No, Paul Ryan is not sporting a Nazi logo in his letterhead


Recommended Posts

Those are even the colors of the Third Reich! Proof!

Some people look for hidden meanings in everything. When I lived in Oklahoma, the following license plate design was controversial when it came out, as mundane as it was.

World War II veterans said that the sun on the tag was reminiscent of the Japanese flag.

Though seriously, that symbol.  Guess we can throw that on the list with everything else the Nazis ruined for everyone.

 

Think of how us Buddhists feel.

Shit.  Looks like we Japanese have already invaded and taken over California then.

This is the original patch worn by the 45th Infantry Division, based in Oklahoma City. Ironically, this unit captured Hitler's apartment during the waning days of World War II, and there is a lot of memorabilia from there that now rests in the 45th Infantry Division Museum in northeast Oklahoma City. This museum is well worth the visit for war buffs, as it also contains the original drawings of the entire collection of cartoons that Bill Mauldin drew for the military newsletter Stars and Stripes, which depicted humorous aspects of life for soldiers. Mauldin was a member of the 45th.

The swastika was a symbol of good luck among many Native American cultures. The unit patch was changed to the Thunderbird when the hooked cross came to mean something quite different under the Nazis in Germany.
