Did anyone see Andrea Mitchell Reports? I'm home, laid up with an inflamed meniscus. I flipped over to MSNBC for amusement just in time to see Andrea Mitchell act incredulous that Poland was offended by Obama's reference to Polish Death camps.Major Garrett had to explain to her that the death camps were run by Nazis, and that many Polish Jews were slaughtered.I'm always amazed at liberals' complete ignorance of history. Astounding!

She and Obama may have been ignorant of the fact that the Nazis deliberately chose to hide their worst dirty work on occupied foreign soil, away from the eyes of Germans and neutral diplomats, a fact that Poles deeply resent.

Calling them “Polish” death camps is an implicit smear against the Polish people. The worst nationality you could be during World War II, from the point of view of survival, was a Jew. The second worse was Polish. The very, very worse off were Polish Jews.

Fool, if Obama said Polish Death Camps then the Death Camps were Polish - until he says otherwise.

Acting on Hitler’s plan for “lebensraum,” Germany annexed much of Poland into Greater Germany, or “Grossdeutsches Reich.” Technically, Auschwitz was in Germany.

Being ignorant of history makes it so much easier for them to re-write it.

Of course liberals are ignorant of ‘real’ historical facts because they always try to invent their own history that fits their suck-ass agendas.

Liberals are experts in diversity history. All they need to know is that whitey be blue eyed devils and da Jooos be da greedy spawn of Satan.

That old schtick only works on their own circle.

More and more people jumped from their circle, but I hope they don’t notice.

Well, yes, sure, but does that surprise anybody with even half a brain?

If Major Garrett also had an education he would not have specified “Polish Jews” but simply said “Polish people” were slaughtered. There were as many Christian Poles murdered as Jewish Poles.

Given that Poland is one of the few openly Christian conservative nations in Europe, I wouldn’t be surprised if obastard’s “gaffe” was an intentional verbal middle finger. Narcicists do things like that...

The more fundamental question should be:

Did the teleprompter say Polish death camps ?

Which would imply that 0bama may not have
attended high school at Punahoe.

Not to mention half of the 6 million were Polish Jews

Along with millions of Catholic Poles. The Germans were brutal and Poland may have had the largest % of its population lost of all the countries in WW II.

“I’m always amazed at liberals’ complete ignorance of history.”

It matters not that they are ignorant of history, they re-write it anyway to suit their needs while completely ignoring all lessons learned.
