Fascist America, medical in 10 easy steps, from 2007, by liberal author Naomi Wolf lists the 10 ways the Bush administration was creating a Totalarian regime.

- Invoke a terrifying internal and external enemy
- Create a gulag
- Develop a thug caste
- Set up an internal surveillance system
- Harass citizens’ groups
- Engage in arbitrary detention and release
- Target key individuals
- Control the press
- Dissent equals treason
- Suspend the rule of law
