I'MMA LET YOU FINISH
We are poor little lambs who have lost our way,
bah bah bah...
Deutschland, deuschland uber alles!
THERE, I SAID THE N WORD!
Ich bin ein Eli!
Ivy - Oh, god, ROTFLMAO!
Is this before or after the rituals that involve naked buttocks?
My son saw that line.
It sent his toy-playing mind into overdrive.
"Dad, does that say panzer tank?"
"No. It says panzer." I replied.
"Isn't panzer's german tanks?" he followed.
"Yes" I replied.
"Is it a tiger tank?"
"I don't know."
"Is it a king tiger tank?"
"I don't know."
"Do they have bazooka joes?"
"Their not bazooka joes, just bazookas and no they don't have any it was just a song they were singing."
"Can I hear it?"
"I don't have the song."
"Can you download it?"
"No, they only had a few of the words from the song. Panzer was one of them."
"Thats dumb, they should have bazookas too."
AND ON AND ON AND ON AND ON AND ON AND ON AND ON.........
Then one day the human race evolved into beings of floating light unrestrained by the conditions of the Earth.
..except for one household in particular....
"But dad why didn't they have king tigers, those tanks were cool.."
"I don't know."
"Dad can I play mechwarrior now. I don't want you to watch stupid pages again..."
AND ON AND ON AND ON AND ON AND ON..........
I hope everyone has a safe weekend
MYOB'
.
I told you Yale had special ed.
northsylvania - LOL - and it kind of sounds like it has ROTC, too.
Maybe this is a place to ask - what's the term for people who hold violence and hatred and control and power as as admirable.
The Taliban, Sadaam, hateful Yale wankers, governor bush the executioner, Osama, militias, Republicans fighting hard against civil rights...
In my mind, I lump together Stalin and Ayatolla Khomeini, I consider them right-wingers.
But people say, "Communist right-winger? Wrongo, boy."
Yeah, sociopath fits, but I feel there's a better word or phrase.
EssJay - Tyrants? Uh, fascists?
Autocrats? Dictators? Thugs? Anti-liberals?
Akshully, boys and girls, it's an old YAF songbook. Including gems like "Fightin' Joe McCarthy" (to the tune of "Oh, Susannah"), and, to the tune of "Fa la la la la":
"Wield we now our sharp stilletti (fa la la ...) carve the pinks into confetti"
OK, not quite Draft Dodger Rag ...
Kimmitt - I like "Anti-liberals."
Gets my vote.
Thugs! Perfect to my ear!
Joe Stalin and Khomeini were thugs! Tim Mcveigh was a wanker thug. Goebbels and his thug offspring Rove…
Yeah, "exhuberant Yalies", my ass. Those are some right-wingers with misplaced delusions of grandeur. I'm sure there are some Yalies who are disgusted by that.
"Because we are the brown soldiers,
for Adolf Hitler ziehn we in combat.
Because we are the brown soldiers,
and we fight for liberty and for right.
We struck the Marxists,
red front and pacifists.
For world master of all states,
our thing is holy and fair. "
Song from 30s Germany.
a
"Hitler, he only had one ball
Goering had two but very small
Himmler, had something sim'lar
And only Goeballs had no-balls at all."
Listed as varient #6. Sung to "Colonel Bogey's March" kind of OT but I have a headache and my medicine is making me a little silly.
Ah, those exuberant Yalies.
Ja, deine vitality sind inspiring.
Obergruppensturmbannfuhrer MisterX
What? What is this? No Panzerlied?
If there's storm or it snows,
Or the sun smiles on us,
The day is burning hot,
Or the night icy cold.
Dusty are the faces,
But joyful is our mind,
Joyful our mind;
Our tank roars ahead
Within the storm wind.
Then there's Horst Wessel Lied
Die Fahne hoch die Reihen fest geschlossen
S.A. marschiert mit ruhig festem Schritt
|: Kam'raden die Rotfront und Reaktion erschossen
Marschier'n im Geist in unsern Reihen mit :|
Die Straße frei den braunen Batallionen
Die Straße frei dem Sturmabteilungsmann
|: Es schau'n auf's Hakenkreutz voll Hoffnung schon Millionen
Der Tag für Freiheit und für Brot bricht an :|
Zum letzten Mal wird nun Appell geblasen
Zum Kampfe steh'n wir alle schon bereit
|: Bald flattern Hitler-fahnen über allen Straßen
Die Knechtschaft dauert nur mehr kurze Zeit :|
Die Fahne hoch die Reihen fest geschlossen
S.A. marschiert mit ruhig festem Schritt
|: Kam'raden die Rotfront und Reaktion erschossen
Marschier'n im Geist in unsern Reihen mit :|
When a hostile tank
appears ahead of us,
Full throttle is given
And we close with the foe!
It's not our life we value,
For the army of our realm,
Army of our realm
For Germany to die
Is honor most high.
And if we are abandoned
By that unfaithful luck,
And if we don't return
To our homeland again,
If a bullet strikes us down,
If our fate calls on us,
Yes calls on us,
Then our tank will give us
A metal grave
With thundering engines,
Fast as a lightning bolt,
The enemy engaging,
Within our armor plates.
Ahead of our comrades,
In the battle, all alone,
We stand all alone
That's how we strike deep
Into the enemy's ranks.
With obstacles and tanks
The foe blocks our path,
We laugh about it
And simply pass them by.
And if ahead guns threaten,
Hidden in the yellow sand,
In the yellow sand,
We seek out our way,
That no one else found.
Now that's a Panzer marching song. Music to oppress by.
Aww, you get me all teary-eyed.
Seems like Operation Paperclip payed off after all.
Root 'em out Joe,
Root 'em out Joe,
Send them all back
To icy Mos-co-ow!
Root 'em out Joe!
Root 'em out Joe!
Send them all back
To their commie a-go-go!
What's that I see
On the horizon?
I see an eagle!
And I see some bi-zon.
These things are America...
To me!
Root 'em out Joe!
(Repeat)
Regret it! Why, not a damn day goes by that I don't regret it...
Panzers, huh? Didn't Bubba Clinton name one of his cruise missile campaigns against Iraq 'Operation Desert Fox'?
You know, as in Afrika Korps, Erwin Rommel, Nazi General?
Not a squeak from you freaks then. Harrumph, harrumph.
Andrew
Rommel fought the Allies- but he died trying to kill Hitler.
So we're Freaks? This is the Neanderthal reaction to modern humans.
Re: nomenclature, I still prefer "regressives" (the opposite of "progressives").
Just want to point out that the Yale Debating Society (or Political Union) has FIVE branches. In our defense, we're not all loons. Just remember, most Yalies (post-1969) are smart, but that doesn't mean we're not dangerous.
The two left: Progressives and Liberals (nice solid American names)
The middle: Independents (respectable group if a little mushy-minded)
And the right:
The Tories (talk about fighting the last war)
and
The PARTY OF THE RIGHT (who end every club dinner with Deutschland Uber Alles - at least while I was on campus - they thought it was "funny")
For every Thomas, there's a Bill and Hill.
For every GWB, there's a Howard Dean.
Don't tar us all with the same brush, just because we didn't stop the fascists while we were young. We can only try to serve the republic as best we can with what we DID manage to learn at Yale.
This is why I invented the "Rove Exception" to Godwin's Law.
"Panzers STEAMING" ? How quaintly old-fashioned.
But really, this is not a joke.

Aren't there Jewish organizations or, you know, rational people on Yale's campus to point this shit out?
"Join the Republican Party! You can idolize the Nazis over catered meals from Boston Market!"
"Ooooh...Boston Market!"
At last, some pop music guaranteed to pass both the Stanley Kurtz test for proper virility and the Ann Coulter test for properly stylish patriotism! And Bruce Springsteen & John Adams can just eat their [bleep]s out!
Yeah, sociopath fits, but I feel there's a better word or phrase.
I'm partial to Narcissistic Psychopaths . . . but Thugs works too.
And they finished with a rousing chorus of "Springtime for Bush".
Maybe that old songbook was something George's grandfathers got when they were trading with Hitler during the first half of WWII.
Doug Henwood, editor and publisher of the excellent Left Business Observer, was, during a period of misguided youthful misantropy, a member of the Party of the Right at Yale. He recalls the indescretions of his youth and the character of the Party of the Right in this article, "I Was a Teenage Reactionary."
"Aren't there Jewish organizations or, you know, rational people on Yale's campus to point this shit out?"
1) A lot of members of the Party of the Right (or "P.O.R.") are Jewish, mainly of the neocon (or freakier) variety.
2) The P.O.R. has always been very closed to non-members - most of their loony shit goes on behind closed doors. But I'll tell you a few things I know:
a) Members are required to believe that the chairman is omnipotent. Literally. Not as a joke. I've never seen a single POR member crack when pressed on this issue, ever.
b) You can only earn a middle name if the chairman gives you one. That doesn't just go for POR members - that goes for EVERYONE. At one meeting of the Yale Political Union (the debating society of which the POR is a member), the chairman of the POR attempted to cross out the middle name written down by the chairman of the Liberal Party on the attendance sheet.
A couple of things--
There's now (again) a sixth party, the Conservatives, which are somewhat left of the Tories.
For what it's worth, Dubya and the neocons would probably be well *left* of the P.O.R., just as the Liberal Party is well to the left.
And, to paraphrase someone else on this board, the P.O.R. is pretty damn freaky--and the few women there even more so than the men....
"Meet the Left in action, put them all in traction/ Get great satisfaction, bashing in their heads!"
An relevant piece of historical trivia: The famous Nazi marching tune, The Hoerst Weissel Song was named after a Brown Shirt who was killed in a street fight with the Communists.
