Barack Obama and Karl Marx: Two Great Tastes That Taste Great Together

POSTED BY: CubbyChaser

In his column titled "The Mask Slips" in yesterday's New York Times, brilliant right-wing thinker Bill Kristol drew an awesome comparison between Barack Obama and the demonic Nazi German father of Soviet Communism and atheistic anti-Jesusism Karl Marx

Obama was explaining his trouble winning over small-town, working-class voters: "It's not surprising then that they get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren't like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations."

…and in the original German in which Marx somehow always sounds better: "Die Religion… ist das Opium des Volkes."

That translates roughly to: "Religion is street-grade smack for the stupid common people."

So, as Kristol points out, this means that in essence Barack Obama was trying to tell religious Americans that they're all a bunch of junkies. And not just any junkies, but the kind of junkies that'll stab you in the eye with an AIDS-infected pen just to get at the quarter that's in your pocket.

Is this really what Barack Obama really thinks about Americans?

Obviously, the answer is yes.

Thank you, Mr. Kristol. You are a true American patriot, and maybe the greatest thinker since Karl Marx.

  1. The American people are largely media directed, aka easily swayed by the main stream, which is far left. I know many do not get fooled by the veil of lies about Obama but there are too many that do. His Change and sacrifice is all about the freedoms he will attempt to take away. Lets get back to the constitution.

  2. History, if it were taught or read, would teach us that we have to look at what politicians do, not just what they say when the microphones are on.

    If it looks like a duck and quacks like a duck, it a damn duck. Left of the most left leaves a candidate squarely in Marxist territory.

    Hopefully the American voting public will be smart enough to filter through the spin and listen to what he and those with whom he surrounds himself say about the US and how to respond to the tremendous needs facing us now.

    Hope for what? Change to what?

  4. Who ever had experience with Karl Marx and his ideas at the East Part of Germany or other communist countries must be shocked that America is even thinking to get a man near to the White House who is in favor of this terrible worse and destroying ideas.

    Is the world not learning. Read the history of Karl Marx and than think again.

    I have this experience over 40 years and thank to GOD that this time is gone. Even always groups come up again thinking this will help them to get money from the rich without working.
