I thought you might find this article interesting.

You read The Ominous Parallels, correct? Unfortunately, I still have mine in the queue sitting on my shelf.

Nuremberg was exactly what came to mind when I listened to the "memorial" service. It was absolutely frightening!

Maybe the DNC can hire Speers' son and put the coup de grace on their Goebbles like propaganda operation.

The GOP has nobody but itself to blame, their failure to effectively utilize propaganda like the DNC does is just as dangerous to the security of this nation as the jackass party.

Biggest difference here is the 2nd Amendment -- and we conservatives are mostly the ones who are armed.

"Everyone should have an assault rifle, 10,000 rounds of ammunition, and couple of automatic pistols and a really large caliber revolver or two" Bump!

Paranoia, but that doesn't mean it's untrue. With the news media, the supposed watchdogs of democracy, fully on the side of the liberals, and indeed acting as the mouthpiece for the Democrat party, anything really is possible.

So, if Wellstone is their Horst Wessel and Carville is their Goebbels, then who is their Adolph Hitler, eh?

Actions of the hyperactive Democrats at the Wellstone "Memorial" are enough to convict them of inhuman, insenstive offenses without critics using hyperbole of this sort. Comparing the rally to Nuremberg is serious enough, but potraying them as "kill you in the death camp" nazis only serves to paint conservatives as paranoid whackos.

It isn't paranoia if they really are out to get you.

Besides, I would rather be a bit paranoid and be prepared than be complacent and get caught off guard.

I was originally going to say "Great Title!", and then, "this is going a bit too far", but though I still think the latter I also think about items such as our proto-"re-education camps" (aka mandated "sensitivity training," if you step over the line and say something officially disapproved) and the extensive changes in American society I've seen in my own lifetime...

A couple of examples. Two pages from a high-school yearbook of mine carry the following headings:
At Weekly Meetings the Christian Youth Club Practices Christian Ideals
and
The Hi-Y Club Helps Promote Christian Character
Imagine the howls those titles, much less the groups themselves, would bring today. (In terms of my age, it's still years before I expect to be a grandfather; this yearbook is not that old.)

For the past decade and a half since I first saw this quote, I've felt an affinity for what the speaker experienced in the (linked) quote from the book They Thought They Were Free.

As the speaker says of himself, he's seen it coming and yet... he denies it and remains silent, because the time is not right. Nobody is listening, nobody acts, there is never a time to act. And so things continue to get worse and we've not begun to plumb the depths of what could, or will, happen here.

"1984" is probably the best vision of our future. (My copy has gone walkabout, how does it end? "And he loved Big Brother."?)

Slick and the hildabeast hand out the marching orders.

I have always had my doubts that Hitler was the brain behind the nazi party. History suggests that he was just a figure head of sorts. The true evil of the party was below the surface. So, it is my opinion that there doesn't need to be a "hitler" equivilent. Anyone will do when enough hatred has been accumulated.

I have been saying this for some time.

Mercifully, I only followed the Wellstone Parteitag by FR thread. I do not think I could watch history repeat itself like this. The author gets a tad dramatic and is unduly pessimistic: Conservatives are not stupid enough to hand over their firearms. But still, the Wellstone Hitlerjugend affair opened up the eyes.

Remember 1984 by George Orwell? Remember the Minute of Hate? That's what that was. All dressed up in a whole arena singing Love Train and wild adulation for the Hillbilly Fuhrer and his consiglieres and capos regimes.

What you saw there was an undercurrent of hate. They couldn't even be decent to Trent Lott, whose record of ineffectuality should have made him a hero to the assembled Party Faithful. They booed him. He had come to pay his respects to a fellow Senator and they booed him.

This is the Party that Clinton built. Once, in the eighties, they were the party of Tip O'Neill, Jim Wright, and ineffectual if corrupt liberalism. Then they made a pact with the Devil, and Bill Clinton won two elections for them. He taught them to lie, he taught them to steal, he taught them to cheat, and he showed them that they could beat the rap.

Dishonesty pays. The Democrats learned well. They tossed aside common decency in favor of the Fuhrerprinzip, and this is what we are faced with.

However, I do not fear them. We have our firearms and do not intend to give them up. Also, they do not own half the population. They do own the allegiance of about a fourth of the population with the other fourth belonging to us. It's that other fifty percent that's up for grabs.

However, there is a tide in human affairs. People like the Clintons and the McAuliffes ALWAYS overreach. They cannot do otherwise. Bush understands this, which is why the populace as a whole admires the man and has chosen to stick with him. He doesn't overreach, and has chosen to deal with Democrats who are willing to deal with him, such as Breaux and Zell Miller.

But do not forget this incident, no matter what the outcome of the election. Fascism is on the march, and we'd best be alert about it.

Be Seeing You,

Chris

Those fascist bastards did not try the Kristal Nacht routine because we are an armed nation. They would have died in wholesale lots.

Those poor Jew people who suffered under the club swinging window breakersw had no arms nor much will to use them. We all know how that worked out

I know what you mean. The stage is set and we all have our parts to play. I believe we are at a serious cross roads in our country. I used to be the director of CAndlelighters (parents of children with cancer). Anyway there was this boy about 10 years old and a couple of months before he died, he started to wear this shirt with a picture of a dragon slaying a knight with the words "sometimes the dragon wins". After this display those words came flooding into my mind. I am afraid we have some very hard times ahead for us.

"Everyone should have an assault rifle, 10,000 rounds of ammunition, and couple of automatic pistols and a really large caliber revolver or two"

Great minds think alike bump.

Interesting to note how that image of torchlit Nazi rallies seems to have struck many folks at the same time. It's starting to become the dominant meme for the Democrats.

The more they show their true faces, the more their party deserves the name of Democratic National Socialists.

Should they manage to lie, cheat or steal their way to power, it won't be long before the killing starts.
