[QUOTE="Werewolf, post: 1289185, member: 239"] They hardly reject individualism and it is only the religious fanatic minority who've coopted the republican party that believe in collective morals. . ROFLMAO - you mean like the DEMS don't? Please. Uhhh... It's the Dems that have turned the US into a welfare state, made half our citizens dependent on the government in one way or another and by default control their daily lives. Totalitarian? A rose by any other name is still a rose and the Dems not the Republicans where it like a badge of honor. It's the dems that have taken control of major manufacturing corporations and have so regulated the financial industry as to control it for all practical purposes. Government control of corporations and financial institutions is a hallmark of traditional fascism and the DEMS are responsible for that not the republicans. Huh? That's so far out there it doesn't even deserve a response and I won't dignify it by even trying. I'll give you that one. That said: When people start tossing around the term fascist I can't help but be reminded of my time in college as an adult student listening to half literate kids using the phrase in every other sentence when they couldn't win an argument based on reality and thus resorted to demonization of their opponent (a typical Dem tactic) by tossing around words that make the average person think of Mussolini and reminds them of the NAZIS. Nice try. FAIL! However, I guess from your liberal POV most of what you wrote is true... From my libertarian/conservative POV it's mostly hogwash. I guess we'll just have to agree to disagree.
