Don’t look now, but Obama again sails into uncharted waters by naming Jefferey Immelt, CEO of General Electric, head of his jobs committee. Imagine, if this was announced by George W, liberals would have screamed like fat kids at diet camp. But the national response is light applause and yawns, proving once again—it’s not what is done, but who does it—that matters to leftists.
Fascinatingly, such collusion between government and big business recalls Nazi fascist economics. Such blurred lines between public and private sectors is the subject of this column.
I. Obama’s Agreement with General Electric & Jeff Immelt
Obama is not Adolph Hitler. Yet, it’s still weirdly fascinating how he repeatedly recycles disproved ideas of leftist regimes. For example, fascists accommodated industry in a way communists could not imagine. Now Obama reuses their playbook.
Of the Immelt appointment, the White House said,
A board to get Americans back to work and strengthen our economy will be chaired by Jeff Immelt, CEO and Chairman of General Electric…The Council will focus on finding new ways to promote growth by investing in American business

Whether obama is more of a fascist or more of a socialist is probably a distinction in search of a difference. For many Germans, who never drank the kool aid, the nazis and communists were all regarded as "bolshevists."
LOL...that's hilarious.
BINGO
National Socialism by any other name...
In a word, YES.
I call it communism; but, then, I call everything communism that isn’t freedom, democracy, and free markets. Fascism is only a poorly disguised version of communism. So again, the answer to whether our High Chancellor is resurrecting fascism is: “you bet your life” (and liberty; and property).
AND there is Government Motors.
The nexus between government and the financial services (banks and wall street) is also a factor.
Is Obama resurrecting failed Nazi policies?
Does the sun still set in the West?
Do bears still sh*t in the woods?
Next question.
they need to get some cool slogans like “work sets you free”, or “strength through joy”
The Nazi’s were the original Greenies too

Also, Zero will have to round up a WHOLE BUNCH of slave labor.
I nominate federal employees to fill that role.
Obamunism.
You mean like Together we thrive?

I see you will be one of the early entries into “re-education camp” soon to come to your community, courtesy of the Community Organizer!
For more details, read “Holocaust Chronicle”, especially the trials for business users of slave labor under the German Government in WWII....generally a light “slap on the wrist...” A very moving documentary of those times...makes Congressman Cohen look like the idiot he is...am I allowed to say that?
