Obama's not a Socialist

Obama's not a Socialist

Or so I am assured.

His father was. His mentor was. Several of his "Czars" are/were. His minister of twenty years is:



Judge me by the people with whom I surround myself. - Barack Obama

I do. He is. And so is his agenda.

UPDATE: This video is from the 60th Anniversary celebration of Monthly Review magazine:

The Monthly Review sixtieth anniversary celebration at the New York Society for Ethical Culture on September 17, 2009, was a great success. A large crowd turned out to hear Grace Lee Boggs, John Bellamy Foster, Robert W. McChesney, Fred Magdoff, Michael Tigar, Toshi Reagon (providing music), and the Reverend Jeremiah Wright, and to celebrate MR’s birthday. We would like to thank all those who participated in this extraordinary event. Dr. Wright captured the tone of the evening, declaring that: "Militarism, capitalism and racism, domestic oppression, foreign military aggression, victims of neo-colonialism, victims of community and national racism, and the Cold War days in its infancy to the needless war in Vietnam in its [MR’s] second decade, through wars of greed in Afghanistan and Iraq in [its] sixth decade" were all incisively covered by the magazine. He spoke of Monthly Review’s indefatigable insistence on the need to put "people before profits," and its unflinching criticisms of inequality, injustice, and the realities of capitalism. (See Daa’iya L. Sanusi, Amsterdam News, September 24-30, 2009).

But apparently none of these people are socialists! Hell, apparently there aren't even any LIBERALS in America!
