The WSRP’s Olde Tyme Politicks

by Goldy — Saturday, 10/18/08, 2:09 pm

Sen. Haugen is a communist? Really?  That’s the best they can come up with?

Talk about being stuck in 1982.

    And they throw in Jim McDermott completely gratuitously. It even says “1989” above his photo.

    In 1982, Jim was elected to his third term in the Washington State Senate.

    Haugen isn’t a commie….
    But McDimwit & O-blah-blah sure as hell are!

    Karl Marx:
    “In a higher phase of communist society, after the enslaving subordination of the individual to the division of labor, and therewith also the antithesis between mental and physical labor, has vanished; after labor has become not only a means of life but life’s prime want; after the productive forces have also increased with the all-around development of the individual, and all the springs of co-operative wealth flow more abundantly–only then can the narrow horizon of bourgeois right be crossed in its entirety and society inscribe on its banners: From each according to his ability, to each according to his needs.”
    From each according to his ability, to each according to his needs.

    Marx sounds just like McDimwit & O-blah-blah….or rather vice-versa.

    We need an O-blah-blah BIG Government Program to spread the wealth around.
    No thanks.

    Cyn, we already have a big government program spreading the wealth around. Your president started it, remember? And he’s done good with it, too. All his friends, donors and cronies have profited from his schemes.

    Remember? Spreading the wealth, y’know…..

    The best example of socialism in America is the military industrial complex.

    Those of us who want to gut the MIC are the true capitalists.

    The Minnow reminds me of a wingnut stuck in the eighties.

    He may have been a Democrat then but I’m sure he looks back on those Raygun years with deep nostalgia.

    It seems they just took $700 billion dollars and spread the wealth to AIG. Did you know that the CEO of AIG just used tax payer dollars to go to England for a $90,000 quail hunt?

    re 7: You know, there was more to Marx and Engels than ideology. They also have a sytematical, mathematical proof that communism will prevail because that is the only system that will afford us an opportunity to survive.

    In other words, the economic MECHANISM of communism works as inevitably as you think the free market does.

    I think the events of the past few months bear that out.

    Too bad Cynical’s wealth is a delusion. If only it was real, then we would soon take it from him and give it to all those poor brown people he hates so much.
