McCain Calls Obama a Socialist
McCain calls Obama a socialist and accuses him of wanting to send working families welfare checks in the form of tax cuts and then turns around and talks about his own idea of the government buying mortgages from banks and restructuring them so people can stay in their homes.

Who is the real socialist and does McCain even fucking know what he's talking about?

2. This is the problem. Those on the right spewing the socialist meme
are more likely than not completely ignorant about what socialism actually is. Especially people like the dumb woman in the diner calling Obama a socialist. She'll be counting on social security and Medicare in her golden years, never realizing they are demon, "socialist" programs.

3. every municipality in the America is socialist
if they regulate your water, hookup, sewage and usage.

Senator McCain, you are like a bad fart. You stir shit up and you smell funny.

8. This is essentially what he is saying
:wtf: and he is getting away with it. Only in McCain-Palin's "real America" does that shit even get said.

7. Which underscores why he's the wrong person to be president: IT'S NOT 1950!
That might have worked in the McCarthy era, but this is the 21st century and if you are still stuck in the middle of the last century, then you have no business leading our nation.
