Childlike Empress's US/Nazi comparison thread

[Oliver]

What, and pollute the CT threads with politics? That would be an awful thing to do!

Much worse than pollute politics with politics?

PAH! Weekly World News...

He was born 1889. In this case he died when he was 107 years old.

He died before his birthday.

 

[Oliver]

He died before his birthday.

So Bush was born in 1996?

 

[shemp]

No. Hitler was born on April 20, 1889. If he had died on a date in 1996 prior to April 20, he would have only been 106 years old, not 107.

Humans are not racehorses.*

*10 points if you know what I'm referring to.

I have no clue what you are referring to. Is this an english phrase?
What are your ideas for comparing Bush to Hitler or the US-Government to the Nazi-Government to get back to the thread?

The reference to racehorses is this: All thoroughbred racehorses are given an official birthdate of January 1, regardless of their actual birthdate.

As for the comparisons, I have several:

1. Hitler had a better tailor.

2. Bush had a better education, but probably wasn't as smart in terms of IQ.

3. Hitler had better artistic taste.

4. Bush never wrote a book (yet).

In other words, most such comparisons are silly. People who attempt to make serious comparisons between the two can rarely be taken seriously.

Well, at least invading poland reminds me to the iraq-invasion. Both without any serious reason.

OK, I'll bite.

Nazi Germany expected their war against the USSR to be short and victorious, therefore they did not even plan for a long and protracted conflict, let alone anything dealing with defeat.

George Bush and his lackeys expected the war against Iraq to be short and victorious, therefore they did not even plan for a long and protracted conflict, let alone anything dealing with defeat.

Ugh! I really hate comparing the USA to Nazi Germany. I never had to do such things until Bush became President.

Well the difference I suppose would be that invading the USSR was the start of a life and death struggle for the country. I don't think Iraq qualifies.

Hitler served in the infantry, during a war, on a war front, as a runner. He was twice decorated for said service in the War. (Iron Cross)

(Or he wasn't, and the Nazi's refabricated history to make it look that way.)

Bush likes to go running.

Recovering "German soil" that had been removed from Germany in 1919 is not "a serious reason?" (Of course, they took more than that . . . greedy buggers.)

OK, Oliver, you being a German, what is being taught about that in German schools? I am at a loss.

Well, as far i remember my schooltime we´ve been told that there was an alleged attack from poland that "justified" the invason of poland. I guess the real interests were strategic vantages - like in iraq.

 

[Pardalis]

Anyone who publicly criticized Hitler was dealt with ruthlessly.

So if you post again I guess it negates your theory.

If you are dragged off to a labor camp I owe you a coke.

Tadaaa! Still here!

Actually, this thread was initially meant for a certain poster who always ends up comparing Bush to Hitler, no matter how unrelated the subject matter is. I find this quite annoying so I created this thread so that she could do all the Nazi comparing that she wants and stay on topic in the other threads.

I despise any comparison between anyone and Hitler. I think it's a lame way to make a political point.

Hitler had a moustache. Bush has no moustache. Coincidence?

Are you familiar with "Godwin's Law?"

Too much so I'm afraid.

I guess Childlike will miss the thread since it´s moved in here.

The actual demands of Germany at the time were not unreasonable. They would get Danzig back into the Reich instead of being a free city, and certain rights in the Polish corrider that seperated East Prussia from the rest of Germany.

Of course, that was all bullsh-t, since (Goodwin) wanted a war with Poland and he would have had it no matter what.

There is no comparison. We kicked their ass. On their home field.
