...give nothing back. One may not agree with them, but their arguments are at least understandable. Suppose you are a patriotic Russian in your 60s. Your childhood was passed amid the horrors and suffering of the Great Patriotic War, in which millions died to defend the Motherland against Nazism. Then you survived Stalin, watched the utopian fantasies of the Dictatorship of the Proletariat go into sclerosis in the 1960s and '70s, and saw the imperium collapse in the '80s. Today the yellow arches of McDonald's shed their plastic gleam on Red Square, and gangsterism rules instead of socialist virtue...
...safety of the citizens of the U.S. and of the citizens of the many countries which rely on the U.S. for support depend on the advanced technology of the U.S. It was thanks to superior technology that the U.S. saved the world from falling into the hands of Nazism and Communism. More recently, the Gulf War was won, with minimum loss of lives, through technological superiority...
...Jewish renaissance in those areas must overcome more than the horrors of Nazism. Even before the repressions of the 20th century, large numbers of Central European Jews chose integration and assimilation as a means of easing conflict with Christian society.

...there, listeners! This is Rash Lambaste, the liberals' Limbaugh, with all the news you need to know. Well, we just had another beaut from Newt. The Speaker hired a House historian who thought Nazism should be taught in schools. That's good sound Republicanism: instead of condoms, let's distribute SS armbands. Newt dumped her, but in the nicest way: he visited her and served her with divorce papers. And how about term limits, that great notion of an electorate that can't trust themselves to vote the rascals out? Old Guard Republicans must love that! Newt...
...carried out by the Council of Trent in the 16th century but in this case put through by the willpower of a single personality. Unlike John XXIII, who had led a sheltered life in seminaries and nunciatures, John Paul was a man of the world who had suffered under Nazism and communism. He was a philosopher, poet and dramatist, but also a very experienced fund raiser and administrator. His pastoral experience was determinative. In Poland he had founded and run perhaps the most successful marriage institute in Christianity, set up to deal with the problems of marital discord, family planning...
