Sun comes out... Democrats don't evaporate.
You can't explain that.
You can't explain that.
To people who think Obama is left, yeah. By our standards you're still very much a centre right country. You just avoided being a far right one.
You still have guns, bastardised healthcare and the death penalty. If you think that's left then Britain is a Communist utopia.
That is why all this socialist communist stuff is so laughable.
Well that, and the very notion of socialism as evil in a country with several prominent nationalised public services.
you would be surprised by how many educated people who spout this.
you cannot srgue...just shake your head and move on.
Look. in 5 years the vast majority will love what they deride as Obamacare.
you would be surprised by how many educated people who spout this.
Maher in a clip on Hannity.
You know that Hannity is too chickenshit to go on Maher's show though.
I'm not. The misconception of socialism in the US has a veeery long precedent. Remnant of the Cold War I suppose. But still annoying as hell.
I actually blame the Democrats for it, as they've willingly allowed it to become a dirty word. No one of any real prominence has had the balls to stand up and say "yeah, I actually am supporting some socialist aspects of policy that are perfectly compatible in a capitalist country" for fear of the word ruining them.
marginal tax rates for billionaires exceeding 20%, or everyone in the richest country on earth getting half-decent medical care.
Socialism!
Yeah. The Right are currently going nuts about some poll where 30% of young people or something say they prefer socialism to free enterprise.
What they apparently haven't worked out is that after spending their whole lives confronted with conservative propaganda, lots of young people think 'socialism' means things like marginal tax rates for billionaires exceeding 20%, or everyone in the richest country on earth getting half-decent medical care.
Socialism!
the right has managed to make 'liberal' a dirty word. so we now call ourselves 'progressives'.
its just silly.
btw there was a poll recently that said 11% of Americans would be happy with a communist government.
I wonder if they truly understand what communism is.
saw that..very emotional.
He is a good guy.
very proud to have voted for him.
The same is true for the term conservative though. And yes, it's silly.
No, because they don't know what communism is. Or socialism or fascism or damn near any other ism.
Why does he keep saying "we still don't know where the President was on the night of the Benghazi attack"? Does he think Obama did it or summat?

Florida has nearly finished counting
Florida has nearly finished counting
That actually seemed genuine. He always came across as a good guy who went into politics to try and be a better politician despite being surrounded by useless hacks of all political leanings.
They could call it now but if the final count is under 0.5% difference it triggers and automatic recount.
