Well, neocons are Fascists, hopefully not the majority of Republicans, but in the obverse, they like to call us communist or Socialist, which were are far from being!
Here is the definition. You tell me they don't meet it and where they dont!
Fascism is a radical authoritarian political philosophy that combines elements of corporatism, totalitarianism, extreme nationalism, militarism, anti-communism and anti-liberalism.
I loved this Pchl!
"Once again, Bush is the opposite of a fascist. Fascists are tyrannical dictators don't have enough trust in the populace to make their own decisions".
Really, is that why he has signed over 700 slips so he doesn't have to go by the law and everytime he goes before a stacked in his favor Supreme Court he loses on Constitutional grounds.
Not only will he not allow you to make any decisions, he won't allow Congress either!!!!!
That sounds like a Fascist to me!

One trait of fascism is "suppression of the oppostion through terror and censorship". Every day, there are articles critical of Bush in practically every U.S. newspaper. TV is even worse. If Bush can't muzzle his critics, he's doing a lousy job at being a fascist dictator.
Who are the fascists? Look at the leaders of many Middle Eastern countries. They fit the bill exactly. Think about it. They are the dictionary definition of fascist dictators. This is why people like Bill O'Reilly denounce the tyranny of Bin Laden and his crew of Islama-fascists.
Bush is the opposite of a fascist. He is giving other countries freedom of choice. That is what democracy is all about. They write their own laws, they make their own policies. If, like Iraq, they make tenets of the Islamic religion part of their constitutions, we may not like it, but we don't put undue pressure on them. The Iraqis didn't make a clone of the U.S. Constitution. They made one that they could live with.
Once again, Bush is the opposite of a fascist. Fascists are tyrannical dictators don't have enough trust in the populace to make their own decisions. Fascists are the African strongmen who maintain a deathgrip on their countries while the people starve to death.
Bush, on the other hand trusts the capacity of the Middle Easterners for self rule. Liberals do not. Here's the proof.
Bush once made the remarkable statement about "the soft bigotry of low expectations". I want you to remember that quote. Think about what he is saying. I've talked to a lot of liberals about the war in Iraq, and when I bring up the obvious point that millions of people have now been given the opportunity to live in freedom rather than tyranny, they mindlessly object with silly, irrelevant arguments.
If I chide them enough, and make them hot under the collar, they will finally lose all control and exclaim, "Oh come on, you don't really expect that a bunch of volatile, irrational Arabs can handle democracy, do you?"
Whoa......! That's what liberals really think. They don't have confidence in Middle Easterners. They belive Arabs and Persians are ignorant and backward, incapable of ruling themselves without a strong dictator like Saddam keeping them in line.
Bush did not denigrate the people of the Middle East with the "soft bigotry of low expectations". Unlike the Democrats, he believes in their potential. He does not arrogantly belive that they can't handle democracy.
So, to all the people who accuse Bush of fascist thinking, remember that he is the most liberal, progressive thinker regarding foreign nations' ability to design and administer their own democratically elected governments, with free speech, rights for women, and guaranteed human rights.
Liberals only see a bunch of scary, fist pumping ragheads.
So, who's the real fascist?

No. Fascists are good people. Conservatives are Jew-dazed lunatics.

If you can factually link fascism to conservatism, I will say you are right. I doubt you can do it, however.
I, however, can link socialism to the democrats. It's not hard to do. In fact, can you find a democrat's idea or program, that is not a social one?
