Hogan's Heroes: Have Americans become like Nazis? Nah
Edited on Wed Feb-09-05 06:18 PM by helderheid
OK try this http://tinyurl.com/3ncrc

I love Jane Stillwater. Excellent. Here's just a taste:

" Our leaders feed us outrageous lies like Iraq has WMDs, Social Security is in trouble, the voting machines weren't tampered with, Saudi Arabia is our friend, unemployment is at a new low, our treasury isn't bankrupt, Tom DeLay didn't commit ethics violations, Gulf War Syndrome doesn't exist, Bush actually won the 2000 and 2004 elections, Palestine isn't a reinactment of the Warsaw Ghetto, liberals are the enemy, outsourcing is a good thing, flipping burgers is a manufacturing job, the dollar hasn't dropped 40 % in the last four years and SYRIA is the cause of all our grief. SYRIA? As Hitler used to say, "No one believes small lies but tell Big Lies and everyone will believe you because they simply can't grasp the fact that anyone would lie that outrageously." And we, the Queens of Denial, swallow all these Big Lies and beg for more. Does that make us Nazis? Nah."

4. It works! thanks,..
It was a good read, very on point and almost entertaining. But I have to say that it can really only be used for preaching to the choir...Without links/sources, a lot of the assertions she makes wouldn't be accepted by the skeptical (I have hit a point where everything I read I want to forward to a few people I am slowly turning over to our side).

KEEP HOPE ALIVE

3. I'm sure Boxer appreciates a Jazeera referral (not). (n/t)
Not to be dismissive, but I see Al Jazeera as another side of the neo-con coin, and I try not to let them manipulate me either.

That having been said, we're definitely undergoing Nazification.
