>Fascism is the melding of corporate and gov't interests. When you accuse BP of fascism, by definition, you indirectly accuse Obama.>>

That is nonsene tejek. No one blames TR for the Robber Barrons of the early 20th century. The Rockefellers, Duponts, ets, who threatened to run the country as a fascist state; or FDR for Hoovers fascism.


Obama is working very closely with BP....in fact, there are people complaining Obama is working too closely with BP.....one example among many:

Palin: Obama too close to BP

You're talk of fascism feeds right into their accusations.

And no one blames Obama for Wall street, the oil companies, corporatists or Bush, Cheney's fascism.

Of course there are........there are any number of people who want to blame Obama for everything. And they speak very loudly.

Naomi Klein and Krugman were writing about the neo cons and corporations fomenting a coming fascist storm long before Obama was president. Go look at the date on Krugmans conscience of a liberal and then read or listen to it.

Please do not tell me what I think. That is rude.


I did not tell you what you are thinking; instead, I was pointing out what you are missing.
