Hitler a modern day Liberal

Hitler would by todays standard, be a modern day Liberal. His economic policies and political policies are completely socialist and liberal in nature.
To "fix" the economy in Germany, Hitler first tried to employ economic planning, much like the Soviet Union. After that failed miserably he decided making employing everyone in the government was a good idea which led to "full employment" in the Nazi military. Something socialists and communists tried to do was create a fully employed nation which shared the wealth. Politically, Hitler was also a liberal. He destroyed free-speech and hated capitalists (his party was also called the National Socialist Workers Party).
Something todays liberals also try to do with the fairness doctrine and government regulation of what business. Hitler was also a strong supporter of public welfare, funding of the arts, and gun control. By the way... People without guns can't defend themselves from the government, ask Holocaust survivors.

So the liberals are using fear tactics and propaganda to make us hate an entire religion?
The liberals are referring to the US as a "global empire"?
The liberals are trying to conquer the world and spreading themselves too thin on too many fronts?
The liberals are the ones infringing on our rights and extending Government control?

oh the irony...

You can access free history books in the public library. Arm yourself before you go believing what you read on the intrawebs.

Did you know that North Korea is Democratic nation? It says so right in the name - Democratic People's Republic of Korea.

Also, did you know that al Qaeda is a social club? They get together and drink tea and talk about current events and books they have read.

God speed and good luck.

Liberals do refer to us as a Global Empire... Read Howard Zinn's revolting book "A People's History of the United States" and you might learn something about the defunct ideology. Yes, liberals are infringing on our rights, they want stricter gun control, more taxes, and a tax and cap law that will make you pay more money if you don't use the amount of gas the "government" says you can use...among other things. Yes, liberals also use propaganda to make people hate an entire religion, its called school where evolution is passed as fact and there are no electives for other theories like Creationism. P.S. The American Nazi Party is against the War on Terror... just like liberals.

Unfortunatly for your argument, North Korea is not Democratic... But the National German Worker's Party was socialist. One of the first things Hitler did in power was nationalize the major corporations of Germany...hmmmm something that Liberals today want to do with healthcare. Try presenting argumentative information rather than just mocking people who have superior intellect.

I agree with stricter gun control. I also agree with the right to arms and the Constitution.
I do not believe that they had machine guns in mind.

The tax issue is no longer relevant to the election or to politics.
We are all ****ed now after this bailout.
Didn't the national debt that we are so worried about just double?
The bailouts are not finished.
We are about to start a war on a 3rd and 4th front.
There is no longer any chance that either candidate wont raise taxes on everyone.

I agree with you on giving creationism a fair showing.
But there is no comparison to Red alert level 3, buy duct tape for the chemical attack, millions of muslims want to kill us crap.

Never heard of the gas thing. Democrats are more focused on alternate energy at the moment than they are gas.

Now the Nazi party being against the war... that is interesting.
Had not heard that one.
They must have changed a lot lol.

Well todays Nazi Party is against the War on Terror because they believe it is helping Jews in some way, which it is and I think thats a good thing. Democrats don't just want to ban "machine guns" they also want stricter control on everyday firearms that we use. Bill Clinton himself banned assault rifles during his presidency. There aren't really "fronts" in this war due to the fact that we our military is in one country and not against several like the Nazis were. Different geography and situation. But I wasn't comparing Hitler military tactics to liberal military tactics, I was comparing economic policies and political policies.

You do understand that the form of government that was used in Nazi Germany, was fascism, an extreme right-wing form of government. This shows how inaccurate your premise is.

Zinn is an anrco-marxist, not exactly what one would consider liberal. He also uses a term in a critical way.
