After Hitler, Is Europe Returning to Type?

Veterans’ Tales by Vassar Bushmills

(A timely repeat of some film from the 40s and first shown in Apr, 2017)

“After Hitler” is a 2-part video documentary series about Europe in the five years immediately following World War II, 1945-1949. Each episode is roughly 43 minutes and was produced in 2016 but has the unmistakable feel of a 1940s news reel, although theatres rarely showed newsreels in color.

This is a MUST-SEE, for every generation since it will show you things no book you could read could convey

And especially, for everyone of any age who is watching Europe unravel today, for this offers some context as to why history always seems to repeat itself there.

I have a few words of commentary, below, but watch this first.

Part 1: 1945-47

Part 2: 1947-49

Take note, this is NOT an American production, and much of the film also is not American. It was originally produced in French language and pre-sold for distribution in several languages to Germany’s N24, Italy’s Rai, Norway’s NRK, Spain’s RTVE, Discovery Networks Europe, Quebec’s TV5, Blue Ant Television in English-speaking Canada and Al Arabiya in the Middle East. I saw it the other night through the Discovery Channel, but the above presentations here are without commercial interruption.

Having seen these videos I’m guessing they show a side of the Europeans most people can’t imagine. But with the “erection” of the Iron Curtain it came home to many first-and-second generation immigrants in America that the folks back in the old country were being sold a bill of goods by the new communist overlords and men in communist-controlled Italian, French and Spanish union halls. The peoples of the eastern bloc, Poland, Czechoslovakia, Hungary, the Balkans, were especially susceptible to propaganda about how bad things were for working people in Amerika[…]

Charles Krauthammer, America’s Greatest Tory, a Postscript.

Unified Patriots by Vassar Bushmills

I wrote the essay that follows in Jan 2015, almost 6 months before Donald Trump announced his candidacy. So read in that context, for the conversation was more about the hard solutions being offered by radicals such as Ted Cruz than the soon to be “clown”, Donald Trump.

Who doesn’t hang on every word of Charles Krauthammer? He is conservatism’s finest wordsmith, the last word on just about every outrage of government for the past 15 years. For many, Charles has been America’s Ben Franklin on every public issue, bringing a historic scope to the sociology and psychology of government and politics unmatched by any other commentator.

There’s only one hitch. Ben Franklin went where Charles isn’t willing to go.

Last Friday, while commenting about Mitt Romney getting into the presidential race again, Charles mentioned that if Mitt jumps in, it would split moderate voters (and establishment big money), regretfully hinting that this might, in turn, hand the 2016 nomination to, well you know, one of “them”; any one of a number of wrecking-crew Sam Adams types such as Ted Cruz, Scott Walker, Rick Perry, just to name a few. In Charles’ eyes, these are all are unsuitable for that high office, or for that matter, a good game of cribbage over a good port after dinner.

It seems the one thing that separates Dr Krauthammer from Dr Franklin was Ben’s willingness to break with the King and start up a new nation here, risking life, fortune and sacred honor in the process. For Charles, being asked to cast his lot in with common revolutionaries seems to be a bridge too far.

Consequently, we should be more careful about Charles’ strategic advice, for while the finest of analysts, it’s a dead giveaway about where he is unwilling to go, or see America taken. He is not alone, so learn to look for this status preference in other conservatives, from seniors such as George Will, to a host of newbies such as Erick Erickson. Their rice bowls and public reputations are bound up in the survival of the current King, the Washington Establishment, and can be relied on to pull their punches when the Establishment, and their place in it, are placed in jeopardy[…]

THE AUDITION FOR THE OCCUPY AND ANTIFA 2020 EDITION HAS BEGUN

Antifa, Communism, Democratic Party, Elitism, Occupy Movement, Parkland Shooting


Unified Patriots by Vassar Bushmills

I’ll keep this short.

It’s axiomatic that the American Left, and therefore, also the Democrat Party, NEVER does anything spontaneously.

For those of you new to political optics, you got a taste of this with the aftermath of the Parkland Florida school shooting. Certain teenage “survivors” were prompted to step forward into the spotlight within 24 hours, their lines already practiced, deliver-ready.

Just 24 hours after the shooting, Rush Limbaugh, of all people, remarked about how composed and adult-like the students were, when they were only canned.

Thanks to the ineptitude of CNN and the hamfisted way they handled their “town hall”, with a couple of students letting the cat out of the bag that they had been fed the questions and answers by CNN before the event, the public got to come away understanding who all the players are, and the interactive roles they have with one another: from 1) the front-line gullible, useful idiots, in this case high school kids, but in others, their teachers, to 2) the cynical enablers (for many years now, the media) to 3) the dark leftwing strategists and 4) deep pocket financiers.

You can make your own scorecard at home.

That has been the general scheme of recruitment and operations for the Left since the 1800s, and it amazes me that so many of our honorable political class don’t know who these people really are, and look at them in entirely different, and more dangerously innocent ways.

If you don’t remember Occupy New York, 2011-2012, it is with us still, only a second edition, Occupy the Sequel. It began as a “laboratory-designed” spontaneous counter-agent to the genuinely spontaneous Tea Party, who romped through the 2010 midterms like wild geese in winter, returning House control to the GOP.

(So very long ago, and Republicans’ memories so very short.)

In St Louis, at Washington University hundreds or even thousands of young people were invited to camp out, with the standard inducements, beer, sex and doobies, to attend seminars about how to set up tents in New York, Oakland, and several cities around the county (mostly blue) and engage in political activism at a level they’d never really considered. Many were genuinely jobless, while others simply had degrees in Underwater Basket Weaving, with some talk hints back home that Mom and Dad were a little unhappy, after $75,000, they were still living at home[…]

Where Should the Next Shoe Drop in this Sexual Harassment Narrative?

Just about two weeks ago I floated the idea that perhaps there is a subtext to the manner in which the Harvey Weinstein story has been breaking, namely that women can charge and convict men publicly of sex crimes on their word alone.

So far only powerful white men stand accused, and this will likely continue, as evidenced by increased twitter chatter from academic blogs about the evils of white privilege and masculinity and a widening list of unverified complaints against male celebrities.

These are still largely “Under Hedda’s Hat” sorts of whispers, rumors most people inside Hollywood circles have known about for years, and fans outside that circle had always been dying to hear about since before talkies, almost always falling short of actionable offenses.

But an “everybody knows” reputation is not supposed to be able to put people in jail. Harvey Weinstein seems to be the closest, and a more disagreeable man in any business, I’ve yet to hear about. If the stories are true that he runs around engaging in onanism in front of beautiful women as a way to impress them, with that Alberich quality about him, from Wagner’s “Der Rings des Nibelungen”, who Anna Russell described as “frightfully ugly”, that speaks to a genuinely sick man.

But so far many of those claims are unproved in the legal sense, nor are the likely ever to see the light of day in a courtroom where evidence might be weighed. The only proof we have is found in private cash settlements Harvey has made in the past, which are damning enough, I suppose[…]

“If you will stop telling lies about us, we will stop telling the truth about you”

(This remark wasn’t appropriated from a Republican, but a Democrat, Adlai Stevenson, their 1952 presidential candidate. And it fell flat for the same reason Rep (Cowboy Hat) Frederica Wilson’s accusations against a four-star retired Marine general fell flat last week; it was made against a five-star general and war hero by the name of Dwight Eisenhower. Not even Democrats believed Ike would lie in those days.)

Today, Democrats lie. In fact that’s about all they’ve got. There is not a subject they will not lie about if they think it can gain them a political advantage, or defend them if caught with a smoking revolver in their hand, as the “dossier” case now appears to be.

But unlike 1952, today, we hold these truths about Democrats to be self-evident.

So this is not an indictment of Democrats, but a simple statement of common knowledge. It would take too many pages to list even their major lies, but some of their best are found in the almost monotonous accusations of political opponents for lying, as if lying were the most scandalous of sins instead of the handiest of tools. Today Democrats have acquired the hutzpah to declare that the “dossier” smoking gun they’ve been caught holding to be a mere figment, but even more skillfully, to be able to turn every mistaken statement into a lie, as with Gen Kelly’s recollection of the precise reason Frederica Wilson stood up and showed her ass in Miami in 2015. Seems Kelly’s mistaking the “why” of her grandstanding while correctly noting her classless display of disrespect still amounted to a lie[…]

CBS: Democrats “Embarrassed” by Gruber’s Obamacare Comments

While CBS has finally reported on this, they should have owned up to the mainstream media’s role in the deception being that they are all of the same mindset.

In any event, CBS still has a lot of catching up to do. They’re about three or four videos behind. H/t The Right Scoop.
