As the Obama Socialist Revolution continues some who are the target of the lefties are starting to revolt. Isn't it great?

The socialists are doing their best, but there are many who will resist until Obama and his socialist policies are thoroughly defeated. Obama's socialist and liberal policies are not in the best interest of this country. Let us hope that these policies are completely discredited and fail miserably. As the nonpartisan CBO said, Obama's plans will do more harm than doing nothing.

I watch CNBC regularly and viewed Santelli's rant live. We have travelled the road of his ideology (and the investor class's) precisely and where has it gotten us? Unregulated free markets have shown unquestionably that runaway greed is a failure. The system is being propped up by public subsidy paid by those who have not shared in that opulent wealth. Do you think that is fair? And what is unfair about the socialist creed, "from each according to his ability and to each according to his work"? Or even the communist creed, "from each according to his ability and to each according to his needs"? Santelli is no rebel, but only showboating and a proponent of the old and failed ideology. He warps and distorts the terminolgy "revolution". The people very much need socialism, but sadly their new "champion" will not deliver it. Tell us Jim who can leasd us out of the economic debacle that we find ourselves in? Face it this obsolete socio-economic system must be trashed and mankind must evolve to a new system where economic justice and logic prevails.

We are all allowed our opinion. I do not think that the majority of Americans would agree that socialism and communism are better than a free market democratic system of government. As they say the only thing wrong with socialism is that eventually you run out of other people's money to give away. With the multi trillion dollar bills that Obama is charging to the next generations at some point there will be blow back. I would like to see the expenses per day that Obama is spending compared to all other Presidents. He has been in office for a month and how many new trillion dollar pieces of legislation has he put into effect?

We are stuck with Obama for at least 4 years unless there is a major shift in power during the midterm election and something is found to remove him from power. He is after all a Chicago politician, so he cannot be clean.

The best that we can hope for is that there is enough public opposition to every socialistic or liberal policy so that he backs off. The left is so drunk with power right now and they will end up eating their own. It is always fun seeing Dems attack Dems. There has been a little infighting, but in time this will be our greatest entertainment.

Yes we are all "allowed" our opinion, but it is seldom honestly given in this country of internalized repression. Who are the true owners of the wealth created in this system? The old addage "labor is the source of all wealth" is still as cogent as when it was first uttered. "If the workers took a notion they could stop all speeding trains; every ship upon the ocean they could tie with mighty chains." I must revert to the worn out chicken and egg analogy to smash the illusion of capitalist ideology. Jimbo, which came first human productivity or capitalism?

You need not worry your little head about Obama's socialism is only for the rich programs. But you had better worry about the people who are groggily awakening to the scurrilous rip off that this system engenders.

And yes the best hope we have is that the populace (the unspoken populace) does awaken and rightens this criminal society that we inhabit. And I am not talking about the ones idle enough to have time for this bitchin, but the slaves of America who have not enough the time to explore these questions.
