I'm actually watching Dinesh D'Souza's Speech at last week's YAF conference right now, and last night watched Hillary's America. He's so articulate and has an encyclopedic mind; only making his arguments through facts and data. I could listen to him all day.

More propaganda from a convicted criminal.

D'Souza is the guy who predicted that Obama would allow Iran to obtain nuclear weapons (didn't happen) and turn the national debt into a 'weapon of mass destruction' (whatever that means).

According to other right wingers, petrol was going to hit $6.08 a gallon by 2016 (didn't happen), unemployment would remain stuck at 8% (didn't happen; Obama actually halved it from 10% to 5%), the stock market would crash (didn't happen), and the entire US economy would collapse (didn't happen).

When the best praise your own right wing rags can come up with is

The conservative online magazine American Thinker claims that the film's broader points are reasonable, but that the film "oversimplifies, sometimes distorts, and excludes inconvenient facts."

Then you know it's a crock of **** to any right thinking person.

His joining the dots between the Democrats and the Nazis is because they both ran welfare programs?? I bet he uses the argument the Nazis were lefties because they had Socialists in their name...

Associate professor of history John Broich said of the film's premise of connecting liberalism with fascism that the film committed a category error, "a fallacy in which one compares or conflates things that actually belong in different categories". Broich said, "Fascism and leftism belong in fundamentally different categories, because the essence of fascism was, and is, anti-leftism." He said, "While historians certainly debate the details, they all agree with this basic precept about the core of fascism." Broich quoted fascism scholar Robert Paxton, "[Fascism is] dictatorship against the Left amidst popular enthusiasm."[4]
