Actually, Old Katie is frothing at the mouth and ranting about Obama in her usual mindless way and drags up Reverand Wright, William Ayers and <gasp> community organizing:

Now a new book by Stanley Kurtz -- a senior fellow at the Ethics and Public Policy Center and a Harvard PhD -- reveals why we should have probed the disconnect when we had a chance. Americans increasingly sense we were sold a bill of goods, and Kurtz explains why in "Radical-in-Chief: Barack Obama and the Untold Story of American Socialism." Our president isn't what he claims to be, says Kurtz. Obama's plummeting approval ratings, and the electoral tsunami about to hit Democrats, reflect voters' sense of betrayal.

In fact, Kurtz goes further, and makes an electrifying charge: Obama has purposely disguised what he believes, and is actively seeking to mislead the American people about his agenda. Obama, says Kurtz, is a socialist. He believes -- not in state ownership -- but in a savvier version of socialism that seeks to transform and undermine American capitalism through ever-expanding government control; irreversible entitlements; and a metastasizing public sector.


:rofl: Obama a socialist - only in my dreams, Katie.

1. I'm surprised she left out the words
Black Liberation Theology. The rest was straight out of Beck looney tunes land.

Usually I don't read it as it only raises my blood pressure but this one caught my eye and really was funny, in a twisted way.
