Pretty much, Mr. Mom. They all line up to kneel in front of their corporate masters.

That list was compiled by studying the policies and practices of several fascist governments including Italy and Germany...

That the US fits the description should send alarm bells across the world...

That the Conservatives wish to emulate the current US administration and solidify their powerbase on American neo-conservative ideals should send alarm bells across Canada...

Yes. But they took each of the points and skewed them to the United States, for example the religious one, taking a religion and using it.

Hitler created a pseudo-religion of the state while he abolished Christianity. He used religion, though he didn't take a current one. Meanwhile the republicans did take a religion an used it.

Hitler, like some of today's politicians and preachers, politicized "family values." He liked corporal punishment in home and in school. Jesus prayers became mandatory in all schools under his administration. While abortion was illegal in pre-Hitler Germany he took it to new depths of enforcement, requiring all doctors to report to the government the circumstances of all miscarriages. He openly despised homosexuality and criminalized it. If past is prologue, we know what to expect if liberty becomes license.

Sound like someone we all know?

Sorry, but I'm not buying into the usual Christian apologetic response to Hitlers' campaign for Christianity...
