so, Obama's a socialist now.
Any fool in this environment can see that American businesses need plenty of oversight and that average working people of the United States need relief from their burdens. That said, the idea that Obama is a socialist is laughable. He's a centrist and always has been. In times of great economic trouble, Americans have traditionally turned to Democrats' willingness to embrace traditional leftist ideas of market restraints and worker protections as a bulwark against...hey, waitaminute...

Why yes, yes he is a socialist! Damned socialists, always trying to redistribute shit. What was that "trickle-down" thing again?
