It doesn't mean what I think you think it means...

WASHINGTON — A Republican congressman from Georgia said Monday he fears that President-elect Obama will establish a Gestapo-like security force to impose a Marxist dictatorship.

I... Ah... Well... Erm...

No, seriously. How can you be in congress and not know the basic layout of different political ideologies? I mean, I FAILED History repeatedly in school and consistently slept through our units on the second world war (I blame channel nine running Star Trek TNG episodes at 11 at night). I still know that one of those things is NOT like the other.

Dear GOD. It frightens me people actually voted that idiot into office.

A frightening number also think socialism = communism, and also think health care = socialism therefore = communism...

I don't know, when I was in high school we were actually taught political systems, but I guess to each their own!

It frightens me how many people look down on the idea of everyone, regardless of their financial situation, should have access to health care. It's one of the most basic signs of a successful civilisation. I mean, even the bloody Egyptians looked after their workers that built the friggin' pyramids. Oh that's right, they're middle eastern. Don't want to be like the ay-rabs.

Oh my god, now the Ay-rabs are communist!
