GOP Candidate Joe Miller on Obama: "He's One of the Major Forces Moving This Country Towards Socialism"
Posted by Jim Hoft on Wednesday, September 1, 2010, 6:30 PM
GOP Senatorial candidate Joe Miller told John King today that Barack Obama is “one of the major forces moving this country towards socialism.”
True.
CNN reported:
A day after his opponent conceded the Republican primary for Senate in Alaska, Joe Miller took on both President Obama and the Republican political establishment Wednesday, warning that the nation is headed towards socialism and facing a dire fiscal crisis.
Incumbent Sen. Lisa Murkowski conceded to the Tea Party-backed candidate late Tuesday in what is considered one of the largest upsets of the 2010 midterm election cycle.
In a wide ranging interview with CNN’s Chief National Correspondent John King, Miller criticized the growth of entitlement programs and corporate bailouts under the Obama administration, and described Obama as “bad for America.”
“He’s one of the major forces moving this country towards socialism. He is expanding the entitlement state. It is the wrong direction for America,” Miller said in an interview that will air on CNN’s “John King, USA.”
Miller has made the threat of socialism a central theme of his campaign. In a new web video on his campaign website he warns that “our nation stands at a crossroads. It’s careening toward socialism and insolvency.”
However, he told King that he would not seek an immediate end to entitlement programs such as social security and Medicare.
“This is not a Joe Miller comes to D.C. and Social Security is gone, Medicare is gone. But what Joe Miller does do, and what those that I think are joining in this message do is get this government aback from the fiscal brink, back from bankruptcy so that we can ensure that the contracts that we’ve made with our seniors, that we can honor those,” he said.
Right on.

Joe Miller needs your support. The libs in Alaska (and poor-losers that supported Murkowski) are out in force. NEVER saw so many obots/trolls in the newspaper comments as we’ve had in the last two days.
Pray for Joe Miller and his win!

I am helping Karen Angle right now…. A couple of weeks I will send Joe some. It’s not a lot but I want to be part of our history to turn it back to our wonderful America.
btw…. I think Barry’s socialism is a cover up for muslim ism. Why is Saudi helping to find all the mosque and buying up businesses here?
My spell check keeps trying to get me to capitalize the muslim name. Hell no!
Ginger commented:
I meant Fund the mosques.
Craig Bardo commented:
I can’t wait to have more conservatives like him be impolitic. No moderate mamby pamby language, call it what it is!

This is captainfish saying that captainfish believes that captainfish is wanting to have captainfish reduce entitlements so that captainfish’s economy can grow once again. This will allow captainfish to have a growing market int eh captainfish economic , the free captainfish market, if you will…market, says captainfish.

I don’t think the U.S. is moving the country to socialism – it is already there; it is time to put an end to the nightmare.
gus commented:
He sounds just like John McCain. But without all of the kicks to the groin.
McCain should have said this all along and all of us here at Gateway KNEW THAT.

I’m sorry this is OT but I don’t know where else to post it or submit it – there is a story running on the USDA hosting the Muslim Brotherhood for a workshop on “direct access” to grants and funding. It can be found on Big Peace’s website – link is here:
http://bigpeace.com/cbrim/2010/09/01/department-of-agriculture-builds-a-stonewall-around-the-muslim-brotherhood-grants-workshop/#idc-container
And here I thought Muslim Brotherhood was a terrorist affiliated organization.
Again my apologies for digressing from the original post.

Joe Miller is causing the Democrats to spread their resources in places on the ignore list. Lisa was in the Union pockets like the women from Maine. I am glad to hear a Republican politician speak like Miller . It is TIME republicans voice opposition to socialism, say it like they really mean it, then pass real entitlement reforms. ..and the people will carve your face into mountains.
Chkn Fryd commented:
I thought everyone collecting social security, going to the VA, getting checked by airport security, wanting more border security, demanding tighter immigration laws, and eating safe eggs were pushing the country toward socialism?
If AK is tired of big government control, how about stop taxing the oil so much AND giving us our pork back?
It’s time to put and end to jingoistic nationalism. To donate to Harry Reid’s campaign.
Wit is dry.
Elly commented:
Chkn Fryd – are you aware of the difference between regulations that help keep our country and its citizens safe and government control that squeezes the life out of freedom of choice and forces people out of their non-union, non government jobs and into the bread lines?
We may have safe eggs due to regulation, but at least for now we still have private owned farms we can buy them from. Not everyone has health insurance, but a large portion of the country does and enjoys the right to choose who they go to and what kind of coverage they want. While we need federal regulations to ensure that all banks lend and hold funds in a legal manner, we don’t need them all bought out by Uncle Sam and we don’t need a special few to be injected with funds by personal money tree, Maxine Waters.
And that’s the difference Fryd – power and the use of power.
Oversight and provision can help the people of this country or it can be taken too far and abused – the difference is who’s hand the power is in and how far will they take it? The people do not trust this joker of a president nor the clowns he’s surrounded himself with.
The liberal argument of all or nothing is rediculous and circumvents the true issue of corruption and abuse of power.

I just sent him $50, he looks like presidential material to me, I am so tired of these liberal ppuussiieess running this country
anonymous commented:
He sound like another RINO. Alaska wanted Mitt Romney to run for President than Sarah Palin. No way. Romney won’t get the nominee in 2012. I would like to see Palin or Rep. Paul Ryan of Wisconsin to run for President.

You really do not have much knowlege of history and cause and effect do you? If your ignorance was not overpowering your mind you might be able to tolerate the truth. The world really is black and white, right and wrong. Especially when it comes to fiscal policies.
powder is dry and chkn spit for brains.
