Facism and the GOP

http://www.addictinginfo.org/2012/05/15/republican-party-fascist/

i started to read this essay thinking that it would be mostly BS.  i mean, facism, today?  i was sure the analogy would be a reach.  then i kept reading, and kept nodding, and it never got far fetched. 

my question, is he right, or is this confirmation bias?

Ruth, once again you astound and impress me.  Who was the actor?  He was great.  Pulled it off without a hitch.  And the content!  "Orwellian" is the only word for it. 

Great writing.  I listened to it twice.
