The USA presidential election reminds me of the 1980'sElection in Jamaica. Remember those days when Edward Seaga accused Michael Manley of being a socialist even a communist. Those days the socialist label was a death knell for any politician.

Republican John McCain is now 3 decades later accusing Obama of being a socialist. Reason he wants to tax the rich and give tax cuts to the middle class. Obama said he will give tax break to those who make less than $250,000 per year. Guess what? We are just finding out that only 5% of American makes over $250,000 per year. So 95% of Americans are saying to Obama, socialize me baby.

It is interesting to note that John McCain wants to give a major tax break to himself and the other 4.999999999% of Americans. So what do we call that? Fascism, McCainism, Bushism, Capitalism, Marxism, Socialism? How comes his plan does not have a name? Also what do we call the 700 billion dolllars of tax payers money that Bush is giving to the banks? I guess Save Ameircaism.
