Real anti-fascists

[gordonzola]

As some idiot incoherently tries to sell a book arguing that liberals=progressives=communists=fascists and only right-wingers are really for freedom, let us take a moment to remember a real American anti-fascist. Let's also remember that the people who went to fight fascism in Spain, when many right-wingers and industrialists were cozying up to it, were hounded by the US government, labeled "pre-mature anti-fascists", and blacklisted or jailed.

Is there anyone more deserving of a (theoretical of course) punch in the face right now than Jonah Goldberg?

yeah, I guess I don't spend enough time monitoring right-wing up-and-comers because I had never heard of this guy until a couple of weeks ago.

I loved reading about your debate, btw. I forgot to comment.

Goldberg came to fame during the Lewinsky scandal. His mother was Linda Tripp's book agent. You could hardly turn on cable TV between 1998 and 2000 without seeing him.
