Several years ago Tom Hartman wrote a paper on the subject of the American Fuhrer. It is worth reading.

The White House is full of Jews, the chief of staff is Jewish, Scooter Libby, the Neocons. See, underneath, all humans are the same whether Jew or goy.

Surely what's fascinating here is not how Fuhrer-like Bush is becoming, but the number of people who should know better who seem to be queuing up to help him destroy the Constitution, break international conventions and commit war crimes?

The Holocaust after all came about through the offices of the thousands of Eichmanns, who themselves never killed a single jew but without whose organizational and bureaucratic 'skills' mass murder on that scale would have been impossible.

Daniel Goldhagen makes a brilliant case in his book Hitler's Willing Executioners as to why this should have been the case in the particular socio-cultural case of 20th century Germany, but the US has none of these excuses - the whole federal zeitgeist is steeped in the rhetoric of democracy, freedom and inalienable rights. So how come so many (particularly Republican) functionaries, lawyers and politicians have been so eager to do away with what might be called the very soul of America, at the same time as proclaiming in increasingly fanatical belief in exactly those things which are being destroyed?

Ahhh, yes, When will the media lose it's fear of the President and start telling the people what is really going on...the other media, not you MOther Jones.

All these exposes, all these crimes. When will the Fuhrer be relegated to his bunker. Silly Democratics, Silly Media, When will it all go up in flames.

Right on, Herr Otto. Bushland uber alles!

Frau Laura , you do not understand how the Reich operates, once the Fuhrer makes the decision, everybody else fall into line. The Fuhrer can make legal decisions on what laws mean even thought he has not been to law school. This is one of the privileges of being Der Fuhrer. Sig Hail Bush. Remember Executive Order 52 where the Fuhrer has given himself "dictorial" powers? Go read books about how the Fuhrer operated and then you will more understand this Administration and Reich Marshal Cheney(aka Hermann Goering).
