The Left's dislike of the Jew and of Israel.


I have gained a wonderful lesson in the past few days. As I wrote several posts in support of Israel, I began to get heat, heavy heat, from, of all places, the Left, including the American Left and the European Left.

The hypocrisy of it all was stunning. The lesson I learned… nothing much has changed. The Left is still anti-Jew and anti-Israel.

Now, before you explode all over my blog here… understand, the Nazis were Leftists. They were Socialists… the Nationalist Socialist party… to be exact.

Over the decades, the American Left has become adept at changing the meaning of words, especially inflammatory words, to fit anyone, or anything, they do not like. Therefore in the lexicon of the Left, Nazi stands for Conservative, you see. But then, truth has never been much of a stumbling block to those bent on establishing the rule of the few, over the many, as does socialism. As any mediocre student of history knows the Nazis were socialists. Hitler was a socialist… a Leftist. I mean… I don’t have to try to prove it. It simply IS the truth! Uncomfortable, I imagine, for out Leftist friends, but there it is.

We have another presidential election coming up in 2008. Both conservatives and liberals are casting their eye in the “round about” hoping to spy a likely candidate to carry the emblem of their party.

Well, we stumbled across an article written by Edward Feser back in 2004. He put forth the idea that maybe the Democrats should look for a candidate in the mold of a former winning candidate who seemed to embody everything the Democrat party stands for today.

Here’s what Mr. Feser said:

"A solution for the Leftist might lie in turning one's historical eye back before either Clinton or McGovern, to find a model who was both genuinely radical and a solid electoral success. Then the task will be to find a modern politician who fits this paradigm as closely as possible. Who might serve as such a model?


One example stands out.

Who was he?

He had been something of a bohemian in his youth, and always regarded young people and their idealism as the key to progress and the overcoming of outmoded prejudices. And he was widely admired by the young people of his country, many of whom belonged to organizations devoted to practicing and propagating his teachings. He had a lifelong passion for music, art, and architecture, and was even something of a painter. He rejected what he regarded as petty bourgeois moral hang-ups, and he and his girlfriend "lived together" for years. He counted a number of homosexuals as friends and collaborators, and took the view that a man's personal morals were none of his business; some scholars of his life believe that he himself may have been homosexual or bisexual. He was ahead of his time where a number of contemporary progressive causes are concerned: he disliked smoking, regarding it as a serious danger to public health, and took steps to combat it; he was a vegetarian and animal lover; he enacted tough gun control laws; and he advocated euthanasia for the incurably ill.


He championed the rights of workers, regarded capitalist society as brutal and unjust, and sought a third way between communism and the free market. In this regard, he and his associates greatly admired the strong steps taken by President Franklin Roosevelt's New Deal to take large-scale economic decision-making out of private hands and put it into those of government planning agencies. His aim was to institute a brand of socialism that avoided the inefficiencies that plagued the Soviet variety, and many former communists found his program highly congenial. He deplored the selfish individualism he took to be endemic to modern Western society, and wanted to replace it with an ethic of self-sacrifice: "As Christ proclaimed 'love one another'," he said, "so our call -- 'people's community,' 'public need before private greed,' 'communally-minded social consciousness' -- rings out...! This call will echo throughout the world!"


The reference to Christ notwithstanding, he was not personally a Christian, regarding the Catholicism he was baptized into as an irrational superstition. In fact he admired Islam more than Christianity, and he and his policies were highly respected by many of the Muslims of his day. He and his associates had a special distaste for the Catholic Church and, given a choice, preferred modern liberalized Protestantism, taking the view that the best form of Christianity would be one that forsook the traditional other-worldly focus on personal salvation and accommodated itself to the requirements of a program for social justice to be implemented by the state. They also considered the possibility that Christianity might eventually have to be abandoned altogether in favor of a return to paganism, a worldview many of them saw as more humane and truer to the heritage of their people. For he and his associates believed strongly that a people's ethnic and racial heritage was what mattered most. Some endorsed a kind of cultural relativism according to which what is true or false and right or wrong in some sense depends on one's ethnic worldview, and especially on what best promotes the well-being of one's ethnic group.

Who was he? He certainly sounds like the ideal presidential candidate of a Pacifica Radio Network listener or Mother Jones subscriber -- or, to make a more timely reference, a contributor to MoveOn.org. It can only add to his appeal for such people that he was a target of American and British bombing raids and had to flee to the safety of an underground hide-out.

And he was none other than Time magazine's Man of the Year for 1938:

Adolf Hitler."

Stunning isn’t it?

We urge you to read the entire article. You’ll find it at:
http://www.tcsdaily.com/article.aspx?id=010804A

Why do I bring all this to the forefront today? Well, after months of being plastered with every racial epithet and called every hated name in the book, and some which were just made up on the spur of the moment, I thought I’d shed a little truth on who Hitler really was and... possibly poke an elbow in the ribs of the Left as a not-so- subtle-reminder that they ought not be describing conservatives in terms which, more truthfully, describe leftists/socialists.

  1. Well Sir, you almost had me buying it. Why is the American Nazi Party, A real party, to the extreme right? Extreme right and extreme left appear almost the same, it is the old addage "Too much of a good thing." Too much right or too much left are never any good. Or that "Absolute power corrupts Absolutley" I stopped the name calling if i recall and bashed a guy who said you were a Nazi.... A war of ideas can not be won by name calling. I am not calling you a liar suh, I just disagree with you on some issues. Fact: Hitler got rid of labor unions, thatis not a leftist or even a socialist view. Unions protect the workers and help management when it comes to disputes and puts workers in an even position. Plus remember when you talk about Hitler remember he married his cousin, a practice which is much reserved for well, I am not saying just where, but we know what flags they have in the back window of their rusted out pick up truck. And when those types fly that flag they do the flag a dis-service and cause the historical REALITY of what that flag and gentlment under that flag stood for.

    Hilter married Ava Braun. He was
    reportedly in love with his niece,
    Geli Rabaul, who committed suicide.
    Secondly,15,000 complaints are filed EVERY year with the NLRB (National Labor Relations Board)
    on behalf of union members AGAINST
    their unions. Besides, I've seen more"inbreds" in Ohio than I've seen in the South.

    We work like a horse.
    We eat like a pig.
    We like to play chicken.
    You can get someone's goat.
    We can be as slippery as a snake.
    We get dog tired.
    We can be as quiet as a mouse.
    We can be as quick as a cat.
    Some of us are as strong as an ox.
    People try to buffalo others.
    Some are as ugly as a toad.
    We can be as gentle as a lamb.
    Sometimes we are as happy as a lark.
    Some of us drink like a fish.
    We can be as proud as a peacock.
    A few of us are as hairy as a gorilla.
    You can get a frog in your throat.
    We can be a lone wolf.
    But I'm having a whale of a time!

    You have a riveting web log
    and undoubtedly must have
    atypical & quiescent potential
    for your intended readership.
    May I suggest that you do
    everything in your power to
    honor your encyclopedic/omniscient
    Designer/Architect as well
    as your revering audience.
    As soon as we acknowledge
    this Supreme Designer/Architect,
    Who has erected the beauteous
    fabric of the universe, our minds
    must necessarily be ravished with
    wonder at this infinate goodness,
    wisdom and power.

    Please remember to never
    restrict anyone's opportunities
    for ascertaining uninterrupted
    existence for their quintessence.

    There is a time for everything,
    a season for every activity
    under heaven. A time to be
    born and a time to die. A
    time to plant and a time to
    harvest. A time to kill and
    a time to heal. A time to
    tear down and a time to
    rebuild. A time to cry and
    a time to laugh. A time to
    grieve and a time to dance.
    A time to scatter stones
    and a time to gather stones.
    A time to embrace and a
    time to turn away. A time to
    search and a time to lose.
    A time to keep and a time to
    throw away. A time to tear
    and a time to mend. A time
    to be quiet and a time to
    speak up. A time to love
    and a time to hate. A time
    for war and a time for peace.

    Best wishes for continued ascendancy,
    Dr. Whoami

    P.S. One thing of which I am sure is
    that the common culture of my youth
    is gone for good. It was hollowed out
    by the rise of ethnic "identity politics,"
    then splintered beyond hope of repair
    by the emergence of the web-based
    technologies that so maximized and
    facilitated cultural choice as to make
    the broad-based offerings of the old
    mass media look bland and unchallenging
    by comparison."

    well hoosier I knew it was a relative he was fooling around with, I just read it over 20 yrs. ago when I was in highschool that it kinda got skewed in my memeory somewhere with all the other information "floating around" in the mostly empty space between my ears. (who knows, all the pot and stuff I did from junior high until graduation). Yeah there are alot of inbreds here in ohio, we import 'em from PA, IN and WV. I wish we could seal our borders with those redneck states. Maybe you would like to get rid of labor unions and cut your pay in half, and work twice as many hours and not get time and a half pay, or vacations, or sick pay, or worse yet in unsafe conditions? I sir refuse to work under those conditions and would quit my job and stop being a viable part of the economy, a consumer.

  7. "Unions protect the workers and help management when it comes to disputes and puts workers in an even position"

    Oh sure unions are great things.. tell that to my husband, who BTW, has belonged to TWO and they never did anything for him other than force him to pay dues. And the reason so much is too expensive in the USA is unions.. the reason we have lousy teachers in our schools is it's too difficult for a school to fire someone they want too for being a lousy teacher, or those 'sainted' people that are so-called teacers but are only child molestors in teachers clothing can't just be fired outright either, why.. UNIONS!

    The prejudice from so many towards people from the south, red necks or hillbillies is really something.. this comes from people that would reverently say African American when referring to black people (even those that have NEVER set foot in Africa), or 'immigrants' when speaking about those invaders from south of the border.. just so they won't offend those persons.. what a bunch of friggin hypocrites!

    Sorry LS.. just a little rant..:-)

    He didn't have better working conditions and pay and benefits than his non-union counterparts?

    Some unions now just kiss butt of the company because in certain areas all they can do is collect dues, anymoe than that and the company will get rid of them. People will eventually learn again, when they get sick of working for peanuts, maybe after China organizes, like Japan did after Regan Comics, i mean Reganomics.

    By the way, are you a redneck? my neighbors are and I would gladly trade them for a black or hispanic person. Next time I have to shovel their dog's crap out of my yard I'm going to put a bullet in the darn mutt, within city limts or not. And if they bathe their kids once a week it's a miracle. I tell them all the time they need to get a union job so they can afford a trip to the dentist. A housefull of 'em and maybe a total of 10 teeth, it's disgusting. Or the other neighbors, evertime I need to get in and out of my driveway I gotta threaten to have one of their drunk buddies trucks towed so I can get in and out of MY driveway. These guys and gals, in their 40's sitting around drunk and high on pot from sun-up to God knows when, loud, obnoxious, unintelligable speaking, just a lower form of life I have to "muck" with when I go for walks in the evenings. I didn't say from the south I said I wasn't going to say from where they were from, because so many are transplanted into my town, shoot my Italian grandfather helped run the KKK out of my town.

  10. Frank,
    I belonged to a union(Labors Union)
    when I was in college. I was forced
    to work with cretins that would rather piss in the concrete(so it
    would fail analysis and they could
    go home)than work. My dad belonged to a union (IUE Local 761) The local president and Dad started with the company in 1954. Dad died
    in 1985. We had to threaten the union with a lawsuit to obtain his
    death benefit for Mom,who was disabled. The local president died
    a few years later. He was a millionaire. Where did the money come from,Frank?I'll give you three
    guesses. He sold the rank and file out!! Tell your pro-union BS to the
    family of a truck driver the UMWA
    shot to death in West Virginia a few years back. He crossed a picket
    line. Is that an acceptable reason
    to kill a man,Frank?
    All Trumpka would says is "We're
    a little rough." No "I'm sorry" or
    anything. The widow sued the UMWA
    for wrongful death. The UMWA settled out of court for a 7 figure
    judgement,but admitted no wrong-doing. Give me a break!!
    My wife is a "hillbilly",Frank. Born in Chicago,but raised in Knox
    Co.,Ky. She has both a Bachelors and Masters degree in Nursing Science. She also pulls down 4 times more than I do. Among her and
    her 5 siblings there are 2 Doctorates,5 Masters and 7 Bachelors. Pretty good for "hillbillies" huh,Frank.Why should we Hoosiers put up with "white trash" when we can ship it to Ohio? Afterall,Ohio IS
    a four-letter word. Once again,
    your lack of reason and logic bites
    you in the butt.

  11. Frank,
    I will commend you;you're paying
    your child support.My sister's
    bisexual,Liberal Democrat,waste of
    tissue ex-husband couldn't be bothered. "No man tells me what to
    do" he shouted as the bailiffs handcuffed him to start his sentence for contempt. That was
    17yrs ago. He still owes her $27,000.00 in back support. Thank
    you for doing the responsible thing.FYI: The companies I have worked for paid the nonunion employees MORE than the union employees. We also got more overtime.The companies could pay us incentives to work late;the unions wouldn't allow it. They(the incentives) broke their (the union's ) contracts.

    I appreciate the sentiment hoosier, really, but I shouldn't get commended for doing what I am supposed to do. Someone shouldn't get a performance raise in sallery because they show up for work on time, you are supposed to. The fact that this "guy" claims to be a Liberal Democrat is not a sign of what Dems. stand for. I am very Liberal and do not scurt responsibility. The problem is his "No man is going to tell me what to do" attitude. Was this not apparent to your sister before they got married? I am not blaming her, alot of things become self evident in hind sight. You should just say the guy is a piece of human debrit who just happens to be Bi-sexual and proffesses to be a Liberal Democrat. I was not picking on your wife or her family, I was only stating my neighbors, their actions and how they "label" themselves. And trash is trash, it doesn't matter what nationality or color they are, I call alot of Italians I know "Dumb Daigos" alot, and I'm 50% Italian, my dad is 100%, my mom is English, German, and Scottish. Funny thing is I don't drink.
