    I think every president has enjoyed being compared to Hitler by the opposition. His politics are closer to Saul Alinsky in my opinion. That said, The Party lost the New York 9th district, it just did. You have to move on and get over it. ----in additon--- If you feel The Party is being unfairly criticized please note who made the comments and report it[^]. :wtf:

      The Tea Party is stupid beyond belief; it thrives on people's singular mistrust of anybody intelligent, honest, educated, humane...

        Subject closed[^] The American Teabaggers have gotten in the habit of comparing Obama to to Hitler and are often seen carrying signs depicting the President's face with a little mustache on his upper lip. Like Hitler, Obama is an eloquent public speaker. Clearly the ability to articulate in public equates one with the murderer of 6 million Jews and the general personification of evil. You know who else was a great public speaker? Steve Allen. Or should I say "Steve Hitler." So was that guy you saw give a great toast at a wedding. I bet you didn't realize you were listening to Hitler. :-D

          Hitler: responsible for the deaths of forty million people; instigated World War II; attempted to take over Europe; fond of genocide and racial purity; manipulated Hindenburg into giving him absolute power. Obama: black.

                One thing I found interesting was in a rant about name-calling, you used an insulting and demeaning version of the Tea Party's name - even though the movement is named after one of the first exhibition of an American National Patriotism. Enlighten me: how exactly is this OK when you objected so strongly to my pointing out that the reason "bugger" has become an euphemism for anal sex was that the Brits decided that ass-fucking was the Bulgarian national pastime? Or is it different when you do it???

                          I think the word you were looking for was "traitors", and the use of that word depends on who's ideology you favor. To the crown, they word "traitors", or in today's vernacular, would be called "domestic terrorists". To us, they were "rights activists", or even "patriots". Today's "Tea Party" was named after the Boston Tea Party in that they claim to be fighting to get our rights and proper representation back. To *me*, they're just a bunch of politicians (and ex-lawyers), and as such, they aren't to be trusted with *my* liberties. The only person that can reclaim *my* liberties and rights as enumerated in the Constitution, is *me*.

                                  But, you still can't vote for em, so, um, maybe the energy is better used on local politics? Also, if you think either party in the U.S. isn't full of complete shit, then you don't quite understand politics here.

                                      I was under the impression that Oakman and I were to never speak to one another again. Apparently he's too weak to even do that.

                                        But, you still can't vote for em, so, um, maybe the energy is better used on local politics? Also, if you think either party in the U.S. isn't full of complete shit, then you don't quite understand politics here.

                                          Hitler: responsible for the deaths of forty million people; instigated World War II; attempted to take over Europe; fond of genocide and racial purity; manipulated Hindenburg into giving him absolute power. Obama: black.

                                          Wow, with every decade that number grows larger. Are you including the Pacific arena?

                                          He didn't. Britain and France declared war on Germany. Hitler expected them to climb down over Poland as they had over Czechoslovakia, and his every breach of the Versailles Treaty.

                                          To the East, he was merely reclaiming land that was in the hands of Germanic tribes in Roman times. To the West, it was self-defence. (The USSR? Well, we all make mistakes.)

                                          Australian settlers had their genocidal moments, I believe. ("Let me Abos go loose, Bruce. Let me Abos go loose. They're of no further use, Bruce. So let me Abos go loose." is a lingering aftertaste of previous generations' of gratuitous racism.)

                                          Hindenburg did not give Hitler absolute power. Hitler was Head of Government, Hindenburg was Head of State. Hindenberg could remove Hitler from office and, as head of the armed forces, make sure that he went.
