Default "Nazis Run Our Space Program" -- Peace Activist Bruce Gag-Me

"Nazis Run Our Space Program" -- Peace Activist Bruce Gag-Me.

Bruce Gagnon has long been known as an anti-nuke whiner at Cape Canaveral,
where his name is mispronounced 'Bruce Gag-Me'. Seems he's getting on the
call-Bushies-all-nazis meme pretty enthusiastically. And his photograph on
his website shows him wearing a BERET -- enough said!!

NAZI PAST OUR PRESENT
A woman called tonight that has seen our video called Arsenal of Hypocrisy:
The space program and the military industrial complex. She was very moved by
the part of the video that tells the story about the Nazi rocket scientists
brought to the U.S. after WWII in the secret military program called
Operation Paperclip. I first learned about the story when I read the book
Secret Agenda by former CNN investigative reporter Linda Hunt. The book told
in detail how 1,500 top Nazi scientists were smuggled into the U.S. through
Boston and West Palm Beach, Florida. One hundred of them, along with 100
copies of Hitler's V-2 rocket, were brought to Huntsville, Alabama to create
the U.S. space program. Wernher von Braun, the head of Hitler's team that
built the V-1 and V-2 rockets was made the first director of NASA's Marshall
Space Flight Center in Huntsville.

Hasn't the U.S. Army been wearing berets for quite some time now?

Berets- they aren't just for guys named "Marion" anymore

P.S. In defense of Bush- I doubt he can even spell "nazi" ;-)

Marion Morrison wore one in the movie "The Green Berets", as you point out.
Of course, this guy wore one also:

You have to admit that Che had the revolutionary look nailed 100%; this
guy could have caused Jane Fonda to have multiple orgasms by simply
coming within a hundred miles of her.
(Cut to image of Jane writhing in ecstasy on a south Florida beach.) :-P

Yes, to the point that it's become chic for clueless college kids to
worship a brutal thug that they know nothing about.

He looked better that Fidel any day of the week; Fidel just looked
frumpy- he even tried the Che beret, but he just looked like he should
be reciting beat poetry in a Greenwich Village coffee house:

There have been only a few bloodthirsty people who ever knew how to
dress well- here's another one...this outfit just oozes "African
Despot": http://us-africa.tripod.com/mobutu.jpg
Very few people can make leopard fur work for them, Mobuto was one;
Jacqueline Kennedy was another.
No matter what Idi Amin wore, he still looked like he should be standing
by the front door of the Kampala Hilton, doffing his hat to the arriving
guests: http://www.rnw.nl/informarn/assets/images/Idi-Amin.jpg
Rand, we need a look that says "you" in no uncertain terms...that
defines the very essence of your character, as well as your politics and
overall world view...I'm thinking either this

Or this: http://www.monstrula.de/filme/robotmonster/pic9.jpg :-D

I and my fashion consultants will give it all the consideration that
it's due.

Didn't Amin once survive an assassination attempt where a gernade hit him
on the head and bounced forward killing his driver and leaving him
unscathed.

Looks like a villain from "Dr. Who" and one of the villain's evil
henchman.

I guess it depends on which side of the revolution you're on.
These are the same kids that buy gangsta rap records at 10 million copies
a clip. Made folks like '50 Cent' worth a little more than that.

Che wa also a hopeless imcompetent. The way Batista ran things, a
talking dog could have taken over Cuba. After Che'd completely
screwed up the economy there, he was cut loose to "go spread
revolution around the World". He was hopelessly humiliated in the
Congo, and there's some debate about whether it was the CIA, the
Bolivian Army, or his own troops who killed him in Bolivia.
He was the Doug Neidermier of Guerilla Warfare.
