Default History doesn't repeat, but it does rhyme!!

ABC reports that experts who track hate groups across the U.S. are growing increasingly concerned over violent rhetoric targeted at President Obama, especially as the debate over health care intensifies and a pattern of threats emerges. New polls meanwhile show President Obama’s popularity has sunk to record lows.
Is this an alarm bell for the possibility that a manufactured crisis is being prepared to reinvigorate support behind the government’s stalling socialist agenda?
As far back as March controversial talk show host Michael Savage predicted that a “Reichstag fire-like event” would be concocted to reinvigorate support behind Obama but that was only two months into his presidency when his approval ratings were still relatively high.

--------------
The Reichstag fire was an arson attack on the Reichstag building in Berlin on February 27 1933. The event is seen as pivotal in the establishment of Nazi Germany.
Four Communist leaders were subsequently arrested. Adolf Hitler, who had been sworn in as Chancellor of Germany four weeks before, on 30 January, urged passage of an emergency decree to counter the "ruthless confrontation of the Communist Party of Germany".
With civil liberties suspended, the government instituted mass arrests of Communists, including all of the Communist parliamentary delegates. With them gone, and their seats empty, the Nazis went from being a plurality party to the majority; subsequent elections confirmed this position and thus allowed Hitler to consolidate his power.

Will Team Obama orchestrate a "Reichstag fire" event, or some other major distraction to seize greater power over the country's economy? http://www.infowars.com/michael-sava...re-like-event/

Now that is a scary thought. Perhaps the man is actually smarter than I initially thought.
At any rate... he cancelled the F-22... so he can't be that smart.

Infowars? Really? Infowars. Is that what we've been reduced to? Infowars!

"Being told to tie your shoelaces, the first step towards tyranny. If you examine a shoe closely enough, you will see a zigzagging map to the FEMA death camps on them. The aglets are the tax-funded crematoriums where patriots' bodies are burned and converted to ashy compost. This compost is then used to bury gold to keep the gold standard from returning. The compost is then stomped on by shoes that use, you guessed it, shoelaces."

Am i wrong CB?

I hope so, but this thread seems to be fostering hatred for President Obama or at the very least to try and see who agree's with the quoted assement.

We are all a little guilty of doing the same thing with other subjects on other threads I'm sure, but still

Be careful what you think it can lead to the wrong assumptions ...

To me it appeas that you are trying to plant a negative seed that Obama is likened to Hitler in that he would do something the second part of your seed thoughts about the Reichstag fire in German history has revealed to you by some late night talk show host that led to Hitler being able to consolidate his power.

Instead of tearing you down CB I would like to see you get some help ...

Have you planted a bad seed?

I'll wanted to walk away ... perhaps I should of

Can anyone else see through this and help CB without making fun of him or tearing him down?

i should clarify my statement before anyone misunderstands...

Frightening thought.

only because of the overwhelming possibility that some Americans are angry enough to act on it.

So, Obama is not just a Commie, he's now a Commie-Nazi.





Go, pennies. Help the puny children that need you.

Obama is nothing like Hitler--he seems to have trouble raising his right hand!

i'll tell you one thing though.

Hitlers big claim to fame is - he is the one leader that all other leaders through subsequent history are compared to.
