Please, they were not socialists. They took that name Socialist because it was expedient to do so while they were on the rise.

There are lots of memoirs by people who lived in Germany at that time and watched the encroachment of the Nazis.

The socialists of today are not Nazis.

The Nazis were extreme nationalists, which is a fascist trait.

Socialists are those who believe that the State is paramount to the Individual.

It could be quite aptly named, National Patriotism.

It seems that Lou Dobbs might be a National Patriotist.

And you've got to watch out for those who consider themselves citizens of the world - They might be considered Global Socialists.

Is it possible to be patriotic to the world?

Oh yeah? My world is better than your world?

When money again becomes worthless like it was in 30's Germany, there will be nothing left but guns with which to vote. Thank goodness in America, unlike in Germany, our guns are decentralized.

It just might prevent socialism.

Economic fascism as practiced by Italy and Germany in the 1920s and ’30s allowed private property and private enterprise to exist, but only if it was strictly controlled and regimented by the state so that it would serve "the public interest" and not private interests. The philosophy of German fascism was expressed in the slogan Gemeinnutz geht vor Eigennutz, which means "the common good comes before the private good." "The Aryan," Hitler wrote in Mein Kampf, "willingly subordinates his own ego to the community and, if the hour demands, even sacrifices it." This sounds a lot like John McCain’s campaign theme of "Country First" (before self-interest), doesn’t it?

Since the founding of this nation there has been an ongoing battle between Big Business and Big Government over who gets to be on top.

Capitalism - When Big Business is on top.

Socialism - When Big Government is on top.

Fascism - When Big Business and Big Government are spooning.

U.S. Constitution - Free Enterprise.

I wonder why Hitler, the Socialist, admired Mussolini, the Fascist, so much.

There must be other evil doers that we can compare with Obama. What was that King's name from Braveheart? Let's compare Obama to him.

How much did they admire each other? Were they "spooning?"

What is wrong with you people???
Von Brunn was not a socialist, not a Republican, and Not a Democrat. He hated everyone. He hated you, for ever taking another opinion that was contrary to his own. And everybody who tries to politisize his beliefs as right or left, shame on you. You would try to capitalize on this human tragedy, for what?? To recruite whom?

The Very Stupid?

Default Von Brunn Who Hated Jews, Christians And Republicans, Embraced Socialism and Atheism.

Holocaust Museum Shooter: Christian-Hating Socialist

Although the hate crimes industry lumps neo-Nazis and White Nationalists in with the “Religious Right” – and occasionally, FrontPage Magazine, the better to smear you with – few Americans realize the true believers are not merely non-Christian but anti-Christian. Like their predecessors, they trace Aryan downfall to “culture distorters” (guess who?) – and among the largest “distortion” is the replacement of warlike Germanic gods with Jesus Christ, the Messiah promised by the Jewish Scriptures. Von Brunn dedicated Kill the Best Gentiles to the late professor Revilo P. Oliver. Typical of Nazis, past and present, Oliver branded Christianity a “Jewish cult” and “spiritual syphilis.” Brunn’s follows suit. He shuns the words of the Bible, exhorting his readers: “Remember, these delusions of grandeur were written by HEBREWS about themselves. Megalomaniacs of such magnitude generally are manic-depressives confined to insane asylums.” (p. 31.) His distaste for their Deity could hardly be more evident:

JEHOVAH, like Alley Oop, says whatever the scriptwriters print in the blurbs. Those who find it compelling to believe Yahweh created a flat earth, circa 5000 B.C., spoke from a burning bush, bared his buttocks, parted the Red Sea, and loves JEWS above all other nations, share a childish credulity with those who believe millions of JEWS died in German gas-chambers. It also confirms JEWISH conviction that Gentiles are stupid sheep. It makes one want to puke. (p. 32.)

‘The illegal we do immediately. The unconstitutional takes a little longer. [The New World Order] cannot happen without U.S. participation, as we are the most significant single component. Yes, there will be a New World Order, and it will force the United States to change it’s perceptions.’ — Henry Kissenger, World Affairs Council Press Conference, Regent Beverly Wilshire Hotel , April 19th 1994

‘You can fool some of the people all of the time, and those are the ones you want to concentrate on.’ — George W. Bush

‘Sarah, if the American people had ever known the truth about what we Bushs have done to this nation, we would be chased down in the streets and lynched.’ George Bush Sr. 1992

‘Kill the Best Gentiles!’
