    Obama's goal is to simply expand the government's control over our lives. In doing so, he hopes to level income, but you're right ... the unintended consequence is to widen the income gap.

    Only bad things can happen when government gets bigger.

    Oh look yet another recycled bumpersticker of no actual substance, but works great for the uninformed emotional partisan.

    Please get off the Alinsky kick...its yesterday's memo. You are supposed to be calling her a left wing extremist. Keep up the the right wing talking points at least.

    I always laugh when I see someone from the far right make this assertion.

    :Look at the poll numbers on most of these issues, and you'll find that there are comfortable majorities of support for most of them.

    By contrast, consider the issues that didn't come up like gay marriage and Planned Parenthood, and you'll find that substantial minorities of people think these are important.

    Maybe if you listened to FOX, you would have known the charges that the FBI are likely to recommend for Hillary's e-mail crimes. You know, the stuff that MSNBC and your favorite MSM outlets run away from. :roll::

    Wanting capitalism to be modeled to benefit the majority in a nation is not socialism, its intelligence. They are against neoliberal capitalism, which the GOP brought back from the 1920s, the same economic model that crashed, in 29. It also crashed again after neoliberalism was brought back by Reagan and the GOP.

    It seems, if capitalism is not sending most of the income and wealth to the top, it is socialism. LOL. Myopic thinking creates revolution, if you pay attention to history. Neoliberalism has to be changed, so that Sanders can save capitalism as FDR did.

    Exactly when will you neoliberal conservatives be satisfied? When the middle class is gone, and we have two classes, the extremely rich and the poor? Why is it so hard to see what GOP neoliberalism has done to the working and middle class? You guys walk around with your eyes closed, or what?

    It is spot on as she tacked to the left trying to out left Sanders. If you want to support those policies that's fine have at it, but spare us the fallacious denials. The Democrats have become the radical extremist left now, deal with it.

    Capitalism has done the country and the citizens quite well, the failed progressive policies of the last 8 years have been a disaster and now the extremist radical Democrat party wants to double down on that and move us more towards a socialist society. Capitalism doesn't need to be "saved" and Sanders like Roosevelt would be the last person to even think about capitalism let alone "save" it.

    He watched it and is correct in his analysis, obviously you did not.

    Hillary isn't an ideologue like Sanders, she simply says whatever gets her the maximum voters. She solves for f(x)=0 and crafts her policy and personality to that end.

    Well when the Muslim Brotherhood did......why was it the Democrats who rushed to lap up their milk? Why weren't others willing to drink from those dog bowls?

    If I was given the choice of heart or brain I would keep looking for someone with both.
    Actually though if someone has a good brain then they probably also have a heart.

    Capitalism without decent regulation is as Donald would put it 'a disaster'. Socialism alone is not good either. It really takes a mix to make things work better for all people.

    Yes, there are many buzz words that generate a reflexive response
    And all partisans drink from that well

    Regulation of capitalism is not necessarily socialism. The purpose of the law, as it comes under the Constitution, is to insure contracts are enforced and fraud not allowed and monopolies cannot manipulate the market and that there are standards of weights and measurements and a currency with which to engage in exchanges.

    That is not socialism.

    The law should not be used by one group to deny the lawful business of another because they don't like the business or the product for personal reasons. It should not be used to tip the scales one way or the other in labor or business disputes. The tax system should not be in the business of "equalizing" or "redistributing" wealth and income, it has one purpose and that is the raise the necessary revenue to fund the government in the least intrusive or oppressive manner.

    That is why the Democrats have now become a radical leftist party, they are the total opposite of what the United States is all about and what made her great.

    No fallacious denials. Please provide examples of how HRC is not left of Bernie Sanders.

    Oh OK. Translation - I cannot argue specifics so I'll just slap a tired talking point generalizations on everything she says.

    Oh my God HRC read and was influenced by people in her past????? What a revelation....Again I wrote my thesis on Dr. Kritzinger...does that make me a Nazi?

    Hillary failed a test...wow...We cannot accept anyone for President that ever failed a test...besides it means she's a commie.

    All you have here is guilt by association.

    Hilary is just out for Hillary ..period..whatever it takes to make another million.She would sell cow patties as wookie turds if she thought it might make her more powerful.

    Sanders is a [​IMG] but at least he is a [​IMG] that truly believes in socialism

    apologies for the graphics but a lib here once thought I was referring to part of my anatomy when I used the term nutball

    What Republicans have ever said that they were left of Hitler (I assume you meant 'of' not 'if', but if not what does that even mean?).

    What Republicans have said this. Please provide quote and link. Thanks.

    That all depends, was your thesis kind towards Dr, Kritzinger ? Do you own a pair of jack boots and are you obsess with the Hitler Channel aka The History Channel ?

    I have a question maybe you can answer, if your thesis was on Kitzinger you should be able to answer.

    Question: Was Dr. Kitzinger a true believer, a true nationalist socialist or did he just joined the NAZI Party just to further his career ?

    Hillary did fail at being Obama's Secretary of State. All you have to do is look at the Middle East in 2008 and compare it to the Middle East of today.
    Obama fails at geopolitics and so did Hillary.

    Hillary a "commie" !!! I don't think so but she was part of the "counter culture movement" that began soon after many commies broke away (splintered) from CPUSA during the 1950's. By the early 1970's these radical leftist would be known as the "New Left." Today they hide behind the progressive label.

    I grew up when those "guilt by association" laws were still the books.
    You had to pick your friends carefully and be very selective who you associated with or you could find yourself in the slammer.

    What are you my thesis advisor? No Kritzinger wasn't a true believer in fact he couldn't even be classified as March Violet. What he was, was an enabler. If it wasn't for Kritzinger and beamters like him the Holocaust would not have been possible. He did however work for true believer, Lammers.

    To suggest anyone involved with the counter culture or its movements would disqualify a whole swath of both conservative and liberal politicians. Many of today's conservatives were yesterdays Maoists.
