Hitler was elected at first.

And the masses *WILL* vote themselves bread and circuses until all the money (including all that can possibly be borrowed) is gone.

That is why this is, or should be, a Republic

In before the ping!

a Fascist Democracy, in which a people's freedom is not taken away from them by dictatorial force, but is voluntarily surrendered.

After freedom is surrendered, there is not democracy. There is no such thing as Fascist Democracy.

BTTT!

[HEY4QDEMS]

She's definitely running that's for sure.

Having come out publicly to embrace religion, calling for secure borders, supporting the war, hell if for some unknown reason I decided to believe her, I'd vote for her.

Definitions of Fascism on the Web:

* "A philosophy or system of government that is marked by stringent social and economic control, a strong, centralized government usually headed by a dictator, and often a policy of belligerent nationalism." (From The American Heritage Dictionary)


* The name comes from the Latin fasces – a bundle of rods with a projecting axe, which was the symbol of authority in ancient Rome. The term was applied by Mussolini to his movement after his rise to power in 1922. The Fascists were viciously anti-Communist and anti- liberal and, once in power, relied on an authoritarian state apparatus. They also used emotive slogans and old prejudices (for example, against the Jews) to bolster the leader's strongman appeal. ...


* A social and political ideology with the primary guiding principle that the state or nation is the highest priority, rather than personal or individual freedoms.

America is succumbing to a soft fascism.

The democratic republic is already but an illusion.

 

 

 

If the clinton debacle teaches us anything, it is this: If we are to retain our democracy in this age of the electronic demagogue, we must recalibrate the constitutional balance of power.

Mia T,  THE OTHER NIXON 

 

The Common Man

by Mia T, February 1998

 

Balance is anathema to bill clinton.

bill clinton thrives on instability.

He gets off living on the edge.

Disequilibrium undergirds his every scheme:

An electorate distracted,

a balance of power fractured.

 

Filegate and The clinton Putsch,

committed in tandem,

the product of a careful criminal calculus,

at once empowered clinton

and disemboweled his opponents.

clinton was now free to betray with abandon

not only our trust,

but the Constitution as well.

 

As if threats of extortion and injustice were not enough,

clinton also embarked on a campaign to quash dissent

-- "partisan, mean-spirited!" he said --

demonstrating once again his distaste for democracy

and his predilection for criminal overkill.

 

It's easy to see

how the common man in the 1990s

could imbibe such notions.

And the Zeitgeist emboldened the Philanderer-King.

 

Distrusting

the common man's essential wisdom,

the founding fathers appropriately distanced him

from the decision-making process.

 

But the founding fathers did not anticipate

electronic media or demographic science

which transmuted our democratic republic

into an illusory direct democracy,

into a de facto -- if indirect -- dictatorship.

 

By conservative estimate,

there is now enough fiberoptic cable

for the MTV tyrant to hang us all

(and to make it look like suicide).

 

 

 

It is natural for man to indulge in the illusions of hope.

We are apt to shut our eyes against a painful truth,

and listen to the song of that siren

till she transforms us into beasts.

Is this the part of wise men,

engaged in a great and arduous struggle for liberty?

Are we disposed to be the number of those

who, having eyes, see not,

and having ears, hear not,

the things which so nearly concern their temporal salvation?

For my part, whatever anguish of spirit it may cost,

I am willing to know the whole truth;

to know the worst, and to provide for it.

Patrick Henry

If Hillary were President, she would be the first B.I.C. (*itch in Chief)

Ideologically, Hillary Clinton is a paradox in all the worst ways. She is both to the left of Elena Ceaucescu and to the right of Imelda Marcos. It's important that her reelection margin be held below 60% next year.

[SAJ]

Sigh. Hitler was never elected.

Have posted the history of his rise to Kanzler several times, will do so again if need be.

[Mia T]

It's important that her reelection margin be held below 60% next year.

Tell that to the myopic NY conservatives.
