Raised by Marxists. Father was anti-colonialist (read: anti-American). Mentor growing up was a communist. Hung out with radicals and communists in college. Mentored by Roger Ailes and Bernadine Dohrn, communists, after college. None of that probably had any effect on Obama's political leanings. But Allen West is a nut for pointing out the obvious? I think the better question is how could he not be a Marxist or socialist with that upbringing?

The one thing that's obvious is what Allen West is but I am not allowed to go there on this site.

Forget Allen West. What about the other facts that I raised?

The better question is: Why are all of Obama's critics continually accusing him of being something different? I can tell you why. It's because that is the most common way of bullying someone you don't like. Point out how he is different to justify YOUR actions. Which is it? Is he a Communist, Marxist, or Socialist? He cannot be all three. I have a feeling there is another difference behind the constant attacks.

Those words are used because they scare people. We've lived in a society with socialist programs for decades. It the same thing as when people want to compare people to hitler in some way. It's to over sensationalize the comparison to try to make people think said person is evil when in fact they aren't.

I know. It always says so MUCH MORE about the person making the accusations than it does the intended target.

You haven't raised any facts. You have reached more than the raiders do on draft day.

Actually, those are all verifiable facts.
