Actually, beck is wrong. Zero is a fascist, not a marxist.

Unfortunately, the truth is much more boring than that: he's just a run-of-the mill modern European-style social democrat.

He wants a big, redistributive welfare state funded by high and progressive taxes, together with powerful labor unions. I've seen no evidence that he wants to foment a violent proletarian revolution to sieze the means of production, as a Marxist would. Neither have I seen any evidence that he wants to restrict all economic activity to state-approved industrial cartels and labor syndicates, as a facist would.

Of course, I'm willing to be corrected if someone shows me some evidence.

GM, Chrysler, and GE all all examples of Fascism, as is ACORN, the SEIU, the UAW, and, oddly enough, the Indiana Teacher’s Union Retirement Fund - the senior chrysler bondholder Obama gave a haircut to give the money to FIAT and the UAW.

All illegal, all examples of the regime picking winners and losers, outside the law, but according to the whim of the ruler.

That IS fascism. It is the definition of the thing.

“Of course, I’m willing to be corrected if someone shows me some evidence.”

Oh stop that. I sent you two links, documenting Obama’s hardcore, revolutionary marxism in his own words, and you didn’t read either one.
