Read his other posts. You will sooner or later notice that he is a hopeless communist radical who abuses every story he can find to push his agenda, regardless of facts.

From where I am, it seems as if the republicans (at least the reasonable ones) are poundering to the left. One example given by the press here is Chris Christie.

From my point of view, the democrats are not in need to pounder to anyone since their base is stable and they have the image of being the only reasonable people left.
It is the republicans who are in need of a reasonable image.

Well, in a state like New Jersey, you cannot be too right wing to have a successful political career. Christie just barely beat incumbent Jon Corzine in 2009, who was very unpopular because of the state's high property taxes, and a representative of Goldman Sachs. I read about that election quite a bit, and Christie had basically campaigned as a moderate who had washed New Jersey clean of corrupt politicians and embezzlers as a federal prosecutor. But do you really think he is pandering to the left? He has a 74% approval rating because he did such a good job of getting the Garden State evacuated and cleaned up after Hurricane Sandy. How does that put him out in left field?

In regards to the communist allegations, can you please elaborate on how this individual is a communist? Does he want to take away our houses and nationalize farms? Does he want the government to own everything, including your toothbrush?
