OK, this is going too far. While I have no love for the DNC, calling them the NSDAP is stepping WAY over the line...

For anyone who doesn't know, NSDAP stands for "Die Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei" AKA the NAZI party. NSDAP is the actual German acronym for the NAZI party.

Get a grip, people.

I have read on FR before that there is a list of dems in congress that do have their names on a socialist party list--I may be wrong, but I am pretty sure that I have seen in on here in the past--

Not sure about all mentioned in this article--but if you listen to what Hillary told the fancy woman's group out in San Francisco last year, you could be convinced that their goal is socialism.

In case you didn't hear about it---Hillary told the women that "we will be taking your money and giving it to the poor people that need it" or something to that effect---income redistibution --and proud of it

I agree that it is going too far to compare the 'Rats to Hitler's Nazis to the extent that it brings with it conotations of death camps and genocide.

However, the left has for decades compared conservatives to the Nazis and most MSM mentions will invariably refer to the Nazis as "far right." There is a need for people to realize what Nazism actually stood for and it was national socialism, government seizure of private property and the elimination of basic freedoms (speech, religion, assembly, bearing arms, press, etc.). Hitler used the "pro-German" angle as a rallying cry, but this was secondary to his true endeavor which was worldwide socialism controlled by a strong central government. It is this "forgotten" history of Nazism/fascism that is conveniently overlooked by the left today, and it is, in fact, a description of them.

If we remove Hitler's calls (and programs) of racial extermination and stick to his political agenda (as put forth in "Mein Kampf"), we will find distinct similarities between his politics and those of many in the DNC.

Well, they do advocate socialism, and they advocate it on a national basis.

Just sayin', ya know?

But referring to them as outright Nazis is indeed a bit over the top. Are they liars, hypocrites, and traitors? Yes, absolutely. But Nazis? Naaah.
