    WEAK article. Plus Goebbels, Canuckistan and Ponzi.

    Josef Goebbels is one of my most admired inventors. His cynical approach to the gullibility of the public is presentient about our current administration; check out his Bush blueprint: http://www.psywarrior.com/Goebbels.html

    Goebbels' despicability notwithstanding, he and his staff fooled and manipulated a nation into complete destruction. Oh yeah, he marketed hatred and rained terror and death on all of his neighbors and own citizens. And he talked a nation into death-camps, kids ratting out their parents, paranoid populace, and of course, regular suck-up media support.

    THIS horror is what we have to fight, not double-secret anonymous clandestine secret-handshake cults that don't exist.

    I like Canuckistan's answer to this weak article: it's all "X-files" with no teeth, no bravery, all steam. How easy it is to write articles and flap your hands around. Yeah, yeah, every salonaphile that likes to cluck will say I'm doing the same thing. But I'm not getting paid to write this crap. This article is instantly dismissable, and will be forgotten by tomorrow. It stinks of tabloid, while the Weekly World News at least made me smile some. Rove probably has to grab his gut while he's convulsing with laughter at your secret scheme code names.

    ER

    PS: Another guy I admire is Charles Ponzi - who scammed the stupid; now immortalized by latent con-men. Do NOT forget - more than half of you all VOTED Bush (and Pelosi) into office.
