The point of giving Hitler credit for this very applicable and appropriate quote:

<font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="2">If you tell a lie long enough, and loud enough and often enough, then (some) people will believe it as the truth.</font>
is, Attorney28, that he is actually the author of the statement. I thought about taking credit for it myself, but, unfortunately, I can't lie with a straight face.

The fact that I can acknowledge that Hitler had a good understanding of how to manipulate with lies, only indicates that I am smart, not that he was right. It really doesn't take a genius IQ to recognize that a paper hanger who made a good shot at conquering the world, must have been a good manipulator.

Having been German for a lot longer than you, I think I will just leave the quote alone. The only thing worse than a stubborn German is a stubborn old German.

Note: Saying the name Hitler is not a TOS violation.
