How many people would know who Mussolini was?
—How many people would know who Mussolini was?—
There’s the rub. If I were Ann Couolter I might, in a live interview, compare him to Hitler in the same way williams did. That is, with a non-political analogy (like golf). Then when they call me on it I’d say, “HAHAHAHA, Did I say Hitler?! Laugh, snicker, snort!! I mean’t Mussolini!”
And then explain the tangible similarities. And they are legion.
That requires a knowledge of history... something Americans tend not to have.
Obviously not many, otherwise they'd understand that the economic goals and policies of Obama and the economic policies followed by Mussolini are very much the same. The US economy has morphed toward fascism and the last wall against it, Liberty, is being predictably eroded by the administrative organs of the regime (see: EPA, Dept. of Energy, Boeing, Gibson Guitars, Comcast(NBC purchase). This coming election is "IT". It will be Liberty or Fascism.
Yeah, most of the idiots in this country probably think Mussolini is the guy down the road that has the pizza parlor. Now, even they know who Hitler was. I think it was great how Hank tweaked the Fox and Friends crew. They were all looking for off-stage clues as to what to do. Kilmeade looked like he was about to soil his drawers. it was a little over the top, but then that’s Hank Wlliams Jr. They had to know that going in.
Mussolini. Sure I know mussolini. They serve that at Olive Garden.
But he DID make the trains run on time!!
I think Il Duce began his political career as a socialist. He became a rabid fascist later.
