In the midst of a segment on Rush Limbaugh on Sunday morning's Reliable Sources portion of CNN's State of the Union, host Howard Kurtz scolded his journalistic colleagues for a remark which “totally got missed by the media,” how CNN host D.L. Hughley charged “that the Republican convention 'literally looks like Nazi Germany.' I don't understand how he can get away with saying that. I think that is an outrage.”

Because DL is black?
Why did he think that it looked like a Nazi rally?
Was everyone chanting in unison, “YES WE CAN!”

They know nothing about history. All they know about the Nazis is that they forced people to do things against their will. Wonder who that sounds like...

Yes, everything looks like Nazi Germany to the Looney Left, except their own totalitarian statist policies.

Hughley can get away with the statement because nothing intelligent is expected out of him.

...the Republican convention 'literally looks like Nazi Germany.'

I guess he missed Invesco...straight out of 'Triumph of the Will'.

Who's the Nazi?

Excuse the source, but I was pretty sure his show was cancelled, so I googled it, and sure enough, it has been (on March 5.) They said it was due to budgetary restraints, but makes one wonder if they were cutting their losses before he said more “inflammatory stuff.”

Democrats; visceral animals who dedicate their brains to the socialist party line.

IMHO

Michael Steele is the one who should have objected in his face, since he was the guest to whom the statement was made.

Unfortunately, there is too much pandering going on.

The grammatically-challenged genius actually said the Convention” literally look (sic) like...” rather than “looks like”. The media fixed it for him.

I would say those videos of children singing to and praising Obama looked more like Nazi Germany than any Republican convention. But then he is probably looking at the color of the skin rather than the character thing.

Since we are no longer allowed to have free speech the following has been modified:

Since _________ was a left wing Democrat (all socialist are the same whether ___________ __________ or __________) I would assume that the newscasters are (99.9%) of that political character.

This comment shows how stupid the person is, the NAZI Party in Germany was a socialist group. So republicans have nothing to do with NAZI’s, but democrats do.

He gets away with it because we have a Socialist President and a Communist House Leader and a media that hates everything America and will do anything to protect the new Socialist regime.

He is just one more example of virulent anti-white racism. May what happened to my girlfriend thirty five years ago happen to every female member of his family. Twice!
