Re: **Breaking** Obama was a member of Socialist New Party in 1996
Because the left only cares about progressing Collectivism towards Communism.

And the right only cares about progressing it to Fascism.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 15740069



No, the right cares about restoring the Constitution, which is quite removed from fascism.

The left views fascism as a big step towards totalitarianism, and once attained, it's onward to communism and the second coming of the Dark Ages.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 17502515


Actually you have been suckered into believing that.

The people who want to restore the constitution are Libertarians.

They are nether right nor left.

Go look at a Nolan Chart.

Hitler was a fascist, which is an extreme right-wing ideology. He hated communists as much as anyone. Try again.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 430043


Hitler was a socialist. In addition to being a member of the National Socialist Party aka the Nazis, he socialized all of Germany for chrissakes. But then he goes and kills a bunch of jewish people, and you idiot liberals decide that now he's a right winger.

But yeah who can blame you for wanting to distance yourself from that kind of stuff.
 Quoting: Sonofabiscuit


National socialism is not socialism. Socialism is left wing, national socialism aka fascism is extreme right. They are polar opposites. Hitler was one of the biggest opponents of communism ever. Calling Hitler a socialist or communist negates your argument and discredits you completely.

Re: **Breaking** Obama was a member of Socialist New Party in 1996
There's a better way to resolve this argument. Instead of using words to describe the man in question let's just look at some of the crap he has pulled and judge him on that basis.

Killing innocent Mexicans and Americans in Operation Fast and Furious. Expanding conflicts in the Middle East. Re-naming fighting units in Iraq and Afghanistan so it looks like the trigger pullers are being withdrawn. Insisting on Language in NDAA that allows for US Citizens to be roused in the middle of the night, wisked away by secret police, never to be seen again. Re-Education camps for those who oppose his world views. Forcing citizens to buy a product from private companies or face jail or stiff fines. On and On and On.

We can call him a Communist, Socialist or the Easter Bunny but it really doesn't matter. The man is a danger to Freedom and a tyrant. And if ANY of his NDAA bullshit is actually enacted he'll be known as a complete monster.

I don't care if you're Liberal or Conservative. HOW THE HELL COULD ANYONE SUPPORT THIS KIND OF CRAP?

Barrack Hussein Obama was a member of the Socialist New Party in Chicago IL in the late 1990's


[link to www.breitbart.com]


"Minutes of the meeting on January 11, 1996, of the New Party’s Chicago chapter read as follows:

Barack Obama, candidate for State Senate in the 13th Legislative District, gave a statement to the membership and answered questions. He signed the New Party “Candidate Contract” and requested an endorsement from the New Party. He also joined the New Party."


[link to www.nationalreview.com]

"Recently obtained evidence from the updated records of Illinois ACORN at the Wisconsin Historical Society now definitively establishes that Obama was a member of the New Party. He also signed a “contract” promising to publicly support and associate himself with the New Party while in office."

[link to www.theblaze.com]

"The New Party had a front group called Progressive Chicago, whose job was to identify candidates that the New Party and its sympathizers might support. Nearly four years before Obama was endorsed by the New Party, both he and Harwell joined Progressive Chicago and began signing public letters that regularly reported on the group’s meetings. By prominently taking part in Progressive Chicago activities, Obama was effectively soliciting New Party support for his future political career"

We all knew he wqas a Socialist anyway....this just confirms any doubts for those who can't put 2 and 2 together.

Yeah, and Communism was sold as being "for the people" too. The whole reason for the hammer and sickle symbolism was to appeal to the useful idiots who thought they would be the ones in power. The problem is, unless you are free to do what you want with your own property/business/money you are not free and whatever name you want to assign to that form of government, it is a form of tyranny no matter how benevolent it may claim to be. In Socialism, the government allows you to own your own property/business/money, but it tells you what you can and can not do with it. There are not rights given by God in that system because there are not rights at all, only allowances from government.

As power corrupts, that seemingly benevolent government will eventually dictate that what you want to do with what use to be your property/business/money is no longer allowable or that you must use it in ways you do not want. Finally, that socialized tyranny turns to full on communism when that formerly benevolent government simply takes what you have away and either gives it to someone else more compliant or destroys it outright to use as a fear tactic to control the rest of the population. Karl Marx himself in his Communist Manifesto said that Socialism was a transitional phase to Communism. There are just some roads you don’t start walking down because the path has no turns and your destination is destruction.

Learn from history or doom yourself to repeat it.
