Obama's Great Leap Forward

[NightHawkeye]

Great moments in Communism ...

From the Huffington Post: Obama 'Forward' Video: Re-Election Campaign Unveils New Slogan

WASHINGTON -- President Barack Obama has a new campaign slogan: "Forward."
​

Mao had a Great Leap Forward, too. Killed 40 million Chinese in three years ...

As did Comrade Lenin ...

​

Stalin ...

Under the Leadership of the Great Stalin — Forward to Communism!
​

... and others ...

​

It's enough to give one goose bumps ... or chills ...

 

[RETS]

Hmmm. Great Conspiracy or Great Coincidence...?

 

[Viren]

I'll believe it when I see it. So far it's just a similar slogan.

 

[MachZer0]

Obama took a slogan from his heroes. No big surprise.

Granted, those posters are cool....

But, until you can point to a single policy decision made by Obama that promotes communism in any form, I will remain unconvinced.

-- A2SG, while he talks a good game to us liberals, he hasn't followed through on a single thing.....

Obama's banner up there doesn't have nearly enough red and yellow to be a communist banner. Therefore he is not a communist.

Wow! Some people have such a blind hatred of Obama that they will believe anything.

Sure it gives me goosebumps. It's absolutely scary to think that there are some people out there that think one word convicts the president of totalitarianism.

Think of it as a pattern. Pay attention now. Maybe you'll pick up on it.

Yes we all know that Obama is an American hating commie muslim...seriously?

A pattern has more than one item in it. Care to share with us the other elements of this pattern leading toward communism?

-- A2SG, cuz, as a self-admitted liberal, I'd like to see ANY policy decisions from Obama that aren't either right of center compromises or GOP ideas to begin with, like "Obamacare".....

I am a moderate that tends to lean right of center but I agree with you. The extreme right's insistence that Obama is a evil dirty socialist/communist is ridiculous. You can dislike him all you want but there is no sense in spreading around lies and misinformation like so many like to do.

Start with one, see where we go from there.

Hi, SPB.

Help me understand then. You claim to be a right-of-center moderate. What does that mean? Seriously. Do you have any core beliefs? If so, what are they?

Thanks.

I think it's a reflection of how far the GOP has moved to the right that a centrist is now so far to their left as to be called a "socialist"!

Yeah, didn't think you'd like that ... but I do, LOL.

Exhibit 2, then: Articles: Why Is Observing Obama as a Marxist Verboten?

Obama exploits the citizenry's concerted blindness, cloaking his views under veneers of "social justice," "fairness," and "progress." Unadulterated Marxism attracts few votes. In rare candor, sans teleprompter, Obama lectured Joe the Plumber that his prescription for widespread prosperity is "spreading the wealth around."

Before catapulting to prominence, the president complained that thanks to constraints instituted by our Founders, "The Supreme Court never ventured into the issues of redistribution of wealth and sort of more basic issues of political and economic justice." Obama's justice ensures not that transactions are freely entered and fairly measured, but that bureaucrats enforce results fancied per the fluttering fashions of political correctness.
​

You do realize, hopefully, that "fundamental transformation", "social justice" and "redistribution of wealth" are Marxist fundamentals?

I take a balanced practical approach to everything. I take a little from both sides of the aisle when forming my political opinions. If you would like me to explain further I would be more than happy to.

This basically sums it up. I am not a liberal in the sense that I have an unwaivering support of unions or massive welfare programs. I do support gay marriage and tend to be pro-choice(I hate the idea of abortion but seeing as how I am not a woman I to not pretend to understand what goes in to making that decision), support the death penalty, drug testing for welfare recipients, welfare reform(make it harder to obtain and to stay on) and well I think you get the general idea.
