Social Security is a socialist program, farm subsidies are socialist programs, social welfare and corporate welfare are socialist programs, Medicare and Medicaid are socialist programs Shall I go on? Unfortunately for our economy we are a socialist country. A reasonable and honest person can not deny that fact. The only argument you can make is that we do have as invasive government programs as other socialist countries. To say other wise is intellectually dishonest and more then likely leftist propaganda or quite possibly an illustration of ignorance.

The right-wing nutjobs in this country actually think the Democrats are “socialist.” I bet Senor Zapatero gets a good laugh out of that. While the openly racist, homophobic, and xenophobic Republicans are considered “mainstream.” If this were Europe, I’m sure Bush Co. would be classified as extremist (alongside the likes of Le Pen, Fini, and the Kaczyński twins).

I cannot understand how any self respecting gay person can vote for the Republicans, a party that clearly hates gays, puts the interests of the very rich over the lesser well off, has isolated America in global political terms and has absolutely no regard for the environment. I sincerely hope Obama is elected later this year. America will be chosing between more of the same or for a real change.
