The Fascists in Italy took control of the country in 1922. The German people handed control of their country to the fascist National Socialist {Nazi} Party in 1933. The five Republican members of the U.S. Supreme Court declared the United States to be a fascist country by their Citizens United vs. F.E.C. decision in January 2010.
But the American people prevented further encroachment by the fascists and their wholly-owned subsidiary, the Republican Party, just yesterday. Karl Rove and Sheldon Adelman and Grover Norquist and the other agents of the fascist Oligarchy could not buy enough airtime nor tell enough bald-faced lies to overcome the Will of The People.
Barack Obama appears to have 300 electoral votes, to Willard Mitt Romney's 200 electoral votes. While I predicted here that Obama would win by a 60-40 landslide in the popular vote, the 60-40 win in the Electoral College is just fine with me. (The early score on the popular vote is a squeaker 50.3 to 48.1.)
So with President Obama in the White House for Four More Years, perhaps nothing much has changed. The House is Republican, and House Speaker Boehner will prevent as much progress as possible. The Senate is still Democratic – but Harry Reid is a chicken, and the Republicans just threaten to filibuster and progress is prevented.
So the forward-looking among us have already figured where to work to erase the Republican stranglehold on solutions for America – every single Congress district is up for re-election in 2014, along with another one-third of the Senate.
The Revolution is never over; the Class War is perpetual.
