    Of course it does!

    Just don't point this out to the followers of the false prophet. They don't like it when it's pointed out that Pres. B.O. is a liar and a hypocrite.

    god you wing nuts are going loony. what, exactly, did Obama say about the Patriot Act? please provide an original source

    he does many things that show he is, in fact, right of center [[center, as usual, being Eisenhower). of course you all are sooooooo brainwashed into the "Obama is a socialist" crap that you can't recognize the truth when it is right in front of you.

    Obama is no "liberal"
    Obama is certainly no "progressive"
    and neither were/are the Clintons

    cc better them, then the strong arm, high interest, non deferments of those free market loans...when my student loans were enforced it wasnt a big deal with lower interest rates and no threat to ruin credit is something happened.. my kids private loans are no where near the student friendly ones that most of us knew..

    Never better for a absolute power to gain power. Why? No choices exist with a coercive government monopoly. Free market loans on the other hand, can be shopped around. Furthermore, if a person must, as a last resort, default then they may be able to get protection via bankruptcy and renegotiation.....try that with Uncle Sam.

    You goosestepping right wingnuts need to thank your lucky stars you have such a conservative in the White House right now.

    If Obama was a "socialist" which I wish he was, we'd have nationalized banks, forced lending, single payer health care, and free public education throught college level.

    I can still dream.

    Hello!

    That post was for you to respond to, since it was a question as to why it's inconsistent in your view to provide a public school education.

    What does it have to do with holding my hand?

    I'm not that kind of Lorax.

    He didn't push through the god damn PATRIOT ACT...

    MCP -- exactly.

    he hsn't made the kind of anti-patriot act comments required to view him as a hypocrite on the subject.

    Fact is, any time Obama shows his right-of-center self clearly, the wingnuts call him a hypocrite, even though those positions are what he has had all along, and why I would not have voted for him in the primary had I had the chance. all these give the lie to the BS "socialist blah blah blah" crap right-wing extremists have been pushing

    Obama and company are fascist liberals...not "right wing" in the sense of conservative or republican.

    How is it even possible to be a Fascist Liberal???

    It's not.

    He's even posted a link [[one of the few he's ever took the time to look up) and it specifically states: [[paraphrasing) "fascism is inherently linked with right-wing politics such as Mussolini's Italy and Hitler's Germany."

    I especially like catching the good Doctor in a situation like that. I am slightly upset you ruined the chance to watch him try to explain himself...

    rb336, Pres. B.O. knows full well how his base feels regarding the US PATRIOT Act.

    I knew how he voted while he was a Senator, and I remembered the flak he received while campaigning for President on that issue.

    I just chalk it up to the silence from Pres. B.O.'s administration being deafening.

    He knew how it would play out, he just didn't want this to distract from the laundry list of programs that he is pushing for currently.

    Liberal fascism is very well described in Jonah Goldberg's bestselling book of the same title...read it if you want a better understanding.

    The discredited, fact challenged Jonah Goldberg who uses word play to make an idiotic point, which fell on deaf ears.

    And the book was not a bestseller among anyone who thinks.

    BestSELLER means it sold a lot of copies for those troubled with the language and the meaning of words.

    Did you read it Lorax? You still have an outstanding debt to me for a lost wager...this could make you a man of your word....albeit a very belated one.

    I read it. I have a few problems with it, which I won't go into here.

    As for "bestseller" being an endorsement of the value of the ideas contained therein, let's not forget that the Left Behind series are also bestsellers; does it therefore follow that the Rapture is fact?

    "Cat In The Hat" is a bestseller decades after it was written, so what's your point?

    You don't hear liberals going around screaming BEST SELLER! at the top of their lungs, when liberal writers of all stripes have far outsold fascist conservative ones.

    I cherry picked through "Liberal Fascism" at the book store, and read Glenda Speck's tome with him depicted as a "comrade" on the cover while gagging on my coffee, again at the book store- I won't buy it, naturally, so I'm stuck reading it through.

    That should be sufficient torture to make your little fascist heart skip a beat.

    What I refused to waste time on is anything by Mann Coultergeist, or Michelle Balkin'.

    Thankfully I have an Evelyn Wood reading dynamics course under my belt!
