" those that do not remember history are doomed to repeat it" from "into the arms of strangers"
"Although the Nazi Party was never able to claim a majority of German votes, it gained enough support for Adolf Hitler to emerge as Chancellor of the nation in 1933. The political establishment viewed Hitler’s ascension with concern, but generally assumed that the realities of the political system would force him to moderate his views. Yet Hitler, who rose to power within a democratic system, invoked the provisions of the German constitution that permitted the suspension of constitutional protections in emergency circumstances. Ruling by decree, he dismantled the
democratic structure and proclaimed himself Führer (“leader”) of an authoritarian, dictatorial new regime". it can happen here and is.

Rick, you are really paranoid! Do you really belive that the Bush Administration is going to turn our democracy into some kind of dictatorship? That is really stupid! Give up second guessing the Administration! Charlie

I finally believe you are near insanity Rick. First your statement contradicts everything you have ever stated about the intelligence of George. Also Hitler didn't have any terrorists attack his country to cause him to have his beliefs. George is doing what The previous administration didn't have the balls to do after the first attempt to bring down the WTC. It is way past time to worry about P.C. and call life for what it is. Todd

Good point: The Bush haters consistently call him dumb, then they claim he somehow orchestrated a "stolen" election and now this. Also, Rick, I am no German History Buff, but did their "democracy" have the two Party system or any of the Checks and Balances that the American Governmnet employs? Did their "democracy" allow for Free Speech and Freedom of the Press? Did their "democracy" have 120 channels of television which showed the injustices committed against the Jews? Get real. your paranoia is out of hand. Light a cigar, put on some Gene Krupa, and swat a hummingbird for a three pointer...

Sieg Heil

Rick, watch out the IRS will come after you now. Oh that's right that's what the previous administration did to people who disagreed with them. Didn't here you bitch'n then though.

While I agree that nothing is impossible,I believe that our constitution and bill of rights make a repeat of the atrocities of Hitler unlikely. I am simply astounded that an intelligent person could make such a comparison,even as a joke. Eveybody knows that you are a flaming liberal, but, comments like these hurt your credibility. cj

Like posting GWB in a Nazi Uniform a few months back! Charlie

"If this were a dictatorship, it'd be a whole heck of a lot easier, heh-heh heh-heh heh, just so long as I'm the dictator, heh-heh heh huh heh-heh!"

- George W. Bush

Oh no! Rick found the smokin' gun...

no i think it was on a porno site. something about s&m.

Rick, I finally got some hummingbirds in yard today. Three little guys (it has been two weeks since I put the feeders back up). I will smoke a Padron and watch them fly around this afternoon---I hope! Ease up on GWB, he is going to be a really great President! Charlie

Why would you guys even waste your time responding to the drivel of a man who thinks GWB is the antichrist, but supported Clinton and wanted Gore as president?

Great post, we will never convert him to the good side, so let him linger on the left with the Daschles, Gephardts, Gores, Watters and the like! Charlie

sorry JBG, i did not support gore, i supported mccain until the bush people "dirty tricked" him. the rest of your post is true.
char: see how nice you post when you let the hummers mellow you. you sound peaceful.

Rick, using hind-sight as the 20/20 truth serum, and knowing what we know today (Dec 18, 2001), would you prefer your man Ralph Nader and his cast of Consumer Advocates over the Bush Administration? Be specific if you can without burying yourself too deep.

no.

You don't have to use that tone with me... And stop yelling!

Gaiter, the "no" is as good as an admission that we are right in our acessment. Charlie

The left always bitches about people with morals, courage, decency, integrity and honesty. These are attributes the liberal/pinko/socialist hate. They like
ilresponsibility, dishonesty, appeasment and sodomy.
There's no hope for them. They took one trip too many.
