Actually, depending on how far left this guy is, he might say, "Yep, FDR was a fascist, too!"

Yes, but if he admitted that, THEN we'd have 'im.
Somehow I doubt it. My point in choosing FDR as my example was because he was the president who fought Fascism, and I have a feeling this noodlebrain consciously crafted this to appeal to his democrat pals.

The problem is that the 'left-right' philosophy is that it is always relative to the situation. In the 1920-1940s Germany, the fascist movement was right compared to the extreme left wing communist movements of the time. In the big picture of political ideology, however, fascism is left wing. The basic flow from left to right on modern ideology is: Communism-Totaliarian/Fascism-Socialism-Democrat Liberalism-Centrist-Conservative Republican-Libertarian-Anarchist
