Well, I really don't care if Joan Harman stopped reading my letter, she obviously drank the Kool-Aid that Obama is doling out, but not everyone has so much animus toward anyone who is successful. But just to make sure we are talking about the same president that she doesn't think is a Marxist or socialist, here is a recounting on his beliefs through is words and or the programs, people and ideas he is and has supported.

Quoting Obama, the Tragedy of the Warren Court: "No redistributive change." He voted for TARP when he was a senator, a $787 billion stimulus redistribution bill. He asked for and supports a Single-Payer Health Care. He is a proponent of a Health Care bill admittedly about "redistributing the wealth." President Obama is now also president of GM and Chrysler. President Obama seizes control of insurance giant AIG. President Obama seized control of Student Loan industry in order to "cut out middle man." He Repeatedly vilifies "the rich." Obama believes race problems can be solved through redistribution of wealth... he said "race is still an enormous factor in our society. But economics can overcome a lot of racial division." He is trying to regulate the Internet via FCC. Obama told Joe the Plumber "it's better when you spread things (wealth) around." He shook down BP Petroleum for $20 billion for the oil spill disaster, depriving them of the Due Process promised by our Constitution. If he can do it to them, he can do it to you and me.

Family, friends, advisers and administration:

Jim Wallis, Obama's spiritual adviser and forced redistribution of wealth advocate. His wife Michelle Obama said "The truth is, in order to get things like universal health care and a revamped education system, then someone is going to have to give up a piece of their pie so that someone else can have more." Van Jones, disgraced Green Jobs czar and communist. Ron Bloom, manufacturing czar and anti-free market. John Holdren, pro-redistribution of wealth. Andy Stern, SEIU president and redistribution of wealth fan. Mark Lloyd, FCC "Diversity Czar," Anita Dunn, fan of Chairman Mao, Carol Browner, socialist, Robert Creamer, socialist.

I don't know about you Joan, but I tend to be around people who share the same values I do. And I believe President Obama does too. It's just that those people are Marxists and socialist, so that tells me a lot about him.
