The claim that Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, Milton Friedman, and David Horowitz are "against statism" is patently false and utterly ridiculous on its face!

These people are not "conservatives," they are FASCISTS.

David Horowitz 'Declares' Islamo-Fascism Awareness Week for October 22-26
by Jim Lobe


"This October 22-26, I am declaring Islamo-Fascism Awareness Week," declared David Horowitz Tuesday in a friendly interview on FrontpageMag.com, one of Horowitz's many front groups. "I will hold demonstrations and protests, teach-ins and sit-ins on more than 100 college campuses. Our theme will be the Oppression of Women in Islam and the threat posed by the Islamic crusade [????] against the West."

Horowitz, who, along with Frank Gaffney, James Woolsey, and Rick Santorum has played a truly vanguard role in the "Islamo-Fascism" movement, apparently has few doubts about his impact. "During the week of October 22-26, 2007, the nation will be rocked by the biggest conservative campus protest ever - Islamo-Fascism Awareness Week, a wake-up call for Americans on 200 university and college campuses." The event will confront the two "Big Lies of the political left:" that "George Bush created the war on terror and that Global Warming is a greater danger to Americans than the terrorist threat." In fact, according to Horowitz, Islamo-fascism constitutes "the greatest danger Americans have ever confronted." . . .

oh, come ON now!  Rush Limbaugh?  Seriously?    REWIND!  Let's go back to 2003:

Rush Limbaugh, 2/3/2003, WABC radio:

AND I QUOTE:

"....Hello I'm your host Rush Limbaugh, the man, the legend...I am having far
too much fun, more than the average human deserves to have...Bush's State of the
Union speech was not only a great speech, but indicative of a great man, a
great man...... We Conservatives are such compassionate people and we of course
want to rid the world of evil dictators like Saddam....uh, the Democrats, of
course, want to keep pacifying him.  And they all say they don't want war, but
all these people would have to do is get in line and join the chorus of world
opinion against Saddam, and there wouldn't be a need for anyone firing a shot.
I have a sound bite also from Nelson Mandela, where he says the war is all
about oil...."

(plays soundbite)

Mandela : "....This is an unjust war for oil.  Iraq has 64 percent of the
world's oil, and the US wants to seize it..."

Rush: "...Now, that was just so full of nonsense I don't even have time to
correct it.  Let me spell it out for you, Mr. Mandela -- (here he starts making
fun of Mandela's accent)  -- Iraq does not-a, have 64 percent-a, of all the
world's oil-a.  That is preposterous, and if it was really about oil -- I mean,
we're already in Kuwait, why wouldn't we just take it from Kuwait...would they
stop us?  Would they have Iraq invade the US?  No.  It's just preposterous. We
all know George Bush is going to rid the world of Saddam in one of two ways.
Saddam is going down either by the might of the US military, or by the might of
world opinion.  And these Democrats and these self-anointed peace protesters,
they say they don't like war and death, but they are all standing in the way of
the only peaceful option - world opinion.  And people say Rush, whaddya mean by
that... well since they won't join the chorus of world opinion against Saddam,
who's clearly an evil dictator, and who makes Slobodan Milosevic pale in
comparison -- then the only option is military action....they just don't get
it....You're not going to stop war by waving signs and protesting. And, these
Democrats are actually trying to blame the Shuttle disaster on the Bush
Administration, they're saying because of lack of funding is why it blew
up.....Again, preposterous, Bush has actually given more money to NASA in the
last year..."
----------------------------------------------
I'm not kidding, he really said all of this.  Let's see, all in the span of eight
minutes:

1 That racist slant accompanying his irrational ridicule of Nelson Mandela. 
2 Attempts to blame "liberals" for the US having to resort to war.
3 More protester bashing.
4 Actually claiming that Pro-war "conservatives" are somehow "compassionate."
5 Not only desperately and insanely attempting to deny the undeniable fact that
the war is about oil, but actually implying that the US is allowed to steal
Kuwait's oil without fear of consequences if they want to, since the troops are
already there. (!)
6 Lamely denying and trying to cover up what amounts to a year recordbreaking
cuts to NASA by the Bush Administration without offering any alternative
explanation to why the shuttle was lost.
7 Blatantly demanding that people toe Bush's line or face imminent war and
ridicule, while simultaneously portraying Bush as "a great man."

That is about as fascist as one can get.
