I need to thank my good friend and associate Floyd for the following link.

Understanding the enemy is the first step to defeating them.

From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fascism

"The word fascism has come to mean any system of government resembling Mussolini's, that

1. exalts up nation and sometimes race above the individual,
2. uses violence and modern techniques of propaganda and censorship to forcibly suppress political opposition,
3. engages in severe economic and social regimentation, and
4. espouses of nationalism and sometimes racism or ethnic nationalism."

I hope some of these things look familiar to you.

If you arn't worried about where the leadership of the United States is going, you should be.

I find the substitution of religious beliefs to 'race' to be a valid observation. No religion has the right to impose draconian and reactionary beliefs on the majority of the nation or the rest of the world. Everything else maps perfectly.
