Well the Nazis were antiSmoking...

Does Rush Limbaugh's use of the term feminazi for radical feminists also rub your fur the wrong way?

These guys call on the state power to get their way, but don't make the connection. It's a valid one.

You're right, people need to realize that the term ‘nazi’ has now come to mean not only the National Socialist party that ruled Germany for those years but also any extremely strict rule, law or person. Hence the ‘Soup Nazi’ of Seinfeld or the 'anti-smoking nazis or the term 'feminazi'.

Of course this does not mean that is okay to compare Bush with Hitler or the other stupid comparisons they are making at moveon.org or Democratic Underground.
