"You didn't build that!" and Obama's Grade School Marxism

Can we FINALLY put this "issue" to rest?

What are you asking? I think everyone can agree that no man owes no debts to society for what he owns, (as the video shows) that the quote has been horribly misconstrued and intentionally misrepresented, and that the speech was not a good idea for Obama all around.

So, does it prove that Obama is Marxist?----------------------------------

Well, define what you mean by Marxist.

Most likely, he will be to some extent. But if you're trying to claim that he's a secret socialist, trying to ruin America or whatever, then you'll have to look elsewhere than this speech. While some may disagree with the message he gets at the end (rich people should pay more taxes), the points he makes are valid.

It is now 2015 and the Obama bashers are still touting that line.
