In the crazy USA, if one is not a far right fascist like Dick Cheney or Tom DeLay, for example, one is labeled a "communist". In a civilized area like Western Europe as well as other parts of the world, Obama and the whole Democratic party would be considered as right wing and the GOP as a bona-fide fascist party. Onama would be considered a moderate right wing politician and Hillary as less moderate right winger. There's no "left wing" in this country, let alone communists. The US is so far to the right, that moderate right wingers like Obama are labled as "communists" by the crazy ignoramuses.
