I went to school with the grandson of Krupp. (It was during the Carter administration.) We were discussing methods his grandfather used to ‘survive’ the Nazis.
My mother never would join the party and was arrested many times. I often wondered what I would do if faced with the same circumstances. The ‘tone’ of the 2008 campaign is familiar. She said beware of those using Hate as their main motivation. She was alarmed when she heard Howard Dean say “I hate Republicans and everything they stand for” and of the BDS that is prevelant in the Democratic Party. She even told me to change parties.
You don’t need a weatherman to know which way the wind blows. As a small business owner, I only feel it’s a matter of time.
I spoke with a man during the Clinton years who served in the German army in WWII, he was in a tank. He told me that all the reeducation programs in the government was the same crap that the NAZI’s did when they took over Germany to reeducate the Germans in the rules of Socialism.
