Obama ridicules McCain charge he's socialist

Well, maybe you can indeed fool some of the people all of the time.

Now Barack Obama is "ridiculing" McCain's contention that he's socialist?

-------

RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) - Barack Obama accused Republican rival John McCain on Wednesday of stooping to low tactics by labeling the Democrat a socialist. "I don't know what's next," Obama, the presidential candidate, said at an outdoor rally in North Carolina. "By the end of the week, he'll be accusing me of being a secret communist because I shared my toys in kindergarten. I shared my peanut butter and jelly sandwich."

Who is this man kidding? Obama's socialist connections from the past have been well documented, including the information on his membership in the socialist New Party in his early days in Chicago politics. This blog has painstakingly documented that information HERE.

And how about his own words where he said he sough out Marxist professors in his college days? This is from his own book, as this FoxNews article spells out:

Article: Obama's Affinity To Marxists Dates Back to College Days

Obama's affinity for Marxists began when he attended Occidental College in Los Angeles.

"To avoid being mistaken for a sellout, I chose my friends carefully," the Democratic presidential candidate wrote in his memoir, "Dreams From My Father." "The more politically active black students. The foreign students. The Chicanos. The Marxist professors and structural feminists."

Of course, the Che Guevara flags in his Houston campaign office (see above) should have been a red flag way back in February of this year, as WorldNetDaily reported in this article:

I'm convinced that if the media were doing it's job of properly vetting Obama and shining a light on his questionable past, John McCain would be certainly leading in the polls right now. Of course, it would have also helped if McCain had run a more effective campaign.
