Is that republicans like that conservative commentator can help us push facism away and seal it in the dark hole that it again rose up from. Facism won't go away, there is and will be some in every country. What we can't allow to happen is for Facism to take over America, decent republicans (jeez, I can't believe I put those last two term side by side!), can help us turn back fascism, or they can be consumed by it, along with us.
