Repeated use of the word "Nazi" & "Fascist" setting up Democrats
for blame for the next terrorist attack. The next time something happens, I fear they are just going to start throwing journalists, bloggers, politicians, professors, and the like in jail. "Path to 9/11" is part of this framing as well. I am very, very worried about this branding of Democrats as "terrorist lovers".

Whenever they use the same word over and over again, it's obvious they are trying to sow seeds in the mind of the public. I'm afraid that this latest stunt is about just more than politics or the fall election. I'm afraid it's to set up something that makes the Red Scare look like Romper Room. I'm afraid their goal is for the permanent elimination of liberals from America. They see us as modern day Native Americans that need to be extinguished. I'm tired of being seen as an enemy in my own country that I love so dearly. Tired, and scared for all the good people I'm afraid will be hurt by this construct.

1. This will backfire. They're the ones who are on the way out of power.
The military and law enforcement aren't going to follow BushCo in a pogrom against the majority of Americans.

This is not Nazi Germany. Despite the strong historical, family and philisophical links of the current Administration.

2. As long as Bush can retain an army
That isn't made up of mercenaries.
You can bet your ass the Blackwater soldiers would do ANYTHING against Americans that Bushco wanted them to.

4. You'd better believe the U.S. Army would exterminate them.
They know that.

3. Rush has set up his people for years with this talk.
Odd as if any one acts like them, it is the far right GOP.

6. Rudy breathe.
At least they've updated and stopped saying "commies" --

These comments make these criminals seem... not just corrupt but insane. Bu$CO has gone into complete madness mode. They are the fascists...


ahh, I'm too tired to comment on this CRAZY bullsh*t!

9. I think the only reason they are using those terms is......
because they have been tagged with it themselves and it was beginning to stick. They want to steal the usage to deflect the criticism. If they can make those terms their own then they are able to manipulate the meaning.

10. Yes, it is psychological warfare.
And they fight very dirty and very well. I find it shocking how people react if I call BushCo fascists (with indisputable facts), yet they have no problem calling *Liberals* terrorists or terrorist-lovers.

Fear works. Of course they have managed to get most Americans to fear the wrong things and people. And if You aren't afraid of the Real Enemy and where this country is headed, You're asleep or deluded. People should be very afraid of the rapid decline that is coming. Credit will not carry us through. I just looked at some pictures of the Mississippi coastline and *Third World* is all I could say. The 1%ers are prepared - they are gated, cushioned, protected and ready to leave at a moment's notice. The rest of us should get used to fending for ourselves.

11. In 1931, you could assume the same thing would happen.
But, we managed to save ourselves. We were lucky to have FDR, but it was those around him and the whole country that kept it together, more or less. We will prevail again.
