Fascism is a religion of the state. It assumes the organic unity of the body politic and longs for a national leader attuned to the will of the people. It is totalitarian in that it views everything as political and holds that any action by the state is justified to achieve the common goal. It takes responsibility for all aspects of life, including our health and well-being, and seeks to impose uniformity of thought and action, whether by force or through regulation and social pressure. Everything, including economy and religion, must be aligned with its objectives. Any rival identity is part of the “problem” and therefore defined as the enemy. I will argue that contemporary American liberalism embodies all of these aspects of fascism. – Jonah Goldberg

WTF? Guantanamo Detainees Get New $750G Soccer Field

We all know what sub-humans do on soccer fields…

I guess it takes a six-figure income to create the pathetic results this state produces from its schools:

In 2009, the last year for which a required Internal Revenue Service report is available, more than a third of the unions $4.1 million budget went to pay just nine leaders. Each earned between $139,785 and $208,683 for a total of $1.5 million, according to the Clark County Education Associations report to the IRS.

John Jasonek, then executive director, got $208,683 for running the union but also received $423,863 from two affiliated organizations — the unions Community Foundation and Center for Teaching Excellence — making his total pay $632,546.In addition, union-created Teachers Health Trust CEO Peter Alpert was paid $546,133.

If you think anything the union does is about the children, you’d expect to see some sacrifices wouldn’t you?
