Barbara4 I liked that analogy. Is bush going on vacation again? I thought he just had a vacation with mommy and daddy and Putin, Man does he ever work at all? I forgot Cheney is really the president that is why he is holding all those documents and papers. hoping we will not find it out.

Absolutely and there is no doubt that the road Bush and Cheney are leading us down IS the road to fascism. Too many people in this country have become to arrogant in thinking that it can't happen here, well it most certainly can and under the current administration is most certainly is. Once upon a time even bringing up the word Nazi was considered to be hyperbole and over the top. However more and more people are beginning to recognize what even Bush and Cheney might not themselves really see, that we are starting to mirror that sick system in far too many ways. This time I hope we're smart enough to stop it now, instead of having to try when it's too late.

There's a reason these passports are being delayed and it has less to do with the ineptitude of the US government than with making sure we stay in the country.

And MCVet seems to be obsessed with calling people "Nazis." I don't know what war MCVet fought in, but it wasn't WWII, because he knows nothing about Nazis. Message to MCVet: Thank you for your service to our country. Please stop accusing your fellow Americans of being Nazis.

If you haven't noticed, he is pointing out behaviour that has resurfaced on this planet after 60 some years.

He is not the only one to have noticed it and placed the Nazi name on it.

Nazism and Fascism are very similiar.

Fascism is an authoritarian political ideology (generally tied to a mass movement) that considers individual and other societal interests subordinate to the needs of the state, and seeks to forge a type of national unity, usually based on, but not limited to, ethnic, cultural, or racial attributes. Various scholars attribute different characteristics to fascism, but the following elements are usually seen as its integral parts: nationalism, authoritarianism, statism, militarism, corporatism, populism, totalitarianism, anti-communism, racism and opposition to economic and political liberalism. However, contrary to popular belief, racism is not a requirement of Fascism

Face it and there are no bones about this fact: The neocons are turning passports into a national identification system.

Don't think Big Brother is not watching.

Government is generally inefficient and incompetent, and this is yet another example. Why would anyone trust the government to do anything right?

I don't know exactly where you live, but I am a DEMOCRAT who lives in the SOUTH, and I am getting tired of your slurs against those of us who live down here. The war was over more than 100 years ago. GET OVER IT!

Maybe they are from Able Danger and only hit the specially reinforced parts.

S_Temper (a SOUTHERN REDNECK) blurted:

hardcore Bush-haters who troll threads and take any opportunity to attack the US government.

Ann you, a hardcore hypocrit that takes every opportunity to defend cronyism as though it's a VIRTUE? You southerner's and America hater's make it very clear to the rest of US that the Neanderthal is not extinct afterall.........

jn122736 Don't know where you stand on eating at a table you haven't contributed squat to, but I resent it. Can't vote in our elections? Then don't throw rocks at our low-lifes. Stick with your own low-lifes working you over in your own government...there's a thought. And I'm sure every citizen of every country feels the same way about outsiders weighing in on matters they know little about, or are invested in personally.

But we can all pretty much agree Bush is not the man he pretended to be 7 years ago. Blame it on mental illness, or whatever makes it feel right, he's not working for the American people any more now than he intended to do 7 years ago. He's a fraud. I know...I stay in touch with my congressmen and it's getting harder and harder for them to defend his idiotic actions. (Elections coming up have a whole lot to do with that).

But the basic rule of thumb when dealing with smelly, don't-have-any-other-skills, and think-I'm-bad-because-I'm-not-saying-this-to-your-face trolls...don't respond. Ever. They feed off that. Only another troll will ever respond to a troll once they've been identified.
