All true, though Hitler did worry about the whole problem of Jesus being a Jew. He would have jettisoned Christianity if the populace had been willing, but the Kinder Kirche Kuche thing worked better, so they stuck with that.

Ah, Godwin... what a great way to start the new year: reminiscing about Hitler.

Garmisch-Partenkirchen is quite lovely, what with the Olympic ski jumps right in town, and the cable car to great skiiing on the mountain above town. Not to mention the Dunkel Weissbeir on tap in the pubs. Mmmmmm.

None of this explains the current Pope's fondness for little red Prada slippers.

They get a little touchy about the 10 million Russians that died back then. I used to hang out with some Russian students in college and I watched some poor idiot tell them how the USA saved the world.

Funny how people like this never seem to realize that "social Darwinism" is just the plain old classism and "let them eat cake!"-ism of the rich against the poor/racism that was around before Darwin was even a glimmer in a newt-like amphibious ancestor's eye. Or that Darwin always strenuously railed against "social Darwinism."

It needs to be said again: The National Socialist Party was socialists what the People's Republic of China is to Republicans.

That would have to occur after Stan Lee traveled back in time to take credit for writing the Gospels, yes?

But doesn't that contaminate the whole batch of waste paper?

Maybe you'd better fish it out and, I dunno, wait for the local hazmat turn-in day.
