When Bush is Right, He's Right
Silence Dogood, November 2nd, 2007

I don't often agree with George W. Bush but when he's right, he's right. Thursday Mister Bush said that the Democrats were like the people who ignored the rise of Hitler. He then went on to say that "the world paid a terrible price." And, sadly, he is 100 percent right! The Democrats have been entirely too quick to appease Mister Bush and Dick Cheney's fascist agenda.

Oh fine, Bush and Cheney haven't baked six million people in the ovens ... YET ... but you have to admit that the senseless slaughter of some one million Iraqis in an unprovoked war for oil is a pretty good start toward Hitler's mark. One can rest assured that the conflict with Iran will inch the Bush cabal ever closer to Hitler's sickening tally.

I love the corporate-owned media response to someone likening Bush and Cheney to Hitler: "Don't you think though, that they just have America's best interest at heart? Sure, they're obviously a bit misguided, but they're patriotic and really only doing what is best for America, don't you think?"

Sure, and Hitler figured it was in Germany's best interest to round-up Jews and to pitch them into the kiln. Also, one of the main reasons Hitler marched across Europe was to confiscate all the agricultural land and in the doing, to ensure a good and steady supply of food for his German master race. Hitler went to war to steal Poland's wheat, and Bush and Cheney went to war to steal Iraq's oil. Different time. Different resource. Same motivation and same result. And guess what? Many Democrats, including Hillary Clinton, voted in favor of Bush's Iraq blitzkrieg. And know what else? Many Democrats continue to support funding for the Bush-Cheney Iraq oil grab.

As a tasty aside, "shock and awe" was just a cool Neocon way of calling a "blitzkrieg" something other than a blitzkrieg. But ... err ... it was a blitzkrieg.

Yeah, gotta give Bushie credit where credit is due. He's never been more right in all his life! The Democrats are EXACTLY like the people who ignored the rise of Hitler.

Bush actually has a lot in common with Hitler. The German madman LOVED torture and secret prisons (ever hear of Auschwitz?). Of course, Hitler and the Nazi Party had the armed Schutzstaffel (Waffen SS) and Bush, Cheney, and the Republican Party have the North Carolina-based Blackwater. That's a paranoid observation, right? Well, Mister Bush and Cheney have swindled the American taxpayer out of nearly a billion dollars of funding for Blackwater. To put that figure into perspective, in terms of every country on the planet's annual military spending, that would put Blackwater in the top 50 percent. That is one huge taxpayer-subsidized private military. Hitler would have killed to have such a privatized force at his fingertips.

Of course the Democrats continue providing funding for Blackwater. And the Democrats continue to pass Bush-written legislation that guts the Constitution and undermines the peoples' rights and freedoms ... think FISA and domestic spying without warrants. So, oh yeah buddy! Bush is damned straight ... the Democrats are like the people who ignored the rise of Hitler.
