The Most Iggyotic Thing I've Ever Heard On Dennis And Callahan

It was a weird show this morning. There were several times when it seemed Iggy was about to go off, and each time, either John or Gerry cut the witless boy wonder off at the knees. It seemed like no one was in the mood to listen to Sir Spews-A-Lot. Then, just when you thought it was safe to turn on your radio, the Great Red Hope struck during Emails and Buzzerbeaters.

I forgot the exact topic Gerry was discussing, but he ended his thought with something like that dovetails nicely into giving us socialism like Obama wants. At this point Iggy actually said that Obama was not a socialist. He then spouted off for a minute, ending with "good, then we're all on the same page because Obama doesn't want socialism either." I don't even need to ask the question because we already know the answer; yes Iggy, you are that stupid. A socialist is exactly Obama and all liberals are. Socialism is what they have been working towards for decades.

What has sheople like you fooled is that he has taken the "you eat an elephant one bite at a time" approach. His initial tax increases will be on "the rich", you know, those rotten bastards who have the nerve to make more than $250,000 a year. Besides, its only a percentage point increase of three percent to bring the highest tax rate to 39.6%. Of course, next year, the highest rate will be pushed up to 42%. Then, in 2011, it will be 45%, and the cutoff will be $200,000. Do you get it Iggy?

It's the same approach Obama has taken with socialized medicine. He saw how people in the 1990's revolted against a European-style government takeover of the health care system. Still, the failures of socialized medicine in Europe and Canada be damned, Americans need it too. He's not going to make the same mistake as Billary, though, he's going slide the bat up our asses a little at a time. The first step will be to spend hundreds of billions of dollars to provide coverage for uninsured people. Notice, I did not write Americans, I wrote people, because anyone with a brain knows our tax dollars will be spent on illegal aliens. Then, once people are used to this "safety net", laws and regulations will be passed making it more more difficult, and more expensive for private businesses to provide health insurance. Slowly but surely, more and more people will fall into the safety net until a tipping point is reached, and we'll be told that it will just make sense for the government to provide health insurance for everyone.

What Obama is not, Iggy, is a communist. What's the difference? A communist is an ideologue, who believes that everyone should make the same amount of money no matter what they do, or how hard they work. A communist mistakenly believes that under communist Marxism, all people will altruistically band together for the greater good - in spite of all of the historical evidence to the contrary.

A socialist, like Obama, is much worse. Though still a Marxist, a socialist has learned that true communism does not work. Rather than a system where everyone makes the same amount of money no matter what, a socialist wants a system where a minority percentage of the population innovate, work hard and generate wealth and prosperity - and then are forced to helplessly stand by while the government takes whatever it wants, like a protection racket gang cracking open a shopkeeper's cash register. The only trick is to find the balance, where they don't take too much and kill the geese that lay the golden eggs.

When you get down to the nitty gritty, that's what a socialist is; a common street hood. Obama wants the wealth of hard-working Americans to pay for health care, day care, housing, food and anything else that the freeloader wants. After all, that's what a socialist does.
