Here's a link to Newt Gingrich's Weekly Standard Post. http://weeklystandard.com/Content... Per below
AEI Quote: "In an NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll, 29% described Russia as more of an ally and 49% more of an adversary"
I classify Heidegger as one of the dark thinkers (philosophers). Along with Hegel and Marx. Can't not call him a philosopher. He fairly is.
Below link is about German Philosopher Martin Heidegger. In 1933, Heidegger embraced the Nazi Party, 6 years after publishing "Being & Time"

AEI Quote: "Despite Communism's demise and the Obama administration's desire to hit the reset button, Americans fear Russia's rise"
It is philosophy that has given us capitalism, communism, socialism, totalitarianism, etc. We can trace socialism back to Plato, and beyond.
Reason for use of nazi word abuse comes from complete "ignorance", and ill intent. Nazi party leans more towards extreme right. Google it.

RT @joebrooks RT @BreakingNews: CBS News sources: President Obama is giving Gen. McChrystal nearly all addl troops he wants in Afghanistan.
@NYTimeskrugman You write: "Inquiring minds want to know". Why use of Nazi over commie? (see above)
Quote: "With 68,000 Americans already there, the Afghan surge would mean there would be 100,000 U.S. troops in Afghanistan"
Looks like @SarahPalinUSA may be preparing to return to Twitter.

Convinced the interview is planned. Fav example. At 34:10 in the video, the camera zooms in, just in time for Murdoch to slap his knee.

Earlier I posted the Sky News interview with Rupert Murdoch. It's a revealing interview. Clearly Murdoch is highly intelligent and friendly.
Krugman: "general observation — is that “Nazi” is the preferred term of abuse from today’s right wing"
@Janeile - Obama's czars. You mean, the same ones Glenn Beck (Fox News/News Corp) rants and raves about? Anita Dunn & Mao?
@Janeile - Timing of this discussion is good. 20th anniversary of fall of Berlin Wall, and as it turns out @mgorbachev is now on Twitter.
@Janeile - Pretty simple. Communist Party USA was founded in 1919. Based in NYC. At best, there are 15,000 members, but likely much less.
@Janeile - And remember, while Glenn Beck fear mongers away on czars, his boss Rupert Murdoch was in China last month schmoozing Hu Jintao.
@Janeile - Lets put 15,000 (likely much less) American communists in perspective. Enough to fill a mid sized city sports arena. Just sayin'.
