Oh, right. He's not a Marxist.

Barack Obama on Chicago Public Radio WBEZ-FM, 2001: The Supreme Court never ventured into the issues of redistribution of wealth, and of more basic issues such as political and economic justice in society... and one of the, I think, tragedies of the civil rights movement was, um, because the civil rights movement became so court focused I think there was a tendency to lose track of the political and community organizing and activities on the ground that are able to put together the actual coalition of powers through which you bring about redistributive change. In some ways we still suffer from that...

Wow...If there were any reasonable doubts in the MSM or elsewhere about the meaning behind his "spread the wealth" comment, they can be put to bed.

I know this tape just resurfaced today, but if the McCain campaign has any sort of political intelligence left, they should push this clip like hotcakes in the last 8 days. If they do, this could end up being a huge deal.

[blocks]

Bump! You might think of changing the topic title to something more attention grabbing, this is huge in my opinion. If the McCain campaign ever used this, it would change the entire presidential race. I'm not exaggerating in the least bit.

The fatal flaw in the McCain campaign's reasoning, is that the American people will forget about the bailout, or the past 8 years of explosive spending (when government spends, the money goes from one group of taxpayers to a different group of people). McCain voted for the bailout too. The only question is, is the wealth going to be redistibuted to the rich or to the middle class. The majority will choose middle class any day. (because they are the majority)

AND HOW IS THIS RON PAUL GRASSROOTS?

You can flag it, and ask a mod to move it.

this is Ron Paul grassroots because this cat wants to do whatever he can to circumvent the Constitution...the core of the Ron Paul grassroots movement IS TO RESTORE ThE CONSTITUTION. We are in SERIOUS danger of losing it completely with this clown. tones

Obama is a Marxist. People here in Chicago know it. He was a member of the Democratic Socialists of America which is a Marxist group and was a candidate for the New Party at the same time he was a Democrat Party candidate for the Illinois Senate. Him and his little marxist mentor congressman Danny Davis both exploited this little loophole in Illinois election law and were able to organize their marxist minions and at the same time get all the Democratic lemming votes. Go look it up, its pu blic information. His association with Bill Ayers is only scratching the surface. The fact that the MSM is not talking about his long standing marxist connections is the last proof that I needed to believe that the MSM is totally corrupted and untrustworthy. They have proven that they are irrelevant. This election is the worst choice ever. We have to choose between a hardcore marxist with a personality cult and a lunatic warmongering fascist. America is screwed either way.

Well, McCain was an absolute idiot not to bring this up at the debates. I truly believe a few of McCain's handlers are actually in Obama's camp -- McCain should of brought up his socialist associations in the Socialists of America party. I mean, that is a NO BRAINER!

McCain is a true idiot. And I agree, the media is corrupt and in owned/operated by the same NWO types.

The whole "redistribution of wealth" topic is a third rail for the Republicans... .. seeing as how our Republican President just threw billions of dollars at the poor in a "stimulus" package this year. Yeah. Some of that wealth that was redistributed by Bush and the other Republicans was MINE. I didn't get a check. So anytime a Republican starts running off at the mouth about a Democrat being a socialist I go donate more money to a Libertarian or to a candidate like BJ Lawson who isn't afraid to say the Republican party is no longer the party of fiscal responsibility.

FU Bush and McCain.

I think this is exactly why the GOP isn't jumping all over this, because they are just about as guilty as the Dems when it comes to wealth redistribution and corporate welfare.

[tonesforjonesbones]

Oh baloney...everyone who paid taxes...PAID taxes got a check..it was a tax rebate. Welfare people did NOT get a check. damn!

I have never liked mccain....I just dispise The Komrade. tones

Go read up on the stimulus. Get stimulated. You'll find that it was indeed a redistribution of wealth put forth by our fellow Republicans. You'll find that the "wealthy" didn't get one of those checks. They took my money and gave it to the "poor". I watched the big flatscreen TVs being carried out of the stores and shook my head. I listened to McCain going on about how that stimulus would fix our economy and watched his "bought" popularity go up in polls against Ron Paul who argued that the stimulus was just redistribution of wealth and wouldn't fix anything. Who was right? tones

[Zera]

Problem is though, people won't see much of a difference in the message they get from this. They've already heard the spreading of wealth statement a hundred times... Like I said in the other thread, they're still supporting him. I don't see this making much of a difference.
