| #18 In the 1920s my grandfather was a safety inspector at a brewery in Austria that was nationalized after the Anschluss and in 1939, Hitler himself had a beer there. I guess that make me a Nazi. |

| #17 IF you do a Google search on "Fort Mimms", you'll learn a lot about a guy named "Red Eagle", my Great-great-several times removed ancestor. Funny thing is, if you read the list of dead from the Fort Mimms massacre and compare it to my high school graduating class of 40 years ago and several hundred miles away, you'd be surprised to find 90% of my class's surnames on that list. The relationships are real - we've traced them. Today we're all friends. I publish a monthly class newsletter read by about 90 (of 130) of them. That's because we have the ability to forgive what happened in the past, build relationships on what happens now, and establish new relationships based on mutual respect. Unfortunately, some societies, some cultures, don't seem to have that ability, and still fight - and lose - wars that were settled 500 years ago. Others continue to believe all human beings are lemmings, bound forever to follow the failings of some ancient ancestor. There's a word for such people - it's IDIOTS. |

| #15 Anti-Gum, what in the world are you babbling about? First of all this isn't Free Republic, in case you haven't noticed. Munich was not about the failure of Western civilization, it was about the failure of multi-culti 3rd Way Soviet-styled peace-obsessed talking shops like the League of Nations and now the U.Frickin'N. Different Times Different Morals=Relativist and situational ethics BS. Morality and truth never change. I have no idea what a "Pre Hilton wanna bies" is and I don't wanna know. |

| #13 Freepers never, ever learn. The PEACE treaty at Munich was one of the clear signs that the now defunct and so called "Western Civilization" was due for a major make-over. DIFFERNT TIMES DIFFERENT MORALS. Jeez.... what a bunch of Pre Hilton wanna bies. |

| #12 Antiwar My grandfather was an Officer in the SS, two of my uncles are burried in a shallow grave somewhere just west of Kursk. Does that make me a Nazi? |

| #11 Antiwar, I think those six books you were reading were the wrong books. |

| #10 AntiW,Bayer pharmacuticals was part a parcel of the Nazi industrial machine(even used concentration camp labor). I sincerly hope you do not use in medications manufactured by Bayer.If you do(by your reasoning)that would mean you are aidding and abetting criminals and by extention are a criminal yourself. |

| #8 Anti-point, since you live down under and are of mick background you prolly have a grandfather who was some malcontent criminal, drunk, pickpocket, or other wise derelict individual - guess that makes you a criminal to. /sarcasm off. |

| #7 I've had ancestors/relatives who were in the IRA, fought on the German side in WWI&WWII, and by family accounts owned slaves and fought for the confederacy - so f*cking what? The stupidity or wrongful actions of my ancestors does not reflect on me. I may not condone what they did but I'm not going to walk around ashamed. Also, its easy to look at every event over 50 yrs ago w/21st century eyes. So, I.E. - What does W have to do w/the acts of his granddad? Aunti-snore you again prove yourself an idiot. |

| #5 No you haven't! Bush's grandfather may well have some business relationship with German industrialists, but then JFKs father was both a government official and unabashedly pro-Nazi, and so was the Pope in the 1930s. All you allege is Bush's grandfather had some relationship with a company that had German stockholders (who your allege were Nazis, although its fairly clear that were Germans guilty by geographic association). The same is doubtless true of you, assuming your super is in a diversified stock fund. What is it with the Left and their complete inability to construct a cogent argument. |

| #1 Dean's a pussy, always wuz. One day, one day these trained killer hands of mine are gonna get around his chicken-like neck. Being a convicted felon I'm not allowed a fire-arm, so it'll have to be mano-mano, I'll allow dean the first 10 head shots. Don't belive me? Light the candle! BTW I've seen a Col Flagg around here... is he DIA, or CID? |
