[Behind the Aegis]

get it? From Jerry Springer Show? Anyway, I have already written this, so as to not plagerize myself, it is here.

Is Bush like Hitler? I have seen some make a case for it, but it always falls short. I assert that NO ONE is Hitler other than Hitler. He is in a “class” all by himself! Yes, like Hitler, Bush has invaded a sovereign nation. Like Hitler, Bush has manipulated the media and national patriotism. Like Hitler, Bush is despised worldwide. Although a few more examples exist, Hitler was responsible for one of the most horrific genocides to ever take place in the history of humans. Therefore, Hitler stands alone. Bush may “aspire” to Hitler’s power, but he is not systematically destroying an entire group of people, in order to wipe them from the face of the planet. Even Stalin and Pol-Pot and their horrific regimes didn’t reach the level of evil that Hitler achieved. Does this mean the acts carried out by Bush, Stalin and Pol-Pot are any less evil or dastardly? OH HELL NO! But, why not compare Bush to Caesar? Napoleon? Genghis Khan? They are all examples of bat-shit crazy despots. Do you use Hitler for shock value or is there an actual comparison? When someone says “Hitler,” do you think of the struggling/failed artist? Do you think “the weasly, little nobody who could barely muster support, at first?” I bet you think “crazed madman, who sent 12 million hapless souls to their deaths!” So even if there are comparisons between Bush (or any leader) to Hitler, the only impression that people think when they hear that name is “crazed madman, who sent millions to their deaths.”
