		<description>Thanks for a refreshing &quot;change&quot; from the one-eyed lunacy dominating the O&#039;Bama is God site. It is clearly the same kind of imagery that dominates in the totalitarian dictatorships.  One of our great powers, through our freedom of speech and of the press, is the ability to make fun of, and to point out what otherwise might not be seen so clearly.  For years the dems have done it.  Turnabout is fair play.  Nice art work.</description>

		<description>Dear Friends,

How are you doing.
Firstly, making it clear, I&#039;m a Chinese.
But I don&#039;t think I&#039;m a communist or would be anyway.
I have to admit I don&#039;t reade all your messages above.
I have been trying my best to learn English for many years, still I&#039;m not quite good at English or the west culture. But I do think there are many great things out there.
I love English movies and TV shows, such as &quot;God Father&quot;, &quot;Philadelphia&quot;, &quot;Forest Gump&quot;, &quot;The Graduate&quot;, &quot;Prison break&quot;, &quot;Desperate housewives&quot;, &quot;Lie to me&quot;, &quot;The prisoner&quot;, &quot;The Big Bang Theory&quot;, even I&#039;m watching &quot;American Next Top Model&quot; and &quot;The X Factor&quot;. 

I think the United States&#039;s people and other western countries&#039; people are famous for creativity and freedom speech.
So do tell me are there any laws define one guilty if he claim himself to be communist?
People might got into trouble by what they said?

I&#039;m not sure how much you guys know about communism.

You have two parties in your county, which is not bad. People get their chances.
Take a scenario that if there are two or more parties in Chinese goverment, will make you feeling better?
What Chinese people should do to improve?
Anyway, do tell me what is the essential differences between so called &quot;Capitalism&quot; and &quot;Communist&quot;. I&#039;m curious what&#039;s your opinion going to be.

Sorry for my bad English, please kindly let me know if I have made mistakes in wording.


Sincerely Yours
Haigang Liu

PS. I want to add that, if you also approve that things needn&#039;t only have only two aspects, such as &quot;good&quot;(white region) and &quot;bad&quot;(black region), is it possible a &quot;no so good while not so bad&quot;(gray region) exist? 

PPS. I happen to be one of an Obama&#039;s fans, I thinks he is an icon, who stands for hope and change.</description>

		<description>The only part of that overlong screed that matters is the phrase, &quot;I&#039;m a communist.&quot;

None of the rest matters.</description>

		<description>My goodness,
Are you aware that being a declared communist in the U.S. is a federal crime after 1948!!!!!
Further, you are free to leave at any time.
Move to a &quot;progressive nation&quot; that shares your values, don&#039;t try to export your beliefs and change a belief structure that is the best in the world!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!</description>

		<description>My goodness, this is a real sad sight. You all must be out of your minds or unable to comprehend reality. I mean, I&#039;m saying this and I&#039;m a communist. I know for a fact that my idealistic views make me a little out of touch at times, but I admit it. However, these exagerations, this network liable is all so sad and almost leaning on pathetic. Not all of you who contributed on this very page, but a staggering many. I hurts to see my countrymen so poorly informed of the world around them.

Let&#039;s start small with what I am trying to say here... &quot;Obama is the New Hitler&quot; is actually one of your names? For voting for the opposing democratic party (I&#039;m only assuming &quot;Obama...Hilter&quot; voted Republican), they are now proclaimed a cult member? Has our democracy become nothing more than two parties of modern day witch hunters? This is horrendous! Your behavior is below barbarous... And to the &quot;democratsarefascists&quot; person, have you learned nothing of history? First off, to be very factual, the idealism behind facism is to be very open about your ideology and openly admit your facist ideals. Secondly, a fascist leader has unltimate dominion over the organizations that run the state. The fascist leader is the only diplomat, the first citizen and you will not see a wall that does not contain their image or name. Do not blur the lines between large federal government spending and fascism. And definitely, never get communism confused with facism. Such blatant ignorance is offensive. No wonder you don&#039;t put your real names. I&#039;d be ashamed to have people know who I was too, if I submitted the pure filth that some of you have.

Now, actually the United States does have some of the greatest government spending in the world for decades and this is a horrendous problem. We are trillions of dollars and debt to other nations, like the communist/authoritarian state of China (who grows as we flounder), and yet we cannot provide the simple public services and recognize the same human rights our superior modern nations can. To me, we must cut spending and I think this could be easily done with proper prioritization. Social welfare programs, for example, can be very cost effective. It really should not cost much at all, but when we stripped our nation&#039;s public programs of their budgetting in the 80&#039;s they became so ineffectual that many who live in public housing and are given a social pension find that their neglected housing is located near low-income jobs that are not designed to provide for adult necessities and that their pension is far too small to advance their position in the economy so they make due with what feeble living standards they have and live off their meager budgets, without many progressive prospects, until they die. The few success stories you hear about people getting out of the ghetto are 1 in 1,000,000 and unfortunately it doesn&#039;t happen because they tried harder, but mostly because of coincidence or &quot;luck&quot;. Now on the other hand, our military spending has gone crazy and is putting our nation in danger, much like what happened to the Roman Empire and the Soviet Union (increasing income disparity also contributed to their collapse). Our defensive military is necessary, yes, but we currently still maintain bases and military forces that drain millions of dollars each and yet have not been put to use for decades. If we have better standing with other nations, this sort of spending is reckless and unnecessary to our defense.

Now you may debate me, you might dissagree with my politics and ideals, but no this: our government has basically gone unchanged since the 1960&#039;s and Obama is no different than our past presidents other than he is a better speaker than is predicessor and encourages small growth in the direction of human rights, but he is not your problem. Until you address the greater issue at hand, you will find no change. Educate yourselves on the issues of our nation and on global history and you&#039;ll be closer to the goals of a better government ideology. But, I&#039;ve gotten off topic... Good day.</description>

		<description>One in five children are happy to have those jobs.  When the liberals shut down child labor in the third world, those kids end up in pornography or prostitution.
We need to stop exporting our morality.
Commerad Obama is telling every household what to do, except for GE, they are exempt.</description>

		<description>Josh,

This sadly is closer to home than I&#039;d like. B.O. will continue to sell the country&#039;s problems as George Bush&#039;s doing, and skate on through in 2012. The government never has been and never will be good at creating prosperity. The only thing capable of doing that is a corporation. Whether that corporation is a corporation of one, or a corporation of many, it will always have more raw resource generation capability than our beloved larger-than-life (or communist Russia) sized government. America is a great place to live, but her days and years as the America we know are numbered. Thanks for the graphic and a good laugh.</description>
