>> This thread is an insult to Thomas Dewey.

I think the poster could have done a better job making it clear, up front, that Thomas Dewey (indeed, an honorable man) never gave this speech.

However, the “what if this is how they acted in WWII” meme is VERY relevant and VERY important to consider.

Why did you contact the Admin Moderator, P-Marlowe? So he would pull the thread? I think that’s quite a bit over the top and I don’t agree at all that it needs to be “admin moderated”.

These thread fall into search engines all over the world and this could end up as a stain on the reputation of Thomas Dewey at some point in the future. This so-called speech could get picked up by someone who didn't realize it was a lousy piece of satire and the next thing you know future generations will judge Thomas Dewey to be some kind of seditious traitor.

So yes, I would like this thread pulled. It is not funny and it is not creative. It posts a picture of a fine man in a false light.

I'm pinging the Admin Moderator again. Hopefully he will see fit to pull this thread.
