and asked if I thought I should be tried for war crimes for my columns in The Post supporting our military.

My answer would have been, "Oh yes, please!". Things like this eventually come back to embarrass the left, when they realize that unlike themselves in their ivory towers, most Americans actually do support the troops.

Nancy Pelosi is a shining star of speech suppression. Ms. “Fairness Doctrine” doesn’t want open debate or a vote on anything she and her masters don’t like.

(and asked if I thought I should be tried for war crimes for my columns in The Post supporting our military.)

My answer to this idiot would have been yeah as soon as you think that you should be tried for treason for not supporting the military....

If anyone in the Bush Administration is found guilty of “war crimes”, I’d be willing to stand between him/her and the arresting entity and pay any price for doing so.

Dubya is MY president. Nobody will touch him if I can stop them.

MoveOn isn't new - it's just Pravda with poor punctuation.

Now that's a great tagline...

I find it quite amusing when the left calls us on the right NAZI and equates conservatism to Hitler and the NAZIs.

NAZI is an acronym in German for National Socialist Party.
They belong to Nancy Pelosi’s side of the political debate not the conservative side.

[Tzimisce]

Yep.

RP: The more I think about that proposed war-crimes trial, the more excited I get. If we could just delay it until President Obama invades Pakistan, he and I could share the prisoners' docket together.

I laughed out loud reading that one. Good article by Mr. Ralph.

Fascism is about control of people and collectivizing of resources.

Dhimmirats all the way.

Maybe we should charge him with war crimes advocating socialist despotism in America like all liberals.

[mainestategop]

Fascism is about control of people and collectivizing of resources.

That's exactly the definition of a liberal.

[2 Kool 2 Be 4-Gotten]

The extreme left loves to pretend it stands for freedom. It never has and never will. From the Reign of Terror in Paris onward, its core agenda has been the tyranny of egomaniacal intellectuals.

Great quote - many cite the example of Germany in the 30’s or Russia in 1917 but today’s environment feels to me like we’re heading for France in 1789-1792.

Libs turn purple when you tell them that they’re fascists.

It’s fun, give it a try.

[mainestategop]

well... if the truth hurts...

NAZI is an acronym in German for National Socialist Party.

Actually the NAZI Party's real name was the NDSAP, or Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei, which translates to National Socialist German Workers' Party

[tpanther]

I was watching PBS last night, and between shows (I think it was antiques roadshow and history detectives) they slipped in an infomercial about Kerry getting swiftboated.

And with a straight face they’ll whine about the fairness doctrine!

[mainestategop]

What are they whining about? They are getting free air time on NPR and PBS and we are being forced to pay for it!

Thanks for the correction. Where did the acronym NAZI come from?
