IBD: Barack Obama’s Stealth Socialism
October 28th, 2008 at 08:15am KMorrison
Investor’s Business Daily’s article Barack Obama’s Stealth Socialism is definitely worth a read. An exerpt follows…
During his NAACP speech earlier this month, Sen. Obama repeated the term at least four times. “I’ve been working my entire adult life to help build an America where economic justice is being served,” he said at the group’s 99th annual convention in Cincinnati.
And as president, “we’ll ensure that economic justice is served,” he asserted. “That’s what this election is about.” Obama never spelled out the meaning of the term, but he didn’t have to. His audience knew what he meant, judging from its thumping approval.
It’s the rest of the public that remains in the dark, which is why we’re launching this special educational series.
“Economic justice” simply means punishing the successful and redistributing their wealth by government fiat. It’s a euphemism for socialism.
In the past, such rhetoric was just that — rhetoric. But Obama’s positioning himself with alarming stealth to put that rhetoric into action on a scale not seen since the birth of the welfare state.

Scare, scare!
Fear, fear!
This is your argument on why McCain should be elected President????
What a joke.
Why don’t you try making a case why McCain should be President? Oh… that’s right… he has no ideas and nothing that the American people want to hear.
McCain had his shot. He blew it by selecting Palin as VP. Then he really blew it when he realized he couldn’t win on his own merits and opted instead to try and go negative.
