"Communism", "Totalitarianism", "Socialism" et al.
Can't wait for these words losing their impact in a few years just like the "Terror Alert Threats" and their matching colors lost their meaning. So please GOP, keep up the good job.

What I found amusing was for 8 years you accused Bush of being a dictator yet you openly called for his death and not one of you ended up in jail nor, did DU get shut down.

17. "Capitalism" is a vile thing. I'm glad people are starting to hate the word.
Capitalism isn't a system of Govt its an economic system. Though capitalism does require a free society to operate.

6. The best is when they use facist and socialist in the same sentence.
These people don't know what the **** they are talking about.
Well both systems have similar elements. Govt owns and controls the economy. In practice there is no difference. On paper a slight difference. Under socialism everyone is supposed to be partial owners, fascism its the govt that owns it all. In reality though the Govt owns and controls everything.

14. I'm a pretty small guy. At certain times, I was surrounded by at least 50...
screaming freepers.
One guy threatened to kill me. Another guy offered money to anyone that would assault me. Most of them just got really close to my face and screamed as loud as they could.
It was funny when they would tell me I was wrong, bust out pocket constitutions, look up the "part that proves me wrong" and then their face would turn white.
Yes the constitution says that the government can levy taxes. I had at least 10 people tell me otherwise.
Sure you were.

27. The right throws these words around so recklessly,
they no longer have any clear meaning.
No they do have meaning and we are determined to fight it.
Now the way you all throw the word racism around it has lost its meaning.
