Ur right about then using the competition between nazis and international communists but that's like saying if the two kidnappers get into a fight about who gets to rape the girl that one of them is now a saint.

I get the line of reasoning and I actually agree with it so long as the American left doesn't automatically get lumped in with communists. 
And so long as it only gets lumped in with socialists if it is trying to have the government own productive enterprises. the closest thing we've had to a socialist president in my lifetime was George W. Bush who bought up AIG, and then Obama bought GM with funds that were appropriated under Bush. But Obama said that these were both temporary moves, and he directed the government to sell both of these assets back to the private market. He was no socialist.
