There Is A Reason They Are Called “Smoking Nazis”…

A wealth of overlooked yet frightening literature concerning the Nazi crusade against smoking provides a clear parallel to contemporary developments and an alarming warning that state restriction of personal habits is the pre-cursor to dictatorship.

Beginning in the early 1930’s, as part of the Nazi agenda for racial purity, Hitler spearheaded a national campaign to ban smoking in all public buildings, and denounced the practice as a betrayal of the fascist drive for bodily purity.

Basically they are just another brand of hater… No different than any other bigot.  And the state uses that hatred for control.

But the greatest menace to our civilization today is the conflict between giant organized systems of self-righteousness — each system only too delighted to find that the other is wicked — each only too glad that the sins give it the pretext for still deeper hatred and animosity. — Herbert Butterfield

Thank you, Patrick Buchanan…

I sent an email to MSNBC when they anounced that they were dropping Imus over his rough brand of humor. Patrick Buchanan does an excellent job of setting the record straight …

What was the term the I-Man used? It was “ho’s,” slang for whores, a term employed ad infinitum et ad nauseam by rap and hip-hop “artists.” It is a term out of the African-American community. Yet, if any of a hundred rap singers has lost his contract or been driven from the airwaves for using it, maybe someone can tell me about it.If the word “ho’s” is a filthy insult to decent black women, and it is, why are hip-hop artists and rap singers who use it incessantly not pariahs in the black community? Why would black politicians hobnob with them? Why are there no boycotts of the advertisers of the radio stations that play their degrading music?

Answer: The issue here is not the word Imus used. The issue is who Imus is – a white man, who used a term about black women only black folks are permitted to use with impunity and immunity.

MSNBC and CBS are run by hypocrites and fools. Time for the I-Man to find some new digs…

What makes it so plausible to assume that hypocrisy is the vice of vices is that integrity can indeed exist under the cover of all other vices except this one. Only crime and the criminal, it is true, confront us with the perplexity of radical evil; but only the hypocrite is really rotten to the core. — Hannah Arendt
