Stop comparing Bush to Hitler

He's more of a Bonapartist-populist dictatorship. He seeks to protect the common people from elitist complication of life's predetermined purpose. The people should be made to rally behind a strong leader who brings them glory through military victory. Those who question the purpose of his actions are unacceptable. Whether or not they are patriots who are acting in what they believe to be the nation's best interest is irrelevant. Authoritarian government is necessary, and some form of "victory" is nessessary to give the common people release and allow them to accept their place. Critical thought is allowed only if it is used to justify the leader's actions. Those who expect Republican rule to lead to a big crash are mistaken. You should be looking for the sort of slow decay that could be found in Franco's Spain or Peron's Argentina. These signs are so abundant that one hardly needs to look for them, you can start by examining the inner "city" decay right here in Lincoln.
