“What I am about to tell you is something you’ve probably never heard or read in history books,” she likes to tell audiences. I am a witness to history.”
“I cannot tell you that Hitler took Austria by tanks and guns; it would distort history. We voted him in.”
“I wasn’t old enough to vote in 1938. I was eleven. But, I remember. We elected him by a landslide – 98 percent of the vote.”
“Everyone thinks that Hitler just rolled in with his tanks and took Austria by force. No so. In 1938, Austria was in deep Depression. Nearly one-third of our workforce was unemployed. We had 25 percent inflation and 25 percent bank loan interest rates.”
“Farmers and business people were declaring bankruptcy daily. Young people were going from house to house begging for food. Not that they didn’t want to work; there simply weren’t any jobs. My mother was a Christian woman and believed in helping people in need. Every day we cooked a big kettle of soup and baked bread to feed those poor, hungry people – about 30 daily.”
“We looked to our neighbor on the north, Germany, where Hitler had been in power since 1933.” she recalls. “We had been told that they didn’t have unemployment or crime, and they had a high standard of living.”
“Nothing was ever said about persecution of any group – Jewish or otherwise. We were led to believe that everyone in Germany was happy. We wanted the same way of life in Austria. We were promised that a vote for Hitler would mean the end of unemployment and help for the family. Hitler also said that businesses would be assisted, and farmers would get their farms back.”

Obama voters are just plain ignorant and uninformed.
ReplyDeleteYEAH IVE BEEN WORKING FOR 35 YEARS AND MY PAYCHECK HAS NEVER WENT DOWN AFTER THE YEAR !!!!!!!!!!WONDER WILL HAPPEN IN NEXT 4 BUT IM SURE ITS NO OBAMAS FAULT!
ReplyDeleteSeriously....comparing the President of the United States to Adolf Hitler? Get a grip folks. You are not even making a sliver of sense.
ReplyDeleteDo this one thing if you will:step waaay back.Far enough back to see the grand scheme of things.If you do this you will see that the choice of presidents would'nt have made that big of a difference.I liked Romney a lot,but with things as screwed up as they are could he really have turned it all around?That we'll never know,but the difference between god and man we do know.
ReplyDeleteI don't see how it can be stopped here now--the extreme left has infiltrated and controls our public education system , the media, the legal system and even our military. The concept of family and morality have been replaced with entitlement and immorality.It is like a slowly building tidal wave that cannot be stopped. The U.S. will never be the same.
ReplyDelete11:27 The story does not compare Obama to Hitler...It merely points out that those who ignore history are doomed to repeat it..
ReplyDeleteWE NEED TO WAKE UP WHATEVER HAPPENED TO LAND OF THE FREE HOME OF THE BRAVE ! ITS DISGUSTING WHAT WE THE PEOPLE HAVE LET THIS COUNTRY BECOME WASHINGTON NEEDS TO BE OVERHAULED AND GET PEOPLE IN OFFICE THAT CARE ABOUT HONESTY INTEGRITY AND US THE PEOPLE IN GENERAL ! ALL THEY CARE ABOUT IS ARGUING AND MAKING THERE EGOS AND THEMSELVES LOOK GOOD !THEY LY, COVER UP,AND DECIEVE AND ITS ALL OUR FAULT! WE NEED TO START OVER COMPLETELY
ReplyDeleteBunch of scarey cats and sissies.
ReplyDeleteThe same as what 11:33? Go back to the good old days when blacks were seated in the back of the bus, used separate water fountains, ate in separate restaurants? Or maybe back when women didn't have the right to vote, or have their abusive husband arrested. Maybe go back to a time when intolerance ruled the day and innocent citizens were forced to defend themselves against rediiculous charges of communism. Yep, those were the days!
ReplyDelete12:02 Those days you speak of were the days of Democrat rule..Bone up on your history a little. Democrats were the party of Jim Crow laws. The Dems fought the Republicans to keep equal rights from women voters..Do some homework for God's sakes.
ReplyDeleteI just think that some of you people should move to Idaho and wait for the "NEW" Patriotic Community to be developed. Excuse me, "Defensible" Patriotic" Community. I hear there are specials. Buy now, free Kool-aid later. Defensible against what? bows and arrows? Certainly not tomahawk missiles or terrorist attacks.

ReplyDeleteYou say don’t compare Obama to Hitler, yet Obama is acting just like Hitler. Adolf Hitler wanted things his way and shot those that didn’t back his way of thinking, Obama wants things his way and just side steps Congress by “Executive Decision” and makes everyone follow his directives. Obama lies and has spin doctors to help cover his ass; Hitler had a minister of Propaganda. Obama is involved in cover ups and Hitler denied knowing what the so called “Doctors” were doing in the camps, Obama denies any knowledge of the Bengasi affair. Obama feeds and houses the 47% of the US, Hitler fed and housed millions, (think work camps). Hitler said he would make the streets and town’s safe by outlawing private ownership of guns, Obama is going to grab our guns. Yes, we need to compare Obama to Hitler as they are two of a kind, cut from the same cloth, and as with Germany, the people of the USA were too stupid to see that he is a “Mad Man”, and elected this monster not once but twice now.
Obama is probably distantly related to Hitler, a genetic thing of sorts. Obama is a dictator and is striving to control the life of every American. Just wait and see.

are you?
WELL SAID 1127 WELL SAID!BUT THERE IS ALOT OF BLINDNESS IN SOCIETY TODAY
ReplyDeleteObama's actions are indeed paralleling HITLER. Don't be a fool like 11:27. Do the actual research and see for yourself.
ReplyDeleteThose that keep find it's nearly time to bear.

I don't consider it tough talk. It's just voicing what we believe in. And how much we believe in it.
You, it would seem, do not believe in what we do, or you would know what you have said is asinine.
But that's ok. You can think it is whatever you want it to be.
We can show you better than we can tell you.
If you do the math she is around 90 and may not survive Obama. Luckily most of us will. We will get the George Bush recession behind us someday. Buy some more bullits braindead rednecks. Gander Mtn. loves you.
ReplyDeleteBush recession didn't start until Pelosi and Reed took over the senate.
ReplyDeleteIt is the DEMOCRAT recession.
Soon it may turn into the DEMOCRAT turkey shoot.
Democrats are the enemies of America and should be terminated.
Alex first!
