DOMAGATE: LOUREY COMPARES DOMAGATE TO NAZIS PERSECUTION OF JEWS
By Michael Brodkorb | March 23, 2006
I can’t believe what I am reading.
“First they came for the Jews and I did not speak out because I was not a Jew. Then they came for the Communists and I did not speak outbecause I was not a Communist. Then they came for the trade unionists and I did not speak outbecause I was not a trade unionist.Then they came for meand there was no one left to speak out for me.” Pastor Niemöller (victim of the Nazi)
Is Lourey calling me a Nazi?

Oversimplification is an easy, but silly way to make yourself and your movement look like victims.
The point of her message is that it is important to defend everyone’s rights, not just your own.
I understand that being critical of democrats is important (and often easy), but this is not a valid way to do so.

she may just be calling herself a communist.
Either way, what the heck is she thinking?
