Fascism And The GOP (Part One).
I was perusing the internet today (something I haven't had time to do in a long while) and I stumbled upon this handy little guide that defined Fascism in fourteen simple characteristics. So instead of writing something about killing tools (guns) or general ignorance, I decided to draw up a comparison of what a Fascist state is like and what the modern Republican party is like.
Now before I go on, I want to get one thing clear: this is a liberal comedy/information blog written by an independent. So while I could compare this same list to the Democrats (who do line up with a few of the numbers, but not the majority of them like the GOP does), I won't. Do that yourself, you lazy fuck.
Another note: I am fully aware that this has probably been done before as the internet is a very large place. Hell, I found one that compared the fourteen points to President Obama, albeit in a not-very-serious manner.
Here's the quick foreword from the website I got these from: "Dr. Lawrence Britt has examined the fascist regimes of Hitler (Germany), Mussolini (Italy), Franco (Spain), Suharto (Indonesia) and several Latin American regimes. Britt found 14 defining characteristics common to each."

Birthers: Natural Born Dumbasses.
It's really no surprise to me that the Birther movement is alive and well in the state of Arizona. This is the same state, remember, that passes illegal and racist laws on a regular basis and, most surprisingly, has a law on the books stating that there are to be no more than two dildos per household. You read that right. Arizona lawmakers actually refer to their residents as "dildos."
...Anyway, the state has a lot of "Birthers" - people that don't believe that our incumbent president is a natural-born American citizen. The other definition, of course, being:
A natural-born citizen who, by coincidence, happens to be a natural-born racist, natural-born moron, and a natural-born asshole.
