A Sad Excuse for a Law Professor
A Sad Excuse for a Law Professor
by RS Davis The Freedom Files  Hello Freedomphiles! Everyone else is talking about the new Obama clip, so I thought I'd weigh in. I wrote a Nolan Chart exclusive about it. Excerpt: I'm sure you've all heard the clip going around of Barack Obama saying that the Warren Court was not radical enough. The right-wing pundocracy is going apoplectiv over this, screaming "Socialist!" from every rooftop, writhing in agony over "redistribution of wealth." But it's all empty rhetoric - a last ditch effort to find Obama's achilles heel and somehow pull a McCain victory out of the fire. Conservatives already accept redistribution of wealth - I mean, how often do you see a Republican calling for the abolition of welfare? And how often do you see them vote against some corporatist giveaway? I'd say the $700 billion dollar gift they gave the banking and financial industry indicates they aren't too concerned about "redistribution of wealth." We're all Socialists now, apparently. Click here to read the rest, and while you're there, don't forget to click the thumbs-up icon at the top of the page!

So true, while I don't care for either, welfare is a far less evil then corporate welfare.

Absolutely spot-on, RSD. Another fine example of the myriad, odd inconsistencies in the conservative philosophy.
