re: #99 Atlas Fails

Unfortunately, it looks like the nuts on your side are now the ones whipping out the Nazi card. This isn’t surprising, since a Democrat’s in the White House, but the logic they use is rather embarrassing. Nazi…National Socialist…socialist…Obama’s a socialist!!!…liberals are socialists!!!…therefore, liberals and Obama are Nazis!!!11ty

How would these maniacs react to an actual socialist like, say, George Orwell or Winston Churchill? I’m not a socialist (by sane person standards), but that’s because I see the ideology as flawed, unrealistic, and chimerical, not because I think it’s inherently evil.

Huh are you saying Churchill was a socialist? He wasn’t. It is funny though regarding Orwell, they quote him relentlessly but ignore Orwell’s socialism and fighting to preserve the Spanish Republic. The problem is these people think every socialist is a murderer like Stalin. It’s a complex ideology. That’s my problem with it and I blame Palin in large part for the resurgence of that.
