialism has many benefits that Capitalism and vice-versa.

The best system would incorporate the best of both forms.

It’s ok right wingers, you can stop shouting Socialism, we’re not going to turn into a communist country. It’ll be ok.

I live in CA and believe me, the governator is also a R.I.N.O.

He is a rather big spender. I know he has an extremely liberal legislature but he is, like Bush, very hesitant to use his veto pen. His refusal to do anything about the estimated eleven billion dollars of taxpayers money being spent on illegals is unconsionable. We are 15 billion in the hole. Eliminating much of the 11 billion on illegals would do much to help are fiscal crisis.

Let’s face it. The politicians on both sides have done so much harm to our country that we are nearing a point of no return to our forefather’s beliefs of what this country was to be about.

I also strongly believe that if we the people could find a way to put in term limits (max 2 terms) for all elected and appointed positions from dog catcher to President we might eliminate “some” of the corruption in our current system. Lobbyist should be banned. These bribers and blackmailers are another of the destructive force eating away at our democracy.

With regard to Paul’s comment about “Docs looking at his medical records give him 60% odds of dieing in the next four years…”, it’s not that bad, is it? Personally, whether he’ll add to the woe or not, if McCain does become president, I think the added stress of being president would do quite a bit of harm to him, but I still think that he’d survive 4 years, unless he goes moose-hunting with Palin, ala Cheney’s “accident”. I’d bet that Palin’s a better shot than Cheney, though, and she probably uses bigger ammo.

With regard to Steve’s comment about McCain not being his choice as a republican, I have a similar but very different view. I, too, am a republican, but instead of Romney, I’d rather the US amend the constitution and let Arnold Schwarzenegger run. Schwarzenegger as prez and Romney as VP? I can live with that.

He is going to loose. The bigger problem is that whichever man wins, this country is going to be much worse off, even compared to the disaster of the Bush administration. It is going to be a very long 4 years and this country will suffer greatly.

In 2012, when Romney runs and wins, things will begin to get better but even Romney will have his work cut out for him regardless of which of the two current idiots win.

McAmnesty’s choice of Palin was his worst possible choice for VP. He should have chosen Romney.

His stance on giving the tens of millions of illegals amnesty was the main reason he did not get my vote.

I think McAmnesty should retire from politics, period. He is a true R.I.N.O. (republican in name only).

He is thanked for his service to his country, both military and civilian.

Hope he has the graciousness and sincere ‘country first’ attitude to help heal and fix this country for the remainder of his senate term.

If he is elected president, I will pray everyday for four years that he lives through it. The thought of Governor Palin in the Oval Office as Commander-In-Chief is a nightmare as scary as any imaginable.
