Bush isn't even a good Mussolini, Stalin, or Kruschev. To compare him to Hitler is to give him WAY too much credit. Hitler was an absolute genius both politically and intellectually. The only problem was he used it for a horrible purpose. You don't really think Bush is as smart as Hitler do you?
That was a bit of sarcasm.... I don't think Bush is as smart as a couple of rocks in my back yard....

I don’t think comparing George W to Hitler is a good thing to do. German people didn’t like Hitler after the war and I’m sure they don’t want to be compared with George! Although there are many similarities between Adolph and George.

Reinstated? Prayers are spoken every day in public schools across the nation. Every student has the right to pray so long as he or she is responsible enough not to interupt or impose upon others.

Comparisons of any US leader to Adolph Hitler is absolutely disgusting. That type of thiking is no different than some militia-fantasy yahoo that just knew Janet Reno was gonna send her boys in jack boots to their mountain retreat for the final heroic standoff.

I guess those who vote Republican are avid proponents of Nazism and all that it embodied, right?

Don't they teach anything about 1940's Germany and Eastern Europe in school or has that been dumbed down or supplanted by self esteem classes.

What's next, taking selected statements and comparing, let's say, Hillary to Fidel? Only in America.

Sometimes I think we've got it too f*****g good here in the US.

It is not mandatory to participate, and not even allowed for a teacher to initiate it. I didn't mean Bush was trying to make it where schools initiate prayer again, I'm just saying he couldn't if he tried, while Hitler had the schools singing hymns of praise to Hitler as a savior.
