Socialism: The Great Whore of Babylon Revealed

Your math doesn't add up

Not that you do any math, or provide any numbers, or do much of anything except collect a bunch of random scary words together and hurl them at Obama.

Even if Obama raises taxes on the rich to where he says he will, the very wealthy will still pay lower taxes overall than they did under Clinton, and most of them will pay lower taxes overall than they did under most of Reagan's presidency.

So how does the Obama tax plan mark a sudden return to socialism? Was the US socialist under Reagan and Clinton?

My Math?

Gracious of you to attempt a rebuttal ruse of mathematics friend, but it's not mathematics I was discussing or expounding upon.

More like the principles and philosophies and political theory of demonstrably failed socialism and Obama's adherence to Marxist theory and principle than anything else or anything involving math for that matter.

Now, since you seem to be a math major? Perhaps you can demonstrate the basic 2+2=8 of Obama's tax the rich and grow the economy proposals, while demonstrating your own working knowledge of his spread the wealth mastery of giving money to those via the taxation of others.

On second thought? Spare me the Marxist rhetoric and the socialist propaganda. How about you just address the fallacy of socialism as a viable and sustainable form of economic governance. You can defend your love cant you?

And besides, I love being entertained by the myrmidon mentality of rote reality, as learned, applied, practiced and demonstrated by the blind faithful congregation of Marx.

Huh?

"myrmidon mentality of rote reality"? What does that even mean?

Is English your second language?

Slow learners?

And the mentally challenged always question the obvious.

Myrmidons? Akin to lemmings or weasels. Or the blind and mindless followers of myths and legends. Or in other words....kinda like you.

Rote reality? Rote as in rote learning is a learning technique which avoids understanding of a subject and instead focuses on memorization.

Or in your case being mesmerized by the flash and the bling of modern journalistic endeavors projecting the emperor's new clothes.

Now place your hands over your ears and run along home before all that you just learned leaks out and is wasted.

Again, you fail

Sorry, you still make zero sense.

How does one slavishly follow memorized reality? And what does memorized reality have to do with flash or bling?

To tell you the truth, you're the one who comes off like a mesmerized follower of something you've memorized. You rant and rant against Obama's proposal to let some (not even all!) of Bush's tax cuts for the very wealthy expire, decrying it as socialist, but you don't provide any real analysis of how and why this would be bad.

So respond to my original point without resorting to an avalanche of original words. If Obama's tax proposal would still be less progressive than the policies of his predecessors, how could this possible represent a special and urgent threat of socialism?

An Avalanche of New Words?

I imagine that happens to you a lot doesn't it Sparky. Explain to you? Respond to your? Sorry lad, I don't feed the trolls. I just pull their panties down and spank their little asses and send them whining back to their hives.

I shall take that as a concession

as you continue to fail to respond to my point.

Take it?

Anyway you want to sport. But the bottom line for me? Is that you bore me with your trivial liberal troll games. So go play somewhere else
