On Fascism

Let's face it. The word 'Fascism' has become a buzz word widely accepted as terminology representing the view that a new Hitler/Dictator is on the way. Fascism is everyone's enemy and both sides use it against the other. Ironically, though, Fascism is the the enemy of both conservatism and liberalism as 'one party rules all' is the very definition of the term.

Most telling to me: It seems the conservatives these days are those who seem to insist on a one party system. It is they screaming 'sour grapes', 'wanting their country back' and telling the rest of us that you're only a 'great American' if you are one of them.

The point is moot. We will never have a one party system. We will never have a dictator. What we will have are a lot of screaming hypocrites coming at us from both sides.

On Libs vs. 'Cons

I'm tired of loosely flung terminology like, 'Anti-American, or Great-American'. These terms seem to fling from the right by my estimation and it smells like simple sour grapes.

Neither side should be questioning the other's patriotism. It parallels McCarthyism. Hannity and Limbaugh are VERY guilty of the practice.

They are not capable of holding office anywhere. Please don't lend credence to their day-in and day-out drivel.

They've turned American governance into a reality show.

It just ain't right. "
