Thats why Im an Independant Voter. I see Socialists and Wimps on the Left and RIght selling us out. I vote for the BEST candidate, not some bumper sticker slogan created by some political hack on either side.
People need to listen more to opposing opinions and judge for themselves based on AS MANY points of view on any given political topic as possible.
It serves America, and the individual best to have an informed population. Not a political hack, kool aid drinking group of morons who will follow blindly and never question.

You are quite confused. In the spectrum of political theory, Socialism is one step before Communism. Conservatism, and then extreme Conservatism is a step below Fascism. The way you need to look at it is as follows: Being Liberal infers that you feel it is the government's responsibility to distribute social wealth, programs to all of the people, particularly those that are not well off at the expense of those who are. While to be conservative infers less government control, more freedom for the individual, and relies on human beings having compassion and supporting those in need through humanitarian efforts and through private good will. Thus, as is self evident...more taxes are required if the government is giving the responsibility to perform the actions which Conservatives believe should be in the hands of the private sector. Therefore, in general, Democrats are equated with higher individual taxes and Republicans are seen to be the party who prefers lower taxes and leaving the money in the hands of the free individual who will inevitably do the right thing. For example, Bill Gates foundation, Universities, etc.

Well, look at what the leading democrats are pushing for, National Healthcare, higher taxes, windfall taxes on the oil companies, heavy regulation on everything to stop global warming. Those are socialist type things.
But I do agree that comparing the GOP to Nazis is quite hysterical.

No, not me.
I characterize Democrats as all four: Socialists, Communists, Nazis, and Welfare People.
And I am correct.
That IS the 4 groups of people that make up the Base of the Democrat Party.
FACT!!!!!
