Reply #23: Bush Is Not Hitler [View All]

[thomas_a]

While some might want to equate Bush with Hitler or Stalin there is really no comparison. Hitler and Stalin were ruthless, brutal but still intelligent men who rose from the gutter to the pinnacle of power in their respective nations and from their perches terrorized the world. Bush is a stupid, spoiled, lazy rich kid who has never worked a day in his life and has failed at everything he has tried. If his last name was not Bush he would be "Ol' Gil", the perpetually pathetic salesman on "The Simpsons". Being a dictator is hard work and a role for someone of boundless energy. Hard work is a concept totally foreign to Bush. He may dream of commanding a stalinist state but he lacks the drive and intelligence to make this dream a reality. No, the future of the United States is not to be found in Hitler's Germany or Stalin's Soviet Union but in Hosni Mubarak's Egypt; an unbelievably corrupt and incompetent failure of a state that lurches along from day to day barely able to avoid total collapse.
