Dear George-

I think we are hitting about 14 out of 14 at this point in America.

Where is the outrage? Where is the call for impeachment? Is anyone AWAKE here in America??? Growing up in middle America I always believed "they" would take care of me. "They" would always protect all of us from "them". We would always be free. If stuff happened, we would march, we would protest, we would raise hell, we would vote out the scoundrels. We would demand presidents resign. We would impeach them by God.

I'm pretty damn scared now. Every day now we see more death, more lies, more spin, more cowarding of our so called "free press". And our elected officials just stand around.

Yikes!

Facism:

1. Powerful and continuing expressions of nationalism.
2. Disdain for the importance of human rights.
3. Identification of enemies/scapegoats as a unifying cause.
4. The supremacy of the military/avid militarism.
5. Rampant sexism.
8. Religion and ruling elite tied together.
9. Power of corporations protected.
10. Power of labor suppressed or eliminated.
11. Disdain and suppression of intellectuals and the arts.
12. Obsession with crime and punishment.
13. Rampant cronyism and corruption.
14. Fraudulent elections.
