| Description | World War II cartoon shows Reichsmarshall Hermann Göring sliding down a hill of falling rocks labeled "Evasion," "Distortion," "Bravado," "Showmanship," "Lies," and "Denial." With him falls a copy of Hitler's Mein Kampf with pages reading "The bigger the lie, the better." Göring cries out, "Ach, Mein Fuehrer." In Mein Kampf, Hitler maintains that people are more likely to believe a Big Lie than a small one. As World War II drew to a close, Göring, who originally wielded power second only to Hitler, had through errors in judgment and physical excesses including drug addiction, declined in prestige and influence. |
