Tea-Partiers(&company) are our fascists' (hoped-for) brownshirts

You think the tea partiers are fascists? I consider them just the opposite (anarchists). Fascists exert a regime of control, and the tea party by definition has no control, no consistent message, and not even a cause worth fighting for. They are just haphazardly yelling at everything, and the only words they chant in unison (i.e. "Socialism") are taught to them by the background propagandists who are financing the movement.

The Bush administration were fascists - they went to war without an act of Congress, they forbade the media from covering the White House, they condoned toture and rendition illegally, and let's not forget the Patriot Act....

Compared to that, the tea party hasn't a clue. They aren't leaders, they are followers. They aren't organized, they fight among themselves, they don't even know what they are angry about... that truly is the opposite of fascism. It's anarchy.
