Rumsfeld says we must be Fascist to defeat Fascist

Sources are reporting that in a speech today to the American Legion, Donald Rumsfeld made the claim

any kind of moral or intellectual confusion about who and what is right or wrong can weaken the ability of free societies to persevere

Any kind of moral or intellectual confusion about the "rising threat of a new type of fascism" is a bad thing Mr Runsfeld? Am I reading this right? Let's examine this statement for what it means. Confusion results when there is a lack of clarity. In the sense Mr Rumsfeld made this statement, an answer is not clear when there is disagreement. We must all agree to a specific course of action for there to be no moral or intellectual clarity.

Now, let's look at a definition of fascism:

A social and political ideology with the primary guiding principle that the state or nation is the highest priority, rather than personal or individual freedoms.

Fascism does not allow deviation from the states view. The state decides the best course of action and the people are expected to follow it without question. This is exactly what Mr Rumsfeld is insisting is best for our country in his address. We should drop our complaints and diverging viewpoints so that there is no 'confusion'. We must all support the official state view. How is this not fascism? How can they claim to want democracy for every country but our own?

Want to know something even more frightening about our country and fascism? It was the father of Fascism, Benito Mussolini who said "Fascism should more properly be called corporatism because it is the merger of state and corporate power." Think about that the next time you think about Haliburton.
