183. McDermott has been consistently right about the neofascists.
Not his term (neofascist), but mine. Jim doesn't use that term, to my knowledge. Nevertheless, neoconservatives are more properly identified as neofascists by the actual positions that they hold to, not those carefully crafted for public consumption.

Mr. McDermott gave a clear and eloquent explanation of his remarks Monday evening at 22:00 on the Mike Webb show on 710 KIRO AM news radio.

Unlike the mass media portrayal and Pennsylvania Ave. propaganda, this alleged capture was hardly a success. The fact that the military could not capture their own stooge before now just points out to me how hapless their leadership really is. Of course, any serious analysis has to consider the desired propaganda effects of having a "villain" to play the foil for the Texas Ranger image of the putrescent poltroon.
