I mean, sure he was a rabid Anti-Semite, an avowed Propogandist, and instrumental to the Nazi takeover in Germany (and his wife a Family Destroyer Psychopathic Murderer), but he was a man of culture, refinement, and learning.
Paul Joseph Goebbels … was a German Nazi politician and Reich Minister of Propaganda of Nazi Germany from 1933 to 1945. He was one of Adolf Hitler’s closest and most devoted associates, and was known for his skills in public speaking and his deeply virulent antisemitism, which was evident in his publicly voiced views. He advocated progressively harsher discrimination, including the extermination of the Jews in the Holocaust.
Goebbels, who aspired to be an author, obtained a Doctor of Philology degree from the University of Heidelberg in 1921. He joined the Nazi Party in 1924, and worked with Gregor Strasser in their northern branch. He was appointed Gauleiter (district leader) for Berlin in 1926, where he began to take an interest in the use of propaganda to promote the party and its programme. After the Nazis’ seizure of power in 1933, Goebbels’s Propaganda Ministry quickly gained and exerted control over the news media, arts, and information in Germany. He was particularly adept at using the relatively new media of radio and film for propaganda purposes.
He never held elective office that I recall.
(Thomas Bryant) Cotton was accepted to Harvard after graduating from high school in 1995, and majored in government. At Harvard, Cotton was a member of the editorial board of The Harvard Crimson, often dissenting from the liberal majority. In articles, Cotton addressed what he saw as “sacred cows” such as affirmative action. He graduated with an A.B. magna cum laude in 1998 after only three years of study, having written his senior thesis on The Federalist Papers.
After graduating from Harvard, Cotton was accepted into a master’s degree program at Claremont Graduate University. He left in 1999, saying that he found academic life “too sedentary”, and instead enrolled at Harvard Law School. Cotton graduated from Harvard Law School with a J.D. degree in 2002.
Aw, shucks. Jes’ a good ol’ country boy.
Actually, I blame the Times and James Bennet. Everyone except Shulzberger should resign in disgrace and he should sell.
Bunch of Racist Asshole Nazi-enabling Idiots.
