There is a lot of misunderstanding about the birth of the Nazi. First the Nazis were right wing nationalist . Not leftest socialists.
They were supported by the industrial leader ship in Germany . This was done to keep labor unions out , and to keep the cost of running there factories low .
Hitler and the Nazi party created a good side show for the disgruntled masses at the time . Remember Germany had been in a long recession.

I repeat The Nazis were a "right wing" conservative , nationalist , party. They were pro military expansion and supported a fascist regime

Fascism, pronounced /ˈfæʃɪzəm/, is a political ideology that seeks to combine radical and authoritarian nationalism[1][2][3][4] with a corporatist economic system.[5] Scholars generally consider it to be on the far right of the traditional left-right political spectrum.[6][7][8][9][10][11]

Fascists advocate the creation of a single-party state.[12] Fascist governments forbid and suppress openness and opposition to the fascist state and the fascist movement.[13] Fascism opposes class conflict, blames capitalism and liberal democracies for its creation, and accuses communists of exploiting the concept.[14] Fascism fashioned itself as the "complete opposite of Marxian socialism"[15] by rejecting the economic and material conception of history, the fundamental belief of fascism being that human beings are motivated by glory and heroism rather than economic motives, in contrast to the worldview of capitalism and socialism.[15]

In the economic sphere, many fascist leaders have claimed to support a "Third Way" in economic policy, which they believed superior to both the rampant individualism of unrestrained capitalism and the severe control of state socialism.[16][17] This was to be achieved by establishing significant government control over business and labour (Italian fascist leader Mussolini called his nation's system "the corporate state").[18][19] No common and concise definition exists for fascism and historians and political scientists disagree on what should be in any such definition.[20]

Following the defeat of the Axis powers in World War II and the publicity surrounding the atrocities committed during the period of fascist governments, the term fascist has been used as a pejorative word,[21] often referring to widely varying movements across the political spectrum.[22]

You have been talking to "new Nazi"sol again havn't you .

[M. Johnson]

You have been talking to "new Nazi"sol again havn't you .

Is it just you , or is it the entire right wing that want to rewrite the dictionary?

Lets be fair , if we are going to have a conversation , lets not rewrite history , and change the meaning of words.

But if you do , dont blame me if I say you are ignorant .

See I am open minded . and I dont hate Sarah , in fact I love her, in a special way.

The Dems have fascism down cold
Single party state - Dems good, Reps bad, Tea party dangerous
Forbid and suppress openness - They're well on the way to bringing back the "fairness doctrine". Any dissent is responded with ridicule. Palin, Tea party, etc are regularly described as wingnuts. That they might have a valid point is ignored.
Blames capitalism - Has Obama had anything good to say about big business?
Establish government control over business and labor. The government has taken over 2/3rds of car manufacturing. Mandating what banks pay structure should be like. Cap and trade to handle big oil and coal. Health care reform. All said and done, the government is trying to take over 60% of the GDP. Sign check to get control over labor.

And how would you handle the fact that certain states have in the past denied a portion of their population their rights. Would you now decide that your states constitution would trump the US Constitution? How would you deal with the conflict between states rights and the constitution ? Would you like to fight that war of the states again? Interstate transport? I am not trying to bust balls her or be funny. How would it be done? Now if you are a poor state, how do you compete with a rich state? you wont have the subsidies of the rich states any more, but by law you will have to provide services . Not to simple.

Brown shirts were poor inner city uneducated thugs. Most were under 25. Do some research on the Americorps "Volunteers". They fit the same profile. All it would take is for a charismatic leader to organize them for violence and we're right there.

To be clear, I posted within a thread that suggested that comparison, as did you. My posts do not in any way endorse the original premise. Yours, OTOH....

[M. Johnson]

I first made that comparison based on the behavior I observed at rallies and town meeting. Now to be fair I dont think all tea partiers are like that.
But I did notice how many kept their mouths shut when their members were abusing people. They might say they did not know about it.
Certainly the silence of those and Fox news condoned it. I for one dont think the party has a long life span. It is already being taken apart by the power brokers. But then who knows. It is good that people show more interest in how the country is run. But we need to know what is going on , and one voice should not be trusted as having the all the facts. Whether it be the left or the right.

Were you at a tea party rally or a town hall meeting? I went to one of the 1st Tea Parties. No rabid maniacs there. I was one of the youngest ones there, and I'm over 50. It was down right boring. From what I heard, most of the other rallies were much the same. I didn't attend a town hall. My rep was one of those who tried to keep his private. If you look at the press reports, you could see that there were 2 different types at the town halls. The ones who tried to ask a polite question, and the ones who disrupted the meetings when the congressman/senator tried to ignore, baffle with bullshit, or insult the questioner. I'll let you guess who the tea partyers were.

[M. Johnson]

I first made that comparison based on the behavior I observed at rallies and town meeting. Now to be fair I dont think all tea partiers are like that.
But I did notice how many kept their mouths shut when their members were abusing people. They might say they did not know about it.
Certainly the silence of those and Fox news condoned it. I for one dont think the party has a long life span. It is already being taken apart by the power brokers. But then who knows. It is good that people show more interest in how the country is run. But we need to know what is going on , and one voice should not be trusted as having the all the facts. Whether it be the left or the right.

It'd be nice if they all signed a petition. It'd be nice if MSNBC had the ratings that Fox News had. It'd be nice if we had a leader for a President. It'd be nice.........

I for one dont care what MSNBC's ratings are. You see i dont work for them. Obama was elected to lead the executive branch of our government, and that is the job he is trying to do. This is a free democracy ,no King. If that makes you feel uncomfortable, then you will have to HTFU.
Voted , and that was the petition I signed.

Fascists advocate the creation of a single-party state.[12] Fascist governments forbid and suppress openness and opposition to the fascist state and the fascist movement.[13] Fascism opposes class conflict, blames capitalism and liberal democracies for its creation, and accuses communists of exploiting the concept.[14] Fascism fashioned itself as the "complete opposite of Marxian socialism"[15] by rejecting the economic and material conception of history, the fundamental belief of fascism being that human beings are motivated by glory and heroism rather than economic motives, in contrast to the worldview of capitalism and socialism.[15]

In the economic sphere, many fascist leaders have claimed to support a "Third Way" in economic policy, which they believed superior to both the rampant individualism of unrestrained capitalism and the severe control of state socialism.[16][17] This was to be achieved by establishing significant government control over business and labour (Italian fascist leader Mussolini called his nation's system "the corporate state").[18][19] No common and concise definition exists for fascism and historians and political scientists disagree on what should be in any such definition.[20]

The Dems have fascism down cold
Single party state - Dems good, Reps bad, Tea party dangerous
Forbid and suppress openness - They're well on the way to bringing back the "fairness doctrine". Any dissent is responded with ridicule. Palin, Tea party, etc are regularly described as wingnuts. That they might have a valid point is ignored.
Blames capitalism - Has Obama had anything good to say about big business?
Establish government control over business and labor. The government has taken over 2/3rds of car manufacturing. Mandating what banks pay structure should be like. Cap and trade to handle big oil and coal. Health care reform. All said and done, the government is trying to take over 60% of the GDP. Sign check to get control over labor.

As for brown shirts, I think that Americorps fit the bill nicely.

Yes I think you are right about that. Certainly the Social Service community has made itself a pain in the ass. But that is not just the lefts problem.
After all he right demands plenty from the Government. I dont want the government to invade any of our lives. But we have a government , and how can it be productive and meet the need of the populous? To that question , we must ask what society need to be healthy. Is an educated populous necessary? for instance.

Health, education,etc should be handled at the local level, no higher than the state level at worst.

Sounds like Canada to me.

Having been raised in Canada... the longer I live here in the USA, the more I think that, in practical terms, Canada's closer to what the founding fathers intended than the USA is. Strange, ironic, twist of history. In practice (and in contrast to the respective constitutions), Provinces seem to have way more independence from Ottawa, than the States do from Washington. Or so it seems to me, anyways.

There is a lot of misunderstanding about the birth of the Nazi. First the Nazis were right wing nationalist . Not leftest socialists.
They were supported by the industrial leader ship in Germany . This was done to keep labor unions out , and to keep the cost of running there factories low .
Hitler and the Nazi party created a good side show for the disgruntled masses at the time . Remember Germany had been in a long recession.

I repeat The Nazis were a "right wing" conservative , nationalist , party. They were pro military expansion and supported a fascist regime

Fascism, pronounced /ˈfæʃɪzəm/, is a political ideology that seeks to combine radical and authoritarian nationalism[1][2][3][4] with a corporatist economic system.[5] Scholars generally consider it to be on the far right of the traditional left-right political spectrum.[6][7][8][9][10][11]

Following the defeat of the Axis powers in World War II and the publicity surrounding the atrocities committed during the period of fascist governments, the term fascist has been used as a pejorative word,[21] often referring to widely varying movements across the political spectrum.[22]

I was asking Carl.

I was looking forward to him defending Bush, posting a few paragraphs on how bad Democrats are, then telling me I am partisan. Oh... And telling me this a hilarious comedy site, and that some people just don't get that.

Almost forgot that last part.

It doesn't "clearify" that at all. It has the simple question, "Do you miss me yet?". So I answered the question.

Then I asked you the same question, and you strung together some words like "hitler" and "nazis" and the usual incoherent rant that you usually exhale after you've been bogarting the "stupid bong".

Now... Get out the virtual crayons and give me some pictures, bitch.

"needless to say I am very dissappointed in my replacement idol bentweiny "

That's the way it goes, Chirac. One day your my idol, the next just another new nazi. As a farewell gift, do YOU know how I can get Carl to answer a question?

Ben

[M. Johnson]

I,m confused

dont worry , at least you have company in the tea party.

[Carl M]

Are you aware that the Nazis laid railroad tracks to the gates of Auschwitz to facilitate its engine of mass death and murder of over 6 million people? Or can you grasp the idea of 25 million perishing in the gulags -


Hitler destroyed European democracy. His minions persecuted Christians, gassed over six million Jews, and created an entire fascistic creed predicated on anti-Semitism and the myth of a superior race.


perhaps you should read some factual history .

The ideological paralells of "progressives" then and now and where they lead in history are of imore interest --
