Rightwing extremism always = fascism. The hings to look for are as follows, and every single one Bushies are guilty of.

- Extreme military nationalism and false patriotism
- Stealing elections or otherwise illegally grabbing power
- Asserting absolute power once in office, no checks and balances
- No habeus corpus, spying on their own people, punishing opponents and critics, ruining their lives.
- Scapegoating of different ethnic groups
- Abuse of religion or other idoltry to justify war, totalitrianism
- Using a false foreign threat to scare the nation into war
- A cabal of party leaders around a corrupt leader
- Attacks on constitutional democracy
- Attacks against the press (Dan Rather, NY Times, etc.)
- Serving major corporate cronies in war/oil biz especially
- Replacing news with rightwing propaganda (Fox, Hannity, Limbaugh)
