America's Fascist Turn

Just when you think Fox Jazeera can't sink any lower, they hand Sean Hannity (their right-wing nutcase) his own Sunday show. Titled "Hannity's America," the show will include a weekly segment called "Enemy of the State."

Never mind that the phrase originated with the dictators of ancient Rome, today when most people hear the words "Enemy of the State" they think of Nazism and imperialism.

Thank God this guy isn't in the administration (it's bad enough he's their media mouthpiece). If he were actually in the government he'd be sending the "secret police" out to arrest his weekly enemies - anti-war activists, Democrats, gay men and women, doctors who perform abortions, and every other American who had the misfortune not to be white, middle aged, male, and ultra-Republican.
