A wistful suggestion to the Dems on bashing material
I know Howard can't do this, because it's too volatile. But perhaps some lower level Dem. official or talk show host, etc. can do a detailed comparison of the 1933-1938 Nazis to the present day regime. Even though there will be differences, the comparison just might stick in some people's minds.

1. Interesting way of putting it...
Senator Durbin has been doing alot of that, getting right to the heart of the problems with Gitmo and elsewhere.

3. Comaprisons To Nazi Germany?
Overall, I think the Nazi comparisons have been so overdone, they have lost their impact. But, is this what your looking for?

5. Half of the youth today
Don't really know anything about Germany, Nazis, Holocaust, WWII, and don't wish to or won't believe it ever was! They may know someday, when it is too late to change, and the world decides to change the US!
