On an unrelated note, I've yet to hear anyone explain in this thread how X percentage makes you a socialist, but Y percentage makes you a free market capitalist.

Until McCain denounces a progressive tax system, his "socialist" rhetoric is a bunch of hypocritical hooey.
If obama were lowering taxes instead of flat out re-distributing wealth I might agree with you. But when you tax one group to GIVE money to another, that's socialism. And as we've seen it started out 250K, now moving quickly to less than 100K.
