Godwins Law, an Internet adage started by lawyer and writer Mike Godwin in 1990, states, As an online discussion grows longer, the probability of a comparison involving Nazis or Hitler approaches one.-skip-
It continued, Members of the TeaParty, red-blooded Americans and fellow citizens, the time is coming when you must decide. A Lexington and Concorde [sic] moment when you must decide which is greater: the demands of a tyrannical government as they disarm us and eviscerate our liberties or your own personal rights.
TeaParty.org has already made its decision and is ready to take action. The E-mail blast promotes a fundraising campaign called Operation Raise Hell, which will demand the deportation of Piers Morgan, write a big fat check to support a Youth Firearms Training Initiative to be run by Gun Owners of America, and send a Tea Party team to Washington to get in their faces.
Someday, the fundraising pitch concludes, your children will thank you for saving their future from Obamas Soviet-Style Socialist State.
Lets get this straight: Unless we arm our children and deport a gun-control-friendly British CNN host, the president of the United States, who is practically the same as Hitler, is going to create some kind of United Soviet Socialist States of America by abolishing guns rights?
Thats a lot to untangle.
