Mike, I found and re-copied that link -- this one works on our computer right now (even though it looks the same as yours): video.google.com/videoplay?docid=1251628960376247583I love the premise and what I've heard so far. I'm out of town this weekend, so I'll post here again after considering all of it sometime next week. |

I don't know why my link to the video works and Mike's did not, but I thank him for steering me to Thom Hartmann's essay outlining the many parallels between Adolph Hitler's and George W. Bush's rise to power and their, uh, approach to public policy.
The video, taped in October 2006, comes from an article he wrote in 2003. It might seem out of date after Obama's election, but the machinery of deception and oppression Bush assembled is still in place. So are Blackwater's profits. And the economic reckoning Hartman foretells near the end of his 21 minutes arrived in 2008.
We need to address the mindset that allowed both regimes to attain their riches -- and try to achieve a national truth instead.
