The "Hitler Syndrome" a/k/a Authoritarian Personality complex has been incorporated into the Republican party as a cold calculated political strategy. It''s affect on all America spheres of civic and economic life has been so devastating, the country is now struggling for it's survival. And despite the ruins it has left behind, there is now an attempt to use intentional deception in formerly run state mass media to put them back into power.

1. Conservatives, in the early 19th century,
could bill themselves as the advocates of common sense.
Conservatives now are just a bunch of hysterical shits.

2. The background music
in this video is annoyingly loud and makes it hard to hear what is being said.

4. thanks Joanne
keep posting on this subject. I think this is the most important issue we can address today. The GOP hasn't gone far right by accident. It's where they've been wanting to be for some time. They see an opportunity now. This conversation needs to be in MSM but nobody seems to be willing. Scares the hell out of me what we might get in 2012 if Obama doesn't open his eyes. People want a strong leader and can be easily decieved as to what that looks like.

It's why they have the mouthpieces like Limbaugh, Beck and Hannity. Constantly pushing their agenda every day. We hear Jon Kyl, Boehner, Bachman, Rand Paul along with many others pushing hard against the middle-class in support for corporatism. Thanks so much.

5. I like the idea of the examples, the music interferes with everything. Perhaps
younger people can compartamentalize to catch it all. Luckily, I heard the straight delivery of Dean's talk yesterday. But, I think examples are good. Hagee and Schwarzenager are perfect.

But this video gets at how heroes and nazi styled authritarianism go together. Repeating the torture aspect is very appropriate.

I would vote for a different track of music or some tricks and considerations of volume. Two audios fading in and out is the max for simultaneous listening.
