Henry Wallace, we hardly knew ye.

ashcroft loves u.Former Vice President and then-secretary of Commerce Henry Wallace's1944 article on “The Danger of American Fascism” has been resurrected at truthout (and pointed to by Metafilter).

The
dangerous American fascist is the man who wants to do in the United
States in an American way what Hitler did in Germany in a Prussian way.
The American fascist would prefer not to use violence. His method is to
poison the channels of public information. With a fascist the problem
is never how best to present the truth to the public but how best to
use the news to deceive the public into giving the fascist and his
group more money or more power.

Ahem. And why exactly would this resurface?
