"Hitler Appoints Panel to Investigate Dead Jews" |
|
Adolf Hitler today appointed a bipartisan independent panel to investigate the discovery of millions of dead Jews, gypsies, and gay people in various work camps throughout Germany and Poland.
Says Hitler: "I am shocked and appalled that this happened on my watch. I am fully committed to determining what the facts are behind this apparent genocide".
Friends of Hitler say the fearless leader is "shaken" by the discovery.

just didn't know if this was something that Hitler actually did, I guess I just read it wrong. Ya, I guess it's a pretty good comparison. nice work.

and I agree that Bush appointing his cronies to "investigate" himself is ludicrous. But there are people who would object to the Hitler connection.

The most influential book I have read is William Shirer's "Rise and Fall of the Third Reich" and have found it to be a precious resource. One reading is not enough.

17. Do you care if people object to the Hitler connection? |
|
If you do read about the Third Reich and you will see sooo many similarities between Nazi Germany and the ultra right wing Republicans who are our rulers right now it's downright scary.
I don't compare Bush to Hitler, because they are not alike but the methods used by the Bush administration are almost identical to the methods used by the Nazi government.

9. Himmler, Eichmann, Walther von Reichenau... |
|
Ribbentrop, Josef Tiso, Vidkun Quisling, Reinhard Heidrich... hell, even Stalin would be a decent choice.

14. Jeffrey Dahmer "baffled" by discovery of human heads in fridge |
|
"I just don't know how anyone could have sneaked those severed heads into my refrigerator without my knowing it.
Police are letting Dahmer conduct his own investigation into the matter.
The DA was quoted as saying "Dahmer has always been a good quiet neighbor, and he seems honest, so we're letting him get to the bottom of this himself. We trust him 100%"

16. Florida man expresses surprise at finding dead 11 year old in trunk |
|
"Somebody must have put her in there when I stopped to get gas," said the god-fearing man.
Police confiscated the body of the girl and let the man go.
"Obviously he's innocent" said one trooper. "There was a Bible on his front seat, and what man in his right mind would kill a little girl like that? Obviously it must be some kind of accident"
Are you with me here .....?

20. It's not meant to be a joke |
|
It's meant to be black black black
If I offend, well, you share my feelings of being offended.
How many people has Bush killed now?
Is it too early to joke about that?

22. Best laugh I've had all day! |
|
You're SO right. Allowing the * to investigate ITself makes as much sense as your headlines. And yet WE are supposed to accept the idea AS IF it is perfectly rational and sane.
NOT!

23. Be sure that you watch Jon Stewart tonight in |
|
about one hour and fifteen minutes. I am sure he will have a very witty piece on this. Last night he got all serious about the genuine problems we are having in the nation and the world today, but...... then he showed clips of all the news outlets and big shot anchors like Jennings, Brokaw and Rather talking about Janet Jackson's boob. It was such appropriate a way to show how ridiculous our media has become in reporting the stupid news and ignoring the important things that are happening in our lives..

27. Bill Bennett wrote "The Death of Outrage"... |
|
...when he thought America wasn't upset enough at the thought of Clinton getting his hob nobbed in the White House. Where's Bennett now as we have a White House that thinks it can remove itself from any kind of accountability or responsibility?
- Republicans screamed their heads off when anyone objected to their eight year inqusition/witch hunt into every aspect of Clinton's life...public and private. But indeed...where's the outrage at the Bush* government when they simply refuse to subject themselves to Constitutional checks and balances or the rule of law?
