and wants to get rid of nuclear weapons
Tony your any idiot! He associated with communist party card carrying members and he has socialist views. He has literally given jobs for Americans to Asia, India and South America, there's a difference in free trade and loaning countries money that cause American companies to layoff Americans because they were betrayed by their President. We cut defense and stop making nukes and are disarming ours, his goal as he has said publicly, is to have zero nukes, to makes us seem friendlier towards the world. He also believes that if we disarm the other countries will follow. The Chinese, Iranians and N Koreans are loving this! That is how we become vulnerable to attacks. Yeah Carter sucked, Clinton made a few bad decision (Monica), but overall wasn't too bad, Obama is horrible! Wake up Tony. Go research. Like I said most on this post are to lazy to really do research or to look at more than one site, or to read the books of all sides!!!!
My reply:
"We seek the elimination one day of nuclear weapons from the face of the Earth." Ronald Reagan, Inaugural Address, January 21, 1985. I guess Ronald Reagan is a communist. You are a Mitt Romney supporter and you are concerned about sending U.S. jobs overseas? That is hilarious. Mitt Romney has sent U.S. jobs to China. Is Mitt Romney a Communist like Reagan? You watched a movie and this is your research.

(82,383 posts)"associated" - if the same standards were applied to anyone, we'd all be communists. Once speaking to a card carrying communist or even "associating" with him/her does not make one a communist, but right wing idiots make that leap. One guy, Van Jones, was supposedly a communist and Obama appointed him. To deranged right wingers that makes Obama a "communist."
These people are so stupid. I told them they were debating with me, were therefore "associating" with me and therefore were liberals. They do not even get their own lack of logic.
It's all "personal" with them. My favorite is the ridiculous idea that Obama's father isn't really Barack Sr but some guy that Anne talked to or was friends with, and that guy had some left leaning credentials, ergo, Obama is a communist. (political parties are truly genetic, so I guess I must have a different father I don't know about) They don't even realize it undermines their birther theories (the ones where Obama, though born in Hawaii, does not qualify due to having a foreign parent).
Your reply will definitely cause cognitive dissonance. Bet 10K he changes the subject.

(20,226 posts)what on earth is there to discuss? Especially when the cuckoos never allow themselves to be exposed to reality - even a traditional conservative reality - only cuckoo reality. How can someone talk to people like that?
