Vanity - Conservatives are the new Jews

[Scythian]

I can't help but wonder how close we truly are to a new holocaust. I have been watching the media coverage on the NY Car Bomber and they clearly are in support of his actions. Not only that, but rather than talk about the true issue of islamic terrorism they use are enemies action's to demonize the very group who is trying to actually stop thier actions, and by that I mean the conservative right and the tea partiers.

To be against the government, or in thier minds Obama, is to be inherently evil. Even now there is a large portion of the population that even knowing it wasn't the right still believe somehow the right casued it. Conservatives are seen as holding back some new found world unity. Talk on major networks come dangerously close to demanding our voices be silenced, and silenced in a sort of dangerous way.

I'm sure the Jews just before WWII could sense this very same thing but they never thought things would happen as they did. I think we are in that same point in history, where upon in the drop of a dime, we will be depicted as the filthy rats in the WWII progaganda posters. While we are living the same as we did before (for now) the constitution has been discarded and there is little recourse.

I had an ominous feeling about this last night as I watched some of the media coverage, I felt like a Jew before WWII might have felt, however, we have the hindsight of history to make things more clear. Things could change very quickly, and I feel that are going to, a few truck bombs planted or simply carried out by nuts on the left (the NY bomber was a democrat you know) and then blamed on the right, the tea party, Sarah Palin's cross hairs and then to even have a conservative bumper sticker will incite violence again you by the left who hates us like the devil himself hates, I can feel it coming, can you?

The new “resistance paradigm” has to get away from the “hole up in the compound” mentality.

Think Henry Bowman. Engage the enemy on YOUR terms, not theirs.

[Buckeye McFrog]

Yes, I Converted for the Jokes....

[Little Ray]

I don't think so.
Jews weren't armed and capable of waging high and low intensity guerrilla warfare. They also didn't make up a substantial portion of the Armed Forces.

Great post. thanks

[Celerity]

Thank you for the post. Real eye-opener.

To see that even those in the Baha`i meeting were pulled in by the SAME rhetoric used against them some few years back is astounding. I thought all Jews kept this memory fresh in their minds.

[wastedyears]

I’m familiar with Henry Bowman. I had to special order it.

[Scythian]

Thanks for the recommendation, we’re going to watch it with our kids now, maybe we’ll get lucky and our kids wont turn us in ... But seriuosly thank you

[MrB]

Unfortunately, I will not be able to re-read that book due to my “new creation” state since I first read it.

When it gets some heavy editing, I might pick it up again.

[wastedyears]

What do you mean?

[Egregious Philbin]

I think your analogy is insulting to every victim of the Holocaust. It is cartoonish at best, possibly obscene, to compare your experience to that of a Jew in WWII Germany. Like the flipside of this, calling opponents "Nazis," the analogy demeans the real tragedy itself.

Victimhood has really taken hold here, which shocks me.

[GOPJ]

I am not saying Conservatives would ever suffer the horror the Jews did, but to see the hate on the faces of the left, reminds me of the feeling toward Jews and how they were hated...

You're right about liberal hatred... we all see it on their faces and in their pronouncement. These are scary times.

[Hardraade]

Too much insanity, the system will never get right again without massive bloodshed. The herd needs thinned.

Just a small example of what is really taking place: New York Daily News, headline and reader comment:

Forensic evidence points to the possibility that whoever planted the Times Square car bomb has links to
foreign terrorists, sources said Monday.

Ahhh The failed Bush presidency.. the Right's gift to
America that just keeps giving and giving.. and taking and taking and taking and taking....
Many on the Right aren't satisfied with having foisted Bush on us, they want to finish us off by foisting Sarah Palin on us next....
She will claim to be qualified because she can see her big toe sticking our of her sandals... (or something like that)

Report Offensive Post

I guess, as a Jew, first I was persecuted as not being quite white enough; now I’ll be persecuted as being just one of the whites. Either way, I recognize what’s happening.

That’s why the media is forever gushing with stories about the eventual demographic of whites being a minority in the United States in 2050, or 2065, or whenever. That’s the point when real persecution can begin.

God, that’s gloomy.

We're all starting to feel it... the thing about the bomb in New York and the palpable disappointment the MSM felt when it couldn't be pinned on a conservative was so depressing. I feel defeated.

[Scythian]

I mean no offense, I know what happened to the jews was beyond horrible, my mind cannot even fathom it, but what makes you think what is about to happen cannot be 10 times worse? Are you so sure about that, you might not be in a few years ... I am very pro Israel by the way.

[my_pointy_head_is_sharp]

The Left is creating a dangerous situation by constantly vilifying the Right, calling us nazis and right-wing domestic terrorists, and racists. Say something often enough and it sticks, even though it’s not true. The Left knows this. It must be one of Alinsky’s tactics (which I haven’t read).

[MrB]

It had some nasty, gross, and gratuitous crap in it.
I liked the history, and the real story line,
but some stuff I could just do without,
and I won’t pollute my “eye gate” with it again.

[SJackson]

IMO you’re overdoing it. Unlike the Jews of Europe, conservatives aren’t a small minority, America isn’t the Reich even with Obama in the White House, and you can leave, they couldn’t.

[SJackson]

You are free to think of yourself as a victim if you like. I prefer not to. The only Jews that THIS conservative will mimick are the ones who fought the Nazis in the Warsaw ghetto.

Thanks, most feel the same way.
