I heard Rush talking about this today. Joe Biden let it slip that the redistribution threshold is now $150K; down from Obama’s original $250K threshold.
Hold onto your pocket book folks. Obama the Robber Barron and his gang of Merry Red Thieves are coming to town!

During one of my endless circular drives transporting children today, I caught a minute of a phone call from one of Sean Hannity’s fans, who is nevertheless voting for Obama. She has concluded that the Founding Fathers were entirely in favor of wealth redistribution, because they opposed the concentration of wealth in a small [...]

Traditionally, Americans conceived of taxes as a way in which citizens paid for basic government services that benefited all (such as defense, infrastructure, etc.). With socialism, the notion arose that the government was to take from the rich (as defined by the government) and give to the poor (as defined by the government). Since the [...]

It’s gotten so that anything that is not pro-Obama is racist. The latest attack is that it’s racist to call his positions “socialist” (and this despite his affiliation with the socialist New Party). In the spirit of this attack, I hereby present a photo gallery of famous, black, self-admitted socialists:
Karl Marx
Friedrich Engels
Adolf Hitler
Benito Mussolini
Che Guevara
Chairman [...]

I carpooled to a soccer game today. The driver, who is someone I don’t know very well, is a very charming man who is quite obviously a potential Obama voter. He wasn’t quite sure about me and, since he was a very civil individual, he never came out and either insulted McCain or lauded Obama. [...]

Perhaps, Barry. Perhaps. We’ve been debating it hotly for the better part of a century. Some say it’s indisputable. Some say the “supply side economics” of the Reagan era, with the Laffer curve, and all that stuff has been “discredited.” Some will try to pull a global-warming-type fast one and insist “all the world’s economists [...]

As we have pointed out repeatedly on these pages, most recently two days ago, the man-god’s plans for the economy are inextricably connected to the policy agenda he shares with Ayers, Dohrn and all his lefty buds.
Seriously, Sen. Obama, we all realize that when we listen to politicians, we have to suspend normal rules of [...]

More and more evidence is oozing out that shows that Obama is not simply a liberal among Liberals, but that he’s actually a socialist — or, at least, he once was a socialist, and has neither explained nor apologized. We in the conservative blogosphere find this problematic, the Kos crowd finds it cause for [...]

It is no secret among thinking people that the Democratic Party is a socialist group. Most of them mask their Socialistic or Communistic tendencies but they are moving closer and closer to everything being run by the government and redistribution of all wealth except for the wealth of the ruling class. They will remain rich [...]
