Fascism is the word which best describes where we are headed under bush. A fascist dictatorship. There is no denying it. I agree with you about the libertarians. Their philosophy is more in line with mine than either the democrats or republicans. If somehow they got their following up to 15 or 20% I would probably register as one.

Conrad from SD has (ranking member of budget committee) has been giving a great talk on c-span2 before the senate for the past 45 minutes or so.

He just finished. edit...it is a debate on extension of juniors tax cut giveaways for the rich
