It'd be interesting to see what reasoning our forum teabaggers use (is that an oxymoron?) to come to the conclusion that a communist by definition doesn't believe in the constitution. If anything this statement seems to indicate that the teabaggers themselves don't even know what's in the constitution.

AND they have no idea what communism is.

Does this help you in any way? Poor souls who are sitting in Havana and hoping the likes of you will be coming to their help.

They're as likely to be sitting around and waiting for our help as we are waiting for theirs.

What happened to Bush's War Czar? You nuts don't even realize the administration doesn't call people czars. It's the media and Fox News that does.

They don't call them communist either. They just quietly fire them at midnight Sundays.

The nutters have no idea what they are talking about. They'll call the same person a communist, a socialist and a fascist. As someone said, "Healthcare is the least of our problems. We have an education problem."

\If Republicans had gotten everything they wanted for the last seventy-five years or so, the United States of America would have no Social Security, no Medicare, no Aid to Dependent Children, no civil rights, no environmental protections, no privacy rights to make contraception legal. There would be no business taxes, either,...more here about GOP contributions to the common welfare
... On the other hand, consider what the Republicans gave Americans during their last eight years in power: They were asleep at the switch when Osama bin Laden attacked, overreacted by invading a country that had not attacked us (at the cost of about $1 trillion dollars and hundreds of thousands of lives), saddled the country with $43 billion a year in unfunded Medicare mandates and another $1.7 trillion in unfunded tax cuts for the rich ($2.5 trillion according to a new study by Citizens for Tax Justice [PDF wrote: ) — then followed their market fundamentalist ideology right over the economic cliff and sent the whole planet spinning into recession."]
