Roger Ebert is nothing if he isn't a knee-jerk leftist, absolutely without a single original political or cultural thought in his head and his latest meandering post on the Sun-Times hosted Roger Ebert's Journal is a perfect example. His piece is titled "Ten things I know about the mosque" but it doesn't seem like there really are ten things nor are they all about the mosque. After reading his wandering post one is tempted to believe that the only reason he posted the thing was to find an excuse to attack Sarah Palin, someone that has nothing to do with...

Welcome to the re-election campaign of Democratic Congresswoman Debbie Halvorson. From Jim Hoft: "Vile protestors with Nazi signs were caught on film returning to Rep. Debbie Halvorson's office this week after protesting in front of Americans for Prosperity offices in Chicago." Not only did the Nazi sign-carrying protesters include "her" staffers - people you and I pay as federal workers - but these Nazi's included Anna Markowski, Jim Hoft reported. Who? From Jim Hoft: "It looks like Anna Markowski was not only a regional director for Obama, but was also an OOS Volunteer Coordinator." [link at URL] "Another one of...

Dem Congresswoman’s Supporters Participate in ‘Palin-As-Hitler’ Rally Posted By Larry O'Connor On September 17, 2010 @ 1:23 pm In Congress, Midterm Elections, Politics, Tea Party | 108 Comments A video showing protesters outside an Americans For Prosperity event has surfaced on the internet. It shows the protestors with signs depicting Sarah Palin and Glenn beck with Hitler mustaches and the label “Naz-Tea Party” over their pictures. Also depicted as Hitler is GOP candidate Adam Kinzinger running against Rep. Debbie Halvorson (IL-D) in the 11th District in Illinois. As protests go, it’s a bit limp and poorly attended, but the offensive...

KCBS reporter Doug Sovern almost literally ran into gubernatorial candidate Jerry Brown while on a jog in Oakland earlier this week, and the chance encounter gives people a glimpse of why Brown earned the sobriquet “Governor Moonbeam” in his previous two terms from 27 years ago. Sovern asked Brown about Meg Whitman’s campaign to best him for his old job, and Brown engaged in a bizarre, hypocritical rant that wound up with Brown comparing Whitman to Nazi propaganda minister Josef Goebbels: I asked him if he intended to debate Meg Whitman, once she locked up the Republican nomination for governor...

"Family Guy" creator Seth MacFarlane has compared a tough new immigration law in Arizona to those of Nazi Germany. MacFarlane, whose irreverent animated TV comedies have themselves provoked controversy, said the Arizona law was more shocking than anything he had done on television. "It's too much. It's kind of a slap in the face, it's not the way to handle it...Nobody but the Nazis ever asked anybody for their papers," MacFarlane told Reuters Television in an interview on Thursday. "Walking down the street, a cop can come up to you and say 'May I see your papers?' -- I think...

Dallas-Fort Worth sports columnist likens our patriotism to Nazi Germany An American sports columnist gets a bizarre Nazi flashback in Vancouver By Cam Battley, Canwest News Service March 2, 2010 It took the investigative skills of intrepid Fort Worth Star-Telegram sports columnist Gil LeBreton to uncover the ugly truth. Like Edward R. Murrow in pre-Second World War Vienna and London, Mr. LeBreton put his personal safety at risk to file a brave report from the turbulent city of Vancouver. Sure, Canadians seem multicultural, friendly and good-natured on the surface. But that's just what they want you to think. Dig a...

Anybody inclined to laugh off the current Tea Bag Movement as just a passing fancy involving a few isolated kooks had better guess again. Analyze what was said at the group's recent convention where Sarah Palin regaled her audience along with the series of preceding rallies cheer led by Sean Hannity, Rush Limbaugh and others and a disturbing trend surfaces. These Teabaggers hold some discomforting points in common with the Brownshirts of Germany's pre-Third Reich period. Many from the progressive movement in Germany during that period laughed off the appearance of "a funny looking little man with a mustache" along...

They call themselves the Worldwide Loyalty Team. Among some employees, they are known as the Apple Gestapo, a group of moles always spying in headquarters and stores, reporting directly to Jobs and Oppenheimer. Here's how they hunt people down."You may want to know about their Worldwide Loyalty Team," Tom told me recently in an email. I read what he had to say. It felt like a description of the Gestapo, without the torture and killing part.Tom never lived in Nazi Germany, back in the time when the Geheime Staatspolize had the power to get into any house or any office,...

Linguist and political activist Noam Chomsky criticizes right-wing media outlets, which he describes as delivering a message of paranoia and economic populism comparable to Nazis during the Weimar Republic. "There were people with real grievances," says Chomsky. "The Nazis gave them an answer."

HITLER QUOTES REVEAL OBAMA and REGIME 1 Make the lie big, make it simple, keep saying it, and eventually they will believe it 2 How fortunate for leaders that men do not think.” 3 All propaganda has to be popular and has to accommodate itself to the comprehension of the least intelligent of those whom it seeks to reach.” 4 “He alone, who owns the youth, gains the future.” 5 By the skillful and sustained use of propaganda, one can make a people see even heaven as hell or an extremely wretched life as paradise. 6 “It is always more...

Democrats manufactured the story that protestors at town hall meetings were carrying Nazi flags. Obama policies seem to be more closely aligned with the policies of Nazism, so a comparison of the two is necessary. Among the key elements of Nazism were Racism, Eugenics, leader principle, Government control of the industry, and of course moral relativism. http://www.wordiq.com/definition/Nazism. Those are also the principles of Obama's plan for a "better America" . The shared connection of racism speaks for itself. Both megalomaniacs, Hitler and Obama, are racists. Hitler, (who possibly was Jewish) hated Jews. Obama who clearly is partially white expressed his...

... Scott groused to the movie crowd that in America, unlike other countries, local curriculum content is set by - gasp - local school boards. Scott would like science curricula in every town and burg set by a national organization. Interestingly, Scott may have been milder than some of her colleagues. One panelist, Jon Amiel, who is currently making a movie on Darwin, compared those who deny evolution to those who deny that the Holocaust occurred. Great. Think for yourself, and you're a Holocaust denier. By the way, I looked up some promotional material for Amiel's movie, which is entitled,...

Why is it that in descriptions of the words and activities of Rush Limbaugh, it is not pointed out the obvious similarity of Limbaugh and Adolph Hitler. Rush knows exactly what he has started. Do you remember how overbearing, intimidating and feared Sen. Joseph McCarthy became before his crudities and chilling attacks on patriotic citizens was stopped? The rise of Hitler came about through use of the same strident, rancorous and dangerous appeal to a populace who had suffered military defeat and in times of embarrassment for their loss of economic power – how the Germans suffered because of inflation...

David Klinghoffer of the anti-evolution Discovery Institute has an opinion column in the Jerusalem Post, attacking Jewish groups like the ADL for protesting against Pope Benedict’s reinstatement of Holocaust-denying Bishop Richard Williamson. Klinghoffer calls it “whining:” The wages of whining. But the real purpose of Klinghoffer’s column is to attempt to redirect Jewish anger toward the Discovery Institute’s main target: the theory of evolution... But Klinghoffer’s false equivalence is even more thoroughly destroyed by the fact that the Nazis banned Darwin’s books:...

Between the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month of 1918 and the dawn hours of September 1,1939, there was time enough to birth a new generation in England and on the continent and to forget every lesson learned in the mud and blood of Flanders and Passchendaele. And so were the English, French, and we Americans duped in 1933. Or were we all? Did we not seek to be duped? Churchill read Mein Kampf and so did others. Why was he nearly alone in taking a lesson from it? What is it in men that encourages...

Obama’s “Truth Squad?” Missouri public officials—law enforcement officials—pursuing those they believe may have “lied” or said something “misleading” about Neo? Free Republic has more, so I won’t repeat their brilliancy on the subject. One of their threads also provides a link to a news video where two of the MO officials promise to go after anyone “defaming” Obama. How can anyone see this and not break Godwin’s law? Pretend for a minute that such threats aren’t meaningless and puerile. Imagine also that they came from Republicans. Then take a shot of the hard alcoholic beverage of your choice (say, Patron)...

Contact Recent forays into Ramesh Ponnoru’s “Right Matters” forum over at the Washington Post online reveals the need for an update to Godwin’s Law. (You know—whoever brings up Nazism first loses the argument.) A prototypically knee-jerk liberal over there (“All conservatives are racist, sexist, bigot homophobes…) asserts that labeling Obama a socialist immediately sucks all credibility out of one’s argument. Fine. I’ll grant that Obama may or may not be a socialist—it is a broad-brush term to describe his policies—and that one needs to be more precise in how one portrays the change he apparently believes in. (And I call...

State Representative Jim McReynolds previewed the 2009 legislative session at Friday's First Friday Chamber luncheon, with the hot topics going into the biennial madhouse listed as the I-69/Trans-Texas Corridor, the growing issue of water supply, and the battle over the top 10 percent rule that allows Texas high school students to be admitted to any state college if they graduate in the top 10 percent of their class. According to McReynolds, the legislators are "not too happy" with the Texas Department of Transportation, which has been under fire for its proposed I-69/TTC plans. "This (the I-69/TTC) is something we never...
