awhile back, people on lbo-talk had (yet another) fruitless discussion of whether or not the word "fascist" should be applied to the current era in the United States. Comedian Margaret Cho has the final word here:

"Bush is no Hitler. He would be if he applied himself."

Of course, the second part is not true, but it's funny.

(quote from the New York TIMES, 9/2/05, p. B6) -- Jim Devine "Segui il tuo corso, e lascia dir le genti." (Go your own way and let people talk.) -- Karl, paraphrasing Dante.
