This doesn’t sound very Marxist or Socialist to me, but I could be wrong:
“President Obama started off with an unprovoked verbal assault on Venezuela. In an interview broadcast by the Spanish language television station Univision on the Sunday before his inauguration, he accused President Hugo Chávez of Venezuela of having “impeded progress in the region” and “exporting terrorist activities.”

Your thoughts?
Well, it seems the majority of the posters on here STILL don’t know what Marxism means…what a surprise
Liberal Asskicker You must’ve missed this update from FOX News..every time you post you show your ignorance

well, Bill Clinton had a lot of harsh words for Al-Qaeda when they bombed the USS Cole, but he took no action!! in 1996, Clinton actually had the chance to capture Osama Bin Laden. the Libyans offered Bin Laden to the CIA, but Clinton turned them down!! the bottom line is that actions speak louder than words.
Obama is a commie….. we need to stop socialism!
Goodness–and just this morning there was a question about Obama admiring Hugo Chavez. Isn’t that interesting?

Not that I personally call him a Marxist… however, I do know it’s not about what he says as it is about what he does… Everytime you support something that allows Government control over peoples lives and choices and things that allow people’s sense of entitlement to grow… People will consider that Socialist and Marxist…
Vermin, then there are millions of deranged folk out there then, because Fox News tops ratings all the time… even above CNN and Network Media.
DERANGED people like FoxNews watchers are cognitively impaired, you must excuse them…
That sounds scary but interesting.
I only watch fox news for the legs.
Apparently Obama hadn’t had Michelle’s special koolaid yet.
Every time The Obama opens his mouth I (and everyone else) lose 1-2% from my(our) 401(k)!
He is a freaking genius when it comes to collapsing an economy and destroying people lives.

This video explain all my thoughts
Obama’s actions speak much louder than his words.
And Soviet Union once went to war with China. Obama might not be a far-leftist, but his views are still leftist.
Obama says differnet things to different crowds. He habitually speaks out of both sides of his mouth. He is perpetually in campaign mode. He cannot be trusted to actually say what he thinks. He has to be told what it is he actually thinks on any given day. He cannot be trusted.
It totally depends on which side of his mouth you are listening to.
Government controlled banks, federal health care, wealth redistribution. Those are all tenents of a socialist(Marxist) government. All things Obama has planned for us. Yapping at Chavez is just BO making noise
You’re not very smart, are you?
The stupid liberal media will describe what Obama said rather than telling you what he said, and you’ll believe every word of it.
We call Obama a socialist because his actions prove it. He wants to bankrupt America under the weight of nanny state programs. To date, he has QUADRUPLED the annual budget deficit of Bush’s worst year.
hey i’ll agree with you on that one. he’s no marxist. he is, however, a SOCIALIST! and since you are so keen on his policies, can i send you my address so you can make my house payment? because i’m going to be contributing to plenty of other people’s mortgage payments!
words vs action. remember everyone loved mussolini in the beginning. this is still the beginning. just sit back and watch. see what happens.
so no matter what he says, regardless of his actions to the contrary, you believe him? he also said he wanted to “redistribute the wealth”, that is socialism. how do you reconcile that?
The Republicans are mad as hell that Obama won. They practically invented overblown rhetoric, political hype.
For years and years the Republicans used the word ‘liberal’ for anything they didn’t like or anyone they disagreed with. Newt Gingrich called President Clinton ‘the most liberal president in US history’. You’d expect more from a guy who has a PhD in American history, a Gingrich does. All he really meant was that he really really didn’t like Clinton.
Finally the L-word completely lost its meaning. So now they say ‘communist’, ‘marxist’, ‘stalinist’, ‘socialist’. The words are all interchangeable. Anyone who calls Obama a marxist is showing that either he doesn’t really understand Obama at all or he doesn’t know what marxism is. It’s just a bad word, so Obama must be one.
The Republicans are throwing everything they have at Obama. They desperately want him to fail, no matter how much damage it does to the country, so they can blame all our problems on him and get back into control. Their strategy has always been to win at any cost. They don’t have any good alternative ideas, so all they can do is criticize Obama and obstruct whatever he wants.
Watching Fox news is the equivalent to watching your toilet to get information. Obviously, the viewers don’t get real facts. So far they’ve used the following- socialist, communist (which is it? can’t be both), terrorist Muslim, messiah, space alien, satan, and the list goes on. Obviously, true journalists would not use such terms, and anyone who watches that kind of garbage isn’t too sharp. This is why no one takes the Republican party seriously anymore.
Obama is not an out and out Bolshevik like you and your friends. But he IS a Pinko. A Pinko is someone who’s weakness and proclivity toward collectivism enables the full-blown Leninists like you guys to gain ground. Pinko’s don’t engage in the revolt, but they do collaborate, and therefore must be imprisoned with the commies. But just because Obama is a Pinko doesn’t mean that he can’t be involved in nationalist conflict with other Leftists. You guys have a long history of that. Tito vs Stalin. Mao vs Khruschev. Didn’t your peeps take notes when it was all happening? You have to rely on Capitalists to explain it to you?
Those who do so are idiots and red baiters. I wish he was a Marxist, but unfortunately he’s far from it.
Of course he is not a marxist!
Everyone who calls him that is ignorant.
And for those who call for him to back up his words with action – do you want him to invade another sovereign nation? After the last election worked out so well?
Obama, sometimes is beginning to bug me. He was for change and now he’s ranting at Chavez? What gives? Maybe I should watch a little Faux News now and again.
Naw!
