A man who claimed to stay the course

"My fellow-countrymen and women! Party Comrades! It is, I think, something very extraordinary when a man after about 20 years can stand before his old followers, and when in doing so he has not had to make any revisions of his programme during these 20 years."

So much for consistency and 'staying the course'.

This is the beginning of an incredibly rambling speech that Hitler gave in Munich on this date 70 years ago.

It is shocking stuff.  How did he ever get away with it and how did it happen?

Nasty words can tell a story.
