It seems like if a person is a white sheet wearing KKK racist (like Robert Byrd literally was) all that person has to do is say, "I'm sorry, I take it back" and all is forgiven. The person is then labeled a great statesman by many.

Obviously Nazism is over yet comparisons to it continually get made in political discussions/debates and people still draw cartoon images of Presidents made to look like Hitler. It is all way over the top and an inappropriate exaggeration IMO.

You've probably heard the line that the first person to bring up Hitler or Nazis is the one that has lost the argument.
