The Spectacle Blog
I posted at the Examiner about the AmSpec newsmaker lunch today, but I question the wisdom of standing on the edge of Godwin's law and repeatedly declaring Obama a socialist. What Obama is calling for is no different than what most politicians call for -- yes, socialist policy -- but it's rarely called that.

If it walks like a duck, why not call it a duck?
We might as well have more honest words for what America is turning into.
The Waxman Obamacare bill is what I call "The Destroy American Freedom Act". I wish it were hyperbole. It isn't. I wish Sen Demint was engaged in hyperbole ... "If we lose healthcare, we will lose free market economics in America." ... but he's not.

Fellow Americans, you had better wise up. Please read on, to see how you are being fleeced.
And you just let it happen.

I'm just saying that if we were to use the term socialist whenever confronted with socialism, we'd be saying it all the time, and it would, again, not do much to advance the ball down the field.
