"Vote for me or before you know it, we'll be invading Poland."
Unfortunately, because Ronald Reagan and George H.W. Bush and George W. Bush cut taxes for rich people and exploded the debt over the past three decades, it seems that Hitler’s about to take over any minute.
People say, ‘Oh those Tea Party people, they’re angry.’ I say: ‘No, they’re concerned and they’re worried.’ They’re worried that we could destroy the currency by adding such a massive debt.” Paul then invoked the Nazis: “In Germany it led to Hitler.”
It can happen here!
Clearly what’s needed to avert this crisis is…more tax cuts.

“Please excuse Mr. Hilter. He hasn’t slept since 1945.”
oy ,this guy is so uninformed ,scary
And if Dandy Randy gets elected “Hitler” will be one step closer.
Today Kentucky, tomorrow
Barstowthe world.The elites must laugh daily at their wonderful creation called the “DUMBEST PEOPLE ON THE PLANET the TEA Party”
The so call liberal media, that is own by rich republicans love making the tea party viable, it represents success at making ordinary americans ignorant and dumb.
everyday we hear people shouting that Obama is a progressive, liberal, socialist.
but no one answers the question, what about Obama makes him a progressive? Liberal? Socialist?
again the elites laugh, look at what is possible with TV, and say “they are all like sheep believing that cutting taxes will save the planet.”
It doesn’t matter whether Ayn Rand Paul is informed or not. He’s addressing an uninformed/misinformed/disinformed audience, so naturally he’s going to speak the lowest common denominator.
More projection from a neocon. He might, however, have also just read Obama’s grab for all your Internet records without a warrant, and the proposal that the government institute real-time keystroke logs on all government computers. If or when the latter happens, expect the same tracking s/w on library and Internet cafe machines, if it’s not there already, then Apple and IBM pc’s with surreptitious s/w that would report such data. I suppose that just because a rooster has three wings, it doesn’t mean he can’t crow when the sun comes up.
Whenever I “call out” a conservative for using the Hitler comparison, I’m chided and scolded for all the times that liberals compared W to Hitler. Am I missing something? Did that happen much, or is that just typical wingnut projection? I’m serious. While I disliked Bush intensely, I did not personally compare him to Hitler. WTF??
But this is just standard everyday wingnut trash talk these days. Very acceptable bc it gets the desired response from their base. And so: on it goes…
Yeah: that also crossed my mind when I read this. However, I don’t believe that AynRand Paul has a clue about that kind of stuff. Too subtle for his type.
Now BT, surely you know that it was Tax Cuts that ended childhood polio. Tax cuts that ended the Depression. Tax Cuts that brought down the Berlin Wall. It was Tax Cuts that built Public Education and Tax Cuts that sent Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin to the moon.
and apparently we don’t know the half of his lunacy
asked about mountaintop removal in 09:
then again, current EPA head Lisa Jackson concurs, but that’s for another post, another day X~o
sadly yes
Did you see this?
this country is so fkkkkkked
Excellent news. Breitbart is probably already making beating the bushes drum up cash for his legal defense fund.
so if your property has oil on it
feel free to spill it all over the place
pass the popcorn for the depos
and part of the problem with all of that nonsense spouted by Paul is that frequently the owner of the land surface does not own the underlying mineral rights and the owner of the mineral rights can pretty much destroy the surface land to reach the minerals.
value added destruction!
Saw that earlier. She’s got this asshole by the short hairs. He’ll be forced to reveal where the vid came from in order to defend himself. IANAL but I don’t see a big problem showing intent in this case.
Trees? Cut ‘em all down.
Fish? Kill ‘em all.
The man is an idiot.
Willingly, knowingly destroyed her livelyhood by lying about her. IANAL either but sure seems actionable to me.
oy…he does surgery on peoples EYES!
“Only after the last tree has been cut down. Only after the last fish has been caught. Only after the last river has been poisoned. Only then will you realize that money cannot be eaten.” Cree Nation Tribal Prophecy
why yes, yes I did see that – and then promptly emailed Morris Dees
askingbegging him to personally handle her suit – shake every last penny from these shitheelsalthough I’m sure Chuck Toad will be along any second to scold us all on the “chilling” effects this will have on journamalism :D
f’ yeah !
echoing Great White Father Reagan’s sentiment – if you’ve seen one redwood …
Some serious entertainment…

Back to work.
Namaste
Wouldn’t you pay real good money to see Mo Dees have a go at that little drooling piece of fecal matter?
Chuck Todd?? Oh, is that the guy whos face makes me change the channel?
like Andrea Markis and Billo the clown
have a lovely day
all puffed up with self importance
NETWORK was on last night…1974
Have a great afternoon.
Yup. Somehow, I just can’t see him “protecting his sources.” I just hope the process bankrupts the miserable POS, although I’m guessing some serious wingnut money will flow into his defense fund.
why yes, yes it is
Namaste
You tell Rand.
Tea Party Patriots got your back.
Rand Paul knows even less about history than he does politics.
Godwin’s Law. It was bound to happen. The mileage people seek invoking the Hitler gambit. They are reaching for straw-men.
Somebody is going to be VERY eager to make Brietbart settle with her. Conservatives are like rats though. Breitbart will throw his source under the bus fast.
Still spectacular and an all time fave of CBL.
Plankton feed on carbon dioxide with sunlight.
What’s wrong with this picture?
Consider chemtrails.
and that is sayin’ something
I think Rand Paul is just pulling a “W” here and trying to one-up daddy. Because like the presidents Bush, at least H.W. could never be called a complete moron. As with the Paul’s, I may disagree with most of what Ron Paul thinks, he is no moron like his son.
Rand Paul also thinks that mountaintop removal makes the land “prettier” and “more useful”. Conway has to hope that nobody convinces Paul to shut up between now and election day.
You see how that is so very unkind to say that about Mr. Toad. It is comments such as that full of blogger snark that hurts feelings. It also gives the Corporate shills another reason to become “Gatekeepers”. There is much too much credit given to the unaccountable bloggers.
Actually CNN is already a Gatekeeper, but the Internet needs more Gates and more Keepers. I am guessing Mr. Ayn Rand agrees.
OT, but t came up this morning in a tinfoil hat conversation:
The Bell Tolls for the IMF, World Bank
&
THE SECRET GOVERNMENT
Interesting history:
The House of Rothschild
Sort of like Reid in Nevada huh?
There can’t be an informed person alive that can look at the collection of candidates available today running as D’s vs R’s and the candidates available 40 years ago running as D’s vs R’s and NOT conclude that the result has been a monumental shift to the right by both parties.
And if you see that and also realize that on issues with the American public at large there has NOT been a monumental shift to the right, then the only possible explanation is that it’s intentional and it’s coordinated.
How long are we going to allow these parties to do this?
So the tea party will fight the rise of fascism, generally referred to as corporatism, by following the game plan of the fascists who hated the communists and socialists in the 20s and 30s. Since the fascists fought and killed unionists, communists and socialists after years of working themselves up to higher and higher levels of hating the weak elements in society, the solution seems to be to emulate them but reframe the past while ignoring the originating effects of the great war.
Compassionate corporatism the sequel.
saw an intersting tweet this morning, that Conway would not commit to voting for Reid as Majority Leader. gee, wonder why someone taking DSCC cash would say something like that ?
Repubs are not really a “party,” no, more likely they are a vile infestation of hostiles, who spread their own special brand of misery around the state, around the country and around the planet.
So let’s try a game here…(or make up a new one..doesn’t matter) It’s called “Define the Lowest Common Denominator for the Pee-Party”…
Is it that they can’t read, write, mumble, scribble, dribble, spew, articulate, scream, type, dictate, or in any fashion describable by any language on the planet now, in the future or in the past communicate to ANY OTHER human on the planet now, in the future or in the past – ever. Or, is the ‘grunt’ as defined by cluster-fox minions the only form of intelligible communication coming from these single cell life forms??
Or, is it something else…??? Got any recommendations??
The pot calls the kettle black.
You know you’re in trouble when you’re talking politics and the sentence ends with “Hitler.”
Not for nothing, Mr. Rand has it right, but not in the way he thought.
After all, it should have long since been clear to any reasonable observer that
-
* For those who need a brief thumbnail refresher, the SA were the brownshirted stormtroopers – the streetfighting thugs who terrorized ordinary civilians and political opponents of the National Socialists prior to and shortly after the National Socialists took power, with busting up Jewish businesses, trashing and beating members of opposing political parties, torchlight parades and bookburnings and the like – not the black-uniformed SS. The SA was a wholly-owned subsidary of and had been created by the National Socialists. The National Socialist party leadership purged the SA leaders (killed a lot of them) and neutered the SA once the party’s hold on power and the mechanisms of the German state became strong enough, i.e., by late 1934. A lot of the SA members, it would seem, thought they were responsible for bringing the Party into power, and never got over the confusion and WTF-ing over how they got used, tossed aside and stomped under foot.
I predict a similar fate for the Tea Party.
Did anyone notice that the SEC is exempt from FOIA requests in the new finreg bill? There’s a win for freedom, right? Now we’ll never know the truth about the crimes committed first under Bush/Paulsen and then under Obama/Geithner. The true benefactors of this $3.7 trillion dollar robbery thank you for this. Fight amongst yourselves, serfs.
Partisans are the new loyalists. All of you blind leftist partisans are just as horrible as blind right wing partisans. And you also aren’t any more informed. Your party is the Incumbent Party. It consists of a group that calls itself Republican (Rs) and another that calls itself Democratic (Ds). (Note that those names are lies on their own.) The Incumbent Party is pro status quo and has been an unparalleled machine concentrating power into the hands of the few. The Board of Directors of this machine is the central bank. Rs dream about wars and defense contracts. The Ds dream about equality and big programs to implement this dream. No matter which wins the bid, the Board is happy. Why? Because the board lives on public debt.
You seem to be new around here – new enough I guess to not be aware that the folks at FDL are in no way “blind leftists partisans.” Most of us are on the left, that is true, but quite willing to point out the faults of the Obama administration in particular and Democrats in general (though admittedly, the areas where we find fault are probably not the same as you apparently find fault)
The defenders of the SEC FOIA inclusion said that the SEC already had the exemption. I would say that if Team Obama wanted to keep a promise of transparency then they should have made sure that it should revoked the so-called right to keep secrets from everyone not in the SEC. I doubt the original promise meant anything more than another case of playing the rubes.
Wet yer pants, kid?
Glad you brought that up, scribe. I’ve thought that since I saw them wearing sidearms at the HCR rallies.
That’s right, and President Assad of Syria is an eye doctor too. Except that he’s taller than Randall is. I’m waiting for these tea people to start calling for the revocation of all taxes on tabacco. See what freedom real taxlessness provides
“Hitler’s about to take over any minute”
Realize that this has been planned all along. At least when I was told about it in 1996, they still hadn’t picked out of three sites which one for 911. Of course New York was one of the three but during that time, they called it “Something big is planened to happen in the near future which will start everything”. Who told me was Bruce Adreani, my ex-brothere-in-law and money man behaaind Clyde O’Connor who flew the plane featured in the artice a few years ago.
Mexico drug plane used for US ‘rendition’ flights: report Sep 4, 2008
http://afp.google.com/article/ALeqM5j6QonBKKMo2gw1e3ql-xUcQEZbVg
Who were the planners who told Bruce were the those in the big Financial Groups who today have done a great job bringing down our economy which by the way was another step explained in 1996.
Their plan as explained to me was to force Martial Law. This will lead to a Dictatorship or Nazification so to speak. The Detention Camps then called Prisons would open and later some will turn into extermination sites. I was told by Bruce that “When the Change Comes, you’re either WITH US OR NOT. Those NOT are will be rounded up and put into the Prisons”.
We’re in the midst of a White House Coup that has been in the planning for decades. The Coup is one of many planned over our world towards their plans of a New World Order.

Well, I for one, believe everything you’ve posted….an more. See my articles up above. #48. they are terrifying.
these “people” don;’t care who they kill. Ed Schultz just had some guy from Heritage who laughed when Ed told him the “99er’s” were starting to suicide themselves out of despair. this is exactly what “they” want…and a civil war so they can declare Martial Law with NSPD 51…the sooner the better
Dec oughta be interesting when they pull the entire rug out from under those “teat suckers” dependent on the government which stole their homes, jobs and dignity
Thanks for the reply Kassandra. We are certainly in a huge pickle of a problem yet since I know the big picture my vision says there is an opposition actively working against the Coup. Also, the Coup seems to be running scared since they are instituting all these new controls hoping to stop the tidal wave coming at them. There’s more….
If you look closely you’ll see investigations not the type that are supporting corruption but those focused on those involved. Looking at your post above I sense you are reading the history of those involved. You have more to research as we all do but doing so will help us all understand what this is and where it came from. Watch the series on “The Money Masters” it’s a 22 video series if I’m not mistaken.

Excuse me… uh… Mr. Paul? One has to be of German Aryan descent to be a Nazi. Maybe you can stretch it to Austrian. That’s it, though.
Fascism is a real threat. Nazi and Fascist are not interchangeable terms though.
