Guys I think we are going a bit over the top here on our critism of lanny.
I THINK I get what hes trying to get at with this whole bush/nazi germany stuff.
Bush is Running a Campaign based on fear, fear of safety, fear of terrorism. The whole "Terror alert" level is just a bunch of bullsh*t to feed the media.
Lanny is trying to compare Bush Scapegoating people like Saddam who might very well have had absolutely nothing to do with the terror attacks that happened on 9/11 much like Hitler did with Scapegoating the Jews, the rounding up of prisoners in camps (Guantonomo Bay).
Bush and Hitler are/were both diverting attention from real issues by blaming people, if it isn't Saddam, its someone else, but keeping the attention away from the issues at home in particular.
Now I am not trying to say terrorists in this case are entirely innocent, this is just the point I think Lanny is trying to get across.
