The Holocaust

I originally wrote this next post on Tuesday, August 01, 2006 on my MYSPACE blog. Please read because it discusses some serious issues and while my blog entries are usually filled with more levity, I think this is very important and that all readers will gain some insight in themselves. While a little outdated it still is very poignant. Would love to hear your comments in the comment section if you have any.

Holocaust of Americans, The Constitution, and future 9-11 like attacks Current mood: nervous I am Daniel Berman. I am a cartoonist, a comedian, a writer. I am an artist. I just turned 31 years old, I am not political. I live in the Lower East Side of Manhattan (I now am in williamsburg, BK). I am silly and goofy. (I am still silly and goofy, less so though). I wear camouflage pants occasionally, not because there are bombs dropping, people dieing and buildings being demolished in NYC (okay, maybe those things are happening or have happened in recent history), but because these camos are standard issue to any hipster who lives in this neighborhood. I am dark, morbid and friendly. I am a unique individual. I am (I believe myself to be) a very good person, sensitive and thoughtful and at times concerned with others well being at the detriment of my own. That is a brief overview of who I am. My grandparents were/are survivors of the Holocaust. My grandfather was fortunate enough to escape the DACHAU concentration camp (the first regular concentration camp established. 1933). * *I did not know that Dachau was the first concentration camp until now. I am doing research as I present you with the facts that I do have. I am including that info and this explanation to you because I want to express the realness of what happened and also because I personally don’t know some of the details that well. I feel that I owe it to my family and friends (past, present and future) to piece some of this together. My grandfather, along with his brother and parents escaped Germany and came to America. My grandfather has since passed and I can’t tell you how much I miss him and how great a grandfather he was. Grandpa Fred was so nice and wonderful. He loved me and he was very warm. I looked up to my grandfather, not just because we were related or because he was a great fisherman but because he was such a smart, loyal, hard working man with ethics and scruples.

Headline: Bush Admits Himself

Last year we read the the headline “Bush Acknowledges Frustration in Irak” and it struck us that we have seen something similar/identical in the past. We entered “Bush Acknowledges” and “headlines” into several search engines and organized our findings into this funny and really sad entry: Bush has a monthly subscription to reality and to US Weekly. That blog entry is our most popular to date and has garnered 1000’s of views over the past year.

We are hoping lightning strikes again with this post.

Todays installment: A search on “Bush admits” and “headlines” led to these findings.  The Bush Administration should be called the Bush ADMITistration because they sure do admit quite often. Wish they did something in conjunction to admitting their shortcomings, oversights and blatant lies. You can click on the headlines to be re-directed to the actual articles if that is your desire or whim. And without further ado ….
