 ^^^^^^^

I love it.  It seems that that whenever someone can't adequately
deal with something, they label their foe a "fascist."

MES, can you come up with anything tht links Wiener's arguments
to fascism?

It's not just MES, but a lot of people (mostly liberals) who will
label anything they don't agree with as being fascist.  I guess
anyone who isn't an anarchist could be labeled as a fascist.

Whenever someone calls someone a fascist, I usually get a 
pathetic picture in my mind of some flag waving, greasy
haired guy on a street corner who pesters everyone
who comes by to listen to his problems.  And anyone who
doesn't stop is a fascist.
