Fine. Have it your way.

There are no "socialists" in Congress. There are just people who agree with every goddam principle and policy that a socialist would advocate, with the single exception of the government owning industry. And if you kicked one of these bastards hard enough, you bet he could think of a lot of big corporations he would love to see "nationalized."

Whatever you want to call them, and Bernie Sanders calls HIMSELF a socialist, for God's sake, their policies would mean the destruction of this country both economically and politically.

I understand why the term "socialist" is so politically charged. The political success of those who advocate socialist principles depends on their ability to hide their ultimate goals. Most Democratic leaders would agree with the positions of Kucinich or the Green Party. They're just not stupid enough to say it up front.
