    (strocube @ Nov. 06 2008,12:20) I'm just terrified that maybe this country will go the way of Sweden or Canada--the horror.
    Huh? I was agreeing totally with your post til i reached this?

    What do you wish for then? An ex-commie, noveau rich eastern country that just found capitalism, run by the maffia, a perfect example of  the evils of capitalism ?

    I agree with your post, but something tells me you haven´t been in Canada or Sweden. Hell, this type of argument belongs to the nazi.., sorry, rightwing in the US.
    I think he was being sarcastic sev7en. Strocube's on your side

    (apologies if you are also being sarcastic, but it doesn't seem like it)

        (Tomcat @ Nov. 06 2008,19:19) America= Socialist... maybe in 60 years time but not now, the word is being twisted beyond its meaning.IMO. I dont care for Obama but hes obviously not a Socialist. I doubt if the free enterprise system  will be dismantled in the next four years...
        Good point , he certainly ain't no socialist .

        While its progressive that a black man is voted president , and that the worst president in living memory has been replaced , the honeymoon period will be over very quickly , he has inherited an economy in a complete mess , a country fighting ill conceived wars around the world , and lets say it , a country still hated by many in the world .

        Can he turn that around ?
        Its one hell of a task , and I sincerely hope he can , but it is gonna take radical changes .

        Is he up for the task ?
        Free your mind and your ass will follow .

          Well Stated jimslim........although I think the "honeymoon" will be extremely shortlived..........there are far too many issues to jump in to too soon for the honeymoon to last very long.

          Of course this will require him resisting the temptations of joining his muslim AlQueda allies and of course he will also have to resist the overwhelming urges to immediately invoke his socialist ideals on the unassuming american public!!!!

            (jaymee @ Nov. 06 2008,15:25) Now that Barack Obama has won the U.S. presidency, investors are wondering whether markets are heading on a crash course with socialism.
            I'm starting to wonder if Webster's dictionary not only contains lots of wrongly spelt words but maybe also inaccurate defenitions.


            Or maybe my understanding of the concept of socialism is deeply flawed?

              There is no definition for Socialism but I would add,

              Socialist: one who is opposed to the idea of redistributing wealth from the poor to the rich in the form of reduced taxes and direct government subsidies and bailouts.

                Maybe we'll have casual dress in the Oval Office.  Though the last Dem there didn't always keep his trousers on.

                    IMHO, It may not have mattered who was elected. They have their work cut out for them. If they succeed in bring this country out of this recession, they're a godsend. If not they're the proverbial goat.

                    Although I like the fact that the alcoholic dufus currently in the Oval Office will be out come mid-January, along with his one-foot-in-the-grave/cardiac kid VP, I'm worried that some other moron out there will try to assassinate him (Obama). And if someone does succeed in assassinating him, I'm headed to Canada. Cause I ain't gonna hang around for the chaos that will ensue from that.
                    It's been a rough day. I got up this morning ... put a shirt on and a button fell off. I picked up my briefcase, and the handle came off. I'm afraid to go to the bathroom.
