You are a magnificent example of the defense mechanism Intellectualization. And the ego you have about it is extra sweet.

If America started doing what the Nazis did to the Jews I would not be in the armed forces fighting for it; no matter how much I love my country or was trying to get back national pride.

I've learned all I need to know about you. Good day.

All right, I conned my wife into going to the last matinee showing of Valkyrie. (She wanted to see Marley and Me. Go figure.)

It was a good movie. Painstaking technical accuracy. I am a nut about military aircraft and vehicles, particularly Second World War, and I couldn't spot any inaccuracies. The story was accurate as well.

This is a comeback phase of sorts for the career of Tom Cruise, after Vanilla Sky. We must remember that as a practicing Scientologist, Cruise has taken a stand against the gay lifestyle; and in retaliation, gays and their many allies in the media have decided that He Must Be Destroyed.

For that reason alone, whenever he turns in at least an acceptable performance like this one, he deserves our support.

The simple fact is that at this very moment the US is carrying out a far more horrendous massacre of innocent human beings than the Nazis ever did. Most of us do little about it, perhaps voting, speaking, or demonstrating to stop it, and nearly no one takes any stronger steps to end the American Holocaust. Before you are so quick to condemn the Nazis, perhaps you should recognize that many of us are their moral equivalent.
