Bush: A Fascist in his own words!

Warmonger Bush gives fascist speech to troops

I read the text of the this speech firstly with amusement and scorn but then with growing concern followed by shock then revulsion and finally REAL fear and terror. I cannot empahise how disturbed and sick I feel now.
This man is not just an idiot - He is evil incarnate and brimming with the most poisonous self-righteousness imaginable.
He is not pretending - he actually believes what he is saying. Anybody who is concerned about the future of the world must read this monstrous speech - It is even worse than the infamous "Axis of Evil" State of the Union address of 2002.
It does not auger well for Palestine or Iran or Syria or the human rights in the Middle East.
I have encluded the entire text. Read it closely and with awe at how far gone this guy and his country really are.

Bulk of text removed by editor. This speech is widely available on the internet. I have added the link

THE PRESIDENT: "Thank you all very much. Thank you all for coming, please be seated. Thanks for the warm welcome. I'm glad to be back in Pennsylvania and I'm proud to be the first sitting President to visit Monroe County..."

"Like the ideology of communism, Islamic radicalism is elitist, led by a self-appointed vanguard that presumes to speak for the Muslim masses. Bin Laden says his own role is to tell Muslims, "what is good for them and what is not." And what this man who grew up in wealth and privilege considers good for poor Muslims is that they become killers and suicide bombers. He assures them that this road -- that this is the road to paradise -- though he never offers to go along for the ride."

Exactly what did he say that makes him a "fascist"?

"Like the ideology of Islamic radicalism, capitalism is elitist, led by a self-appointed vanguard that presumes to speak for the American and European masses. Bush says his own role is to tell Westerners, "You are either with us or against us." And what this man who grew up in wealth and privilege considers good for poor Americans is that they become killers and bombers. He assures them that this road -- that this is the road to "freedom" -- though he never offers to go along for the ride."

If I were to just see that quote, I would have thought he was an anarchist. He's using the language of radicals to describe things. A self appointed leaders and vanguards? Elitist? Of course this is true, but what he fails to mention is that this describes himself exactly as well.

What makes him a "fascist"?

The whole war on terror is merely a fascist plot by the neo-con administration to take over the world's oil supply- the Muslim religion is a peaceful religion - it is not a religion that makes war unlike the Christian one.
The World Trade Centre "attack" was a "black op" just like the Kennedy assassination
