One Choice: Obama

In the waning days of this election we’ve heard the unenlightened refer to Sen. Barack Obama with a barrage of un-American -ist labels:

• Activist
• Leftist
• Elitist
• Black liberationist (friend of…)
• Terrorist sympathizer
• Socialist
• Communist (friend of…)
• Redistributionist (??? – ask Mr. McCain…)
• And this afternoon, on Chris Matthew’s show “Hardball,” former U.S. representative Tom Delay (himself no stranger to ethics scandals) labeled Obama a “radical Marxist.”

Well two can play that game. Here are some -ist words I’d use to describe the McCain/Palin ticket and campaign:

• Absurdist
• Alarmist
• Cabalist
• Copyist
• Dadaist (by accident)
• Demolitionist
• Divisionist
• Dogmatist
• Evolutionist
• Fascist
• Illusionist
• Imperialist
• Irrationalist
• Jingoist
• Malapropist
• Militarist
• Narcissist
• Nationalist
• Propagandist
• Rightist
• Roveist
• Simplist
• Unconservationist
