>>> "but how can obama be an islamist terrorist and a communist." He certainly can endorse the concepts of communism and terrorism at the same time and that is precisely what he has done -- although not explicitly. "From each according to his ability, to each according to his need". Surely, you will agree that this is one of the basic tenants of Obama's income redistribution plan, no? He wants to take money from those who have achieved something by their abilities, and he wants to give it to those who need it. Terrorism? Just look. Ayers. Khalidi. Wright. He has no problem with terrorism as a tactic. You guys get too balled up with trying to pigeon-hole these concepts into a named category. Just like your claims that fascism is a conservative outgrowth, when in fact fascism shares more important attributes with today's liberalism. You can't just conveniently categorize everything -- in Obama's case, he clearly reflects agreement with important concepts from communism (or at the very least, extreme socialism) and he obviously doesn't find terrorism disgusting enough to avoid associating with terrorists.
