So you agree with Beck? Al Gore is using Hitler's tactics? We're on our way to a one world government run by the UN.
If so Mick than you're a bigger Assclown than Beck.
Or maybe just a dickhead. Hard to separate the two sometime.
It's gotta burn that all your lovely mancrushes are going down in flames and that Americans are waking from their media induced slumber to discover that the've been had.
But you're no rat Mick. You're not jumping ship.
Hope you never have to look your children in the eye and explain how you stood behind the biggest bunch of criminals in American history. Hell, forget the kids, you're a Christ-eater, You'll have to stand before the Lord.
Good luck bubba. I'll let some ice cubes fall from my martini from time to time, And I'll kick 'em in your general direction.

This is a candidate for a "Fucktard" award, Pesky.
Thought Kibbitzer taught you better than that...

Huh? Pesky's the one that I learn from.
And, btw (apropos of nothing other than itself)pound-for-pound, the Pesky-Mick dialogues are almost worth putting on Pay-per-View.

So, wait. Mr. Fly, the guy who has this post and graphic, whose coblogger used this, is bashing other Nazi-imagery users? Um, yeah.

Mike, yelpers like you form the crux of my point. If you want to cry when someone makes these kinds of comparisons you need to be very careful when you make your own. In this case it's not the comparison that I find bothersome--- make all the comparisons you want. It's the stupidity of the comparison. It's in opening lines of the text.
And I typed it slowly so even you can read it.

Pesky, I find what you wrote to be in questionable taste.
I mean, who puts ice cubes in a martini?

"Yelpers?" "Cry?" You have to mischaracterise my calm point like that to make your own?
I simply point out that you walk the very road you decry in Beck. If you want to argue degree, that's your prerogative, but the point remains.

pardon me while I slip on my original jackboots.
Mike is arguing that it is just as wrong to say that Al Gore is as bad as Hitler because he's trying to save the earth from global warming, as it is to compare republicans to Nazies because they advocate unlimited power for the president, subject to now law but his own, to include torture and indefinite detention without trial for American citizens, and the silencing of all debate contrary to these principles.
Stop global warming.
Replace American Democracy with police state.
Which of these, I ask, is more representative of actual Nazism? Which is closer to the historical model?
It is crazy to compare Gore to Hitler.
It is not crazy to compare Bush to Hitler. It's crazy not to compare Bush to Hitler - no matter what the standards of reasonable argument might say. Those standards were written before we had George W. Bush to contend with.
Back when Hitler was around, people were probably saying, "No, you go too far when you compare him to Napoleon - he is nothing like Napoleon." And it was true, except for that whole plunging Europe into years of horrible wars and the deaths of millions thing, they were nothing alike.
To argue that Hitler and Nazi comparisons are off limits is to stifle reasonable debate. If the comparisons are valid, they should be made, no matter how much they fluster our professional fainters and guardians of polite debate. When the comparisons are not valid, they should be invalidated through argument. Not through some ridiculous pre-Bush ban on Nazi comparisons.
