An Englishman tours America

… and he finds no evidence of W’s fascism, in An Englishman in Monterey | Samizdata.net

While the climate is most agreeable, I must just say that this is not at all what I was expecting to find in ‘George Bush’s Amerikkka’. I have been here for very nearly a week now and I have not stumbled across a single Gulag. Perhaps they are all very well hidden. And if there are any Fascist Death Squads operating in the area, then the report of their rifles are being drowned out by the barking of the seals in Monterey Bay.

In fact, the only visibly disturbing characteristics of this place are a few too many ageing hippies and a zealous crusade against smokers. There are, however, compensations. It is mid-November and I can walk about in shirtsleeves during the day.

Golly gee, I wonder where the Fascist Death Squads went? Must be on vacation or something… 😛

  1. True. I know, myself, that in Cincinnati, there’s always such traffic jams around those gulags when the guards change shift…
