For instance, just a few months ago if a lefty had been confronted about a Bush-Hitler quip, and challenged whether Bush had tried to commit genocide and tortured and starved millions of people, he/she would have slunk away mumbling. But today, these intellectual giants on the left have repeated their own lies and whoppers to themselves until they can't tell truth from political invective.
Just today, on 'that other website', there are threads about just this comparison. More and more of them are now saying 'no, Bush hasn't killed 6 million people or committed bizarre medical experiments on twins yet, but give him time, he will. Hitler also started out small. The comparison is completely appropriate'
As much as the left's collective psychosis disturbs me, if they continue on this bizarre path, conservatives should have an easy time getting reelected in 2004.
Yeah, I know. Bizarre. So far Bush has led the liberation of 50 million people from genuinely and literally fascistic governments, yet he'll emerge as a real Hitler any day now. Uh, huh.

I hear you. They've done grave damage to the nation -- and to the cause of liberal civilization generally -- but they've done even greater damage to themselves, diminishing the effectiveness of their longterm, incremental campaign of socialism and erosion of national sovereignty and individual liberty. One doesn't know whether to cry or laugh.
