An Ol' Broad's Ramblings
Dhimmis Compare Repubs to Nazis!
On the heels of Robert Wexler and the Obama campaign pushing the Nazi smear on Sarah Palin, the Nazi talk strikes again. Last night on Larry King, Dee Dee Meyers described the theme of last night’s convention program – Country First – as a “very exclusive message” that she interpreted as meaning “basically either you’re a Republican or you don’t love your country.”
King used Meyers’ response as a segue to his other guests, Jesse Ventura and DL Hughley, and this is what they said:
KING: Yes, wasn’t that surprising, Jesse, even though you didn’t see it, that the theme was “we’re the patriots”?VENTURA: Well, you know, the Republicans have been pushing really Hermann Goering on us, the Nazi, since 2001. I mean, you know…
KING: Hermann Goering?
VENTURA: Yes. He said that it’s easy to take a country to war. You have to convince them they’re under attack. Denounce the pacifist for being unpatriotic and also for putting the country into danger. And yet, Thomas Jefferson said dissension is the greatest form of patriotism.
I like to follow the teachings of Thomas Jefferson a little bit more than Herman Goering.
KING: D.L., are you…
HUGHLEY: To follow…
KING: I’m sorry.
HUGHLEY: To follow up on what Jesse was saying, it did remind me — I promise you, the first thing I thought when I saw those “Country First” signs, it reminded me of Nazis. It really — I mean they just seemed so, you know — that seemed to be a country that I don’t recognize.
Excuse me? Perhaps you don’t recognize the country anymore because you and your ilk have been working so hard to this once great Republic into a socialist, defeated, third world country!
