I can't believe that no one jumped on the fact that the original posting was so far off from the truth....did you happen to pick up some little clip from Fox News?

He did not call for the workers to accept lower wages, he applauded the willingness of people to throw aside greed to help their fellow worker. He never said that he was calling for more of this. It was one of many examples of coming together.

I just love how easy it is to throw around the word socialism to make people coming together sound like a bad thing. Those firefighters at the WTC sure were socialists. How dare they help their fellow americans!
