Jonah Goldberg's symbol (on his book cover) for liberalism is dead on target - it pins liberalism firmly to the dissecting board with the best and funniest icon I've ever seen for liberalism:

I'd be more impressed if Jonah weren't such a dumbass.

Hilarious... and never done before, I'm sure.

Not to get technical, but Mussolini was not a member of the American left.

If there is one thing consistent about Fascist movements in various countries, it is that they all share a contempt for Liberalism. Fascism is a political philosophy of the extreme RIGHT, one that commonly solicits support by praising the Volk and their traditional values. That's not anyone's idea of Liberalism.

Sorry, if you want to attack Liberalism, you'll have to try a different tack.

Wait a minute!!! Your's is even BETTER!! HAPPY HITLERS!! I LOVE IT!

He's referring to Bob J. Mussolini, an American union steward from Gary, Indiana.

so here is an accepted definition of liberalism.

personally i find nothing objectionable with it nor can i equate it in anyway to this definition of fascism;

so what is it exactly we are debating? are we redefining the english language on the fly, on our own?

this is very confusing to old gringo living in the outback of new mexico.

So what's in the book that impressed you so much, Blade?

You did actually read it, right?
