Spot on... NOT (on)!

You really don't care WHO wrote them? I guess you are NOT a 'child of the Cold War'. I care deeply about who writes things... and WHY they write them. I delve into them, as it were, old bean.

I'm so thrilled that you don't view President Obama as a 'communist' (Should that be capitalized?). I'm sure he's thrilled, too. Just as he is probably relieved that you assess him to be (at minimum) a "Democratic Socialist in the European mold". (I battled some European mold once in a rental property. Nasty business...)

If you went beyond your minimum, how would you classify him? I mean, what are the 'steps' between "Democratic Socialist in the European mold" and "communist"? (I did well in micro, but poorly in macro...though I usually excelled at Marco... Polo, that is.) What I mean is... is there a "Democratic Socialist in a <insert geographic area> mold", or "Full-Blooded Socialist without any mold", or what?

Three weeks rest really charged you up, didn't it?

Also, I refer you to a question I posed in Post #26 in the "How Do You Raise Taxes" thread.

Thanks....
