For those of us who think beyond using inaccurate comparisons, your use of comparing hitler to Bush immediately ID'ed you as an ABB and that any further point you try & make is probably based on sensationalism, hyperbole, Dem talking points or C-BS "news" bulletins.

You softening the traits attributable to hitler's actions in order for you to try & make your argument hold are an admirable way of trying to save face, but hitler was much worse than too aggressive and misguided.

So, your analogy is still wrong, unless of course you simply admit that hitler is the worst you can think of, and that you are ABB and don't care if your analogies make sense or make you look like a hysterical Kerry Dem.

Hitler set a standard for atrocities. Bush does not even come close to that standard, he does not even approach it.

"For those of us who can think beyond binary terms"

Sure your point holds, but to compare Bush to Hitler is hyperbole and, imo, unfair.
