Do you have a source for this? Because I always hear people claim this, but I never know for sure.

Every president we've had since FDR has been socialist to some degree, it's just a matter of how socialist. Obama is no more socialist than Bush was, but they're both too socialist for me.

Yes. He believes government should have the right to fuck with free market outcomes. Any politician who supports any tax plan which is not 100% transaction based is in fact a socialist in the economic sense.

Republicans say God exists. If God doesn't exist, how come the Republicans always say He does?

Checkmate, atheists.
