Fake Republicans Against Burr Blog


A socialist troll has been running a blog since March, posting drivel against Republicans in general, and US Senator Richard Burr in particular on a blog called "
Republicans Against Burr".

I call this person out as a fake Republican and a fake blogger. There is very little in the way of Republican philosophy on the blog and have noted that all the photos are hot-linked from other people's photobucket accounts without proper attribution. That is not cool, nor is it ethical behavior.

The "blogger" also has at least one other blog called "Eye No Stuff" that seems to be composed mainly of rants and financial links spiced with stolen photos.

Here are a few typical posts:



And I will leave you with an excerpt of one of his posts that could have been written by a faithful member of the Communist Party, or a Progressive in the Democratic Party, and NOT from someone registered as a Republican:

Those who have the wealth should pay the most for the privilege of living in a society that allowed them to build the wealth. And the wealth concentration in our country is simply out of control. Think long and hard about what I am going to type next:
  1. Less than 1% of Americans control over 34% of our nation's wealth.
  2. The top 10% of Americans control 71% of our nation's wealth.
  3. The bottom 40% control less than 1% of our nation's wealth.
And these were 2004 stats. It's probably worse now. Shocking! Absolutely shocking! But when put into the context of Ari's opinion piece, it makes Ari and the Republican party machine look foolish for whining about the wealthy having to pay taxes.

Those who can afford to pay should pay. They got wealthy on the back on all the institutions provided by our government. And when the top 10% of Americans control almost 75% of our nation's wealth, I would think they'd be grateful. They should keep their mouths shut about having to pay income tax. Pay it, and be grateful to live in America.



His statement lines up very well with the communist goal for society...

In a higher phase of communist society, after the enslaving subordination of the individual to the division of labor, and therewith also the antithesis between mental and physical labor, has vanished; after labor has become not only a means of life but life's prime want; after the productive forces have also increased with the all-around development of the individual, and all the springs of co-operative wealth flow more abundantly—only then can the narrow horizon of bourgeois right be crossed in its entirety and society inscribe on its banners: From each according to his ability, to each according to his needs!

So, in the coming 2010 election cycle, pay attention to the philosophies of people who are urging you to vote for or against a particular person and/or party to see how well they line up with your own philosophy.

The blogger in question may actually be a registered Republican, but their philosophy is closer to a communist type of socialism than anything else.
