Bottom line: you haven't given any proof for your claim.

Again, nothing. How convenient for you that you can simply come out here in this forum and throw out unfounded accusations and offer nothing in the way of proof. Oh, how I wish you had been in my debate course in college.....
Since you show no inclination for offering any proof for your contentions, and are comfortable with that, I will let your posts speak for themselves.
Bottom line: on more than one occasion you have claimed that Obama is a communist, and have not offered any quotes where he is extolling communist ideals.
One last easy yes/no question: do you listen to Hannity and Limbaugh?

I am not sure what you are saying here, are you averse to socialism? Think about that before you answer. -
No, when it is voluntary as we see practiced by the Church in Acts. -
How about fire departments / police departments?
What about public utilities?
What about public highways?
Should we discontinue public assistance with respect to healthcare, welfare, etc? -

Everything I have offered is clear and convincing evidence. You know it and I know it. As far as listenng to those radio shows who in the world has time to sit and listen to radio shows? It is a rare occasion that I have time to listen to any portion of their shows. This is the last time I will answer that question. And it is irrelevant. Nothing more than a poor debate tactic comiing from someone who "cannot compete in the arena of ideas".:laugh:
Hmmm...... -
I will try again: yes or no - do you listen to Hannity / Limbaugh?
It isn't that hard - just a simple yes/no...................................... -
The Congress shall have Power To... provide for the common Defence and general Welfare of the United States [This would include Fire and Police protection, and public utilities.] To regulate Commerce with foreign Nations, and among the several States, and with the Indian Tribes; [This would include public highways] Source: http://www.usconstitution.net/const.html#A1Sec8
Welfare n. 1. health, happiness, or prosperity; well-being. Welfare in today's context also means organized efforts on the part of public or private organizations to benefit the poor, or simply public assistance. This is not the meaning of the word as used in the Constitution. Source: http://www.usconstitution.net/glossary.html#WELFARE
While there is no provision in the Constitution specifically for public education I believe that it could fall under the use of the term "welfare" as defined above. However, I am a big supporter of removing this responsibility from the federal government and returning it solely to the people at the state and local level.
Likewise, I am not against the provision of healthcare for the most needy among us. This clearly falls within the idea of "welfare" as defined above. However, I am flat against a government imposed national socialized healthcare system in which everyone must participate with no recourse for providing individual care provided at personal expense. Rather, I say get government out of the way and let the free market do what it does best.
Finally, these social issues you have raised here do not really fall into the classic Socialist agenda of government imposed redistribution of wealth. These are simply a means for meeting the common need. These agencies (other than the NEA) aren't used to tax the wealthy and redistribute that money to masses. They simply provide a service to all.
So now we have chased another red herring which has nothing to do with BHO's self admission that he was mentored by a known member of the Communist Party. Again, does it not concern you that BHO was mentored by a member of the Communist Party. Likewise, he has a connection to Marxist Saul Alinsky through his work as a "community organizer" in Chicago. More about Alinsky here: http://www.tysknews.com/Articles/dnc_corruption.htm
Do these radical connections and associations cause concern for you? -
BTW, I have yet to see anyone calling for the "redistribution of wealth."
Obama may have had connections to a member of the Communist Party. As I have already shown, several people have been tutored/mentored/advised/otherwise by Communists, Socialists, and Marxists. This doesn't always create cause for concern, especially given the fact that I don't hear Obama espousing communist ideals. Has anyone given us quotes from Obama where he is advocating communism? Nope.
What exactly is your issue with this?
An honest question,
BiR -
BHO's proposed "windfall profits tax on big oil" and using that tax money to issue $1,000.00 to every citizen is a government enforced redistribution of wealth.
BHO is a weak inexperienced politician, having served only 143 days as a US Senator before running for President, who has been mentored by and who freely associates with known Communists, Socialists, Marxists, and self-admitted unrepentant terrorists. See Obama Nation for the evidence and sources that support this information. -

I wholeheartedly agree. This stuff should not have happened. However, our Liberal Democratic (read that Socialist) led Congress shares in the blame for this mess. -

The best way to destroy capitalism is to tax it to death. It is indisputable that taxes inhibit the economy.

So are you calling Warren Buffett a socialist/communist, Bible-boy?

Sorry but I am having a bit of difficulty understanding your sentence. You are calling Warren Buffet a Communist?

How about all the soldiers Kerry maligned falsely and the lies he told about what he saw and did n nam. -
You are just throwing up red herrings to try and shift the focus off of BHO. Please debate the issue of the OP and stop introducing off topic nonsense.
