you can of course use the fascism thing as a way to dismiss what is at issue here--its cheap and easy--but the main point for me at least is that the objection to people in other countries making their opinions (against bush in overwhelming majority) known to american voters is not a problem--using nationalism to object to the fact of it rather than think about what it might mean of america's implication in the wider world, and about the fact that much is at stake in the coming election **is** a problem.
