Believe it or not, many of our nation’s voting public believe that it is conservatives who most remind them of that age old boogieman, Adolf Hitler and the Nazi party of World War II. This has happened in part due to the poor education system that our nation now enjoys, but the rhetoric of our political system is also to blame. Have you not heard our evening newscasters repeating vicious catch phrases about President Bush, being no better than Hitler himself? This was reinforced by the repeated airing of posters showing pictures of President Bush with the addition of the prototypical Hitler mustache.
Note: Did you know the Hitler mustache and Nazi salute were quite popular until the rise of Adolf Hitler and the beginning of World War II?
Despite the common belief of conservatives being no better than Nazis, it is much more apt to denote the commonalities between the current administration and those of the Nazi party itself. To begin with the Nazi party was in fact a socialist party and its name if translated into English, denotes this. But the similarities go farther than that. It is my belief that a case can be made that we are only a step or two from teetering over the edge to the same form of fascism that the Germans of the 2nd world war were infamous for.
First, both Hitler and our current President were popularly elected with a mandate for change. In both cases, that mandate was to change the program of business as usual and effect real and lasting change. But that alone doesn’t really mean much, so let’s review the 2nd point of similarity. In both cases the soon to be elected leaders mandated a need for a new civilian organization whose organization and equipment levels were to be as good as if not better than those of the established military. The purpose in our case is to help assist in the maintaining of security throughout the nation. In our case, a bill was introduced on 7-29-2009, (HR 675) which was to provide for the legal basis of such a force. As of now, the bill has not been passed, but if the Congress reverts back to one that is controlled by the Democrats, who knows.---read more here----
