Dr. Tyler; Captain America 0 Report post Posted February 1, 2004 Oh God. This is what passes as a thread on TSM? Don't make me c'n'p a thread from FreeRepublic.com and say it's an example of thought by the right. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest FrigidSoul Report post Posted February 1, 2004 Seeing as how I studied Hitler rather extensively in college, I can say that Adolf was NOT a terribly bright individual and was surrounded by people of even LESS intellectual capacity. Hitler's idiocy would amaze people. Dumb as a rock. -=Mike The problem was he also killed off the smart ones like Rommell. Of course he also plotted against Hitler... but if Rommell were in charge of the military aspects. Shit would be different. Hitler was stupid in that he didn't get started on getting all the weapons into production that could have won/saved the war until it was too far gone. *Goes off to watch Secret Weapons of the Luftwaffe" If I remember correctly Rommel basically burnt out and started going mad. They sent him out to some country side village and he was found apparently commiting suicide(although it was probably murder). I could be wrong on which general that was but I believe it was Rommel.

Guest Olympic Slam Report post Posted February 1, 2004 Nah, we're at war with Islamic Fundamentalism. "Terrorism", "Evil-Doers" and "WMD's" are all words used to soften what we're really dealing with. Then we're opening ourselves up to more violence and more death. Crazies with explosives are already here. I wish our government would come out and say who the terrorists are and what they believe in. The problem is how you do that without threatening the typically peaceful Muslims who just want to live life without blowing themselves up or being blown up by someone else. You're right on both counts. Which is why this War on Terror is so complicated and such a daunting, and in my opinion, such an impossible task. If only we were dealing with a single, easily identifiable nation. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

However, in the end, he would have never won. NOBODY on Earth could compete with US production power. -=Mike Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tyler, you know this kind of idiocy is not exactly RARE in leftist circles. I could post things from pandagon.net and buzzflash.com every single day and hit the same level. -=Mike Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Wildbomb 4:20 Report post Posted February 1, 2004 It's more the norm towards the extremes of the left, Mike. Honestly, these web-sites are a slap in the face to anybody who thinks they are a liberal. An extremist on the left is no better than an extremist on the right. Hence my disdain for both.

An extremist on the left is no better than an extremist on the right. Hence my disdain for both. Fair enough. I'm pro-life and favor painful deaths to anybody who bombs an abortion clinic. -=Mike ...In my eyes, I'd rather change America's heart about abortion rather than the laws Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Ghettoman Report post Posted February 1, 2004 Here's a thought from the left: "I wonder what it's like on the right...." OMG GET IT!? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest hunger4unger Report post Posted February 2, 2004 The article is of course an extreme view and re-produced here in an attempt to attack the left or the liberals on the board. I'm anti war and anti Bush yet I don't think that it's fair or right to compare Hitler to Bush. Hi Ghettoman, by the way. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
