I never in my wildest dreams ever imagined that I would actually read in what was once the Soviets Propaganda machine, Pravda, what is happening in our country. The abject failure of our MSM is evident in how so many American news agencies and papers are closing their doors. Good riddance to garbage, in my opinion.
In this article, Noam Chomsky, like all Left wing advocates, is trying to place the Tea Party movement with the far Right-wing. Why do the Progressives always try to group Conservatives with Nazis extremists when those groups are closer to them in their ideology? Conservatives are actually closer to the Libertarians, because of their shared view of less government control.

Chomsky Warns of Rise of the Far Right in the U.S.
Recent research from the New York Times / CBS News poll revealed that 18% of Americans identify themselves as supporters of the Tea Party, classify themselves "very conservative" and are very pessimistic about the direction of the country and severely critical of Washington and, of course, Obama. Over 90% of them believe that the country moves to a wrong path and the same percentage disapproves of the president and his administration policy. Already 92% of respondents estimated that Obama leads the country "toward socialism" (an opinion shared by more than half the population in general).
Moreover, the expressions of popular right-wing anger are registered when referencing more hate crimes, a rise of radical right-wing groups, as well as unofficial reports of a growing number of death threats against the president. Public safety agencies have raised the alert status for what is called "domestic terrorism."
Incidents were reported, several under investigation, of acts of intimidation against congressmen and other elected officials. Earlier this month, more than 30 governors received letters from an anti-government, ultra-conservative group who demanded their resignation in a period of three days (although there was no threat of violence), which meant that federal authorities have warned local police that the letters could lead to violent behavior. As such, there are more examples throughout the country.
The wave of disillusionment with the government and its rulers causes concern among some politicians who do not know what impact this might have on the elections of next November. But for others the issue is more alarming.
"It's very similar to Weimar Germany, the parallels are striking." Here, too, there is a tremendous disappointment with the parliamentary system, pointed Chomsky interviewing on Truthdig.
"The United States is very lucky that no honest and charismatic figure has appeared, and if this were to happen this country would be in real trouble for the frustration, disillusionment and the justified anger combined with the absence of a coherent response," he concludes.
In Germany, he recalls, an enemy was created to explain the crisis which was the Jew. "Here they are the illegal immigrants and blacks. We will say that white men are a persecuted minority. We will say that we must uphold and defend the honor of the nation. Military force will be exalted. There will be blows. This could be converted into an undeniable force. And if it takes place, it will be more dangerous than Nazi Germany. The United States is a world power ... I do not believe that this is far from happening," he says. 1.

A) This is the model that the Progressives have always wanted us to believe, a simple left and right. The extremes of this were the Communists on the Left and the Nazis on the Right, nothing could be further from the truth.

B) The political spectrum is not linear but actually has a multi-dimensional aspect to it. This is far closer to what is actually is in this country in 2010.
I know that this is a more complex world view B), but it is necessary to understand that the simplistic model A), is very inaccurate but has been universally been taught in our schools. This has been a very concerted effort to dumb down our population so that when events like the last presidential election can occur. Noam Chomsky keeps fanning the flames when the Progressives see that their short lived victories will come to an end. They have overstepped their bounds and have failed to realise that most Americans are Conservative to a certain extent and know that the Constitution has made us the great country that we are.
Our founding fathers gave us seeds to grow American Exceptionalism. We are proud of it and do not want to apologize for it. Live Free!
