Guy comparing the U.S. to the Third Reich.
Isn't this where someone asks "why do you hate America?"
And what's that called, anyway? I thought there was a special term applied to the "Hitlar comparison."
Just another form of grabbing power and control from the people. Adding additional levels to existing laws to make them "more badder" is like Animal House's "Super Secret Probation".
Okay, Riddle Me This,....
Why are there quite a few state governors upset at the Bush Administration's effort to usurp Control of the National Guard away from those States and place them under Federal control for missions such as riot control and disaster relief? These have always been state missions, under the Governor of that particular State.
This was slipped into a 2007 Defense Authorization Act without debate and passed late last year.
Democrat and Republican Governors all oppose the change and state that the provision was not discussed ahead of time. The Senate Armed Services Committee Chairman, Sen John Warner, R-Va stated "
The provision was fully available in the public domains for review and debate for over five on this prior to its final passage in the House and Senate, and approval by the President." Probably had something to do with a locked cabinet in a sub-basement of an outlying government building somewhere in Washington D.C. The whole thing resembles the first couple of chapters of Douglas Adams'
The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy.
Disneyland on the Potomac keeps getting more surreal every day.
