"Liberal Fascism"

Anyone read this book yet?

Glenn Beck did a good series of interviews with the author, looks like a great read.

Watch the vids here (http://www.cnn.com/CNN/Programs/glenn.beck/), left side of the page, about midway down under "Jonah Goldberg Series".

Watch him. He's seductive, but a neocon never the less. Notice how he crabs about the fascism of the left, but never acknowledges that the Republicans are guilty of the same things.

He's also quite a skilled at making a case for war mongering.

Here's a telling Goldberg article: http://snurl.com/20oe9 [www_latimes_com]


Iraq Was a Worthy Mistake

The failure to find weapons of mass destruction is a side issue. The WMD fiasco was a global intelligence failure, but calling Saddam Hussein's bluff after 9/11 was the right thing to do. Washington's more important intelligence failure lay in underestimating what would be required to rebuild and restore post-Hussein Iraq. The White House did not anticipate a low-intensity civil war in Iraq, never planned for it and would not have deemed it in the U.S. interest to pay this high a price in prestige, treasure and, of course, lives.

To me, both the parties have leaned this way. Fascism is the collusion of government and corporations into a single governing mass and that is what both parties do.

The differences are that one is an LBJ/Kennedy wing of the party and the other is the Jimmie Carter wing. There are no Republicans anymore.

But the interviews have some good stuff in them, I enjoyed watching them. Wilson and FDR getting exposed for the mess they've caused.
