I see it all the time here. Hillary is a Socialist, Obama is a Socialist, Edwards is an ambulance chaser.
If you accuse Hillary & Democrats as being Socialists, can you tell me why? What is Socialism and what policies are they proposing that is Socialist.

Democrats as branded as socialists by Republicans. Thus, they are called socialists by the people.
VOTE for your choice as US President on my 360 degrees blog and know if the Democrats will likely win.

If the Dems don't win the next election, I wll seriously vomit. It absolutely blew my mind that Bush won (ahem) the last one. There is no freekin' way the Cons will be voted in again. The whole Socialist name calling is coming from the greedy Cons. George Bush makes me sad.

The conservatives consider the idea of national health care to be socialist, they consider govt programs like welfare assistance, daycare assistance, etc to be socialist. Programs to help people using govt money, ie taxes are considered socialist by conservatives who feel that govt should not spend their money on lower income people and should not increase any taxes on the wealthy.

It is a Robin Hood agenda. Take from the rich, give to the poor. What actually happens is they take from the middle and give to the rich and the poor.
