I disagree with many things that Bush does and because of that I have been told I am a communist by many people on this site. I would like to know for people who like to say that how is it that having some different views from the president make me a communist? Please go into detail of how.

Americans always need an enemy, in the 50s, 60s, and 70s, it was communism. Now it is terrorism. So according to Bush supporters you should be considered a terrorist, not a communist as communism is almost dead nowadays and no one talks much about it.

You are not a communist just because you disagree with what President says or does. These people are ignorant and I'll say that 2/3 of them don't even know anything about communism. If they want to know what a communist is, then they should pay a visit to North Korea
or Red China. As far as I am concerned, you're a great American. Good Luck!!!

No, you are not a communist
To be a communist:
1) believe in a system of communes where each commune works together and everything is shared equally
You are not a communist if you disagree with your government. People that call your communists are just ignorant people that didnt make it past the 8th grade. They call you a communist because they have no reponse to your ideas or arguements, which shows you are smarter than them.

Dissent makes you a true American. People like to label Bush dissenters as Communists and liberals for the same reason that the Germans labeled the Jews as the face of evil during WWII - it gives the simple minded people focus.
No, you are not a communist.

Because maybe your thoughts and opinions lean towards the communist theories. But the Bush supporters are just sick and tired of the bashing that they would call you a communist for your inane remarks.

disagreement is healthy. The people you are referring to are probably just young and ignorant. It also may depend on the way you ask your questions and the tone of them. If you start out with saying President Bush is a nazi, of course you will get hateful answers. If you state "I disagree with the President, and this is why" you will probably get a better response (you will still may get hateful remarks though). I wouldn't worry about what people on here say. I just weed out the bad answers and concentrate on the intelligent ones.
