Hitler project

edited September 2014 in General Discussion
My 15y/o has a school project to do.

Theme is little know or fun facts about famous people.

So I guess we have to make Hitler look fun somehow, this isn't going to work out well.

    George Washington was the first president elected, who was not born an American citizen.


    I think that Martin Van Buren was the first president actually born in what was the United States.



    Good luck in making Adolph look like a barrel of laughs.

    Hitler was a paper hanger(wallpaper) by trade..

    He survived 53 major campaigns during WWl as a courier

    Won the lron Cross too and never rose above the rank of corporal

    He was left handed and a choir boy in his divinity school.

    Had he left his generals alone to do the fighting Germany would have WON

    He couldn't get ''IT'' up either [:0]

    He was a vegetarian. Or was it veterinarian?
    He either liked animals or wouldn't eat them.
    Or vice-versa.
    I don't like him.

    General George S. Patton often carried a swagger stick. In concealed a knife blade. He often used it to return salutes to lesser ranks, tapping the stick to his helmet. But when greeting an officer of equal or higher rank he would move it to his other hand and salute as if he was a Private saluting a General.

    To hell with Hitler, Google Patton. Tons of great stuff out there. Lot of it's true too. [:D]

    Depends on how accurate the facts are and how willing the teacher is to research them.

    Did You know He had a Nephew that joined the Military to fight against Him? Or that He had a Sister?
    He has a lot of Relatives in Bavaria and Germany that changed the Family Name as not to be known as a Relative.

    That was the film and later the stage production "The Producers". One of the numbers was "Springtime for Hitler".

    The sad thing is The US Government used every weapon design they could steal from The Nazi's to enforce their will in future wars.

    Unfortunately might makes right and The US government is becoming more corrupt daily with more and more laws to control your freedoms to their desires to what THEY CALL a free society is.

    We The People are like Hitler quoted (How fortunate for governments that the people they administer don't think.) Hitler would have
    praised the patriot acts!!

    The Patriot Acts with the first being voted on and passed without many so called elected representatives even reading the Bill!Wake up! Your just a pawn in The NWO!

    The bill was brought to the floor of the House of Representatives on October 23, the same day it was introduced. Many Democrats expressed extreme displeasure over the hurried nature of the process. Rep. Bobby Scott said, "I think it is appropriate to comment on the process by which the bill is coming to us. This is not the bill that was reported and deliberated on in the Committee on the Judiciary. It came to us late on the floor. No one has really had an opportunity to look at the bill to see what is in it since we have been out of our offices." Rep. John Conyers, the ranking member of the Judiciary Committee, declared, "we are now debating at this hour of night, with only two copies of the bill that we are being asked to vote on available to Members on this side of the aisle." Conyers was later famously pictured in the Michael Moore documentary "Fahrenheit 9/11" explaining that no lawmaker reads all the bills in Congress. The bill passed on October 24 by a vote of 357-66.

    He preferred to take it up the poop chute.
    Some will die in hot pursuit
    And fiery auto crashes
    Some will die in hot pursuit
    While sifting through my ashes
    Some will fall in love with life
    And drink it from a fountain
    That is pouring like an avalanche
    Coming down the mountain

    Yes, Eva discreetly confirmed it with her girl friends but stated that it was a "huge one" [:D]

    He wrote a book,maybe you could read it and find out what he did to have fun. I think most people alive today already know that one. Anyone here ever read it ? ( Mein Kamph )

    Yeah, when I was 14. The only thing in there that would be close to fun is/was his passion for watercolors. He liked to paint.
