Are you deliberately being obtuse? The unified executive idea, taken in isolation, isn't the whole thing. It isn't the whole "Is the US moving to fascism" issue. Its not the whole "What is/might be wrong with the Bush administration issue (not by a long shot), but it is the whole thing in regards to your statement - "The idea of the unitary executive, for example, is a very fascist concept." The fact is it simply isn't a very fascist concept. Its not even being applied in a fascist way by Bush, but even if it was your statement would still be false. No, I am not. Fascism is a particular breed of totalitarianism. And its one that FDR was a lot closer to than Bush.
