Message: Entry: Bill Donohue Is Right About the Huckster Link: http://www.takimag.com/blogs/article/bill_donohue_is_right_about_the_huckster#12202 Post contents: Regarding Paul's quotation of Sinclair Lewis, I would argue that the fascism "wrapped in a flag" half of it has already occurred in America. To tick off just a few examples from the current Bush administration: Guantanamo, the Patriot Act, military tribunals, suspension of Habeas Corpus, wire tapping American citizens, renditions, the whole concept of "preemptive war"; the invasion of Iraq; threats to nuke Iran. As for the "wrapped in a cross" part of it, I would not say that has happened yet, but, of all the candidates, Huckabee is the most likely to bring us down the road to theocracy. Huckabee will give us big government with an evangelical Christian flavor. Maybe this is will better than big government from Hillary, Barak, or Rudy. Then again, maybe it won't be.
