Ooops!
It seems there is someone running who supports actual Socialism (state/collective ownership). It turns out it isn't O.bama:
we’ve set up, unlike other states in the union, where it’s collectively Alaskans own the resources. So we share in the wealth when the development of these resources occurs.
Whooops! Yep, Sarah P.alin is an actual Socialist.
I think that most people know - not only does Alaska not have state income or sales tax, but that every Alaskan gets a check from the government each year (The Alaska Permanent Fund). So,
"collective" ownership of the state industry and dole checks for everybody!
vs.
increasing the marginal tax rate on personal income over $250,000 per year from 36% to 39.4%
Which one of those fits the definition of Socialism?

I'm glad the lines were too long to vote early today. Tomorrow I'm voting for Palin and moving to Alaska.

Okay now the critical neoconservative fundamentalist question from their newest convert - me. WWJD? Do think he was a socialist? I think not! If you dared to look under all that robe thing that he wore you would fine a good old supply and demand profit motivated capitolistic god (his daddy) fearin' dude with balls of steel! (okay maybe he might pee holy water now and then but you get the idea). Of course she SEEMS like a socialist - because people are so used to socialist propaganda that everything SEEMS socialists. But she's not and you can tell because an american war hero like JOHNMUTHERFUCKIN'BLOODANDGUTSISISMYMAINMANMCCAIN would NEVER pick a commie pinko after being around all those commies in asia for so damn long! He hates commies and socialists! he spits on them with that big ol' wad of chaw he keeps in his left cheek whenever possible. That's the guy america needs! A commie hatin spittin baccer chawin captialisim-jesus lovin kick ass president. he already has the gas prices going down and he's not even in office yet! Pretty soon gas will be almost free and everybody will have an equal amount of cheap gas and our government will back it up. Guys like John and Gals like Sarah believe in the old fashioned capitalist dogma "every man according to his needs!"

This campaign isn't any fun anymore. Watching McPalin these days is like watching a bunch of clumsy, mean, retarded kids with baseball bats in a mud pit. Sure it's kind of funny at first but after a while most of them are lying there, bleeding and moaning or just lying uncomfortably still, face down, while the rest of them have gotten into little groups that throw poop at each other and occasionally get so mad they run out and beat on each other some more. Maybe it's not exactly like that but there's a similar feeling of disgust, discomfort, and embarrassment watching them.
Y'know, I find the stuff she's saying to be bizarre at best. This would be like Joe Biden standing up and saying that under a McPalin administration we would invade Poland and kill all the Jews. Craziness.
