Obama's "New Socialism"
How much of a socialist is President Obama? According to Jim Gilmore—the former Republican governor of Virginia whom Democrat Mark Warner trounced in last year's Senate race—Obama is so much of a socialist that he's created his own form of socialism.
We have learned a lot in the first one hundred days of the Obama administration. The most important lesson is that this administration’s operating ideology isn’t old-style liberalism or even old-style socialism. President Obama and his team are delivering a “New Socialism.”
Their “New Socialism” doesn’t need to capture property. It is content to control the economy through taxation and regulation and the attitudes of our citizens by the establishment of a culture through the power institutions of our society: the media, the education establishment, and powerful business interests. Moreover, the “New Socialism” seeks to create a conventional wisdom that discredits all alternative thought.
So now socialism doesn't even have to look or act like socialism to be socialism. New Socialists just have to try to control someone's "attitude" about something through the media, education, and/or powerful business interests.
That's a pretty big umbrella. (After all, trying to change an attitude about something through powerful business interests is "New Socialism." Does that make our last administration New Socialist?) So it got me thinking: What other politicos fit under Gilmore's New Socialism tent? How about Jim Gilmore? Let's see: Gilmore now heads up USA Secure, a security think tank comprised of "key national technology and infrastructure companies." What do they do?
Our goal is to gather a broad group of industries, first-responder non-profits, think tanks, and universities to speak with a steady and strong voice to all the different departments of government, particularly the Department of Homeland Security.
So it looks like Gilmore is using industry and universities to peddle influence to the government. That might end up changing or controlling some attitudes. Sounds pretty New Socialist to me.





























Obama's "New Socialism"
It could also be called inbred plunder. It is the inevitable result of Bush II ridding us of the robber barons:

Gilmore, just another irrelevant Weepublican dodo squawks, "the “New Socialism” seeks to create a conventional wisdom that discredits all alternative thought."
File this BS under their ineffective, overplayed tactic of accusing Democrats, Liberals and Progressives with the very crimes that they themselves commit!
Just a few years ago, they tried to pejorativize the word "Liberal", not to mention Democratic names like Howard Dean and Hillary Clinton.
They also tried to claim any vocal dissent against the president during a time of war was treason. Ann Coulter even tried to claim that "all Liberals are traitors."
This is just another reason why they lost two elections in a row. They refuse to change even in the face of their own demise.
That is why they are the party who should change their name. My suggestion is, 'The Weepublican Dodo Party of Extinction'.
Socialist California Fire Fighters
Bet Californians are damn glad to have those "Socialistic Fire Fighters and those "Socialistic Police" ("government paid" from taxes collected) on the job right, now...! If they had to pay for those fire fighters and police out of pocket..(like in a Private Corporation Fire fighters and Police) the whole state and most of the neighboring states would go up in flames...then the looters would grab any thing that the fires left...sometimes government works just like its supposed to...no matter how much the GOP tries to sabotage and obstruct

I greet with it!
Maybe a Facist
Obama might rightly be called a fascist. Both Hitler and Mussolini controlled their private sector, while still maintaining a regime of private ownership. Obama has his hand in the auto industry, in energy, in-health care, in finance......Hitler and Mussolini did the same thing with the industries of their countries. Sorry to say this folks, but you lefties reading this don't even see what is happening right under your noses. Obama will create an environment in which government intrudes into your lives much more than you thought George Bush ever would. Obama has a "czar" for everything. These are people who meddle in critical areas of our lives (cyber security for example), who are not appointed by Congress, not approved by Congress and not accountable to Congress. Even Robert Byrd (D. West Virginia), has commented vociferously on Obama's circumvention of Congress (or in his words "power grab") by using this methodology. Just this week Obama has had 3 inspector generals fired for producing reports that were critical of what is going on at AmeriCorps and the International Trade Commission. This administration is seeking to pull the census out from under the relatively impartial oversight of the Department of Commerce and into the highly politicized White House. Most of you fools don't see what is happening right under your nose. If things such as this were happening with Bush in the White House you would all be screaming. Since its the snake oil selling Mr. Hope and Change quadrupling the national debt and increasingly sticking his nose into your lives, you'll keep drinking the Cool Aid. The One has hypnotized you with the help of a mainstream media that is out to lunch, or taking deep hits on the Hope and Change bong. Little by little, however, people are waking up.
Have you noticed how this administration is always playing a "hurry up offense". No huddle, just executing the plays. This is because they realize that a large number of you will eventually wake up to what is happening. They want to jam as much of their statist and collectivist agenda down your throats before this happens. For instance, would you take longer than 45 days to make a decision to buy a car? Maybe. Or would you take longer than 45 days to decide whether or not to buy a house? Probably. The One wants to completely redo an activity that represents 17% of our GNP in 45 days. Does this make logical sense to you? Have a cup of coffee (or three) and wake up.
