I escaped from Vietnam Communist rule , this quote is so right , so USA must not have Socialism or Communism! -- Dao Nguyen, Houston ,TX
Using today's definition of liberalism YES, ABSOLUTELY. AND ! with today's vote on Obamacare, the 'slow motion' has been exchanged for the here and now hyper speed hurry ! -- Mike, Norwalk
Great!! -- warren, olathe
Always listen to someone who has escaped communism -- thanks, Dao. The problem today is that socialists are acceptable as long as we call them 'progressives.' ANYONE who uses the term 'progressive' for describing political ideology is in fact saying 'socialist.' Progressive debt, progressive dependency, progressive ignorance, progressive envy -- this is 'progress' for the communist. -- E Archer, NYC
