The American Heritage Dictionary defines fascism as “A system of government marked by centralization of authority under a dictator, stringent socioeconomic controls, suppression of the opposition through terror and censorship, and typically a policy of belligerent nationalism and racism.” Under Obama and the Democrats, we’re headed for fascism with a bullet.

It’s ironic that Democrats constantly refer to Republicans with the “F” word, but there’s one party who fits the above description to a tee: Democrats. 

With the Democrats’ trillion dollar stimulus bill, bailouts, ownership of banks and insurance companies, we’re seeing an unprecedented centralization of authority with the Federal Government and stringent socioeconomic controls. All of this shoved down the throats of Americans through the suppression of the opposition by shutting Republicans out of the process. Dictator Obama to Republicans: we won and we’re doing it my way. Obama has been terrorizing the public with threats of doom and gloom should we not let Nancy Pelosi replace our free capitalist economy with European socialism. The audacity of hope has turned into the politics of fear in record time.

Censorship is a favorite and frequently wielded tool of the left. Conservative speakers can no longer speak in public, especially at college campuses, without leftist loons shouting them down, rushing the podiums, throwing food (or shoes), or otherwise disrupting and interrupting their presentations.  

Democrats also have a plan to censor talk radio, which is predominately conservative, with the “Fairness” Doctrine. The Fairness Doctrine would require every radio station to present both points of view. Sounds good, doesn’t it? Except the Fairness Doctrine doesn’t apply to traditionally liberal news outlets, like network news, newspapers, or new media like the Internet. It’s a blatant attempt to censor conservative talk show hosts like Rush Limbaugh, Laura Ingram and Sean Hannity, among others. 

Liberal news agencies have censored their reporters from using the word “terrorist” and substitute “freedom fighters” or as Helen Thomas likes to call them, “so-called terrorists,” to describe these murderers of innocent men, women and children.

Democrats have historically called anyone they disagree with “racists”, but this past campaign season has been unprecedented. Anyone who dares question the left’s immigration amnesty programs and believes we have an obligation to secure our borders is labeled a racist. Anyone who dares question comrade Obama’s programs or policies is labeled a racist. Democrats put every American in a victim group and dole out money, services, programs and other bribes to cynically pit one American against the other. Apparently, no one can have an opinion that marriage should be between a man and a woman, as it has been throughout the entirety of human history, without being labeled a homophobe or a suppressor of civil rights. Baloney.

The left in this country has adopted the tactics of fascist regimes past. Consider the following:

American children are increasingly being indoctrinated into the far left ideology and encouraged to betray their parents to the politically correct gestapo: Al Gore recently spoke to 3,000 12 year olds and was recorded telling them that they knew better than their parents and they should not listen to them. Democrats have passed laws taking away parental authority including banning required parental notification of abortions. Parents who spank their children can be brought up on charges. Public schools indoctrinate children on the most liberal of agendas and prohibit any mention of religion or denial of the religion of global warming. We live in a culture that markets sex and the anti-social behaviors of gangsta rappers to 12 year olds, without any outrage in the salons of NBC news or the New York Times and other liberal media outlets.

Elections are no longer an objective tool of governance, unless of course the Democrats win. The people of this country have overwhelmingly voted to protect marriage as between a man and a woman: even in the most liberal states in the country, Massachusetts, Washington, Oregon and California. So, Democrats go to the liberally stacked courts and have unethical judges overturn the will of the people and impose their will on their “unenlightened” subjects. Minority rules, majority go take a hike. Election losses are only temporary until Democrats can stack the ballot boxes, find “lost” or uncounted ballots, double count, come up with more ballots than voters, file legal challenges and otherwise overturn the will of the people through lying, cheating and stealing.

Civil rights are routinely taken away by these same fascists. Second Amendment rights? Not in public. First Amendment rights? Don’t say anything politically incorrect or it will be labeled hate speech. Property rights? Yeah, unless the Government decides to use eminent domain to give your property to a shopping mall developer whose made the correct campaign contributions. Nice.

I will say, there’s one part of the above definition that doesn’t apply to Democrats: nationalism. The definition of nationalism is:

1.) Devotion to the interests or culture of one's nation.

2.) The belief that nations will benefit from acting independently rather than collectively, emphasizing national rather than international goals.

3.) Aspirations for national independence in a country under foreign domination.

Until recently, these were admirable beliefs. Now, we defer to the French and UN for moral authority even though key UN committees like the Security committee are populated with the worst dictatorial regimes on the planet; we open our borders to unrestricted and uncontrolled immigration which costs California alone over $8 billion a year, not in the interest of our country but in the interest of Democrat votes; and the majority of Democrats think the US is a bad influence on the world.
