Susan Sarandon calls Pope Benedict a Nazi

[Misha & Ira 113]

Susan who?

You know, I made a comment about TV being a little irrelevant in my life anymore and this is essentially why. Everywhere I turn it is these people and their agenda in almost everything and I just do not support it in almost all its forms.

I just cannot give these people the time of day anymore...or revenue from me.

I watched very little TV before I went to Ukraine in 1994. When I came back I never turned it on again and did not suscribe to it.

we were without TV until earlier this year when we got an offer for ALL the movie channels free if we got DirecTV. we like movies so we figured,"Why not"? We tried it. We even bought a new big screen TV, hoem theatre system and blu-ray player.

It is just purely #######. We had something like 59 movie channels and could not find anything we wanted to watch that we hadn't already seen. The new movies were $5.99 or more each. Rebox at the corner grocery is $1 !!!!!!!! We disconnected it two months ago.

we now have an elaborate system to watch DVDs from Redbox. Beats watching them on the laptop like we used to do. we atch a movie one or two times per week. We prefer going shooing (this afternoon!) skiing, swimming, hiking or just wandering around downtown Burlington or Montreal. TV sucks

Point of interest:

"Drawing on his own experience of the rise of Nazism, the pope links contemporary liberal democracy with fascism. He argues that when liberals believe in nothing, fascism is not far behind. Goebbels, Hitler's chief propagandist, said as much when he wrote in his diaries that without objective values, there is only power and the sole proof of having power is to break all taboos and transgress all limits in order to better demonstrate supremacy. In part this helps to explain why Catholicism under Benedict XVI will try harder than ever to reinforce taboos against killing and exploitation - a radical alternative to the contemporary "totalitarianisms" of capitalism and liberalism."

He's also blamed atheism for the holocaust:

Does this give Sarandon the right to call him a Nazi? Perhaps not. But either way, she's operating only within parameters that he himself outlined.

Adolf Hitler (Germany, 1939-1945) 12,000,000 (concentration camps and civilians WWII)

How do war casualties constitute genocide? Callous, equivocating drivel.
