Mustaches are Fascist

The Writers Strike, courtesy of the AMPTP, is having a variety of negative impacts.
From the Telegraph:
Organisers of this year’s Oscars are drawing up contingency plans for an alternative celebrity-free ceremony in case the awards show suffers the same fate as the Golden Globes because of the ongoing Hollywood writers’ strike.
From Reuters:
LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - Director John Singleton is among the latest casualties of the Hollywood writers strike, losing his production deal at Warner Bros. TV as part of a sweeping cost-cutting action by major studios.
But most significantly, the strike is killing TheA Daily Show. Specifically, Jon Stewart is having a difficult time finding guests who are willing to cross the picket lines as evidenced by the fact that he hosted that Fascist Jonah Goldberg (calling people fascist is apparently all the rage now, and I didn't want Goldberg to feel left out) last night. Given the political implications of the writers strike, I hesitated in posting the A Daily Show interview here. But Jon Stewart's take-down of Goldberg is so interesting and educational that I think it's in the public interest for everyone to see it:

Jon Stewart: But that's literally like saying mustaches are fascist.
It's amazing to me that writers such as Goldberg can engage in the most obvious logical fallacies (right on the cover) and still get a book published. In this interview, Stewart's reactions are so right on.

And I still haven't heard any credible argument that proves that Goldberg isn't Dracula. Go on. Prove a negative. It's not easy.
