In a stupid and outrageous statement Sean Spicer had the audacity to say at his press conference when making a clumsy and foolish attempt to comparing Assad to Hitler, and said "even Hitler didn't use chemical weapons". Guess he forgot about the millions of jews Hitler sent to the gas chambers!

When pressed on this in a follow up by another reporter, who raised gassing of jews, rather than just apologize and admit his mistake he mumbled something about well yes I do appreciate the distinction.

What an idiot and no doubt like his fearless leader he just can't admit to being wrong apologizing and moving on.

Well no doubt he will apologize later on today or tomorrow when the s***t storm on this erupts and rightly so.

Wow!

While it is a dumb thing to say, technically no chemical weapons were used. The jews were murdered more then anything. Most people would think that a chemical weapon is one used on the battle field. Not in a prison.

The jews were in prison and gassed. They were not on a battlefield and killed in battle. I know it does not matter to them when they are dead. I am just saying it wasn't a weapon persay. Still a dumb thing for Spicer to say.

WOW - tell that to the relative of a Jewish person who had a loved one sent to the gas chambers. Also wonder what Ivanka or Jared would say?

I already said that in the end it doesn't matter how they were killed. Just that it wasn't a weapon on the battlefield that killed them.

Hitler never used Chemical weapons on the battlefield, He also never dropped them on enemy city's.

Gas was used in the death camps.

I really wish people would stop using Hitler/Nazi references as most haven't a clue about what there talking about.(History wise)

Governments employ all manner of methods to kill innocent people. Does it really matter which one is used?

Well..that's because...like...Hitler didn't use chemical weapons....

So I don't see the issue.

It was gas.

If the media bashes Spicer for this one, it's just gonna make them look silly, not Spicer.
