Rush: 'Fascism is Exactly what we are getting under Obama'
Patriot Room ^ | 8-25-09 | Scott Martin

Posted on 08/25/2009 3:28:00 PM PDT by Scott Martin

Good video of Glenn Beck making the same call a couple months ago, for those who may have missed it, at the link...

We heard the F-Bomb thrown around early and often in regard to former President George W. Bush. It's refreshing to see someone use the word accurately, with full understanding of the meaning of the word. Enter Rush Limbaugh on his broadcast today.

RUSH: So back in April, Obama said, "No, no, no, no. I'm not going to do that. I want to go forward," because he knows the American people do not want to investigate the Bush administration. He knows the American people don't want to weaken our intelligence gathering ability and our foreign policy.

And this business of "undermining the Constitution," I might remind you that Obama has kept the warrantless spy program, and he has expanded it. And I might remind you there's nothing in the Constitution that says the president can fire a CEO. There's nothing in the Constitution that says the president can turn this into a fascist economy, which he is in the process of doing. It is not socialist. Socialist is where the government owns the means of production and distribution. Fascism is where the private sector still owns what it owns but politicians run it. The state runs these businesses, but they don't own 'em. Now, I know he owns some. He owns a couple struggling car companies. He owns some banks and some other things. But fascism is exactly what we're getting under Barack Obama."

As I said, it's good to see the word used accurately. But it's beyond depressing that the word can be accurately used in reference to the administration of an American President.

Of course it is and if you look at past comments of Obama associates and czars, you’ll see that their final solutions to us “problems” are the same as the nazis.

If Zero had character, he would not bring up race. Thankfully, he is ending America’s fear of being called racist. His skin color no longer grants him immunity because people see him using racism as a crutch while he screws up the whole country.

Look at the hubris, the jutting jaw, the shear arrogance. Is there any doubt - Obama is the Chocolate Mossolini?

Actually it is not fascism; it is a hybrid form of government that mixes certain aspects of fascism, socialism, communism, and capitalism. At the end, we still get screwed; if we let them.

True, true, but it most closely resembles fascism, in my opinion. Definitely some socialism thrown in, and an awful lot of authoritarian instinct.

Dear Reader,

The video you are about to view has
reached several million people and
created a fair amount of controversy.

Dr. Manning continues his tirade against
the “Mack Daddy” in the Oval Office.

Manning has an apocalyptic style that
invokes a smidgen of humor.

Enjoy the show.

And if needed, we Americans will deal with this group of tyrants the same way we did with the Nazis.

I don’t think it hurts to remind them every now and then that we will play nice until it’s time to, not play nice.

Either way they will lose.

I just watched the original miniseries “V” for the first time in 25 years. The writer/director mentioned in his commentary that his original plan didn’t have aliens—that the U.S. evolved into a fascist state.

The commentary was excellent. Parallels between the “acceptance” of the visitors and the rise of Nazism were spot on. It’s worth a Netflix or Blockbuster Online rental.

We have them vastly outnumbered and I doubt they will have time to bring in enough like minded outsiders to carry out any genocide.

They don’t have to get anywhere near the point of genocide. Just take away enough freedom and they will get stomped.

Heck the health care issue alone just might do it if it’s forced down our throats. Or maybe if Acorn and Obama rig the next elections which I’m convinced they are going to try to do.

from the first time I saw a pic of Obama, I thought of Mussolini

I wish more people would use the Mussolini analogy. He was a vicious megalomaniac and coward; and, finally, a clown. Hitler was pure evil.
