Well, I've been wondering if I was the only one who thought that right wing ideologies have the same base irrespective of the country. So I did a litle search and have got some interesting results. So I thought this warranted a whole new thread
DesiTiger....here is a challenge from Narendra Modi to find the difference
"Narendra Modi sees his own vindication in George W. Bush's triumphalist seizing of a second term against fervent worldwide hope that challenger John Kerry would do something, anything, to wrest the White House from the neo-cons. Said Mr. Modi: "I see a lot of similarity between [Mr.] Bush's election speeches and my election speeches during 2002. [Mr.] Bush took up the issue of terrorism, something that I too did during my gaurav yatra. [Mr.] Bush warned off America's enemies while I warned Gujarat's enemies. I challenge political pundits to analyse that."

Well wadddya know...the vhp agrees 
http://www.hvk.org/articles/1002/32.html
"Continuing its tirade against Prime Minister Atal Behari Vajpayee the Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP), the Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP) on Tuesday said India needs strong leaders like George W. Bush and Arial Sharon , Presidents of America and Israel respectively to fight terrorists. The country under the present leadership has proved ineffective. "

"So why has the BJP failed to harness this unique Indian conservatism centred on religion to its political cause?
Simply because the BJP has failed to become a “normal” modern conservative party rooted in the soil. Instead, the BJP remains hostage to a divided sangh, elements of which (like the VHP) are like the Ku Klux Klan, other elements simply lost in strident rhetoric about “pseudos” and “leftists”. "
Hmmm...the VHP like the KKK? Did it cross my mind?

I'm almost done...I swear this person has read my mind when he writes
"In fairness to Mr. Bush, he chose his targets in far away countries whereas Mr. Modi used his own backyard for the crackdown. Yet the ideological oneness is striking. Mr. Modi returned to power on the back of a majoritarian campaign centred on Hindutva, terrorism, security and Muslim-bashing. Mr. Bush returned to the White House on the back of a majoritarian campaign centred on religion, family values, terrorism, security and gay-bashing. In both the elections, poor incumbency record sunk against claims of moral and political righteousness."

A 'Bump'
especially for our brothers who are quick to oppose Bush's ideologies but defend the right wing ideologies in India.
