What, was Huey Long some kind of prophet to the Left or something? Besides, the Left was using the term fascist against the pres long before the pres started using the term.
"What, was Huey Long some kind of prophet to the Left or something?"
Apparently. What's really funny is, he was speaking of his own, envisioned rise to national prominence, within the Democrat party. He was rather prescient, though. Who sees bogeymen under every bed domestically, and immediately squeals "fascist?" Who are the self-appointed "antifascists," who celebrate ever deeper involvement of government and industry, who love "public-private partnerships," and revere utterly corrupt leaders-for-life such as Ted Kennedy? Democrats, that's who.
