#11  Clem, it seems to me this essay from a few years ago provides a useful perspective for this discussion:

Günter Grass and the Dark Night of Fascism

European Conservative, I think you will find the link useful for future discussions as well, if you are not familiar with Tom Wolfe’s 1976 essay, “The Intelligent Coed’s Guide To America”. If you are, his Günter Grass anecdote nails it for me.

#4  EC, be more specific. Although Freisler sent men to their deaths, that it was a kangaroo court just like Sullivan's is different only in matter of degree.

#1  The D.C. Courts are showing their asses. They have created an abortion out of justice. The Appeals court was comprised of 70% Clinton and Obama appointments. Frickin bought kangaroo court.
