    To me, what bothers me about this story is the over-the-top pandering. Yes, all politicians do it to some degree. But Obama will take potshots at Christianity, but bends over backwards to pay tribute to certain groups and nations that do not have primary roles in America's greatness.

    But on the other hand, late last year Obama said he has no interest in America leading the world and being a greater nation than anyone else. It's kind of the Woodward factor, now that I think about it.

    Couldn't agree more. It's been a shitty seven years of pandering, lowering standards, lowering expectations, lowering international standing, and basically flipping everything on it's ear. Door.ass.out can't come soon enough for this ass hat.

    In the coming days, the calendar will bring the anniversaries of two signal events. One, of course, is Sept. 11, a Tuesday this year, as it was in 2001, when Al Qaeda terrorists in four hijacked planes killed more than 3,000 Americans. With public memorial services and private tears, those deaths will be recalled and mourned.

    The other anniversary is of the visit President George W. Bush made to a Washington mosque just six days after the attack, where he spoke eloquently against the harassment of Arabs and Muslims living in the United States and about the need to respect Islam.

    Damage control immediately following an attack on our country by Muslim Terrorists is not the same as bowing with the "Grand Imam" a decade later.

    Yes, like calls for systemic genocide and the desire to conquer Europe for the Aryan race. Fuck off with that shit. You don't know what a REAL racist looks like Billy, just like you wouldn't know good smash mouth football if it won, say, 8 of the last 10 titles.

    My news source must be lying to me.

    Whatever you say little guy

    Study some history, then get back to me. Hitler was elected democratically. It's not like he started out calling for genocides.

    I'm not saying that's happening here and now, hence the word tendencies. Some of his outlandish statements are just wrong though. It doesn't really matter if he believes it. Joe Sixpack with a 91 IQ in SEC or ACC cuntry eats it up and thinks it's great.

    Right...

    "The election took place after the Nazi Machtergreifung of 30 January when President Paul von Hindenburg had appointed Hitler Chancellor, who immediately urged the dissolution of the Reichstag and the arrangement of new elections. In early February, the Nazis "unleashed a campaign of violence and terror that dwarfed anything seen so far." Storm troopers began attacking trade union and Communist Party (KPD) offices and the homes of left-wingers.[1]:317

    In the second half of February, the violence was extended to the Social Democrats, with gangs of brownshirts breaking up Social Democrat meetings and beating up their speakers and audiences. Issues of Social Democratic newspapers were banned.[1]:318–320 Twenty newspapers of the Centre Party, a party of Catholic Germans, were banned in mid-February for criticizing the new government. Government officials known to be Centre Party supporters were dismissed from their offices, and stormtroopers violently attacked party meetings in Westphalia.[1]:322

    Six days before the scheduled election date, the German parliament building was set alight in the Reichstag fire, allegedly by the Dutch Communist Marinus van der Lubbe. This event reduced the popularity of the KPD, and enabled Hitler to persuade President Hindenburg to pass the Reichstag Fire Decree as an emergency decree according to Article 48 of the Weimar Constitution. This emergency law removed many civil liberties and allowed the arrest of Ernst Thälmann and 4,000 leaders and members of the KPD[1]:331 shortly before the election, suppressing the Communist vote and consolidating the position of the Nazis.

    The KPD was "effectively outlawed from 28 February 1933", although it was not completely banned until the day after the election.[1]:336 While the Social Democrats (SPD) were not as heavily oppressed as the Communists at that time, the SPD were also restricted in their actions, as the party's leadership had already fled to Prague and many members were acting only from the underground. Hence, the Reichstag fire is widely believed to have had a major effect on the outcome of the election. As a replacement parliament building, and for 10 years to come, the new parliament used the Kroll Opera House for its meetings.

    The resources of big business and the state were thrown behind the Nazis' campaign to achieve saturation coverage all over Germany. Brownshirts and SS patrolled and marched menacingly through the streets of cities and towns. A "combination of terror, repression and propaganda was mobilized in every... community, large and small, across the land."[1]:339 Irene von Goetz writes, "In a decree issued on 17 February 1933, Göring ordered the Prussian police force to make unrestrained use of firearms in operations against political opponents (the so-called Schießerlass)" or shooting decree.[2]

    To further ensure a Nazi majority in the vote, Nazi organizations "monitored" the vote process. In Prussia 50,000 members of the SS, SA and Stahlhelm were ordered to monitor the votes as so-called deputy sheriffs or auxiliary police (Hilfspolizei) in another decree by acting Interior Minister Hermann Göring.[2]"

    And Obama is a terrorist.
