I find it fascinating that some people in a society that values freedom actually work to usher in or support politicians that want things that are normally associated with fascism, such warmongering, enhanced exectutive powers and reduced legilstative or judicial powers, approval of torture, increased criticism of press that disagrees with government, the smearing of all sorts of dissenters as traitors, increased monitoring of citizens without cause, and last but not least...the convenient labeling of anyone and everyone who disagrees with your agenda on any one of a myriad of issues as being part of one group. Clearly any normal freedom loving person can see the dangers that all these policies bring, so my question is how does an honnest freedom loving pro democracy person go down the path where they agree with all this stuff?
