Not to TC Powderworks, Hitler wasn't a communist. I can understand why a guy would be pissed he's being compared to someone, when the person doing the comparison lacks a basic understanding of history.

BTW I fixed your "note"

DES MOINES, Iowa – A billboard created by an Iowa tea party group that compares President Barack Obama to Adolf Hitler and Vladimir Lenin is drawing sharp criticism — even from fellow tea party activists who have condemned it as offensive and a waste of money.

What does this tell you?

By all means, compare a guy that want to return to the old tax rate and copy Canada's health care system to two leaders that executed millions of people in attempts at world domination.

And who said rational civil discourse is dead?

Perhaps Marx would have been a closer comparison. Regardless, this one-term President is doing what few others could have in our country today ... Making people take notice of their responsibility to vote and what the consequences of not making an educated decision can lead to.

Oh, and I'll use this opportunity to plug this ...

also Hitler may not have been a communist( he was in the nazi, or "workers" party), however Lenin was, and Hitler's true party affiliation may not be communist, but the general public has no distinction

I'm pretty sure Bush did a fine job of that already... you know, given that 2008 was the highest voter turnout in recorded voting history as a number, and the highest we've had in 40 years as a percentage.

However, the vote wasn't to remove Bush from office. Term limits did that. So, I'm not sure that your rebuttle is valid. If you'd said they were at their highest in 2004 it would totally have made your case.

I see sfctardation in this thread.

They were to prevent someone from continuing his policy... I'm not sure how you can miss that point.
