11. " We might expect it of someone like Clinton, but not conservative President Bush." also from the
prison planet article.

5. Uh, but Hitler said it in Germany in German
Edited on Sun Oct-28-07 04:10 PM by truedelphi
He also backed it up by seeing that the working class had health care that they had never experienced before, two week vacations were guaranteed, and life for many initially became better
(as long as they could postpone thinking about what was to come)

George has done none of these things. You'd think people would be in the streets and especially marching back in forth in front of the MSM media chains.

But the one thing that has occurred is that there are record numbers of suicides each month since George took over from Clinton.

6. I'd have to see the video and even then I'd be skeptical
They are pretty stupid but I don't think they are stupid enough to quote Adolph word for word.

18. Link still not coming up.
All I see is a box with a little red "x" in it. Looks like you're trying to post an image, not a link.

20. a link is a webpage where this came from, preferably the words, not just that image.
Where, when, is he supposed to have said this. Doing a quick search I see this showing up several places with no one able to verify that he actually said this.

8. i don't doubt that * said it
I have no reason to doubt that * said those very words, but the graphic would be even more powerful if it gave dates for each quote, and a context for *'s rendition of this authoritarian bullshit.

Good find nonetheless Jamnt.

-app

(i'm not enough of a historian to give verification of either quote, but my friend Google provided this link to a 2002 article by Doug Thompson that references Hitler saying it: http://www.commondreams.org/views02/1121-03.htm)

9. No one can verify the bush part
Because he never said those words in that order.

12. I'm finding....
...that is this a direct quote from Hitler.

There are many sites comparing the Hitler quote to similar quotes said by Bush,
and also his fear mongering and use of "threats" to control the public.

I don't see this by Bush anywhere, but I'll keep looking.

If he didn't say that exact quote, I'd bet anyone a dozen Krispy Kremes
that he said something very similar.

15. Bush might not have said those words verbatim, but he certainly
has come close. If he said it in his next speech, no one would blink.

The real surprise is the Hitler -- that's Bush's rhetoric....

17. "protecting the homeland"...a Hitler phrase...
This article suggests that Bush used the phrase "protect the homeland", and
that this phrase was often used by Hitler.

---------------

Bush uses the SAME phrase Hitler used in press conference
By Jackson Thoreau

WASHINGTON — In only his 17th press conference on Monday, Bush appeared to admit that not even the people around him are very smart, while giving another quip that didn’t make grammatical sense.

"I'm going to find somebody who knows something about intelligence," Bush said, "and capable and honest and ready to do the job."

On the budget, he said, "We will submit a budget that fits the times. It will provide every tool and resource to the military, will protect the homeland, and meet other priorities of the government."

"Protect the homeland" is the SAME phrase that Hitler used when he proposed the creation of the Gestapo in Nazi Germany. Hitler said, "An evil exists that threatens every man, woman and child of this great nation. We must take steps to ensure our domestic security and protect our homeland."

This is from 2004, so we may have to add a few.

23. wow
as I have a passion for quotes, I went looking to see if I could verify this. They do both sound valid.
So far, as yet I could not find the exact quotes. I have often thought that KKKarl used Hitlers playbook. Here are some of Hitlers quotes- they do sound like what this administration uses.

“Make the lie big, make it simple, keep saying it, and eventually they will believe it”
Adolf Hitler quote





“How fortunate for leaders that men do not think.”
Adolf Hitler quote




“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.”
Adolf Hitler quote


“It is always more difficult to fight against faith than against knowledge.”
Adolf Hitler quote

“Demoralize the enemy from within by surprise, terror, sabotage, assassination. This is the war of the future.”
Adolf Hitler quote

I could go on and on with Hitlers quotes- they are all chilling and have a strong resemblance to Bush and his goons.





Ironically, I found a very profound quote by Albert Camus, which almost describes the state of our nation at this time.



“It is a well-known fact that we always recognize our homeland when we are about to lose it.”
Albert Camus quotes (French Novelist, Essayist and Playwright, 1957 Nobel Prize for Literature

I hope that our country will regain its sense of greatness with this next election.
