Rush Limbaugh, as always, proves himself to be not only insensitive
and rude, but illogical as well.
He has stated only positive things that the Democrats and the Nazis
have in common: understanding the problems of big business, being
against pollution, helping to keep people working, and improving
infrastructure.
He could not, of course, claim that Democrats support the death of
innocent people, as the Nazis did. If anything, they support the life
of people, by wanting them to have health care more than Republicans,
by supporting alternative energy more than Republicans, and by being
more against wars for oil than Republicans.
Socialism and Fascism are not the same. Republicans media pundits,
bloggers, town hall disturbers, and other constituents forget this.
The policies of liberal democrats are socialist, in that they believe that
the wealth that the rich have redistributed to themselves through
inflation (raising prices faster than wages, salaries, and benefits)
should be re-redistributed back to the workers who made the rich rich,
if only enough to keep them alive and healthy.
It is, as always, the Republicans who are the fascists, and much more
like the Nazis. If you want proof of this definition, see the entry for
fascism at Wikipedia:
It details many beliefs that are obviously those of both Nazis and
Republicans, but you need only read the first line to see the similarity:
“Fascism comprises a radical and authoritarian nationalist political
ideology and a corporatist economic ideology.”
Look at the facts:
Republicans and Nazis love to invade and occupy other countries.
Republicans and Nazis care more about the corporation and the country
than the individual.
Republicans and Nazis like to yell and pound their fists and shout out
hateful, fear-mongering propaganda.
Republicans, like Nazis, will soon be relegated to the history books as
small minded bigots who proved evolutionarily invalid.
