I agree with Chomsky as I do 75% of the time or so. Obama is almost Bush III. Which is why I find it funny that the right wing nut jobs hate him so much.

The worst thing happened. We knew very little about Obama. We did not know he was a closet Neocon.

Steve,

and others, I don't know if he can really be called a NEOCON? But , I don't know what to call him him without throwing out the expected insults?

True he acts like Bush the third, :facepalm: but, the other policies that are unBushie like?

How do you balance that out and put a label on him?

Besides clown, puppet, sell out?

I see him as a classic Neocon. He has done nothing to protect the middle class. Yes, he has made programs for the poor but that is what Neocons do. They are all about wiping out the middle class to create a two class society. I do not see where Obama has done anything for the Middle Class. I could be wrong but everything he does is a tax break for the rich or some entitlement to the poor. Besides his foreign policy which is everything Bush had started.

The vocal minority of the right wing now has a megaphone that wasn't always there -- Fox News, the Internet and Right Wing Talk Radio. Unfortunately, the weak of mind are vulnerable to that megaphone.

Noam plays no favorites. Neither did Howard...
