Last Chance to Keep a Marxist Out of the White House

I hear Obama talking to voters who are concerned about his tax-and-spend agenda, and I cringe when I hear his responses.

Case in point: Barack told a plumber he was speaking to that while he doesn't want to "punish" the man for making a good living, he does think it is only "fair" that "we spread the wealth" for the benefit of those who are still lagging behind economically.  Translation: this white guy needs to quit whining and get ready to cough up some more dough so that the poor and needy, disadvantaged brothers and sisters in his neighborhood can get some relief--via Barack the Merciful--from their abject poverty and destitution--from which only Barack and his Democrat band of merry men can deliver them.

Sounds so generous, so big-hearted and fair and logical until you realize that, wait a minute, in order for the government (i.e., the Obama regime) to spread this wealth, it must first extract it from its current owner, i.e., the person who earned it.

In the good old days, this used to be called theft.  Now it is called economic democracy.  Talk about doublespeak and Orwellian illogic.  It is a hallmark precept of classical marxism: "from each according to his ability, to each according to his need."  Translation: give it up or we'll take it from you by force (or by legislative fiat/executive order).   

Yeah, that's the change we need.

  1. This is pretty good. I happened to be sick at home yesterday, and listened to Mike Gallagher on the radio. He said virtually the same things in your post. I have to agree with both of you.
