Rave This: If you think modern day Dems are socialists, Posing as old school Liberals.

I think the Democratic Party was overthrown by socialists in the late 50s to early 60s, when the transitition was made from the party of the working man to the party of the non-workers. What are your thoughts.

    The Democratic party was not the party of the working man and it wasn't over thrown by socialists. All the racist "Dixiecrats" jumped ship and went Republican and fouled up the Party of Lincoln and freedom. You need a history lesson.

    Please read all of this before you reply and make yourself look silly. Also please don't say "Oh you rely on Wiki." Instead give me some information to prove me wrong.

    Let's just make this easy. Would Harry Truman campaign for ... Billy Clinton ... or Barack Obama?? I think we all know the answer to that. So yes, the Democrat Party did indeed morph into a strange Orwellian quasi-Europrogressive political entity that would have been totally unrecognizable in mainstream American politics until about the late 70s.

    unrecognizable to who? To racist southern democrats maybe. Those are the ones who jumped ship.

    Although I love a good history lesson, I think we are talking about our current administration and politicians.
    Here are some of the Socialist party candidates running in this election. Both the Communist and democratic socialist parties have other candidates running in this election or are already in power in local state and federal positions.

    Here are some of their current political candidates

    Maryland
    Brandy Baker for U.S. Senate
    Michigan
    Dwain Reynolds for State Board of Education
    John Longhurst for State Representative
    New Jersey
    Greg Pason for U.S. Senate
    Pat Noble for Red Bank Regional High School Board of Education

    review this thread and see the progressive bullies at their finest, venom spewing, name calling, deflecting, ingnorant and rude losers who don't like the light of truth.

    you just lost me, I have no idea of what you are talking about. This is not bullying, this is telling the truth about the candidates that portray themselves as liberals.

    There are candidates for both Houses, local and state elections from the democratic socialists, communist and socialist workers party all courting democratic votes.

    Who do you think they are going to vote for?
    Just like the racist and the KKK is going to vote Republican and join the conservative group. You have Fascist that is voting Romney. You have Christian Radicals voting Republican.

    Both sides have bad apples and yet people blame the entire group.

    I just knew you'd throw the race card in, so typical. Shame on you.
  • Jackal Michaelene 2012/06/24 22:39:48 (edited)
    Jackal
    ... ... ... WHAT!?

    I am purely stating the obvious...

    You know KKK and racist people don't like black people, who do you think they are going to vote for? Name one, KKK or Racist guy voting for Obama... ... ... you won't find one. I am not tossing the race card anywhere. Stating obvious facts.

    So typical? You don't know me nor my views, and already you are making judgements about me. See? This is what I am talking about, people already making decisions and having opinions before they even get the facts... another sign of the gang mentality.
  • Michaelene Jackal 2012/06/24 22:46:44

    How did Obama win the election with only a minority vote?

    You are being racist, and this is a typical comment from reading the recent comments you've made. I don't throw the racist word around lightly.

    Jackal
    Wow. I am flattered that you took the time to look me up. Though I never really pulled the race card on anyone unless it is blatantly obvious that they made a racist statement.


    Here is the reason why people voted Obama...

    Because it was a fad. It was the cool thing to do. All the merchandise and propaganda that was put out. Everyday you were constantly bombarded with Obama signs, T-Shirts, Billboards, advertisements, Pop Culture Support. Hope, Change, Freedom, Yes We Can!... what ever.

    You do know that people still voted for McCain right? Some of those votes were voted from people who are racist...

    Here is the thing, people are stupid, and easily manipulated. They make judgements about certain issues before they get all of the facts. People never did question about how these White House Puppets are going to keep the promises that they made. Instead, these Puppets preach Jingoist speeches, and the crowd falls for it. Never questioning, where they are going to get the money to support their promises, or when they make tax cuts to the corporations, where are they going to get the rest of the money that is cut from the corporations (of course the middle class and lower class) in order to meet their their goals.

    For every pile of dirt, there is a hole that is missing dirt.

    I don't see race like you do, I guess it's the mix of races in me.
    I guess racists did vote for Obama just as they voted for McCain. Maybe idiots like that are that stupid.
  • Jackal Michaelene 2012/06/25 06:33:33
    Jackal
    That is correct, racist people of color did vote for Obama, but not as much in comparison to how many racist voted for McCain. I am not one to wave the Race Card, but you can call me "Captain Obvious."

    Quite frankly I don't see race at all, and those people who love the race card make me sick. I am a "love making" kind of guy. If I can do every race in the world, I would! :P

    I would use the same information, and say Reagan was incorrect, it was not the fall of western civilization, we still awake American citizens even after 50 years that he warned of of the danger of Medicare. If you use this as proof that Medicare, or socialized Medicine, is in fact dangerous, it merely proves my point. When will the sky fall, Chicken Little?

    It is ironic, isn't it? So much of liberalism is based on Christian morality yet many people think the religious right is violating the separation of church and state. As an agnostic, it is so funny that current liberalism is based on biblical morality while current liberals condemn Christianity.
    When FDR was asked about his political philosophy he answered: "I am a Christian and a Democrat". When Obama asks for "fairness" and higher taxes on the rich he bases it on biblical teachings. It is no coincidence that Marx came from a long line of rabbis. It is no coincidence that the most religious countries in Europe are precisely those countries suffering from overextended welfare systems and are going broke: Portugal, Ireland, Italy, Greece, and Spain. All Christian countries.

    If Jesus went in a lot of modern churches an awful lot of preachers would go flying out the door with the rest of the money changers.
