Weisshaupt, crossposting is welcome, and in fact, encouraged. Content is the driver of the forum, and original content is an important component. Having discussions about the thoughts and ideas of our friends is a somewhat different activity than having discussions about the news. So please, feel free. As Pan said, if there is a way to slip a "cross-posted at" link to this forum into your postings elsewhere, all the better, but certainly not a requirement. Another thing might be to post a relevant opening paragraph or two here, linking the rest - also, not a requirement.
Re; your piece, you draw some good analogies. Myself, I think Godwin's Law is bullsh*t. It is meant to make people feel ridiculous for making comparisons to Hitler. But in my opinion a society that is careening toward the cliff of National Socialism cannot afford to be afraid to draw those comparisons. So good on you.
I only have one small issue:
[blockquote]"I DO NOT think that Obama has the same intents, goals or ends as Hitler and the Nazis had."[/blockquote]
I'm not so sure. I'm not afraid to say that the darkness in this man's words and actions lead me to believe he would be capable of anything.
And I wonder - was Hitler even Hitler in the beginning? Or did events converge with his megalomaniacal personality to create the demon we know as Hitler? What matters is not whether Hitler planned his atrocities, as you seem to be suggesting Obama would be doing now if her were Hitlerian. What matters that Hitler had evil in his soul that came to the fore and worked its will.
