Has the administration of George W. Bush taken our nation into fascism?

What do you think?

1. It's a hybrid

Of Mussolini style corporatism, Hitlerish militarism, and Stalinist oppression.

[bobthedrummer]

5. I tend to agree with all that, it's a new form of fascism imho

[donheld]

2. No doubt in my mind

It's Fascism.

that they have consolidated power...but now it seems it is slipping away..

[Talismom]

4. Nothing new about it! Old fashioned Fascism with new fangled spying

technologies. It's here right now. See ya all in the concentration camps!

[Richard Steele]

People on the bottom become the toilet!

6. It's going to get alot worse:

With a weak divided opposition total control of every branch of Gov't , the Corps. and the Media what's left but to formalize the New Governing order? Give George a crown and the rich titles and get on with it. The Empire has arrived.

7. It's outrageous!

8. If this government isn't a fascist one, it's pretty close to being one

The past five years to have been a nightmare, with all stuff like the Patriot Act, the domestic spying, the torture, the War, and so forth, I sometimes wish it isn't really real. And it is just a really horrible nightmare that I will wake up from, and find out that Gore was the winner of the 2000 election. That Bush v. Gore never happened, nor did 9/11. But than I come to my senses, and realize, that life as is nowadays, a living nightmare. That Democracy as I knew is on life support, and now I live in a world that all three branches of the government are controlled by right wingers/conservatives, and half of the nation is full of sheep who follow blindly, because they have been drinking the Kool-aid that is provided to them through the media.

9. I'd love to know what they've been doing that we don't know about yet.

What we do know is bad enough; I can only imagine what we don't know.

11. That poll's more lopsided than Kerry in Ohio

and Diebold dint have nothin' to do with it!

[bobthedrummer]

13. 90% of the respondents also think this is a fascist administration

that's interesting today, some DUer's have always held that the George W. Bush administration has always been extreme to the point of fascism since it was installed by SCOTUS.

14. Real Nazis were secretly given American identities and jobs in US

national security shortly after WWII (do a search on Operation PAPERCLIP).
These Nazis found a US political home in the Republican Party.
