Who really cares if Barack Obama is a communist or socialist? Compared to the last 7 long years of having this idiotic moronic bloodthirsty murderous corrupt pathologically-lying sociopathic demonic fascist slimeball known as Dumbya in the White House, America would be well served to have a large amount of corrective action put in place by a communist or socialist. The simple fact is that President Cheney and his little dummy have easily been the worst leaders this country has ever had, and certainly ever will (arguable the worst in world history). I mean they even make Adolph Hitler look like a great guy. At least Hitler took care of his own people. You can’t even say that about Dictator Bush. I doubt you’ll ever find anyone more universally despised across the universe than George W. Bush. He has become so mentally deranged that today he even said we’re not in a recession.

With an over 80% unapproval rate, I bet he’ll be on the phone soon to his old friend Jimmyjeff. You know… the bald guy who pretended to be a journalist by going to a weekend seminar, then got a job working for a reich-wing kkkonservative website and then suddenly, magically, got a White House Press Room pass… something that even real journalists who’ve been working politics for years can’t even get… and was then exposed as a reich-wing Repugnican shill. What was his name again??? Oh yeah… that’s right. It was Jeff Gannon. You remember him… the guy with the website who is a gay prostitute and full naked photos of himself and the services he provides other men. And only men. Anyway… with all this stress on ol’ psycho George, I bet he’ll be calling up Jimmyjeff for another one of his special massages with “happy ending” soon.
And gee now that I think about it, wasn’t it strange how the media suddenly dropped this story like a hot potato? Almost as strange as all the coverups surrounding 9-11.

Anyway, today I was reading that the poverty level in the U.S. is artificially set at just $10,000 per year. However, if you become permanently disabled through no fault of your own and can no longer work, you will receive an average of $600 per month to live on (assuming you can even pass the tough test of being deemed disabled, which I hear is a lot harder than the TV commericials make it look). Now then, if there is no housing available within 50-75 miles below $500,000, then how does one live on $600 per month?

So they move? OK how? (And what if they’ve lived in their area their entire lives??) In order to qualify for disability you cannot have assets totalling more than $2,000. TOTAL. That includes a car. So tell me how a disabled person is supposed to live on $600 per month then? And if they’re supposed to move, how do they do it? Movers cost money, and a disabled person can’t move their own things, obviously. So what do they do, become homeless? I guess that’s what you Rethugnican fascists want. Kinda funny when we’re supposed to be the greatest country on the planet. The home of the free and the brave. Justice for all. Bwaahahahahahahaha!!

In European Union countries though, they set their poverty rate not artificially as we do in the U.S., they set it according to 60% of average median income. Now THAT is realistic. If the average annual income is $30,000, then a disabled person would receive $24,000 per year to live on. That’s workable.

$600 per month is an obscene gesture like a kick in the teeth to someone when they’re down. And it’s especially revolting considering we’re the richest country on the planet and in the history of the world, particularly when the latest cost estimates of the boondoggle in Iraq are running at $1 to $1.5 trillion, and counting.

So, I’m all for Barack and think flushing George Bush-style capitalism down the toilet into the cesspit of history is a fantastic idea. After reading this article, I’d be even MORE inclined to vote for Obama now!
