Seriously. I know at first, in 2008, you got those usual whackadoos comparing him to Hitler or calling him the Anti-Christ, but come on people, it's 2013. He's been in office 5 years, and he hasn't rained down hellfire from the skies or ordered the extermination of several ethnic groups. If you are going to make a politician seem unfavorable, at least try to have some substance instead of throwing around horrible names.

It's not any different. Almost all past presidents have been subjected to it, and frankly, it's stupid.

I can't believe that people think that another Hitler can't happen. Noooo, not in the U.S. you think. It is because of people like you that makes it possible.

So what's up with you're ID. I suppose you want sharia law too.

When you mean another Hitler, do you mean another fascist leader, or another leader that calls for the deaths of millions? Because there is a difference.

Indeed, there's no real reason to do that. Obama never proposed anti-Jewish laws, or military invasions to take over countries and steal their products, etc.

I agree, it isn't stupid to point out when a president does that. I just think a proper comparison is needed.

I can't believe it is 2013 and people still compare Obama to Hitler

He is more closely comparable to Stalin, not Hitler.

It all starts with demonizing the people the leader does not like in Obama's case anyone who opposes him. So you think it will stop there? Demonization obviously didn't stop at Hitler demonizing the jewish.
