Putting the Entire Planet on Welfare
Obama's aggressive application of the Cloward-Piven strategy to bring down America's economic system by massive government expenditure has already resulted in him running up a debt we won't be able to pay down for generations. But it isn't enough to put half of America on welfare. What about the rest of the world?
British Prime Minister Gordon Brown hopes to forge a "global new deal" with President Obama to rescue the world's economy when he makes his first visit to the White House since Obama's inauguration.
The Times of London reports Brown, who arrives Tuesday, will reportedly introduce a plan requiring massive spending on a worldwide scale.
The prime minister is expected to invoke the words of President Franklin D. Roosevelt, who proposed the government-financed New Deal to confront the Great Depression in the 1930s, the paper reports.
Your great-grandchildren may soon be buying new palaces for socialist dictators all across Africa.

On a tip from Wiggins.

Obama and his Neo-Marxist economic advisers are seeking global economic egalitarianism by reducing American living standards to those of developing countries. My theory, anyway.

Great! Now, our tax dollars are going to be spent to bailout Europe! We cannot even afford what we are currently doing and now Obama wants to give money to Europe.
Can anyone say "New World Order."

I've linked to your post from Obama's Seeds of Socialism which is a new collection of articles related to Obama's usage of socialistic ideas. We will reap what we sow.

Allow me to be blunt. America is going out of business. Our civilian government is totally incapable of running our country. This is the most evil group of Politicans I have seen in seventy years.
I don't see how a total collapse of the Federal government is preventable

oldguy, that would probably be the best.
Capitalism has failed miserably as has representative democracy. We need to allow a more centralized government to make the important decisions for us.
The old Soviet style system worked well and it can work again and better as long as it is not a closed system like the old Cold War era USSR. We can follow the Chinese model of economic trade and commerce as well as adopt more of their social policies so that we can protect the people and the planet from our collective greed and selfishness.

BO's people are whining that they "inherited" the deposit to excuse their spend-thrift ways. But please tell me this, LIBERALS: how the hell will they reduce the deposit by INCREESIING spending? It doesn't matter WHO made this mess, THE PEOPLE IN CHARGE now have to clean it up! What the hell are YOU LIBERALS going to do about it?
ANSWER: Complain and blame everyone but yourselves. You have no plan. Obama has no plan. You parasites NEVER had a plan.

"draen at March 2, 2009 4:35 PM"
cave ahht's either incredibly stupid or trying to start a fight with people he knoes can't hit him. It makes him feel "brave" to insult other people's inteligence on the internet.

"...he KNOWS can't hit him."
YOU try to type with a cat on your lap.

Given Obama's performance, rather than FDR (who at least had something to do with winning a war) that image conjures up the classic bumbling of Colonel Klink.

Cave ahht, are you suggesting we should adopt the Chinese model of economic growth by saying "screw Kyoto and all the carbon cap / trade nonsense" and going hell-bent with dumping toxic waste willy-nilly and using forced labor in our factories? Because that's not very "green", you know...
Posted by: PabloD at March 2, 2009 7:02 PM
cave ahht is jerkin' your chain. You all fall for that like you fall for "billions for ACORN in the Stimulus." Every time.
Oops, gotta go. While I was schooling you I let an opportunity pass to promote Cloward-Piven world domination by whatever-the-opposite-of-multinational-oligarchs-is. Elders of Zion, anyone?

cave ahht and fat stanley are proving very useful here. they aren't changing anyone's mind-- they just go to extreme lengths to prove that everything we believe about the Left is true.

In The Red Paper of Scotland in 1975, a youthful Gordon Brown outlined his vision.
'Twenty-five years ago, a book lit up the murky Scottish political scene like a lightning-flash. Even now, the 'colossal impact' of The Red Paper on Scotland is remembered. Its 28 contributors remain defined by the attitudes they struck in those 368 pages. And that goes even for the editor, Gordon Brown.
...
It provided ideas for the young radicals around Gordon Brown, above all as the first British publisher of Antonio Gramsci's work in translation. Gramsci, the Italian Communist who spent most of his working life in Fascist prisons, had argued that socialism could not be imposed but must grow out of existing civil societies.
Brown's foreword shows he had been excited by Gramsci. But the other big influence on him was Tom Nairn - who had already absorbed 'Gramscian' ideas.'
