Maybe our congressman is the only real anti-socialist on the national scene

At least, that's what this guy, who writes a newspaper column in New Jersey, says about our Favorite Son.
It's all so confusing. But maybe not so much. A commenter to the columnist noted:

"The American people will take socialism, but they won't take the label.."

We are, as a country, good at repackaging things to better suit our tender sensibilities.
