Are the “Beltarians” Defenders of Nazi Germany?
July 13, 2015
I’ve read some really scathing critiques of Franklin D. Roosevelt and his “New Deal” in a publication of a D.C. faux-“libertarian” organization. I have to conclude from this that these people are shameless defenders of Nazi Germany. Shame!
I come to this conclusion because the same people have recently been arguing that anyone who says anything critical of Abe Lincoln is necessarily a defender of the Confederacy. This is what passes for inside-the-beltway “logic.” Either that or they’re just lying and slandering, the number one sport in D.C.
