  1. And the Chimp in Chief will not know anything about this until his lap dog Carny reads about it in the news and tells him.Actually,I think Benito would be totaly disgusted with this bunch of amateurs.Surely they can get better for food stamps and free phones.

  2. with his massive control of everything important in the USA I am beginning to think only a massive violent uprising will remove Oblama from office now!

  3. Thanks Lance, for breaking the mold and calling neo “progressives” what they really are – administrative fascists.
    That said, this fascistic trend in Fed administrative agencies has been going on for decades and although it is worst in Dem Administrations (because they abuse the sweeping powers given these agencies), they are just using the expanding big government the GOP has enabled for political pogroms – enough guilt to go around to all parties. Let’ remember the BATF of Waco infamy is an arm of the IRS and the legal justification the Dividians were raided was a matter of tax evasion on firearms they repaired and sold legally.
    It is also interesting to note all the Federal agencies you are citing as being used as political tools to oppress dissent/opposition, have also been armed to the teeth and are the recipients of the recent Fed ammo purchases – we see now the IRS are training with belt-fed, select fire automatic weapons –

  4. So many cockroaches in this administration being uncovered that Obama doesn’t have a rock big enough for all of them to slither under.

    George Zimmerman’s lawyer sitting in court with a laptop, pulling up potential disruptive progressive thug jurors profiles from a Change.org, Facebook, or Huffy Post site is hilarious.
    Obama, if you are reading this, Up Yours!

  5. Occam;
    Why fascist? Whatever the dif they look like Communist to me. It appears the need for more food stamps outweighs the country’s ability to pay.

  6. You didn’t finish.
    DHS & TSA being more aggressive in targeting conservatives. Ask Dana Loesch how many times she’s been basically sexually assaulted by TSA agents at airports.
    Media blaming tea party for every random act of violence suddenly looks a lot more in context now that we know about all this other stuff.
    At this point, it is probably easier to list the government departments that are NOT unfairly abusing conservatives.

    Yup.That would be Zero.

  8. Classic Libtard/Progressive behaviour, one law for thee, but none apply to me.
    Look to the continual contempt for property rights and individual freedoms, the law is bad if it conflicts with progressives goals. (Usually unspoken and even denied goals)
    Classic watermelon behaviour use the letter of the law to break the spirit and intent, then write more laws to make more honest citizens criminals, then lament the loss of social participation , impose a new NGO to replace the volunteers pushed aside…
    But it is “conspiracy theory” to point out that this subversive behaviour is either stupid or evil. Inexcusable in any sane company, but normal for Presstitutes, Progressives and Marxists.

  9. CT:
    Fascist in that they are obtaining control of the means of production through regulation of business, rather than Communist in that they obtain control of the means of production through direct ownership thereof.
    Basically the same end goal (state control of the means of production), but fascists tend to leave “ownership”, but not control, with the private sector.

  10. There is virtually no difference between communists and fascists. The main difference is simply that communists want the State to own property while fascists allow the illusion of private ownership to exist but the regulate it to such a degree that the property really operates at the pleasure of the State. The modern day NDP is the closest to the fascist model……as is Obama.
    Just a bit of reading for you….
    Hitler was named “Man of the Year” in 1938 by Time Magazine. They noted Hitler’s anti-capitalistic economic policies:
    “Most cruel joke of all, however, has been played by Hitler & Co. on those German capitalists and small businessmen who once backed National Socialism as a means of saving Germany’s bourgeois economic structure from radicalism. The Nazi credo that the individual belongs to the state also applies to business. Some businesses have been confiscated outright, on other what amounts to a capital tax has been levied. Profits have been strictly controlled. Some idea of the increasing Governmental control and interference in business could be deduced from the fact that 80% of all building and 50% of all industrial orders in Germany originated last year with the Government. Hard-pressed for food- stuffs as well as funds, the Nazi regime has taken over large estates and in many instances collectivized agriculture, a procedure fundamentally similar to Russian Communism.”

  11. CT you are correct that repression of political dissent and opposition of political opposition is a machination of statist communism – there are many similarities between statist fascism and statist (soviet) communism – they differ only in how they centrally control the economy – they are both administrative despotisms with an omnipotent supreme political leader. The US federal system is beginning to mimic both in many ways
    However the militarization of police and state agencies and the concept of all citizens needing to be surveilled ( by a large covert/spy /security force) constantly because no one can be trusted, that there is anti-administration espionage everywhere that must be repressed by police/military/administrative force is classic fascist morbid paranoia. The last 3 administrations have melded domestic police into an auxiliary Federal paramilitary force with military weapons and tactics and a mindset that they are a controlling/occupying force is a fascist act.
    Waco was an act of state fascism as was Ruby ridge and the raids on various patriot 2nd amendment groups. The arbitrary unconstitutional imposition of the police state in post bombing Boston was a fascist act. Re codifying the function of FEMA as a form of post democracy provisional government is a fascist act. Leaving Americans to be slaughtered by foreign belligerents in Benghazi because if they lived they would be a political embarrassment was a fascist act of state. Covert ATF gun running to Mexican drug cartels then blaming the deaths of Americans in the resultant war on the 2nd amendment was the act of a fascist state (classic false flag espionage). Buying millions of rounds of ammo for domestic security agencies and imposing federal (papers please) pat downs and searches at airports, road blocks and other public events is the act of both fascist statism and communist statism – as is using government agencies to harass political opposition.
    But the real telling fascist act was the unilateral bail out of elite (federal/partisan connected) insider private banks and corporate interests with public funds, then printing tons of fait money to pay for military commitment – fascist economics at its purest. Those who associate themselves with this fascist economic and social regime deem themselves “progressive” and although some may be, they are so morbidly partisan that when a so called “progressive” administration acts like fascist regime they are blind to it or in denial.

  12. When a particular political viewpoint — that which supports an all-powerful state — becomes sufficiently embedded throughout the government bureaucracies, all the various departments are of a piece.
    One of Glenn Reyolds’ readers wrote:
    “Are people yet making the connection between the data that the IRS was trying to compile on Tea Party groups and the NSA program structure? We have heard how the questionaires being sent to the 501(c)4 groups were asking for social networking contacts, donor lists, websites, etc….. I think this needs to be pointed out repeatedly, the NSA programs and the IRS data collection are intrinsically tied together and this needs to be shouted from the rooftops.”
    The question at this point is whether the low-information voters who comprise the majority of Obama voters would be even slightly concerned if they realized the extent of the fascistic goals of this administration – Obama in particular — or whether they would say “whoo-hoo!”
    If it’s the latter, then all bets are off, and there’s going to be a serious head-to-head conflict between the real Americans (in historic terms) and these usurpers and their supporters.

  13. Joey and JeffDG, I would agree with the difference as you describe it. Illusion of ownership is correct. The Krupps, Farben, Siemens, et al still owned their enterprises, but were told what to produce, how to produce, and to use forced or coerced labour. The consequences of not toeing the line were not good.
    Occam, “However the militarization of police and state agencies and the concept of all citizens needing to be surveilled ( by a large covert/spy /security force) constantly because no one can be trusted, that there is anti-administration espionage everywhere that must be repressed by police/military/administrative force is classic fascist morbid paranoia.” I would suggest that this also holds true for Communist regimes. At least that certainly held true for the Bolshevik coup in Russia.

  14. Hey in Edmonton. You can now get a police app. That takes a picture of a car whose meter has expired than send it to them. You get a piece of the fine pie.
    Vigilantism for thee , but not for me .
    Using the populace for spying now.
    As for the USA, its marinating in its own PC stew. No matter what the obama does is fine. After all he said he would not close all Businesses.
    Fascism has been impelled by the Multicultural, racist left since before the 21st century. This is the harvest .

  15. Ken – the Russian people can count themselves lucky the Bolsheviks didn’t have the technology available to them which the NSA and CIA do now.
    And the German people can thank fate the Nazis didn’t have the snooping and tracking technology the NSA has – otherwise the whole population would be chipped and tracked, rounded up when political sins were committed to join the political prisoners in the camp networks – of course connectd party members would have immunity from this.
    The primary weapon the Bolseviks and Nazis had was fear and intimidation – and a reward system for a wide network of snitches and quislings – kind of like the DHS “see something say something” pogrom
