Spicer: When I said that, I was using air quotes, but you didn't see them.
Reporter asking things
Spicer: "I understand what you are saying but why isn't the media saying that there are millions of people denying the holocaust really really, I was just using quotes. I'll not be giving anymore comments on this.
2 days later
Spicer: "Air quotes people, I was using them. Why is this even an issue anymore? Why isn't the media covering the time Hilary sold nucular material to Russia?"

Press Sec. on Hitler/Assad comments: "He was not using the gas on his own people the same way...he brought them into the Holocaust centers."

Keep digging that grave.

Seriously, how stupid can you be - of course he murdered plenty of "his own people" with gas, so even that incredibly dumb argument doesn't work. Not even getting into the point that it shouldn't matter where the victims were from.
 
So the point he is trying to make is that Hitler didn't drop gas on his citizens in towns? That's the distinction???? What a moron.

"Duh guys, come on. I meant Hitler didn't drop chemical weapons on the general population. He was more careful than that. He abducted the Jews and gassed them separately as Assad should be doing."
 
I fucking hate these racist pieces of shit and lets not pretend we don't know the reason why these alt right bastards say shit like this. They actually admire what Hitler did.
 
Holocaust aside he is still wrong.
One reported incident indicates the German army eventually used poison gas on survivors of the Battle of Kerch on the Eastern Crimean peninsula. After the battle in mid-May 1942, roughly 3000 soldiers and civilians not evacuated by sea were besieged in a series of caves and tunnels in the nearby Adzhimuskai quarry. After holding out for approximately three months, "poison gas was released into the tunnels, killing all but a few score of the Soviet defenders."[34]

Is he saying that Hitler wasn't doing it as badly or that the German Jews don't count as Hitler's own kind?

Well he's clearly saying sending the weapons to the people is completely different than sending the people to the weapons.
...
...
That's actually his argument, I'm pretty sure.

:(

If Spicer wanted to save his ass, he should have said against the Soviets. IIRC Hitler was involved in a chemical attack in WW1, so he understood the effects of it. Of course he did gas his own people..so still a fuck up Spicer..smh.

...Many of the gassed Jews were also German. One of the worlds most famous German scientists was a German Jew that escaped before the Nazi's took over...

Get it together Spicy.


Edit: also the connotation that Hilter was better because he only gassed immigrants and foreigners? (Even if not true)

WTF
 
Wooooooooooooooooow

This is a goof you normally don't survive.

Then that correction is unbelievable.
 
Just another soundbite that will be consumed without skepticism by 50% of the united states and brushed aside by the rest because we love war and will accept any justification to put boots on the ground
 
So he is trying to say gas chambers aren't chemical weapons, or what?
Because you don't launch them at people/targets?
 
Yeah, a part of the refusal to use chem weapons in combat was that both sides had massive stockpiles but applied an MAD mentality to it, don't use it until the other guy does. OTOH ISIS has already used chem weapons so the same WW2 logic would allow Assad to use them too.

Fortunately the Nazis didn't know that the allied chem weapons weren't as advanced as theirs.
 
I'm beginning to think that this Trump administration isn't as amazing as it originally seemed.
 
I'm impressed with how quickly he was able to dig himself even deeper.

I think part of the issue with Spicer is that he's very good at babbling and redirecting, but he's not actually intelligent. He's basically a used cars salesman (much like Trump) who's able to just pile so much bullshit on you have trouble pinning him down. Unlike a salesman though he's on record and is constantly up there, so his bullshit gets exposed for all to see.
