    of course if true the liberal would not be so afraid to present her best example.

    any reason to think that? China has most capitalism and fastest growth in human history at 7% for 30 years. Look at USA /Europe. France has 65% of our GDP and
    the per capita income of Arkansas about our poorest state. Even Krugman says Europe has Eurosclerous. Do you understand?

    actually Nazis and fascists were big govt socialists. The right is for very very tiny govt as per the Constitution.

    Yes, we are for a size of Government just large enough to function at a high level, not so high it binds us to deals made in DC by mainly Democrats. Few recall the decades this country suffered with Democrats running the Government. I only consider the president as the CEO that carries out orders of the two houses of congress. Since 1932, for almost all of the time, it was Democrats making laws and programs. They are to blame for the mess we are now in.

    yes he gave his very very new opinion; some thought some of it or all of it made sense and some didn't. People were free to decide on their own just like you are when you watch a TV commercial. See you can understand it after all.

    Most Americans are in the dark as to what Hitler did for Germany prior to his wars. Hitler was a classic Big Government spender.

    yes and Caesar, the previous God, was a better God who taught it was cool to enslave the world and go to the Coliseum to be entertained by watching people being eaten alive while Jesus and martin Luther taught 1 billion or so to obey the 10 Commandments!! You're a typical liberal with the depth of a small child.

    I am afraid you are corralled by your American form of understanding.

    Nazi school of government is left wing. Nazis came together as one huge community. The fought Stalin but not due to politics, they did it to boost the German economy. They made a gross mistake thinking of the Soviets as backwards and easy to conquer. As to being brutal to the people, in general Hitler was brutal to the conquered where Stalin was brutal to his own citizens. Even his troops feared him and often got shot in the back for not moving forward. Hitlers troops had enormous pride and enormous presence as fighters. You seldom see where Hitler shot his own army over fighting. But what do I know since I served in the American Army in Germany and heard many stories when there plus I studied this for a very long time.

    Well, that GOD as you put this, was over a small population as the global population at the time goes.

    Actually, can you name one thing done by the Jews GOD that you actually believe that you condemn him for?

    Any examples of the bad GOD? Only things you accept that happened if you don't mind though.

    I don't believe that this obviously fictitious god did anything. He was a petty, cruel, narcissistic, insecure prick of a fictitious character created by those who wrote and subsequently revised the Old Testament. My educated guess is that this character was created by power hungry a$$ holes in order to dupe hapless dunces into doing their bidding. For example, I don't believe that a supposedly wise omnipotent being would tell a father to drag his son up a mountain and stab him to death...or tell a bunch of people to smear lambs blood on their doors unless they wanted their first born son executed, but they should not tell their neighbors what was up or give them some blood so their kid wouldn't be killed....Things like that...I was "educated in Catholic school and by the second grade, after hearing about some of this insane idiocy, I knew instinctively that it was a bunch of crap concocted by scumbags. What amazes me is that there are so many seemingly intelligent people who still buy it..I got in big trouble with the nuns who called my parents in and chastised me when I was 7 or 8. From that point on I learned to just roll my eyes and keep my mouth shut whenever this type of bull $hit was being spewed. Cheers

    OK
    You have a non belief in GOD that you put the blame for on a Book, known as the Old Testament.

    I look at Earth, this marvelous Earth and the entire universe and know for certain it was created and it took one awesome power to do that. I have labeled this awesome power as GOD. Does not need the Bible to accept GOD.

    I did not say that I do not believe in a divine presence in this universe. I certainly do. I simply do not believe the ridiculous garbage written in the Jewish Bible or that an entity like the one described in that text actually controls the universe. Whatever awesome power that is responsible for creating the world is not a petty, jealous, vengeful, insecure little prick like the one created by those who wrote the Bible...And whatever or whoever is in charge would be disgusted with today's Republican Party and the spineless Democrats as well. The op which suggests that Jesus was a Republican is a real steaming bunch of crap.

    Before the war started, Hitler took Germany from the brink of financial collapse to one of the world's most powerful and productive countries. If not for WW II, Germany would have been been a huge success under Hitler.

    Dodge noted. I take said dodge as an admittance that you cannot or will not back your previous claim that the word of Jesus is just opinion.

    What your are trying to say is that govt expanded while they were president because there was not enough support to shrink it. Do you understand?

    Did you know that under our Constitution the president is not the govt?

    sure the universe was created but that has nothing to do with how we should behave on it. We have Jesus and Republicans for that

    if freedom did not come from Jesus, who taught us not to worship earthly liberal Gods like Caesar, then where did it come from?

    Oh gosh no. Do you ignore the rest of Earth?

    There is no reason though why we can't return to live with GOD. We too might even get to create some universe. Would you like doing that?
