Gestapo is short for Geheime Statdstpolizei, National Secret Police. I suppose "Department of Homeland Defense" is more palatable, although there are those who would swallow it no matter the title.

But what am I saying???? "Republicans can do no wrong. Republicans can do no wrong. Republicans can do no wrong."

Why is my faith not stronger????

I cannot be any more direct than this: if you think there is any bit of reasonable comparison to be made between the Department of Homeland Security and the Gestapo, then three things are clear.

1) You obviously have not a clue as to what the Gestapo was really like.

2) Your ability to discern your surroundings is severely lacking compared to most people.

3) You would fit in just fine with Howard Dean, Al Gore, and the rest of the Democrats; you speak the same language.

Although only Sharpton would think to throw in the lines relating to prayers.
