  • Hard News: Things we needed to hear,

    Malcolm the suggestion that Farrar's Curia research might suffer from push polling was meant in the context of a discussion about Farrar's other political activities. i happily withdraw it if Curia's ethic is in no way related to that evinced by kiwiblog.

    Market Research Society of New Zealand forbids push polling? well i never. that's not an industry self-regulating body per chance is it?

    I would love to see examples of Curia's polling questions and sampling methodolgy so we can all be assured they are indeed true reflections of public opinion.

    here's my 'Hater of Freedom' map.

  • Hard News: The Solipsistic Left,

    At the start 1930- to be SS you had to be (insert criterion here), toward the end, anything went

    yeah, their 'prestige' started to dwindle a little bit there toward the end, when it became apparent that after the war they wouldn't be rewarded so much with handmaidens and riches, but rather by being hacked to pieces

    what are 'family friendly government policies' that these people keep asking for

    This from Family Fist spells out pretty clearly what they mean by FFP, anything that promotes their conception of a family. Anything elsewise is of course satanic lesbianism and communist witchcraft.

    I'd like such a list with reasons attached ideally

    reasons? oh i think you've missed their point entirely my friend.

    eek, let's not mention the Handschar SS division in all of this

    make that SS companies of locals, not battalions.
    looking a bit closer i see that the Bristish Legion, aka Britische Freikorps, were ultimately a bit of a pr disaster for the nazis after all (they got all antsi about who exactly they'd fight).

    i'll have to dig about for the refs but yes it is my understanding that that's true.

    DPF, I get the impression that he's had little-to-no time

    he's busy alright, and not just with T&A stories and feeding meat to his pack.

    did you know he also has a political polling company called Curia? can you imagine how push polling they are?

    an acquaintance was surveyed by them a while back and frankly i would hate to think of the consequences of someone like Farrar having my name and a record of my views on all and sundry. with people like that fishing around it pays to ask all you call from pollsters before you said anything. if they say 'from Curia research', think carefully about what you say.

  • Hard News: The Solipsistic Left,

    ooh i love warring Popes, and Rosicrucians, they're always good for a bit of intrigue. i reckon they were behind that Alinghi business with the boats.

    just to confuse things a bit more and harking back to an earlier point about rocks and hard places, let's not forget that every occupied european state had its own batallions of SS made up from local miscreants. and let's also not forget the British Legion of british troops fighting for the nazis. i also have euro family history tied up with all that so i just like those things not to be forgotten.
