Richard Haass's book "The Bill of Obligations: The Ten Habits of Good Citizens," should be retitled, "The Ten Habits of Good Servants of the Status Quo."
It is full of statements like "Legitimate journalists--as opposed to political activists masquerading as journalists--ought to be treated with respect." P. 101
P. 49 "Iraq has WMDs" was a "misstatement," not a lie.
Haass also hates leakers (see p. 103).
He supports public money for religious & private schools. "What and how much to provide in the way of a social floor, to whom, and how it is paid for are necessary and legitimate matters for political debate. This involves federal, state, and local government efforts. ... It also includes making available scholarships to parochial, private, and charter schools as well as community and four-year colleges and universities." (p. 118)
As you read this, imagine yourself in a fascist state and see how well each of Haass's recommendations would work. Oh, and you need not imagine it. If you live in 21st century USA, you are in a fascist state, and Haass and his fellow imperialists have been working most of their lives to support it.
