He has fascist tendencies - Various scholars attribute different characteristics to fascism, but the following elements are usually seen as its integral parts: nationalism, authoritarianism, militarism, corporatism, collectivism, totalitarianism, anti-communism, and opposition to economic and political liberalism.
I would argue Bush has a dose of christian fundamentalism that adds a whole new dimension to the idea of fascism - making it something new and unique.

1. Gun registration.
2. Party control of Major Media outlets.
3. Euthanasia.
4. health care controlled by Government.
5. Oil Controlled by Government.
6. Cradle to grave social benefits.
Well, now that I look at it, it looks more like the 2008 Democrat presidential election platform.

I don't believe so, but usually you can't prove who is a fascist until his actions are done. Did the Germans say Hitler was a fascist? The natural answer is no, after the Trial at Nuremberg did they realize how much they were accountable as much as he was.
So whomever, Liberal or Conservative, Republican or Democrat or Independent. Remember this important message. If you believe he is do something or you sit down and take the judgment by the charge of turning the other way!

Bush wants to rule the world. He is an evil war-monger. Even the fascists would disown him.

Yes he lies to AMerica...http://www.commondreams.org/news2005/0107-09.htm .... with his covert propaganda, like all other U.S. presidents he puts an economic slavery on all of latin america, minus cuba. HOw you ask? Controlling who they trade with, NAFTA, for example in Mexico, they borrow money and he tells them exactly what they are going to spend it on. Plus he wasn't ever elected president the first time, but his brother fixed the election for him. And he kills for oil. What did I miss?
