Nicholson Baker and Pat Buchanan are high on the list of Osama Bin Laden's "Favorite Infidels". They have done the impossible. They have written well-selling books proclaiming that World War II should NOT have been fought. Sir Winston Churchill was the real villian of the Forties they claim. They claim that World War II marked the destruction of the West. Because Britain, France and The Netherlands were bled white by the war, they could no longer hold on to their colonies.
Aw pshaw.
To digress a moment, young presidential candidate Adolf Hitler perceived a problem selling Nazism to the German people. [I wonder why?]. To his rescue came Dr. Josef Goebbels. He told that much maligned and misunderstood man [apparently--if we are to accept the premises of these two pieces of literary excrement] that the solution was to simply tell a Big Lie [not a small one, mark you] and repeat it over and over.
Well, poor Hitler didn't get the presidency, but the Nazi gains in the Reischstag and their repeated, energetic attacks on the Weimar State so weakened the Republic that by 1933 the guy who won the presidency had to make Hitler the Chancellor...the real power in the Government.
Score one for Dr. Goebbels.
Well folks...believe it or not....he's back. And as Madison Avenue would say, he's bigger and better than ever. There is even two of him! Deft, Dextrous [see amazon's product page for the book] Nicky Baker and Ol' Archconservative Pat Buchanan.
The Big Lie was probably just a matter of time...for two reasons. The first is that Lyndon Baines Johnson told so many little ones about Vietnam that Bill and Hillary Clinton were able to tell lots of little ones about anything and everything...even things they didn't have to. The second is that the Big Lie told by Pat and Nicky is the ONLY WAY America and Europe will sit still for another Holocaust.
You see the jihadists need to stage another Holocaust to please their god.
And according to the British Government, ALL Muslims are offended by mention of the Holocaust. That's why the British Goverment ordered its teachers to STOP teaching the Holocaust to British children.
Maybe there are three Dr. Goebbelses. Add the Rightly Dishonourable UK Minister of Education.
Anybody else want to get on the Bandwagon? Any frustrated Nazis out there itching for another shot at the Jews, the Slavs, the Catholics, the gays and the gypsies? How about the California "Minister of Education"? You already force Jewish and Christian children to take Muslim names and pray to Allah on prayer rugs. Why not go all the way? How about the defeatists in Israel? Ye who desecrate the agony of your ancestors and demean the War of Survival?
There is still time to get on the Favorite Infidel List. I'm sure you'll get lavender scented gas when it's your turn.
World War II was unnecessary?
I suppose Hitler didn't keep conquering countries as Chamberlain kept trying to appease him. I suppose Hitler never divested a whole ethnic group of their property and civil rights...then starved and killed them in awful camps.
I suppose the Japanese were never conducting genocide on the Pacific Island territories given to them by League of Nations mandate or in China or Manchuria.
I suppose ALL OF THIS was never done BEFORE A SHOT WAS FIRED by the Aliies....
My only beef with World War II is it caused the Imperialist countries to be inundated with Muslim refugees who are offended both by the freedoms Europeans have and mention of the Holocaust. [The Netherlands: Dutch East Indies, France: Morocco,Tunisia and Algeria and Britain: India and Palestine]. That's what you get for Imperialism guys. The question is what are you going to do about it? Are you next going to give up your precious freedoms because they too are offensive to Muslims?
To Ol' archconservative Pat, Deft and Dextrous Nicky and the Rightly Dishonourable UK Minister of Education: may all your teeth fall out the day before Thanksgiving.
I've seen saner people in mental hospitals.

“She was going to go picnicking with Mr. Parnell”?
The Weimar Constitution tried to remedy this contradiction by making the Chancellor the only person who could wield dictatorial power and the President as the only person who could grant it.
In the US today we have a panel of nine judges who literally hold the power of life and death without review, but who are dependent upon the president and senate to nominate and confirm them in their power.
In the Weimar Constitution this division between appointment and office was supposed to operate as a check.
“Pat Buchanan is not “archconservative”. He is an antisemitic Nazi-sympathizing dhimmi.”
Amem. My punch-in-the-face-upon-sight-list are:
1. Jane Fonda
2. Pat Buchanon
3. Jimmy Carter, depending if it is a federal crime or not.
4. Michael Moore
Strangely, they all hate Israel.
right on...Third Ruffian...
Harry Reid is #1 on my punch-in-the-face-upon-sight-list. Something about the guy gives me violent impulses.
I can’t disagree. It’s a highly subjective list.
I would probably just ignore Dingy Harry. Strikes me as the kind of guy who would get off on being punched.
Buchanan is a lot more likely to be correct than you.
I say this having read Buchanan’s calmly reasoned book and then gotten a short ways into your hysterical essay where you call his work “excrement”. Reading after that wasn’t worth my time.
sociopaths are also very calm. the attempted extermination of two entire ethnic groups, an entire religion and two entire lifestyles...coupled over all with the deaths of twenty million people doesn’t lend itself to calm.
As Buchanan’s villian Sir Winston Churchill pointed out, “if Hitler invaded Hell I would say a kind word for the Devil”. Maybe I just knew too many decent people with those hateful tatoos.
Ever taken a hard look at Bin Laden’s face? It just radiates peace and calm.

beg your pardon...Hitler did run for the presidency...he got about 1/3 of the votes. Hindenburg won. If pat buchanan called this a misstatyement he’d be skewed alive.
