Keep it civil and clean when commenting, however, please.
This kind of name-calling is proof that liberals grow old without ever having grown up; it is the adult version of the cooties game. Mature adults would never invidiously resort to argumenta ad Hitlerum.
It is also ignorance. Fascism was where the state declared war on foreign countries or despised minority groups. As was the case with communism, liberalism is where the state declares war on its own citizens. I think it is obvious which of these two positions characterizes Obama.
Having said this, I think the greatest fear of politicians on both sides of the aisle is that life will go on during the shutdown, and people just might begin to realize that they don't need either Washington or the self-important politicians. I hope it stays shut down personally. We'll all be better off.
