From a reader:

Regarding the post of reactions to your NYT’s #1 (congratulations by the way): One poster wrote this: “I don’t usually go in for book burning, being a good “liberal” and all. But with Goldberg’s book I’ll make an exception. (Call me a “liberal fascist.”)”
First, of course, the final line above is trying to ironically weasel out of fascist behavior. Apparently if you are hip enough to wink at using the tactics of the Brown Shirts then you get a pass (if only Mussolini knew about the hip irony thing his place in the history books might be a little different). Second, wow, what a boon to your personal finances. Imagine if only 10% of LF hating liberals burnt a copy. You be #1 for ages (“Damn it’s still on the bestseller list-send out liberal minions to buy another thousand copies to burn this weekend”). I really think that you should encourage this as much as possible. I will try to haunt a site or two and see if I can stir up any interest in communal LF burnings.
I must apologetically admit that I have yet to order my copy. I am interested professionally (history teacher). I suppose I could imitate the weasel above and say its because I can’t think of something clever for you to inscribe (still an option when bought through NRO right?) but the fact is I am painfully busy.
Cheers,
PS I have very carefully taught the socialist/fascist connection in my history classes in the past. I have a powerpoint that compares them. I conclude with a statement like “And of course Hitler and Mussolini hated the communists because they had completely opposite political ideas—right?” It is always nice when a student or two says “hey, wait a minute . . . “ or some such.
PPS please no name if you immortalize me on NRO-I am in a new school this year and keeping my head down.
