I don't think the president is our enemy. Well, at least he's not my enemy. I like to think of him more as someone with a viewpoint that is more or less opposite of the one that I hold. I reserve the term "enemy" for terrorists and Nazis.

And don't give me any of that BS "Bush is a terrorist and a Nazi!" stuff. It just makes our side look silly.

I put myself in the shoes of the lives he has destroyed unjustly and he very clearly resembles Hitler, invading with patriotism and religion behind him.

Morality is not contingent on religion to exist. Therefore religion only detracts from the purity of morality.

George Bush most certainly does not resemble Hitler.

There are two things that piss me off more than anything:

1. Comparing abortion to the Holocaust.
and
2. Comparing Bush and/or the Republicans to Nazis.

Bush is not a Nazi. He is not a dictator, he isn't euthenizing the mentally retarded, and he isn't gassing Jews to death. Bush is not like Hitler.

Bush isn't just like Hitler, but he is introducing into this country fascist practices, which some Americans are willing to tolerate in the name of "National Security".

No, but he is invading countries unjustly and killing innocent people with patriotism and religion behind him. That is very much like Hitler.

Lots of people in history have done that. Do you really have to pick Hitler?

One could just as easily say that Hillary Clinton is like Stalin because she favors universal health care.

Sure, I could say he is like Saddam Hussein if you prefer.

Yes some innocent people die in war, but it doesn't even come close to the amount of innocent people that died under Saddams reign!
