1. Unprecedented Deception
What's equally frightening as Palin being shielded from the media is the apathy of the general public. This is the same public that voted for Bush twice. They obviously don't care about qualifications. It's all about personality.

9. Palin is a frontman for the Neocons (Nazi) takeover of the USA
Compare behaviors between Bush administration and Nazi Germany. The similarity is uncanny!

Mobs of young men dressed in identical shirts shouting outside a voting center in Florida to intimidate people to stop a recount.
Mobs of men dressed in identical shirts (brown shirts) stood near voting stations shouting and intimidating people.


Mobs of young republicans are organized by the National Party to make bonfires and burn CD's produced by the Dixie Chicks
Mobs of Brown shirts and Hitler Youth are organized by the Nazi Party to make bonfires and burn books written by those they disagreed with

Members of the Young republicans are shaming academics for saying something they disagreed about.
Members of the Nazi Party would shame academics for saying something they disagreed about.



The FBI being told to stop peace activists flying or boarding aircraft on orders of the White House.
The German authorities were instructed to stop peace activists and other “trouble makers” at airports.


When the US invaded Iraq V.P. Cheney asserted we would be “greeted as liberators”.
When the Nazi's invaded the Rhineland, Nazi propaganda asserted that they would be “greeted as liberators”


Bush Administration using phrases such as we will find terrorists “hiding in their spider-holes”
Nazi's would find their enemies “hiding in their spider-holes”


The Bush administration increased security restrictions at airports. Airport security guards were forcing passengers to drink their own breast milk. Others to drink baby formula in front of all the other passengers
One of Mussolini's intimidation tactics was to force citizens to drink body fluids and emetics in public. The Nazi's followed suit with breast milk and urine in front of the other passengers


2002 Bush created the “Department of Homeland Security” White house spokespeople started referring to the United States as the “homeland” for the first time in history instead of the nation or republic.
1930 Nazi propagandists started to refer to
Germany not as the Nation or Republic but rather “Der Heimat” - “the homeland” Deputy Fuhrer Rudolf Hess Formed a “Department of Homeland Security”


2001 USA Patriot Act let federal officials compel doctors to hand over confidential medical records without a warrant showing probable cause.
1930 German doctors were required to disclose citizens previously private medical records to the state.

2005 Guantanamo prisoners reported seeing the Koran being flushed down toilets.
1938 the Gestapo forced Jews to scrub out toilets with their sacred phylacteries, the tfillin.

Amnesty International reports US interrogators tormented prisoners by playing heavy metal at top volume day and night.
1938 the Gestapo interrogators tormented prisoners by playing music on the radio at top volume day and night.

Iraqi human rights group complained that in 2004 the US forces seized the innocent wives of suspected insurgents and held the women hostage to pressure their husbands to turn themselves in.
In Stalinist Russia, the secret police seized the innocent wives of suspected dissidents and held the women hostage to pressure their husbands to turn themselves in.

After 9/11 National Security Adviser Condoleezza Rice and V.P. Cheney coined a new phrase: America was now on a permanent “war footing” but we were not actually at war.
Nazi leaders said after the Reichstag fire that Germany was now on a “war footing” but were not actually at war. But would remain pertinently on a “war footing”

The Bush White House “embedded” reporters with U.S. Military units in Iraq. Uncritical coverage of the war expanded considerably.
Nazi propaganda officials embedded reporters and camera crews with their armed forces. U.S reporters drove with German units into France.

The Bush administration unloads coffins of dead American soldiers from planes at night and has forbidden photographs being taken of them.
The Nazi's unloaded the coffins of German military dead only at night and no photographs were allowed.

Paid informants having received hundreds of thousands of dollars found a “sleeper cell” in Lodi, California. The two men explained later that they had confessed to the imaginary “sleeper cell” to end the terrifying series of interrogations.

“Sleeper cell” was a term most Americans were unfamiliar with until a TV movie in 2005 Making sure the general population were alerted to the threat made everyone suspicious,
Stalin invented “Sleeper cells” and had paid informants find them among the general public. Stalin said that the US Government was planting the sleepers so that one day they could all rise up and create mayhem

In 2006 a terrorist plot against US bound planes uncovered in London gave the world a much quoted sound bite. “If this had actually happened the world would have stood still”
In 1940 after Hitler had set up his plan for world domination said that if everything happens as planned “the world will hold it's breath”

At first the only people held at Guantanamo Cuba were brown skinned foreigners, in October 2006 that changed and white English speaking prisoners began to appear. They had been charged with treason, espionage, subversion and aiding the enemy. Enemies of the State.
At first the Germans arrested only the Communists and criminals and enemies of the state and placed them in concentration camps. But is was not long before he turned his attention to a group long held as potential spy's and subversives the Jews. Enemies of the State.


2007 Bush had started to criminalize speech in new ways. Journalists who write articles criticizing the Bush Administration are being arrested and released after a warning, editors are being treated the same way. Journalists are subject to arrest, torture, and trial by tribunal outside judicial system
1938 Germany started to crack down on anyone who did not agree with the Nazi philosophy. Journalists were arrested and released after a warning, editors were treated the same way. Anyone criticizing the Nazi party or any official of the party was subject to arrest, torture, and trial not in a German court but by tribunal outside the normal judicial system

2006 Bush administration passed a bill to setup Military Tribunal Courts. This gives the leaders of the Bush administration the authority to establish a separate justice system without the right to due process, a lawyer, or a trail in the normal court system.
1937 The Nazi's passed a law and setup Military Tribunal Courts. This gave the Leaders of the Nazi Party the authority to establish a separate justice system without the right to due process, a lawyer, or a trail in the normal court system.

10. Just because
Just because she is shaking world leaders hands does not make her an expert in foriegn policy. This was a stunt, I didn't see MCcain shaking hands with world leaders. Ever??? Anyway. I cring at thought of this becoming a reality.

Why can't Barack have access to these people? He is more impotant then her. she is just a flimsy govener. That is like having Jody Rell meet the queen. ( R CT govonor)

12. The Press Took "29 Seconds"
The press got bought off with "29 Seconds". What a sellout. You cannot ask even one meaningful question in 29 seconds. But the press took 29 seconds. And McCain thinks the press is against him? Bye Bye USA
