The "Hitler Oath"

The term Hitler oath refers to the oaths of allegiance, or Reichswehreid, sworn by the officers and soldiers of the German Armed Forces and civil servants of Nazi Germany between the years 1934 and 1945. The oath pledged personal loyalty to Adolf Hitler in place of loyalty to the constitution of the country.

I know all about the personal loyalty oath and the Fuhrerprinzip which accompanied it, but somehow "Hitler Oath" always makes me think of The Producers.

Looking for a Master to be their Boss.

Alas, that's what the latter-day republican party is full of, morally feeble subbies & self-identified cuckservatives who have surrendered their judgement and will - and the core American values - to shame themselves by gleefully Assuming the Position for Comrade Casino, the republican Draft-Dodger-in-Chief, and his cabal of colluding cronies.
