Who’s right, who’s left?


Published on Tuesday, April 21, 2009 10:10 PM PDT

The Kern Valley and American right wing is calling Obama a Socialist.” Obama is suggesting that we raise taxes on the rich to ten percent LESS than Ronald Reagan had them. Reagan and both Bushes increased our democracy’s entire historical debt 40 plus percent while Clinton only raised it three percent. Ninety-five percent of those raises are in the form of Treasury bills we now must pay off with interest. And these right wing darling presidents sold them to Communist China. (Who now hold the second largest amount of our T-Bills.) Of course, Communist China is not Socialist, it's Communist.

Tom DeLay, ex Republican Speaker of the House once said that the tragedy of the murders at Columbine as due to teaching evolution. He is presently under indictment for breaking almost every campaign and gerrymandering law in Texas. How many Republicans know the above facts? Marine Commandant, now National Security Advisor, General Jones, says that the American public’s ignorance, is an equal threat to our democracy as terrorists. Is Marine Corps Commandant right or ah, left?

    " The first three posts about American ignorance of specific facts about Republican Presidents taxing us was answered with hopes that God would somehow turn the "socialist" Obama around.
    It's sad how quickly you proved the point of Americans' ignorance and inability to exercise the very "free will" you talk about.
    To repeat, three Republican Presidents upped our taxes 40% since 1776, and took away our first and fourth Amendment rights. Obama gave us back those two rights. Who is the "socialist"?
    Put your bibles away and use the brains God gave you on secular matters. "

    " At the moment President Obama is following the path of someone who thinks like a Socialist. Everyone in America is praying he will wake up before it is too late. He too can have a change of heart if we pray! "
