Thank you for posting that link - I’ve been wanting to see it ever since I heard about the exchange.
I love Megyn Kelly - she doesn’t pull punches. I would have liked to hear them get into the whole NPR thing though. And you’re right - it is getting scary.
I’m currently reading a book about the rise of Nazi Germany and the messianic fervor that Hitler seemed to enjoy despite the monstrous things he did even early on, and the mentality found among the Germans is eerily similar to what we see for Obama (although the book, being 15 yrs old, hardly seeks to compare the two).
The premise is that the Germans operated out of stark fear over a terrible economy, extremely high inflation and job losses, and desired a savior. And once they had him, they didn’t want to let go of the idea of him, hence their willingness to excuse or actively support his behavior.
I don’t think we’re anywhere near 1933 Germany as a country in that I don’t think Obama would ever be able to pull off such wide-sweeping control of the masses, but it’s a chilling read nonetheless.
A major difference: Hitler came to national prominence after the Germans had endured hard times and were desperate for change.
Obama has assumed the presidency just as things are starting to get worse for the average person. If we're lucky, the average person will associate him with the economic changes.
Why not? Obama already has the complete complicity of the lunatic mainstream media to cover for him and act as his propoganda mouthpiece. The demoRATs are actively engaged in efforts to re-enact the Fairness Doctrine and effectively shut down conservative talk radio. Once socialist-fascist-communist usurper Obama and the demoRATs controll all media, it would be an easy stretch for him to continue to fan & control the messianic fervor of his idiot supporters & ignorant masses.
