"Ominous Parallels" indeed

From the Editors:

One of the longest standing and most respected conservative journals Human Events, recently uncovered some shocking information on Supreme Court nominee Elena Kagan. She repeatedly cited a 20th century European Marxist-turned-Nazi Werner Sombert in her college thesis paper. And the references were not academic, but rather supportive and even hopeful. From HE:

In the introduction to her 1981 thesis, Kagan addresses a question famously asked by Sombart: Warum gibt es in den Vereinigten Staaten keinen Sozialismus? -- "Why is there no socialism in the United States?"

[She wrote] "In the first two decades of the twentieth century the American socialist movement, whose very existence Sombart refused to consider, grew if not by leaps and bounds at least by inches."

Even before he embraced National Socialism, Sombart's socialist theories reflected an anti-Semitic tendency that identified Jews with capitalism, a theme explored in his 1911 book, Die Juden und das Wirtschaftsleben ("The Jews and Economics").

For the "Total Ordering of Life"

Perhaps even more alarming, according to HE, one of Sombert's books was titled ""Deutscher Sozialismus," which advocated the "total ordering of life.""

Robert Byrd & the fascist KKK = zero mainstream media coverage.

Obama & Black Nationalists = zero mainstream media coverage.

and now...

Kagan and her citing of Marxist/National Socialist Werner Sombart in her college thesis paper = zero mainstream media coverage.

Any surprises here?
