Rummy's speech.

This time my lag time for blogging about a neo con foot in mouth is less then a week. I felt I needed to say something about Rumsfeld’s comparing me and others like me to Nazi appeasers.

My first thought is just to throw this link of Keith Olbermann. He rips Rummy a new one. I really was glad I watch Olbermann when I saw his speech, and happier still when on his next show he had Howard Dean respond to Rumsfeld, which I also suggest you watch on the Olbermann site if you missed it.

However I wanted to mention a couple of other things; which is basically how Rumsfeld got it the other way around (as per usual). First if you look at the 14 points of Fascism; you will note that the neo-cons meet most or all of them. Next, an old chestnut- Prescott Bush (grandfather to Shrub) actually was a business partner with the Nazis.
Sadly I do not have enough time to look for a link for my third point- so you’re just gonna have to accept my word- or look for yourself, the fact is during WWII the Nazi appeasers in the U.S. were the REPUBLICAN PARTY, not the Democrats (as FDR was president and had to pull the country kicking and screaming into WWII). I can’t find articles on this, not because they don’t exist but because sooo many pages of google’s search for ‘war appeasers” and republicans bring up Rumsfeld and not anything historic.
