What's with all the Republican references to HITLER??
Rumsfeld's comments about Zarqawi today, Santorum last week etc.

What is it with this pot-calling-the-kettle-black strategy? If anything somewhat resembles Nazi Germany leading up to WWII it's the Bush Admin.

How many actual quotes can we come up with? I'd like to see a list come together...

3. Wasn't Pearl Harbor our "Pearl Harbor"?
I think that Sept. 11th was more like our burning of the Reichstag, be it premeditated or not, that's what it's been used for...

From Bob Woodward's book, "Bush at War":

The huge crowd erupts in cheers. Rove leaned over to Yankee owner George Steinbrenner, and in acknowledgement of this excellent moment he orchestrated, says "It's just like being at a Nazi rally."


See, that's a good thing for Rove.
