Get your extremist politics straight

Andy Perfecto

This is a quick response to Mr. Erickson. I don’t want to get into your little battle about which politician is right or wrong … basically they are all the same. But I do want to inform you that you made a pretty bad mistake by calling Ms. Leonard a fascist.

First, a fascist is closer to a Republican than a Democrat.

See, a Republican is to the right … a fascist is on the extreme right. So please get that straight.

If she is bashing your Republican candidate, then she is probably leaning to the left. So you should have called her a socialist. If you really want to go to the extreme, then call her a communist.

Coming from a country that was under control of a fascist dictator for almost 40 years, I think I know what a fascist is. Maybe you should get your facts straight.
