After WW1 Germany was in such a depression that it's easy to see how someone as "charasmatic" as Hitler was able to just worm his way into power. He was all about instilling a national pride again as well as economic growth. <br /><br />Here in America, I hear similar comparisons with Obama and how we need to be watchful about blindly allowing our leaders to "fix" all of our problems for us and viewing them as the ones who are going to "save" us from our problems.<br /><br />Hugs,<br />ConnieConstancehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15748558090320737035noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37174210.post-64657302644158388732009-07-22T04:42:43.882+01:002009-07-22T04:42:43.882+01:00Beautiful pictures, beautiful post, beautiful poem...Beautiful pictures, beautiful post, beautiful poem.<br /><br />I love the way that flowers speak of the fading beauty of a man's life.<br /><br />Yet there is an eternal place where flowers never die, only bloom forever!<br /><br />Thanks for this post.Crown of Beautyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08993686012020045284noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37174210.post-47132261871100662752009-07-22T02:22:40.419+01:002009-07-22T02:22:40.419+01:00Gorgeous peonies!
