Many conservatives are like that.

They want to be right so badly that they derp themselves out.

I take that to mean you've been sucked in on the "new" meaning of socialism then.  You know, the one you're being told about where everyone is equal and the government will give you cradle to grave care which includes premium healthcare.

How exactly is the government giving anyone cradle to grave premium healthcare?   You'd best be careful or this one is going on the TUZ Lie Tracker thread.  :wink:

I think you don't like it.  Everyone else here knew the definition, except apparently you.

You're the one running around here all day saying there's some "new" definition of socialism.

Right here is an example:

1.  Please define this "new" socialism as you see it.

2.  Explain how Obama is a socialist in your "new" definition, or as socialism is defined in any standard dictionary.

3.  Explain how that new socialism as you see it in this country is providing this:

I'm all ears, and I hope it's something better than your "Obama Sand Monument" rant of a few months ago.  :rolleyes:

No if you'll look back on previous posts it's what I've been saying we're headed for all along and am against and some kept telling me I had no idea what it meant and that isn't what is going on.  Problem is some get so hung up on name calling most lose any concept of the original conversation and it comes in convenient to them to twist things.  They all talk like it's going to be all roses and prosperity for everyone and it isn't.  There will always be those who have more than the rest and some who are between both.  Government will have to take over and people will have to work for the government, who will then be the corporations, because if people can't make money there will be no incentive for them to put up with the headache of owning a business.  If they, the business owners/corporations, have to give a hunk of their profit to the government to subsidize someone who is sitting on their ass why bother?  Or if they are getting just barely more than their employees after all is said and done, why bother?  Everyone will have to contribute to sustain so if you're too old or sick/disabled and can't work you're toast.  Good health care for the elderly? I think not.  State of the art health care for cancer or other illnesses of that type?  I think not.  Too expensive and too little return on investment.  Looks like we're gonna be stuck with it though so what's the point in discussing it any further.  Remember the liberals made sure the government higher ups kept their Cadillac health care when the conservatives wanted all of them included in Obama care. Don't you find it a little strange they were telling us how wonderful it's going to be but they wanted no part of it?  Didn't it make you go, hum, and scratch your head just a little?

You are ridiculous.  There is nothing happening that even remotely resembles government ownership and control of the production and distribution of goods so your use of the word socialism is dead wrong, period.
Arguing with Christians is like playing chess with a pigeon.  No matter how good I am at chess, the pigeon is just going to knock over the pieces, shit on the board and strut around like it's victorious.

The truth is slow, but relentless. Over time it becomes irresistible.

No it is socialism, the government now controls health care, and a big piece of the auto industry.  The energy sector is so regulated and constrict by rules and regulations, and the enviro-nut crap it is all but controlled by your dear leader.

You being a loyal sheeple and kool-aid drinker of your dear leader would never see it.
