3. for those not getting this:

Oh, and something y'all might not know about this actor:


The "Nazi connotations" problem Klemperer addressed by crafting Klink into a universal character. From pre-war Prussian aristocracy he adopted Klink's monocle and swagger stick, as well as his bombastic manner. From his repertoire of accents, he selected stage English only slightly tinged with German. He was also keenly aware of the traumatic effect that any reminder of Nazism, however minute or underplayed, could have on those who had suffered at their hands. He therefore did something unique among actors: he insisted that the character he portrayed never come out on top.

4. General Burkhalter: Klink ... you idiot ...
actually, Werner Klemperer, who played Klink, was one of the good guys ... he was a real progressive ...

i believe i saw him on the old Bill Maher show making a pretty good case ...
