Indymedia:
Anti-American, anti-religion, anti-civilization.

The Italian arm of the Independent Media Center, whose site is a forum for hundreds of contributors around the world on issues ranging from anti-globalization to gay rights, could not be reached for comment.

The Antichrist lefties just keep exposing themselves, don't they?

...Italian branch of the international news and opinion site, Independent Media Center (www.indymedia.org).

That assessment of IndyMedia is like calling Hitler an "ordinary German".

This is the difference between the mainstream press and indymedia. We all know how slanted the MSM is, how they conveniently ignore certain questions, facilitate push polls, ignore certain stories, play to death others, etc. you know the spiel. That is why rathergate was such a blatant black eye. It went one step further at the highest level and disallowed a simple excuse. It was a fabrication dressed as high-journalism.

That being said, the times are a'changin' and each story can now be often cross-referenced, fact-checked etc. Yet the MSM still has to be very careful about out-right lies. When they lie they have to often utilize a clintonian plausible denial technique.

Indymedia is an example of fantasy journalism and I am dead set against this attempt to ban these socialist/commie "journalists" especially when they decide to wear no clothes. I want their anger, deceit, dishonesty on display. Then when the koolaid crowd tauts a "fact" they saw on an indymedia release they can be quickly belittled.

I knew there was a reason I liked Italians!

I wonder why the media ALWAYS has to mention what other groups think of the Pope's selection? Who gives a rat's patootie? Nothing will change with other groups. There will still be sniping about the Pope and Church and how horrible the Church has been over the centuries....yada-yada-yada.

The Nazi site just shows how scared the Pope-haters are. That he is German always adds to it. We have such an anti-German attitude in this country. Not surprising the website exists. I'm just surprised that it's NOT here. I guess the Italian website is peopled by some of those folks OVER THERE.

The crude photomontages of the head of former German Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger on the body of a man wearing a swastika armband and standing in front of a Nazi flag...

You mean they montaged a Nazi flag, Henry Windsor, and Ratzi all together? Those demons!

I thought this new fellow was more of a "sticks and stones may break my bones; but names will never hurt me"-kind of guy(?).

Let us weigh the balance

Nazi Germany

1. Murdered 12 million in death camps
2. Nazis never won popular support (took power illegally)
3. Few people involved in the killing (SS types but few others)
4. The world condemns Nazis to this day (rightly so)


United States today

1. Murdered 45 million in abortion mills (haven't even started good euthanasia)
2. Every politician claims popular support (rightly so)
3. Every year 1.5 M have blood on their hands. (Reg. women not incl clinic staff)
4. Claims moral authority around the world (many fans)

Anyone see a problem with this picture? Everyone wants the abortion exception, they will not get it, but they want to pretend "that's different". It isn't; but they like their blinders on and will resent the comparison. Like it or not, it is justified. This is not a "Christian" nation and we are NOT moral but we have much better PR people than the Nazis did.
