Essay:Obama and fascism

Recently, right-wingers have been finding out that calling U.S. President Barack Obama a Red has become quite a tired shtick. So, naturally, they have made an alteration in their epithets, and Obama has of late frequently been called a fascist or Nazi.

In this essay, I will compare Obama against Dr. Lawrence Britt's warning signs of fascism, as enumerated here. Caveat lector: I am not an enthusiastic supporter either of Obama or of these so-called warning signs; this is more a fun exercise than anything else.
