Did You Know 'Socialist' is a Code Word?

Politics | Tue, Oct 21, 2008 at 6:10:15 pm PDT

Did you know that “socialist” is a code word for “black?” No? Lewis Diuguid, Kansas City Star Editorial Page columnist, sets you straight: Shame on McCain and Palin for using an old code word for black.

McCain and Palin have simply reached back in history to use an old code word for black. It set whites apart from those deemed unAmerican and those who could not be trusted during the communism scare.

Shame on McCain and Palin.

J. Edgar Hoover, director of the FBI from 1924 to 1972, used the term liberally to describe African Americans who spent their lives fighting for equality.

OTOH, millions have used the term, along with it's cousin, communism, to describe the leading force behind the murder of over a hundred million.
But, who's counting?

41 quickjustice  Tue, Oct 21, 2008 6:16:41pm

Anyone think it's rather bogus that Obama is waiting until Thursday to visit his "gravely ill" grandmama. She could croak any moment and he's waiting until Thursday! If this is how he reacts to the urgency of a family situation I'd hate to....well, do I need to spell it out?

43 Dar ul Harbarian  Tue, Oct 21, 2008 6:16:53pm

WASHINGTON -- Sen. Barack Obama has opened up a double-digit lead in the presidential race, with a growing number of voters saying they're now comfortable with the Democratic nominee's values, background and ability to serve as commander in chief, according to a new Wall Street Journal/NBC News poll.

44 TheMatrix31  Tue, Oct 21, 2008 6:16:56pm

I can't take it anymore.

45 FrogMarch  Tue, Oct 21, 2008 6:17:12pm

Because Obama's tax credit does not reduce marginal tax rates, it will not benefit the economy. It provides no added incentives for work, savings, investment or business expansion.

Because it's refundable (meaning workers get it even if they have little or no income-tax liability), for many it will involve just another check from the government, rather than a reduction in tax liability. In those cases, it would not be a tax cut at all, but a transfer payment and a direct drain on tax revenues.

McCain proposes to double the personal exemption for each dependent from $3,500 to $7,000, for all families regardless of income. For middle-class workers in the 25% tax bracket, this $3,500 increase would reduce their tax liability by $875 for each child. While this tax cut also does not involve a reduction in marginal tax rates, it will promote working families with children.

But McCain also proposes marginal tax-rate reductions that do promote economic growth and encourage investment. Because America today suffers from the second-highest corporate tax rates in the industrialized world, McCain would help restore American competitiveness by reducing the federal corporate tax rate from 35% to 25%. This would benefit the middle class and workers by creating new jobs, at better wages, while strengthening the dollar.

It may even raise, rather than reduce, revenues. According to a 2007 study by the Treasury Department, Ireland — with a 12.5% corporate tax rate — raises almost 50% more revenue on a comparative basis than the United States does with a 35% rate.

This has really gone beyond reasonable. Any label attached to this man is now called racist. The message this sends out is that you can't criticize a black man- that is, unless he's a republican. Then you can call him an Uncle Tom and not be racist.

This is disgusting. 0bama was supposed to be a post-racial candidate, and all he and his supporters have done is set race relations in this country back.

Don't like what Whitey has to say about you? Just call them a racist! Then you can ignore the critique without giving it any serious thought- because that's how personal growth and improvement really come about.

Speaking of Socialist - I was listening briefly to the talking head pundits on Special Report with Brit Hume tonight and I wanted to let out a primal scream that goes something like this “Why haven’t any of you morons had the courage to come out and tell the truth that we are faced with the legitimate prospect of the most left wing President in American history since commie dupe, udeful idiot, fellow traveler, Henry Wallace was FDR’s one term Vice President? A man who has the thinnest resume and experience of any major party candidate in at lest 100 years, a man so raw and unprepared and ideologically bound to extremists that he makes me wish that John Kerry had won in 2004 and was about to possibly enter his second term”

(of course black is not any kind of codeword for socialist, and it's ludicrous, or maybe fifty cent, to say that socialist is a codeword for socialist)

This has really gone beyond reasonable. Any label attached to this man is now called racist. The message this sends out is that you can't criticize a black man- that is, unless he's a republican. Then you can call him an Uncle Tom and not be racist.

This is disgusting. 0bama was supposed to be a post-racial candidate, and all he and his supporters have done is set race relations in this country back.

Don't like what Whitey has to say about you? Just call them a racist! Then you can ignore the critique without giving it any serious thought- because that's how personal growth and improvement really come about.

What's worse is that people are going to react to the accusation with, "So what?" If everything is racist, nothing is--even those things that are really racist.

Given the financial crisis, the flames of which have been fanned by President Bush and Treasury Secretary Paulson, and McCain's joining the Democrat chorus of condemnation of Wall Street without laying a glove on the Democrats for their ignition of the crisis with "free" mortgage loans, can anyone blame a majority of the American people for being completely disgusted with the GOP?

I support McCain, but watching the current GOP Administration nationalize the banks, letting some arbitrarily fail, while arbitrarily bailing out others, has been breathtaking in its incoherence. The markets are watching with bemusement. Obama is coherent and projects cool, even if he's completely wrong on the underlying issues. He SEEMS more confident and self-assured.

If you were an unsophisticated voter, whom would you support?

"National Socialism" was the name Adolph Schickelgruber (AKA Hitler) gave to his particular brand of fascistic socialism back before J. Edgar Hoover ever branded anyone with the term "socialist". It's too bad that the Democrats are so obsessed with racism that no one dare criticize "The One" in any way without incurring the wrath of the "enlightened ones" who support him, who accuse anyone not paying him obeisance of being mean-spirited rednecks. Bleahh!

History of Socialism

The history of socialism finds its origins in the French Revolution of 1789 and the changes brought about by the Industrial Revolution, although it has precedents in earlier movements and ideas. Like the concept of capitalism, it embraces a wide range of views.[1]

The term 'socialism' is variously attributed to Pierre Leroux in 1834, who called socialism "the doctrine which would not give up any of the principles of Liberty, Equality, Fraternity" of the French Revolution of 1789[2] or to Marie Roch Louis Reybaud in France, or else in England to Robert Owen, who is considered the father of the cooperative movement.[3]

I'm sooooooooooooooo confused.

You can't reason with unreasonable people. If this kind of a thing wasn't so serious it would be funny. Wasn't it a few years ago that some white city councilman, I think in D.C., had to resign for using the term niggardly because a black councilman was offended? It is at the point in today's society that you can barely say the word black in describing someone's hair color without possibly causing offense. What ever happened to sticks and stones may break my bones but names will never hurt me. And when I looked up socialist in the dictionary it didn't say code word for Black either. It's time to stand up and say enough, you can all fuck off.

Mr. Diuguid, the word socialist is not a "code word" for anything. A socialist is someone who advocates or practices the doctrines of socialism (Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary 1913). A socialist can be a person of any size, shape, or color. Socialism is a very stupid and dangerous ideology. Everyone that believes in freedom should fight and criticize socialism at every opportunity . Your straw man is poorly constructed.

Because Obama's tax credit does not reduce marginal tax rates, it will not benefit the economy. It provides no added incentives for work, savings, investment or business expansion.

Because it's refundable (meaning workers get it even if they have little or no income-tax liability), for many it will involve just another check from the government, rather than a reduction in tax liability. In those cases, it would not be a tax cut at all, but a transfer payment and a direct drain on tax revenues.

McCain proposes to double the personal exemption for each dependent from $3,500 to $7,000, for all families regardless of income. For middle-class workers in the 25% tax bracket, this $3,500 increase would reduce their tax liability by $875 for each child. While this tax cut also does not involve a reduction in marginal tax rates, it will promote working families with children.

But McCain also proposes marginal tax-rate reductions that do promote economic growth and encourage investment. Because America today suffers from the second-highest corporate tax rates in the industrialized world, McCain would help restore American competitiveness by reducing the federal corporate tax rate from 35% to 25%. This would benefit the middle class and workers by creating new jobs, at better wages, while strengthening the dollar.

It may even raise, rather than reduce, revenues. According to a 2007 study by the Treasury Department, Ireland — with a 12.5% corporate tax rate — raises almost 50% more revenue on a comparative basis than the United States does with a 35% rate.

The words "Obama's tax credit" is an oxymoron....he will let the current Bush tax cuts expire, so therefore EVERYBODY'S taxes will increase....he likes to leave that part out.

re: #411 Killgore Trout

Why did Angus Young start wearing the schoolboy outfit? Anyone know the story?

From Wiki...

After playing with the band for a while, Young developed his trademark schoolboy image. Before settling on the schoolboy costume, Angus had tried other costumes, such as Spider-man, Zorro, a gorilla, and a parody of Superman, named Super-Ang.[3] The schoolboy costume became a signature trademark of Young. To match this image the press and public were told that Young was born in 1959, not 1955. The original uniform was reputedly from his secondary school, Ashfield Boys High School in Sydney. One rumour is that he did not have time to change his clothes between school and band practice, and simply wore the uniform; while such an event may have occurred years earlier, by 1973, Angus had long left school. His sister Margaret suggested he wear the uniform after Malcolm asked each band member to come up with their own gimmick, which was ironic as Angus very much disliked being at school. This was the era of glam rock, when costumes were common for pop and rock acts.
