Homestead mailing list

[bob ford <bobford79 AT yahoo.com>]

Gene; Obama's largest contributors, from specific entities, start with 
Goldman Sachs, and then a litany of other investment banks and hedge funds.  
He is more of the same that you seem to despise .  How can a man as smart and 
well read as you, call him a "revolution"?  
 
The greedy corporate types to which you refer are Obama's biggest 
contributors.  If you want my definition of Socialism, I'll be glad to 
acquiesce, but why?  You know what's happening.  You remember when we had 
more freedoms, less restrictions, liberty to act and live our lives without 
anyone checking to see if we were living to their standards.  
 
You have a political crush on Obama, that's fine.  But don't try to fool 
yourself into thinking that he's going to slap down the big money boys.  They 
already own his soul.  Pretend that he is John The Baptist, come to reveal 
national salvation, and your heart will be broken.  He is just another 
'headpiece filled with straw'.  ..........bobford

Since James cares not to define socialism, perhaps you will take a  
shot at it. I can't figure out what it is anymore. As a country we  
have essentially eliminated social welfare while raising corporate  
welfare to high levels. Too many of the hypocritical D.C. Whorehouse  
crowd say they detest socialism but they dole out gobs of it to their  
rich friends who then give some of it back to the Whorehouse crowd. We  
borrow trillions and then spend it on giant greedy and mismanaged  
companies who privatize profits and socialize losses. The Iraq  
Invasion was a gift to all the many Halliburtons of the party of  
business.

The revolution is named Barack Obama.
