Daily Kos: If Today's Politics Had Been in WW2 Aug 31st 2012, 21:14 Daily Kos: If Today's Politics Had Been in WW2 by Troubadour Amusing satire. Quote: 1. Economic conservatives Roosevelt is a Communist who is taxing us to death to pay for his war with our German brothers while Uncle Stalin pulls the strings, wasting our nation's wealth defending Bolsheviks while doing their bidding at home. He forces us to compromise with labor unions like a dictator, and undermines private-sector job creation through massive public-sector mobilization, full employment, and resource rationing. Is this the America we want? One where Big Gubmint tells you how much gasoline, rubber, silk, and other things you can have, just so some lazy Socialist frog or pollack won't have to earn a living under superior German management? Where American business owners are stripped of real workers and forced to employ women just so the men can go save some grass-skirt-wearing island monkeys from the far more enterprising Japanese? ... 2. Religious conservatives To all God-fearing Americans, the signs are clear: The Beast has arisen, and his name is Franklin Roosevelt, leading his demonic hosts in the War of Armageddon. The people of Germany, rising up in defense of their homeland against the Jews who murdered Christ and steal all that their big noses can smell, are waging a valiant defense against the forces of Satan arrayed beneath the smoldering red flags of Communism. ... 3. Xenophobe / Racist / Birther conservatives It makes me sick how soft on the Jap infiltrators this administration is. We've got them all rounded up in camps all nice and neat, but instead of doing the obvious thing and shooting them all, what does Roosevelt do? Feeds them! At a time when Real Americans have to ration all sorts of things, we have to give a portion to keep up a bunch of slant-eyed spies sent here to kill us all. ... 4. Republican Congress News article: "For the sixth time in as many months, the GOP-controlled House of Representatives has refused to approve the Roosevelt administration's federal budget requests except their own salaries - which they have increased by 715% - despite immediate consequences for American troops overseas and the citizenry at home. ... 5. Pundits In the ongoing controversy between Nazism and democracy, the rhetoric on both sides has gotten quite heated, with some independents and moderates bemoaning the acrimonious tone of the war. ... Is there no room for middle ground between those who favor liberal democracy and those who favor exterminating minorities and militarily conquering neighbors? ... 6. Naderites / Dumb Lefties / Truthers Down with Poservelt! Down with the capitalist shill who forces workers to make concessions to Big Business for the sake of his war machine! What the hell are we fighting for - clearly not enough effort was made to make peace with Hitler, and besides the US government is no different from the Third Reich. ... 7. Libertarians / Militia Nuts / Anarchists While it can't be denied that Franklin Roosevelt is a treasonous, thieving Communist dictator who should be hanged from a tree, it must be acknowledged that the Nazis also deviate substantially from ideals of liberty and should be duly rebuked for their misbehavior. ... If we agree to sabotage our nation's wasteful and tax-heavy war effort so that Germany can secure itself in Europe, the Third Reich agrees to provide us with funding for a Second American Revolution to overthrow the current left-wing government in America. ...
