Then one day I lightened up.

It’s fun! John Kerry is like Hitler because he supports increased highway funding. George Bush is like Hitler because he likes to fight wars. Michael Moore is like Goebbels because he uses film to advance his political views. Bill O’Reilly is like Julius Streicher because he’s also a crappy journalist. We’ve recently noted that Bush is like both Hitler and Mussolini because he came to power in an irregular manner and that the Supreme Court is like the King of Italy because they picked a leader I don’t like. No self-respecting opponent of PETA should fail to note that Hitler was a big animal rights activist. I don’t hear anti-smoking activists bring it up much but Hitler hated cigarettes and had this nutty (at the time) idea that smoking is very unhealthy

Hey, this is fun.
