So, Trump not going to the Correspondents' dinner is probably a good thing. He is embarrassing. And you know he would fly into a rage when roasted.
The only thing I really agree with him on, so far, is not accepting the refugees."The problem with quotes on the Internet is that it is sometimes hard to verify their authenticity." -Abraham LincolnComment

Growing up, I always thought of fascism more about control and limits than left or right. That said, Cuba was always the current example used.Grammar... The difference between feeling your nuts and feeling you're nuts.Comment

Regarding fascism. Back in the 60s there was a component to fascism related to the government being run by/for industrialists as happened in Germany. There was also the implication that statism "made the trains run on time..."
The industrialists have now been replaced by bureaucrats as the dominant "benefitted party" of modern statism (communism or fascism). There is no real difference between fascism and the communism we see in N Korea or Cuba.Comment

There's been an effort by a number of conservatives in recent decades (Jonah Goldberg among them) to turn fascism into a purely 'left-wing" phenomenon. Essentially only libertarianism and various degrees of that would be 'true conservatism'. Which completely ignores social conservatism, which nearly every fascist movement in history has embraced.Originally posted by Da Geezer View PostComment

We detain -and almost deport- Henry Rousso for 10 hours as he was en route to speak at Texas A&M.

Lot of people in CBP who unfortunately have an unhealthy contempt for foreigners of all stripes. And a lot of them feel the handcuffs have now been taken off...
(See my story a couple days ago about Muhammed Ali's son be detained and harassed because Muslim = suspicious).Comment

Yeah, I saw it.
I guess the Rousso hit me harder because I'm fond of his stuff. His series on Vichy France is really good."The problem with quotes on the Internet is that it is sometimes hard to verify their authenticity." -Abraham LincolnComment

Yeah, it tends to be the social aspects that define orientation. Otherwise there isn't a whole of difference, practically speaking.Originally posted by Dr. Strangelove View PostComment
