Good post - thanks.
I think most can see what we're up against - the left is following in the footsteps of the National Worker's Socialist Party, with the blessing of most of the media. History repeats itself.
We live in interesting times.

To: crazyshrink
Being a Nazi was politically correct. They called themselves "The Children of the New Age of World Order" and looked down their noses at everyone else. As Hitler accrued more power, he referred to his critics as "The Dark Forces of Anarchy and Hatred". Anyone who questioned Nazi high-handedness in the German press was branded a "Conservative Reactionary". Joseph Goebbels, minister of communications, proclaimed a "New World Order".
The Nazi reign of terror began with false news reports on the Jews, Bohemians and Gypsies who were said to be arming themselves to overthrow the "New World Order" and Hitler demanded that all good people register their guns so that they wouldn't fall into the hands of "terrorists and madmen". Right wing fanatics of the "Old Order" who protested firearms registration were arrested by the S.S. and put in jail for "fomenting hatred against the Government of the German people".
We should be on lookout for an equivalent Reichstag fire, as it IS coming. it's no longer a matter of if but when.

There is one thing I think that we're learning from all of this.
When Democrats go extreme, they become Socialists.
When Republicans go extreme, they become Fascists.
This has become soberingly apparent to me, as we watched the likes of Chuck Hagel, Arnold Schwarzenneger, Colin Powell, Christopher Buckley, Peggy Noonan, and many more i've not mentioned, operate. Their Fascism has now become open and notorious.

Hitler finally gained a plurality after 10 years only because the Communists were killing millions with genocide famine in Ukraine and other areas.
The height of the genocide/famine was March 1933, just when Hitler was able to take power.
These millions included nearly a million Amish, Mennonite, and other fundamentalist German colonists that settled into the area a hundred years prior.

Like some of us tried to point out during the election, Hitler was a community organizer.

I would respectfully disagree with your comment. Each party going to the extreme is “statism”. I collection of socialism, fascism, communism, and hybrids of more and more gov’t control.
The opposite of statism would be anarchy, i.e. no govt. A republic is much closer to anarchy that any of the aformentioned statist types of gov’t.
The founding fathers knew what they were doing when they created a republic and allowed the states to create a federal branch subject to many checks and balances.
Sadly, the “extremists” have usurped that goal to the point that we now find ourselves at a crossroads. We are forced into making our choices (republic or statist) and face the consequences of the necessary actions needed to choose a direction i.e. revolution or submission to statism.
I personally have chosen being a republic with a gov’t based on the constitution as written and interpreted by out founding fathers. I gave up my long standing membership in the Rep. party after Bush 43 was elected and proceeded to continue to create a more statist path for the USA.
I am a conservative, darn proud of it, and will do what is necessary to protect my country from becoming a statist gov’t.

Genocide was to Hitler as infanticide (abortion) is to Obama and the statists.
I would argue the goals of the two are similar. To create a “master race” based on genetic superiority to help insure that they keep the power and the control.
Infanticide (abortion) supporters will use socialized medicine to help “weed out” those that they choose right after they succeed in “breaking the budget” with the costs of socialized medicine.
