Barack Obama is no socialist. The label is pure campaign spin. However, it could be applied just as easily to Sen. McCain, as this article-excerpt demonstrates. (The source is the New Yorker magazine. No one has disputed the facts or quotes.)
During the 2000 campaign, on MSNBC s Hardball, a young woman asked him why her father, a doctor, should be penalized by being in a huge tax bracket. McCain replied that wealthy people can afford more and that the very wealthy, because they can afford tax lawyers and all kinds of loopholes, really don t pay nearly as much as you think they do. The exchange continued:
YOUNG WOMAN: Are we getting closer and closer to, like, socialism and stuff?. . .
MCCAIN: Here s what I really believe: That when you reach a certain level of comfort, there s nothing wrong with paying somewhat more
