I've argued for years on political boards that fascism was solidly based on liberalism and even "progressive" movements.  The lefties like to call conservatives "fascist" but every time I hear it I have to laugh... at their complete ignorance.

I won't go into my usual diatribe explaining why liberalism is fascism because now I don't have to.  Someone has finally authored a book that's well researched which draws the parallels. 

You can read a review here:  http://hiram7.wordpress.com/2008/01/22/liberal-fascism-the-secret-history-of-the-american-left-from-mussolini-to-the-politics-of-meaning/

You may also find the book on Amazon.com:  http://www.amazon.com/Liberal-Fascism-American-Mussolini-Politics/dp/0385511841?tag=word08-20

I've got that on my list. I hear it's a great book.
I can see November 2 from my house!!!

No, my friends, there’s only one really progressive idea. And that is the idea of legally limiting the power of the government. That one genuinely liberal, genuinely progressive idea — the Why in 1776, the How in 1787 — is what needs to be conserved. We need to conserve that fundamentally liberal idea. That is why we are conservatives. --Bill Whittle

Neocon is the new fascist.
According to the Bible, "know" means "yes."

I know, right!

I think I'm gonna have that slogan embroidered on my bell-bottoms in big, shiny rhinestones.

I may not lock my doors while sitting at a red light and a black man is near, but I sure as hell grab on tight to my wallet when any democrats are close by.

Jonah Goldberg on Liberal Fascism at the Heritage Foundation. (5+ min.)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lWbPVonvGGo

Pretty good. Makes me want to buy the book.
"When you see that trading is done, not by consent, but by compulsion - when you see that in order to produce, you need to obtain permission from men who produce nothing - when you see that money is flowing to those who deal, not in goods, but in favors - when you see that men get richer by graft and by pull than by work, and your laws don't protect you against them, but protect them against you - when you see corruption being rewarded and honesty becoming a self-sacrifice - you may know that your society is doomed."

- Ayn Rand

Goldberg? Sounds like a Jooooo.

Oh wait, wrong board.  :-)

There's a reason why patriotism is considered a conservative value. Watch a Tea Party rally and you'll see people proudly raising the American flag and showing pride in U.S. heroes such as Thomas Jefferson. Watch an OWS rally and you'll see people burning the American flag while showing pride in communist heroes such as Che Guevera. --Bob, from some news site
