Seeing where our nation is headed, I think about Germany, and everyday Germans as Nazism overwhelmed their nation. People just like us. Now I look at those film clips, and get sick to my stomach....a whole nation of young men turned into monsters.
My husband’s first tour with the Army was 1964, and twice after that. Last tour was in the mid-80’s. Watching Germany recover materially , and distance themselves from the war, they have never recovered the damage to their souls. Just overwhelming to think that could happen to us.
I kept joking about the “Obama Youth” singing “Tomorrow belongs to me”
Now the joke’s on me. . .
I can understand your using the lesson of Germany in the ‘30s to a point. However this is America in 2010, not Germany in 1933. To be fair to history, there is NO comparision between the two. We are still a nation of free people despite what others might think and few of any of us could ever know what it was like in Germany at that time. We’re still a nation of free men and women and we’re armed. Something the German people weren’t. I’m sick of listening to the belly-aching from people who think we have to put up with this crap. Vote the bastards out in 2012 and if need be then we should follow the example of the Founders.
