Hitler's Daughter Tells A Lie

WHEN REPUBLICANS LIE ABOUT RELATIVES' SERVICE RECORDS.... When people compare Arizona's "let me see your papers" immigration law to 1930s Germany, Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer (R) takes it personally. "Knowing that my father died fighting the Nazi regime in Germany, that I lost him when I was 11 because of that ... and then to have them call me Hitler's daughter. It hurts," she said the other day. "It's ugliness beyond anything I've ever experienced."

The problem, as Kos noted, is that Brewer's father didn't die fighting the Nazi regime in Germany.
Not really a problem for these people, who will lie like a rug at the drop of a hat.
For crying out loud.

OK, so Brewer misled the public about her father's service record. She'll apologize and move on, right? Wrong.
Officials with the governor's administration said her statement should not be taken to mean that she was claiming her father was a soldier in Germany during the Nazi regime.
I'm confused. When Brewer said her "father died fighting the Nazi regime in Germany," that wasn't intended to mean that her father was an American soldier in Germany during the Nazi regime?
Well, it's not "intended" to mean anything at all. It's just something one says, y'know?

Luckily for them, Hatch's retroactive anti-Blumenthal law will only apply to Democrats. Because, you know.

Mr. Drinkwine was probably in the same unit as Ronald Reagan.

From The Taking It Easy Ed.:

Thanks to Mr A. Kiwi; we gave Bonzo Ron's imagined service record a thought, but sloth took over.

It's been claimed that Mr. Drinkwine perhaps died from lung troubles related to ammo manufacture, which is of course the fault, at least, of the Nazis, not capitalism or war-profiteering.

Hatch's son runs some "nutritional supplement" scam, & Hatch has been blocking regulation of the biz for yrs., in addition to his other crimes.
