Over time, we the taxpayers will be paying for the natural disasters which Bush and his cronies have failed to manage, but much worse are the unnatural disasters the Busheviks have created on their own: A failed war, unfathomable deficits, and the continuation and perfection of Clinton's police state legacy. Our constitutional principles are turning to ashes, and Bush not only fiddles while they burn, but pours gasoline on the fires.

However, the American people are smarter than the average human being. Because of that, I predict the Republicans will take a beating this fall, which will force the party to return to its forgotten Conservative principles. What is worse than a Liberal Democrat? A false Conservative who behaves like one - This is exactly what Bush is.

War, yes. Deficit, yes. Communism?!? I mean, I dislike Bush as much as the next liberal, but accusing him of trying to put the economy under state ownership is a little much.

Mmm...okay. Seeing how the only representation of communism we have seen on this green earth has had an enormous state, I stand by my statement.

Well than I'm not a communist or that state was not communist. Maybe that communist state never claimed to be communist, only socialist. Or maybe it was misnamed. It should have been called a state-capitalism.

Sorry. Theories look wonderful on paper. But I think we all know what people think of when they think of communism, and it's not a non-existant state.

Not talking about the economic part of Communism, but the police state part of it, which stems from the Republican belief that Americans somehow cannot function without a Federal nanny controlling their lives.

When people think about communism, they think about leninism and all the other authoritan branches of communism. Most communists today are not authoritans and are rather the opposite and have learned from the mistakes of the 20th century which is why I think its about time to start judging communists by their new ideals rather than the soviet ones. It's like saying the democrats and the southern democrats have the same platform.
