    Actually, i wasn't looking for any similarities,

    and only answered the examples YOU gave.

    i haven't really studied Hitler and Nazi Germany, and leave it those more qualified to make any comparisons. The "answers" i gave to your "questions" took me about 15 minutes to find online,

    so i would imagine that greater minds than ours are truly studying the situation.

    I tend to suspect greater minds than ours are just glad they didn't spent 15 minutes looking up an answer to questions that are in their nature silly to answer.

    Goy, and it's plural Goyim are not ethnic slurs. It's Hebrew for "Nation or People", and is traditionally applied to non-Jews, however in the Torah it is sometimes used for the Jewish people, such as goy gadol in genesis 12:2.

    But anyways, as for the article.
    He compared Obama's policies to Hitler, then said he didn't make a Hitler comparison.
    It's a bit like saying I wanna fuck your sister, no disrespect. Just because you add that 'no disrepsect' at the end, doesn't mean that your statement isn't in and of itself disrespectful.

    Exactly and anyone arguing differently is just looking for a reason to defend.

    The only ones actually manufacturing nazi ideology today are neo-cons seeking to discount modern political views. Sorry not buying it!

    Nazi theology is old news, weak white people fearing other races.

    I skimmed the article....evoking Goebbels seems way off base.

    Really, for those who dislike Obama, a more fitting example to use would be modern Madison Avenue advertising. It just seems more authentic to compare Obama to, say, a Big Mac, which is sold as something which is good for you, but is not in reality good for you. I say if you want to look at how Obama was sold to the American people, and you dislike the method, do something useful and shine the light on our own good ole American marketing system.

    Obama wasn't sold to the American people they chose him over a tired old veteran that signed anti-American statements, and an over dressed moron from Alaska.
