| #20 Herb, reread what you wrote and realize they are giving you the benefit of the doubt, not condemning you, but that goes along with an honest assessment of what you wrote and admitting yes, you missed a word. |

| #15 Oh, so now I'm a nazi? Jeez, you people are just like the Left. It's sad, when did you lose your way? If that was in response to my comment, the answer is no, I don't think that at all. When it comes to discussing the Holocaust I think it behooves us who are not on the left to chose our words carefully as opposed to the HitlerHitlerHitler chanting from the "progressives." I said I basically like you Herb. No BS. I'd expect to be checked if my verbiage maybe made me look like I was saying something really awful that I didn't mean at all. I respect the daylights out of your stance against stupid and needless war. Keep telling it, brother. It needs to be heard. But don't bash the very people you are trying to convince. Nobody digs that... |

| #14 I hope you meant "the nazies thought they were ridding the world of vermin." That’s how I read it, M.Murcek. Incidentally, M., last night you submitted The Hitler Thing... without a URL in the Source box or the name of the website in square brackets, so it was deleted. Please resubmit, it looked like an interesting addition to the Rantburg conversation. Thank you! |

| #13 Wow, does he have directions to where some 40-60 million bodies are piled up over the past two+years? |

| #11 Does this shrink have anything to say about Deep State operatives that tried to take down Trump or is he just another shill for the Left/Dems? |

| #10 do these ppl not realize how moronic of a statement is? |

| #9 Sounds like this guy needs to be committed and given hourly ECT until he realizes what reality is. |

| #8 And, Herb. I basically like you. I hope you meant "the nazies thought they were ridding the world of vermin." That missing qualifier changes what you said a whole lot. |

| #7 Well, I am a sick fuck. Until they round me up hold my bourbon and watch this... |

| #6 Yes, the Left increasingly uses disease metaphors to describe Americans. The same as the Nazis described the Jews. That's why they used rat poison to cleanse them, they were ridding the world of vermin. |

| #5 I read long ago that many folks go into psychiatry/psychology because they have serious issues they are hoping to come to grips with themselves.... |

| #4 Looks like the Long March(c) through the institutions has taken down another one to old Soviet levels. |

| #3 Read this. Jennifer Rubin praises the 'antibodies fighting Trump'. Juxtaposing the 'body politic' with the human immune system, she suggests the media and the anti-democracy activism against Trump is somehow saving the polity of America. |

| #1 Political psychiatry has a permanent nasty smell thanks to its history in the Soviet Union. A psychiatrist who fails to recognize this suffers from a pathological lack of self awareness. Jennifer Rubin looks exactly like the angry woman shouting during the two minutes hate in 1984. Looks. Exactly. Like. |
