		<description>Around 7:00 pm today, I made a post here, and I got a message saying it was awaiting &#039;moderator approval,&#039; but it&#039;s not showing up, and it&#039;s now 11:45 pm. How long does it take for a post to be approved at this blog?</description>

		<description>Please do not refer to Johnson of LGF as a &quot;conservative.&quot; I don&#039;t know what he is, but he ain&#039;t conservative.

For the past year or two, he has been banning actual conservatives from his site.

In the past few months, he has been banning social conservatives and Christians whose only fault was to speak up and disagree with him about Darwinism and Evolution.

People who know Johnson say he used to be a liberal, but after 9/11, he became a neo-conservative regarding national defense and the war on terror.

But he supports homosexuality and abortion on demand - he&#039;s not a true conservative. 

He&#039;s also been on a strange path lately, what with accusing former online friends, such as Robert Spencer of Jihad Watch of being Neo-Nazis, etc.

Johnson has apparently had a mental breakdown or something, I don&#039;t know.

I&#039;m a conservative, and I don&#039;t visit his blog hardly at all anymore, unless someone at another one says, &quot;You just have to go look at such and such a post at LGF.&quot; Other than that, I stay away from LGF.</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;2. Charles Johnson took umbrage at the comparison, and rightly so. America is not the Third Reich, and never has been.&lt;/i&gt;

But according to Charles Johnson and his idiot readers it will be!!!! OMG!!!

Of course we must all take into account Dr. Cruel&#039;s remarkable treatise on the obvious: 

&lt;blockquote&gt;Two critical elements of history - at least any coherent history - are those of time and fact. It is ridiculous, for example, to confuse the behavior of Americans during the 20th century regarding, say, the British, with events from the late 18th and early 19th century ...&quot;&lt;/blockquote&gt;

DrCruel advises us: 

&lt;blockquote&gt;If you are inclined to berate this “lizard”, or defend your own ludicrous twisting of the historical record to serve present political ends, please keep these issues in mind.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

And please do remind Charles, as well that comparing the events of 1930s Germany to 2008 America are apt to yield similarly distorted and politically suspect results. Unless, of course, you want to argue that America electing a black man president would so rip the very fabric of space and time that comparing Obama to Hitler is actually a-okay. That would make perfect sense. 

Oh and Haplo, no doubt we&#039;ll be seeing you repost this at LGF: 

&lt;blockquote&gt;The point is that when your “criticism” is equating someone with Nazi’s, you have moved past the point of a reasonable, useful criticism of someones position into the realm of intentionally attempting to inflame.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Please let us know when you&#039;ve done that. We&#039;ll all be so proud.</description>

		<description>Here&#039;s a guy who has his history down cold: 

&lt;blockquote&gt;When the new brown shirts begin to knock down doors they may need Israel&#039;s help as did the European Jews in the &#039;30s and &#039;40s.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Someone want to remind us all when Israel was founded?</description>

		<description>And more from the comments: 

&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;b&gt;Like Mein Kampf, Obama is telling us what he is going to do. we needto listen. this guy is going to have roving bands of toughs with armament effing people over.&lt;/b&gt;

this is no joke on what color are the shirts.

Over at michelemalkin.com there is a treatise on mass hypnosis. It describves the techniques of a Dr Ericksen M.D.
check it out . Obama has used all these thing to create these numbed robots. You ask them a question and they say no it is not that way. Even if Obama said it two hrs before.

those young toughs in the video are paramilitary and saying the nme of the job they wil have and thanking Obama.It is like he is going to issue fake degrees too. &lt;b&gt;these kids look like they&#039;d follow orders to break you in half. Or me. What will you do when some come to your door? or my door?&lt;/b&gt;
not funny
&lt;/blockquote&gt;

I mean, here we have a guy stoking all manner of racial fear and hatred while challenging others to act violently in their own defense, all while telling us that it&#039;s Obama who is just like Hitler. 

Awesome.</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;&quot;...it simply pointed out that Sen. Obama, like many left-wing folk, compared this county to Nazi Germany, more proof of his FAR left ideology, which I see as dangerous for this great Nation.&quot;&lt;/i&gt;

Let me ask you something, Stonemason. The LGFers on the other thread are comparing an Obama presidency and those who vote for it and support it to Nazis and Nazi Germany -- and Obama hasn&#039;t even been elected yet. 

What, in your mind, is that proof of?</description>

		<description>I simply can&#039;t stay away from the mental car wreck that is the horrific 700 plus comment pile up at that LGF post. Here&#039;s one more: 

&lt;blockquote&gt;The SS was a part of SA used originally as Hitler&#039;s bodyguards. They were all that left of SA after the &quot;Night of long knives&quot;. So, in a way, they were a non-military security organization that was just as strong and as well funded as the military. Exactly what Obama wants to create. Pretty scary, isn&#039;t it?&lt;/blockquote&gt; 

Yup. It&#039;s scary alright. But not how this idiot means. 

Creating an American version of the Nazi SS is EXACTLY what Obama wants to do? Seriously? 

You LGF dipshits and the regular trolls here want to defend this shit? 

But how can you exactly without also repudiating everything you&#039;ve just said criticizing Obama for his comparison? Hell, at least Obama was referring to things that actually happened and weren&#039;t just figments of his paranoid imagination.</description>

		<description>For some reason I&#039;ve been reading through that thread and I am struck by how much the LGFers are ready to see themselves as victims of a fascist Obama presidency. 

Dig this morong: 

A fellow once told me (a Black man, if it matters) that every serious problem he had had been visited upon him by people wearing suits and ties or uniforms of some kind.

I&#039;m feeling that fellow.&lt;/blockquote&gt; 

Ok. Now if the big crime that Obama committed was making too strong a comparison to make a point about American segregation, surely it&#039;s the same thing to predict, predict mind you!!!, that being a conservative under Obama will comparable to being black in the segregated South. I mean WTF you morons!!!</description>

		<description>Here&#039;s a classic comment from the bottom of that bottomless pit of a comment thread: 

&lt;blockquote&gt;Hell, while the military is out invading Pakistan, some one has to be guarding the re-education camps and the gulags. In order to recognize fellow LGFers, maybe we all should wear lizard pins (just a thought).&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Let the paranoid, self-victimization ring!</description>

		<description>For every stupid fucking idiot moron in these threads who has blown a gasket over Obama comparing American segregation to Nazi Germany, please explain to me why it is, on the other hand, perfectly acceptable to compare a potential NOT EVEN FUCKING HAPPENED YET Obama presidency to Nazi Germany:

		<description>AO,

Really, what&#039;s been the lack of historical knowledge? &quot;Perspective&quot; of course is debatable, but historical facts are less so. Kindly point out which historical fact has been misstated.</description>

		<description>This has been the funniest ever. The lack of historical knowledge or perspective has seldom been as well illustrated here as on this thread.  

LOL, The Basement Quaker rises to the occasion.
&quot;AO’s defense of America rests on the premise that one instance of subjugation of an entire ethnic group–Jim Crow–was not as bad as another example–the Holocaust.&quot;

You are saying it is the same?  I realize you hate your country but even so, I would have thought you had at least some grasp of the concepts here.  I wasn&#039;t defending America, she hasn&#039;t needed a defense.  Slavery has existed on this planet for thousands of years right up to this very present day.  We got rid of slavery and paid a high price to do it.  

No Quaker, Jim Crow wasn&#039;t as bad as the Holocaust.  Not even close.</description>
		<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This has been the funniest ever. The lack of historical knowledge or perspective has seldom been as well illustrated here as on this thread.  </p>
<p>LOL, The Basement Quaker rises to the occasion.<br />

		<description>I read what Little Green Footballs wrote and I haven&#039;t seen that much juggling of nonsense since I don&#039;t know when. He tries to play the game of exact interpretation but it only makes him look false.

The climate of the country during Brown vs. Board of Education can be compared to that of Nazi Germany. If Mr. Johnson doesn&#039;t think so, then maybe he should have a conversation with those who had to deal with the situation during that time. Or the relatives of those lynched and maimed during that time. 

But that would require doing something other than watching the folks on Fox News talk down to black people (that is unless they invite someone like Jesse Lee Peterson or Star Parker willing to earn that right wing think tank money)</description>

		<description>In fairness to jdubya, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.priestsforlife.org/pressreleases/08-02-25-king-planned-parenthood.htm&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;a niece of MLK&#039;s&lt;/a&gt; has made her name on the right by falsely claiming that MLK was a Republican and opposed to reproductive choice. In fact, MLK received Planned Parenthood&#039;s Margaret Sanger award and deputized his wife to deliver a speech that concluded, &quot;The Negro constitutes half the poor of the nation. Like all poor, Negro and white, they have many unwanted children. This is a cruel evil they urgently need to control. There is scarcely anything more tragic in human life than a child who is not wanted. That which should be a blessing becomes a curse for parent and child. There is nothing inherent in the Negro mentality which creates this condition. Their poverty causes it.&quot;</description>

		<description>God, how I can&#039;t wait for an Obama administration. The joy I will feel when all the corrupt, law-breaking, lying white thieves are repaid for all the sins they committed against people of color in this country can&#039;t be put into words. Charles and all of his muslim-hating racist bigots being at the mercy of a black man that will FORCE those white pigs to pay their fair share warms my heart. Obama/Biden &#039;08! Get ready white pigs, your day is coming.</description>
