I've lost count how many times I've been called a communist. I get it in e-mails and people post it on web message boards. The funny thing is, in all the years I've been a writer, I've not written a single word about communism. In fact, I'd be hard pressed to describe communism to someone, that's how ignorant I am. Apparently disagreeing with the policies of the Bush administration qualifies me as a communist. I'm not sure how, but it does.
Someone once posted to a message board about my "commie" web log, and gave some examples of the links I have to various Democratic causes and web sites. Of course they forgot to mention the links I had to web sites dedicated to helping our troops in Iraq and Afghanistan.
I suppose if we're going to label each other, fascist would be a good label for right-wingers.
