Fascism is on the march. Obama and his Marxists colleagues have big plans to transform America into a socialist "paradise". However, there is one huge obstacle blocking their ambitions, and that is the American people who cherish their freedoms.
What to do? That's an easy one--silence the opposition. And that, ladies and gentlemen, is exactly what they are working to achieve.
Woodrow Wilson faced the same problem, and his solution was to imprison those who spoke out against his regime. Is this something we need to fear will happen again under the fascist Obama regime?

Bloggers Beware – They’re Coming After You!
by Rep. Tom Price (R-GA)
"Just when you thought it was safe to start expressing your right to free speech, Democrats in Congress are gearing up for a vote on a new piece of legislation to blatantly undermine the First Amendment. Known as the DISCLOSE Act (HR 5175), this bill – written by the head of the Democrats’ congressional campaign committee – is their response to the recent Supreme Court ruling in Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission. In short, the Supreme Court found that the government could not restrict the free speech rights of individuals or other entities wishing to participate in the political dialogue.
It is hard to see how establishing a level playing field for free speech – as our Founding Fathers did by making it a right under the Constitution and which the Supreme Court upheld – is a threat to our democracy. Nevertheless, the White House and their allies on Capitol Hill see honest criticism as a threat to forcing their big government, liberal agenda through Congress. So, there is no time like the present – namely five months before an election – to start putting the muzzle on those individuals and organizations not sticking to the Democrats’ talking points.
Under the DISCLOSE Act, certain incorporated entities would be restricted in how they can exercise their free speech rights. There is an exemption for some in the media sphere like newspapers, TV news, and the like. However, there is one driving force in today’s public debate that is NOT exempt. Bloggers will not have the same exemption provided to other media sources. Never mind that the Supreme Court’s opinion in the Citizens United case stated, 'Differential treatment of media corporations and other corporations cannot be squared with the First Amendment.'
For many bloggers to exercise their free speech rights, they would have to jump through the same onerous new hoops as many businesses, nonprofit groups, and even such threats to democracy as your local chamber of commerce. If this sounds like an absurd overreach by one party in power, I invite you to take a look at their government takeover of health care, taxpayer-funded bailouts, and general hostility to private sector economic growth.
The Obama Administration and Congressional Democrats have not racked up a stellar record of transparency and openness. For a White House that touted its willingness to engage critics openly in hopes of staving off greater partisan rancor, Obama’s team has endorsed backroom deal-making, special giveaways to garner support for their agenda, and a closed-door decision-making process that has the American people more fed up with Washington. Now, under their brand of leadership, they stand ready to stifle free speech via legislative fiat.
Democrats should not be allowed to give themselves carte blanche to shut down the ability of those in the blogosphere or elsewhere to participate in our nation’s collective dialogue. That flies in the face of our most sacred rights as American citizens."

What pure unadulterated BS.
The Supreme Court decision was about cmapaign financing. It never addressed anything to do with anything done by bloggers.
This is just another scare tactic being utilized by the rightwingnut camp: "They're coming to get you, bloggers! Stop them NOW!"
And Ms. MooreLies? Could you possibly explain how you can accuse the Obama administration of being fascist AND Marxist (and socialist, for good measure) all in the same sentence? You don't have any idea what those terms mean,do you? Because if you did, you'd know that fascists and socialists are diametrical opposites, right?
Your poor, poor kids... where will they learn the tings they need to know, if they ever hve to venture out into the real world, get a real education, and perform a real function in American society? And think about how youand they are going to feel when they finally discover how you've robbed them of every opportunity to LEARN stuff in their childhood.
Diogenes, I mentioned fascism because Obama and his cohorts are attempting to silence their enemies. Is that not a fascist move? Our government is taking over much of our economy. Is that not socialism in action? And last, but not least, Obama has surrounded himself with Marxists, such as Van Jones and Anita Dunn. Commie Saul Alinsky, is his hero and the source of his governing methods. Therefore, we have a combination of these philosophies.
Spare me the concern for my children. You care nothing for them. I'd say the public school children who are exposed to the perversion of Kevin Jennings are the ones at risk.
Ohhhhhhhh,NOW I understand: Barack Obama is half Socialist and half Fascist. That makes sense to you? How, exactly, does one body contain two polar opposites? Neat trick, if it could be done.
Maybe,instead of labelling Obama as fascist OR Socialist, you could just leave it at this:
"I hate Barack Obama and I will do or say anything to make my displeasure known to all. It might not make any sense whatsoever, if you try to find any semblance of logic, so don't even bother trying."
