Ya know who else called himself a nationalist?

Kasie in MSNBC couldn't say any of the names that and I quote " come to mind" No one on the panel would say the names either.

I guess history is censorable now.

1. I saw that. Very cowardly of them. Name it - because that's the only way to fight it.

2. If you know German, it's easier

The National Socialist German Workers Party was initially known by the German abbreviation "NSDAP," but was later just referred to by a shortened version of the word "national."

"National" in German is pronounced "Nah-tsee-oh-NAHL." They just used the first two syllables for short (yes, really!). Since "national" is a word borrowed from French, they left the spelling the same, but with the abbreviation, they used a German spelling, and in German (as in Italian), the "ts" sound is spelled with a "z."

3. +1

The question is, does this moronic egotist understand what he's saying at all? Or is he just being cute, precocious toddler style?

7. Me too.

I was there 65 - 69. El Caudillo's face was everywhere.
And you didn't F with the Guardia Civil.

8. I left in 69 too.

The Guads were really a feared force back then. And I lived in the "axis of evil" area (Barcelona).
