Good term -- I'll have to remember it.
Have you seen the step-by-step comparison between Bush's takeover and the Nazi takeover in 1933-
4? It's almost a one-to-one correspondence.
It's complete [censored].
Quoted message said:We are living is a fascist state, quite literally.
No, we are not. You are proving the truth of what Orwell wrote:
"The word Fascism has now no meaning except in so far as it signifies 'something not
desirable.'"
George Orwell "Politics and the English Language", 1946
You hate the U.S., for all the things that make it great, most especially for being capitalist and
for, more than anyplace else, protecting individual liberties against the collectivist tyranny you
wish to impose. Because you hate the U.S. and are a garden-variety leftist/collectivist, you
reflexively call the U.S. "fascist", but it's only because you don't like the U.S. from a
leftist/collectivist perspective, not because the U.S is fascist.
Quoted message said:We had a chancellor appointed without an electoral majority,
No, we didn't. Bush obtained a majority vote of the Electoral College, the constitutionally provided
method of selecting the U.S. President.
Anyway, even in parliamentary countries, a prime minister often is selected from a party that
doesn't have a parliamentary majority. That is not fascist. AGAIN, you prove only that you
hate the U.S.
Quoted message said:the rounding up of political opponents into the first concentration camp at Guantanomo,
No, not "political opponents", liar. Non-citizen enemy combatants, captured on foreign soil in
combat with the U.S. armed forces.
You just can't help lying.
Quoted message said:our Reichstag fire ( 9/11 -- there's evidence Bush knew about it beforehand,
Show it, liar.
Quoted message said:just as [censored] knew the Reichstag fire was planned, but didn't know the details personally),
In fact, traitor, the accepted belief is that the Nazis set the Reichstag fire. You are now accusing
the U.S. government of *committing* the 9/11 terrorist attacks, by virtue of your fatuous
comparison.
Quoted message said:followed by our Enabling Act (the Patriot Act) gutting civil rights.
The misnamed "Patriot" Act does not gut civil liberties. It is a threat to some of them, and I have
hopes that the worst excesses of it will be thrown out in court. Unlike in Nazi Germany, our courts
will take a hard look at it, and if the Supreme Court rules parts of it unconstitutional, those
parts will be discarded. Also unlike Nazi Germany, some of the Republican legislators who supported
the passage of the act are calling for reconsideration of parts of it. Neither the justices nor the
legislators are threatened with imprisonment or death. Your comparison is utterly specious.
There are parts of the "Patriot" Act that are necessary correctives to outdated laws. One that
immediately springs to mind is the ability to obtain a wiretap authorization on a person, not just a
phone line. This is a necessary and good change, and is not in any way "fascist".
Quoted message said:Like [censored], Bush has tried to turn people's attention away from domestic problems by Glorious
Foreign War, but his Stalingrad has come a bit earlier than [censored]'s. But, unlike [censored], who
took a country in a depression and revived the economy (temporarily), Bush has CREATED a
depression and destroyed the healthy economy and surplus he inherited from Clinton.
Bush did not inherit a health economy from Clinton. The dot-com bust began in 1999, and the downturn
began long before the election. Anyone who knows anything about business cycles knows that downturns
have their genesis long before the actual increases in unemployment and decreases in output.
But thanks for showing your blatant partisanship, as well as your utter ignorance of economics.
Quoted message said:
See you in the camps! (it's become a greeting around here).
It would be. Being an extreme leftist/collectivist, you only will live in a place inhabited by
others of your same traitorous hyperbole, and I'm sure you and the other losers *do* greet each
other that way.
