All this talk about Socialism regarding Obama and healthcare potentially puts Republican politicians in a difficult situation. The estute left-winger will ask, “Well what about Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid? Are they Socilaist too?” The correct answer is “of course they are,” but fat chance getting an elected Republican to admit this.
Gary DeMar has an excellent discussion of this little rhetorical problem here.
