Fascism is fascism...
   
When you take it upon yourself to decide who lives and who dies outside of the judicial process and outside of any review process, you are deciding who are the "enemies of the state" and you are acting like a fascist, whether you are a Democrat or a Republican or some other party.

When you expand the authority of the arm of the state to monitor the conversations and public speech of the citizenry, you are acting like a fascist, whether it's the internet, or the activities of a peace organization. When you harass those with views that run contrary to yours, and you use government agents to do it, you are acting like a fascist.

There are a lot of other things that define fascism, but some of them are debatable. Let's don't pretend that these ones are. If you want to defend these things as "necessary" or "part of the job of government", that's fine, too.

But understand what you are sticking up for.

A few of the DUmmies are upset, but some are backing the Fascist in Chief, currently in the White House.

It;s not like we didn't tell the DUmmies this before they rammed Health Care for everyone down our throats

That too and we can also add abortion and so-called net neutrality laws/Fairness Doctrine.
According to the Bible, "know" means "yes."

Think Jeff Foxworthy....

If you scratch a DUmmie.....you might find a fascist.
“The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948

"America is like a healthy body and its resistance is threefold: its patriotism, its morality, and its spiritual life. If we can undermine these three areas, America will collapse from within."  Stalin

That was good. This line right here earned you a H5!
All he does is pass anti-American bills and occupy the White House. :censored:
