I spent a couple years living in Brazil. During that time, I walked all over the city of Sao Paulo. There was always something interesting to see and smell... Everything seemed exhotic, even though I didn't really know the details of what I was seeing or smelling...
Years later, I found myself dealing with a plumbing problem in our 75 year old house. We had a basement with a floor drain in the old place that was backing up--and getting worse all the time. Being the do-it-yourselfer that I am, I did what I could to diagnose the problem myself. That meant checking the various drain pipes leading to the floor, etc. Periodically I'd get a whiff of something that really made me feel like I was back in Brazil. You know what they say about the sense of smell and our memories... Anyway, after some speculation on what was happening, I decided to do an experiment. I found some red food coloring and squirted the whole bottle into the toilet upstairs and repeatedly flushed the toilet. Sure enough, the water that seemed to be getting higher in the basement suddenly turned red... It all made sense at that moment. I had been walking through, well, you-know-what, all that time in Sao Paulo... I suddenly didn't feel so good about wearing flip-flops either... The truth was exposed...
This week a real plumber exposed another truth. Here's the story: "Your new tax plan is going to tax me more, isn't it?" the plumber asked, complaining that he was being taxed "more and more for fulfilling the American dream."
"It's not that I want to punish your success. I just want to make sure that everybody who is behind you, that they've got a chance for success too," Obama responded. "My attitude is that if the economy's good for folks from the bottom up, it's gonna be good for everybody ... I think when you spread the wealth around, it's good for everybody."
The truth is finally exposed. Obama is a socialist. In spite of how angry I've been at the lack of outrage we've seen from the public, I'm glad the truth is finally offered from the man himself.
We're going to need a lot more plumbers during the next four years and anyone who dares to wear flip-flops does so at their own risk...

Lee says awesome article. Its too bad that an ordinary citizen has to be treated like a criminal or another politican for just asking a question. However it shows us that Obama is not just a socialist but he seems like a communist as well. I should make Lee make his own blog...
