BBQMan-

First, you seem to be addressing your post to "Bugs". I am "buggyone".

2nd - you seem to be knowledgable about William Shirer and he did get his material for Rise and Fall of the Third Reich from wartime papers and documents. Excellent author, too. It is a shame he was blacklisted because he was named in a Communist pamphlet - Red Channels: The Report of Communist Influence in Radio and Television is an anti-Communist tract published in the United States at the height of the Red Scare.


3rd - Scholars everywhere will agree that the Nazis were right-wing extremeists - and hopefully we will never see their kind again. Just because their name has National Democratic Socialist in the title, do not get the idea it is a liberal idea. You could call a pig an opera star on all the billboards and it still could not sing. The actions count - not a name.

Your postings are always interesting and polite without name calling. Village Golfer seems to have a problem with facts, though. It is not right just to put down information and say it is "right because I say so".
