Subject: RE: BS: Are we still having fun as Fascists Yet
In Canada the Americans who came North because they didn't agree with the revolution were called 'Loyalists'. That is, they were still loyal to the queen.

Politics evolve just like everything else. Change is the only truth. What we have now in the U.S. is, I think, best described as 'Americon'. The Bush administration 'conned' their people (and Britain and Australia, too), big time. They have also 'conned' the media. So instead of referring to Bush and company as Fasicts or Neo Conservatives or whatever... They're Americons to me. That goes for their sidekicks, too. The melding of big business and right wing conservatives using Christ as their sword - Americons.
