Strange that Dershowitz would use the Republicans and Hitler in the same sentence when talking about hate.

What's strange, not really since double standards abound, is whenever a Republican ever compares anyone on the left with Hitler, even in a circumspect manner, he's excoriated. But no, not Dershowitz, because he's from the left and their motives can't be questioned now can they?

What I'm finding a revelation though is how easily fooled the human animal is over its history. Nothing ever really changes when it comes to human nature. The really astute observers of same have always figured this out to mankinds' eventual chagrin more often than not. Sensationalism, rumors, demagogery, character assassination, abuse of power, and such get more of the desired reaction that reasoned thought. This is how in our lifetimes we've witnessed such injustices as we've seen today. Both sides have been guilty of such acts in the past but today is witness to unprecedented practices of this art coming from the Dems and the left in general toward anyone not carrying their water.

Remember Mr. Smith Goes To Washington, Citizen Kane, Bob Roberts et. al. movies where the aforementioned practices were trumpeted as an example of how the right destroys their principled foes? Well you can flip this around 180 degrees to reflect what's happening today as practiced by the left towards their principled foes.

Dear Darrell:

Sir, I was just curious and had to ask you the following 3 questions:

1. How do you feel about your fellow republicans' decision to change the name of the Republican National Party to the American Nazi Party? (by your fellow republicans I mean Tom Delay, Dick Army, Bob Barr, Henry Hyde and his 12 dogs, etc.).

2. Republicans of the late 1990's seem to often have extreme out of body experiements (as proven by their genuine disconnection from the main stream American society). How often do "you" go through such out of body experiements?

3. And last but not the least, dont you have anything better to do but to write idiotic comments regarding politics on the net?

Best Regards,

Addi Jamshidi
