And yet he has done nothing as President that could even vaguely been called communist.

Being half-black in charge of the United States is definitely six types of subversive and probably communist.

Though being "in charge" of the US may be considered a stretch in meaning given the distribution of power under the Constitution.

Also, this "being half-black" is something that American racists in denial love to trot out as a rationalization of their racist cartoons, etc.

[johnny9fingers.livejournal.com]

Well, you know the "one drop" rule...and if you don't know about it, I'm pretty certain the folk who post such cartoons know about it.

Oops, did I say that aloud?

Just wait! Any day now, he'll unveil his super secret crytpo-Muslim-Atheist-Nazi-Homosexual-Communist-Marxist-Anarchist-Super-Duper-Secret plan and realize his plan to destroy American and families and puppies and sunshine and rainbows and install his communidystopia where we all have to get gaymarried!

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaany day now!

I didn't know that he had added Atheist and Anarchist to his list of titles. That is so cool!

[dexeron.livejournal.com]

I'm just still shaking my head that there are people who literally do believe all of that.

I actually hear a lot about Obama supposedly being an atheist from the left, not the right.

[yes-justice.livejournal.com]

Its wishful thinking. He doesn't describe himself as such in his book.

[johnny9fingers.livejournal.com]

Mind you, I have seen many on the right describe President Obama as "Muslim", which seems fairly risible.

[torylltales.livejournal.com]

correction: "Muslin".

... Occasionally "Muesli".

Atheist I can believe. That would explain his tone deafness regarding that Chicago preacher he supposedly attended. If he had been going to the church, he would have heard that god damn America stuff.

The most insightful post on his past I've read thought his mother and father were CIA operatives working overseas. Hence his security overkill and endorsement of drone strikes in office.

[enders-shadow.livejournal.com]

wait, you buy into the "god damn america stuff" ?? Watch the whole clip, the context is always cut out, but God and Jesus would agree, if America is being evil, then of course God damn it!

IF....THEN statements shouldn't be judged on only the later part! Don't let their propaganda get you.

[peristaltor.livejournal.com]

Me!?! Oh, no. My point was that an Obama sitting in the pews would have heard that and noted its potential for being taken out of context by the America Is Great!!! GREAT!!! crowd.

I personally doubt he is religious at all. After all, his marriage seems pretty stable. . . .

"All of this can be Googled for accuracy."

Because everyone knows, if you can Google it, it must be true!

[soliloquy76.livejournal.com]

I love the citation "Obama's book".

All this can be Googled for accuracy

Translated: you'll find plenty of Right-wing bloggers who can absolutey rock a tinfoil hat saying the exact same things! Or if you're lucky, you may find something vaguely related that said hat-wearers have blithely construed into Communism!

[vulturoso.livejournal.com]

Is this 1950? Do they think the President being anything is going to make the country that thing?

[brother-dour.livejournal.com]

To answer your questions: yes (especially in the Red states), and yes.

[anfalicious.livejournal.com]

So I googled Snr. It seems that he was a communist, if by communist you mean a critic of communism as practiced in Kenya (http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0408/9610_Page2.html).

He probably was a socialist, but anyone who thinks that's strange or a bad thing has absolutely no idea about the historical context of post-colonial Africa.

[tcpip.livejournal.com]

So, he was influenced by Lou Reed as well?

Good.

I wish Obama were a Communist. Heck, I'd be happy if he were left of center.
