I agree totally. I have mentioned here that the Dumocrats are Fascists at their black hearts. People refuse to take a hard and painful look at the facts. Just like before 911, the it can't happen here crowd merrily live their lives in a cloud of denial. The tendencies of Americans to slip back into that complacency is what the Fascist Dums are hoping for.

If you listen to the scum that is the Dum candidates all you hear are flat out lies. I don't remember if it was Hitler or one of his propagandist, that said (maybe it was the commies.Lenin et al) the bigger the lie the better.

Until the Democrats start killing political enemies, the Nazi stuff is over the top. Just because the Democrats overuse and abuse Nazi analogies doesn't mean we should, despite their stronger idealogical ties to Nazis. But I agree, the Doctor Shopping case is real weak. Doctor shopping only applies if you don't disclose your other prescriptions to the doctor, and for doctors in the same office, that isn't Rush's legal problem, but the Doctors. Also, for different ailments, it is not clear that the law applies either, so the Dems are on really weak ground on the case against Rush.

Did you do well in the market this year?

If so, then maybe you can afford to make a donation to Free Republic!

So we're the only patriots, the only ones who care for freedom and Democrats all akin to the guy with the moustache who murdered 6 million Jews and would have nuked the US if he had the technology. Was this REALLY written by a Republican? It sounds like a fund raising letter for Democrats. THE SITUATION: Both political parties now jettison their principles to defend "their" people and supporter and go after "their" enemies and foes. When folks on the other side accused Republicans of acting like Nazis on occasion we screamed bloody murder -- in fact, a book name Slander harped on this very same subject. But if we use the worst political dirty word to describe people with whom we disagree we're on The Side of Truth. The case can be made on the other side for what's happening to Rush. SOLID reporting recently indicated that this law is NOT used often. That is the way to combat this -- not for us to accuse Democrats of being Nazis when Democrats accuse us of the same thing.
We can't complain if we do to them what they do to us. Then if we do it to THEM they have the RIGHT to keep doing it to us.
Neither of our two patriotic political parties are like the Nazis. PERIOD.

Political Prosecutions: The Nazi Tactic Used By Democrats

Use of the analogy to the Nazis in the title is justified.

I'll say! I've noticed this for years. Ever since I started paying attention, toward the end of High School.

I have three Physicians, a General Practicioner, an Ophthlmalogist and a Sleep Specialist - am I "doctor shopping". My first wife went through more than six doctors before she found one who could effectively deal with her rheumatoid arthritis. What a pile of Barbra Streisand.

Long after it served any purpose but political revenge, the Democrat prosecutor indicited Linda Tripp in Maryland on wiretapping charges. Two things make it obvious that it was a political prosecution, the strength of the case and who called for the indicitment. Both of which the media gave very little coverage.

And now comes the Palm Beach Democrat prosecutor. Note that the media gives very little coverage to what doctors were "raided".

People in the media see no difference between their professional positions (reporting the truth) and their political preferences. I think most try to be technically truthful in what they do report, but oh that selective perception.

I think it is fair to say this characteristic is common in every instance where ideology supplants law

[J. L. Chamberlain]

Godwin's Law prov. [Usenet] "As a Usenet discussion grows longer, the probability of a comparison involving Nazis or Hitler approaches one." There is a tradition in many groups that, once this occurs, that thread is over, and whoever mentioned the Nazis has automatically lost whatever argument was in progress. Godwin's Law thus practically guarantees the existence of an upper bound on thread length in those groups. However there is also a widely- recognized codicil that any intentional triggering of Godwin's Law in order to invoke its thread-ending effects will be unsuccessful.
