The man Rob Reiner is speaking, of is The AnitChrist. People wake up this has been told to us in the word of God. The Bible. Look around you and see the hurt, and anguish on people's faces. This has been told to us so many years ago. I beg all of you just pick up your Bibles including and get back to basics

When speaking about Hitler, most people leave out the fact that he was appointed to the position of Chancellor by President Hindenburg, and then when Hindenburg died the Nazis surrounded the Reichstag and threatened the deputies with violence if they did not grant Hitler full dictatorial powers. This scenario was the result of the defects of the Weimar Constitution, which had only been in existence for about twenty five years. Such a scenario is unlikely to ever occur in the United States.

The Tea Party already has a charismatic leader. His name is Ron Paul. Before he becomes President he will need to win the nomination of the Republican Party, which seems improbable at this point. But if he does win the nomination, he will then have to get 270 (more than half of the total available) electoral votes to win the Presidency. He will then face extraordinary opposition from Congress on just about every issue imaginable. In short, Hitler never had to accomplish any of these things.

You were the one who brought up the issue as to who is a "real" American, not me. But since you did, I simply - and correctly - answered it. And what makes me feel I'm more of a "real" American than those Hollywood elitists, you ask? Because as I go through my daily life trying to make a better life for me, my family and a better country, my attempt has nothing to do with insulting other groups (Hollywood company excluded) or trying to punish or take away the rights of others - as they do.

haha, OK. whatever you say.

@lekoman Uh, actually I do!

@guyfroml Lots of people in "the rest of America" agree with him. You don't own "America" and you have no more claim to being a "real American" than Rob Reiner does.

[lekoman]

@guyfroml Are you really agreeing with Archie Bunker? Think about that for a second...

@ScottCleve33 I don't remember hate and anger from Obama... his message was that we could do better than we had under Bush. "Change", "hope", none of that sounds like hatred, it sounds like someone who claimed to have a better idea for how to run the country. Turns out he's been a little dodgy on the execution of the plan, but it's unfair to say he preached hate and anger.

he right on what he says in a way you got your conservatives calling liberal socialist and communist but here is a good question how come in this economy the rich conservatives don't support tax hikes? I mean they have the money it doesn't really affect them that much and it goes to people who need it. maybe because like hitler extermination the Jewish people conservatives want to exterminate the middle class and the poor.
