Barack Obama is not a socialist and saying he is makes you unpatriotic

I think it's a little irresponsible to be spreading around things like Barack is a socialist. It's simply not true. Is he a liberal? Yes. Doesn't liberal mean "progress", though. When did progress get to be a bad word?


Definition of liberal:
1. favorable to progress or reform, as in political or religious affairs.
2. (often initial capital letter) noting or pertaining to a political party advocating measures of progressive political reform.
3. of, pertaining to, based on, or advocating liberalism.
4. favorable to or in accord with concepts of maximum individual freedom possible, esp. as guaranteed by law and secured by governmental protection of civil liberties.
5. favoring or permitting freedom of action, esp. with respect to matters of personal belief or expression: a liberal policy toward dissident artists and writers.

Wow. Barack is favorable to progress and concepts of maximum individual freedom.

That sounds terrible. (<---read sarcastically)


If you believe that Barack is a socialist then you also must believe that George Bush is a fascist imperialist.
