>>Striking Similarities

Between what happened in Germany in the 30's and Obama today. Financial turmoil, propaganda, hope, change, eliminate dissent.<<

Syb -

OK, I see the financial turmoil, and I guess pretty much all political advertising is propaganda. Yes, Obama has been talking about hope and change.

But "eliminate dissent?" Where does he get that?

Is this guy seriously trying to promote the idea that Obama is a fascist?

In honor of both Godwin and the brief appearance of SI's political professional in chief here, I have to relay this pleasant little message as a prime example of the quality of "professional analysis" that rules on SI: #reply-25016105 . For people who don't get the cute little poetic reference, there's this: nationalconversation.typepad.com

I guess stuff like this is a good tonic for those who think that guilt by association is low. In the age of Rove, it's not nearly low enough to satisfy the professional connoisseur of political crap.
