Bravo!
I finally got around to reading that Huff Post blog you linked to. It was the best analysis I've seen yet of the contemporary American political scene, and full of delicious little gems.
Here's one of particular interest to our own home-grown wingnuts, who so love to quote their favorite Socialist George Orwell to justify and legitimize their own barbarisms and disguise their own profound debt to MittelEuropan Fascism.
Another thing that fascism decidedly is NOT is the grotesque distortion made by Jonah Goldberg, to wit, that fascism is a kind of socialism and therefore "properly understood as a phenomenon of the left." This claim, in fact, is such a travesty of the idea of fascism that it functionally negates its meaning, rendering it, as George Orwell might describe it, a form of Newspeak. Indeed, it was Orwell himself who wrote that "the idea underlying Fascism is irreconcilably different from that which underlies Socialism. Socialism aims, ultimately, at a world-state of free and equal human beings. It takes the equality of human rights for granted. Nazism assumes just the opposite."
