Fascism on the Rise in the U.S. --People Should Be Paying Attention To This

Last night, I learned about this National Security and Homeland Security Presidential Directive, that was approved by Congress under which the president, at his own judgement and bidding, can assume all of the powers of the government under presidential authority without any advise or consent from either of the other two branches of government. This means that if and when he decides, George Bush can declare a state of National Emergency and assume total power. This is what Hitler did in 1933 when he implemented a national boycott of Jewish businesses and services, and later rounded them up to send them off to death camps. I think people need to start paying attention to what their elected officials are doing and start holding their feet to the fire til they burn and get some common sense. Else, you will find yourself living in an autocratic, right-wing dictatorship.
