Wow,
I was unaware of this organization...
But Andrew C. McCarthy was on "Beyond the Politics" on CNNI saturday night.

That organization is just off the charts... hehe, what a bunch of wackos. I mean... on last Friday, Jonah Goldberg was on Larry King... and he is intimate with the GPS Think Tank neo-con program hosted by as well as the National Review. He is a really stark anti-European, like many orthodox Jews are... and I he is a neo-con at heart, and frequently support various supremacist and elitist views on colonization and censorship, meritocracy etc. The guy is a despicable fucker in my view...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ben_J._Wattenberg (neo-con host of GPS Think tank - and Goldberg and him worked together at the AEI)
There are so many wacko ideologists at AEI - American Enterprise Institute... it is beyond fathoming. Why are taxpayer money wasted on crazy fuckers like this who come up with the most radical aggressive ideas and policies possible? They reverberate special interests and hatred against mortal enemies - like the Israeli plight in the Middle East. It is just so fucked up...
Goldberg criticizes totalitarian socialism - but at the same time he is touting totalitarian police states and being authoritarian with his neo-con support. That is just like Bertram Myron Gross warned of in his 1980 book "Friendly Fascism"...

The parallels to the neo-cons and Ingsoc are totally frightening - but then the founders and influencers of neo-cons are former Trotskyists who later became strongly anti-Communists - like Irving Kristol and James Burnham.

The ideas of "all out global war" were especially strong from Burnham in his column in the National Review called "Third World War".
The very ideas of James Burnham were the inspiration for George Orwell's "1984" masterpiece...
So - if anyone haven't gotten my little jokes about Ingsoc and Room 101 by now... well, then you'll never get it.

Another "crazy US organization"...
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Defense_of_Democracies
What - are neoconservatives the only conservatives that CNN can try and pass on as "conservatives"?
Gimme a break - these guys are seriously aggressive radical elitist crazy-munching ideologists...
Their ideas are some of the most extreme far-right there is... they are for total police state and removing any civil rights, as well as pre-emptively attacking anyone - AND waging a global war of ideas against media and the Internet. They hide behind names as "Defense of Democracies" - but instead they are about destroying nations so that they can rebuild them to fit their ideas.
I find it ... I don't know...
Seriously, there is something so weird and mind-boggling about the US mass media right now. I doubt anyone who feeds off purely US news can be objective - because it's all so out of whack with the rest of the world. It is crazy, just total loonie-bin crazy...
The state of US politics is truly depressing - and the fact that people are not even aware that the "1984" police state was inspired by the very ideas of those who have been in power for the last presidency... well, now we see that Ingsoc is possible, and Bush and the neo-cons proved it... total madness and domestic suppression as well as outwards oppression --- just crazy and saddening stuff.
