I am sorry, but some things just make you sick. Baby seals being clubbed. Nursing home inmates indulging in orgies. And Hitler paintings being sold at an auction house at Ludlow, England for the combined value of over $140K.
Yes, we can - put on the world's most tasteless auction!
One of them, for instance, a $15,000 1910 self-portrait of a boy sitting on the bridge is going to hang in the home or office of one Mr. Ratledge.
Why, I ask you? Would you want a dictator’s watercolor in your home? How about a nice framed postcard of Dachau? There might be a discount for purchasing in bulk.
Oh, and another question if I may? What’s with pictures of farmhouses and cats and roses? The man liked his realists, sure enough, so much so that abstract paintings were burned, but rose bouquets? Please! Writing his Producers, was Mel Brooks right? Was the Fuhrer REALLY called Adolph Elizabeth Hitler?!

You seem so upset that Adolf Hitlers are is being sold for profit. You made the statement why would anyone want a dictator/mass murderer on their wall. Just remember if you have a U.S. President on your wall you have a mass murderer on your wall. Many people have no idea who Joseph Stalin is, but everyone in the world knows who Hitler is. The interesting point here is Stalin murdered more people than Hitler, and killed 25 million of his own people during the purges in the early 30’s. Yet he was welcomed into the League of Nations, and the Allies aided him in WW2. Hitler was the first politician that made an attempt to start a new world order. Do not think for a second that the New World Order you now live is any better. A police state is being set up around you, and you buy and consume, and do what your told or you will be dealt with. Kind of like what a Nazi New World would have been like, except the one we are in is wrapped in an American Flag toting freedom of expression, etc. Yet just try and speak your mind or question authority the next time your pulled over and watch how free you are.
