At least you have the decency to fess up to it bib-boy, I'll concede that much.

From the Congressional Progressive Caucus:

Allen West is denigrating the millions of Americans who voted to elect Congressional Progressive Caucus (CPC) members, and he is ignoring the oath they took to protect and defend the U.S. Constitution—just like he did. Calling fellow Members of Congress ‘communists’ is reminiscent of the days when Joe McCarthy divided Americans with name-calling and modern-day witch hunts that don’t advance policies to benefit people’s lives.

We hope the people of Florida’s 22nd Congressional District will note that he repeatedly polarizes the American people instead of focusing on their interests. When people like Rep. West have no ideals or principles, they rely on personal attacks. The CPC is proud to stand up for economic equality and civil and human rights for all Americans. Congress is having, and will continue to have, an ongoing debate about job creation, home foreclosuresand the issues that concern working families. But we will not engage in base and childish conversations that lower the high level of discourse Americans rightly expect from their representatives.

Sound familiar to anyone?

Sounds like liberal propaganda you would find written by tools on moveon.org.

Gramps, are you trying to say that you can't be personally happy, living in a society, unless there's a class of people who are suffering in poverty?

There's a wide gap between Communism and economic equality.

I and they couldn't be happier as long as they maintain their federally mandated poverty status so that they can continue to recieve their government benefits...

Suck much crank?

Nope. Just saying how odd it is that the Congressional Progressives claim they aren't commies while advocating a main element of that ideology...Marx and Engels would be proud. The end result of "economic equality" is most of the people end up suffering in poverty...except the elites, of course (to paraphrase a comment I heard recently, "Communism is for the people, not the Communists!"). That is the difference between capitalism and communism...the size of the "class of people who are suffering in poverty".

But Grampa, no Ideology is unique unto itself. Common traits run the whole political spectrum in some cases.
