The NAZI's had a party platform that resembles much of Obama's/Emmanuel's Democrat Party platform. Some points in particular are:
21. The State has the duty to help raise the standard of national health by providing maternity welfare centers, by prohibiting juvenile labor, by increasing physical fitness through the introduction of compulsory games and gymnastics, and by the greatest possible encouragement of associations concerned with the physical education of the young.
22. We demand the abolition of the regular army and the creation of a national (folk) army.
23. We demand that there be a legal campaign against those who propagate deliberate political lies and disseminate them through the press. In order to make possible the creation of a German press, we demand:
(a) All editors and their assistants on newspapers published in the German language shall be German citizens.
(b) Non-German newspapers shall only be published with the express permission of the State. They must not be published in the German language.
(c) All financial interests in or in any way affecting German newspapers shall be forbidden to non-Germans by law, and we demand that the punishment for transgressing this law be the immediate suppression of the newspaper and the expulsion of the non-Germans from the Reich.
Newspapers transgressing against the common welfare shall be suppressed. We demand legal action against those tendencies in art and literature that have a disruptive influence upon the life of our folk, and that any organizations that offend against the foregoing demands shall be dissolved.
24. ... a lasting recovery of our folk can only come about from within on the pinciple:
COMMON GOOD BEFORE INDIVIDUAL GOOD

We need to hang those “Republicans” who cooperate with the Demonrats.
We need to make life so miserable for the RINO’s that they will leave the GOP.
The next four years MUST be an era of ZERO tolerance for RINOs.
Conservatives must act to cut-off funding from these GOP turncoats. Let the party leadership know that they will not receive one thin dime until they return to conservative principles, and rid themselves of Dem-lite deviants.
If we do not put such policies into effect, then we will continue to be the minority party.
He has the Congress. He'll have the Court within 18 months.
The political domain is not linear, but rather a closed circle... and that is why the far right principles of nationalist socialism (fascism) appears so closely aligned with the far left principles of communism. If you travel the political circle, then return from whence you started; and a Constitutional Republic exists at the mid point of that course.
That’s what really TORQS me off.
Leftists & socialist apologists, when confronted with the agenda of the left, instead of defending it or denying it,
tell me that I’m wrong to worry about it because they’ll never be able to get it done.
It’s not whether they’ll be ABLE to do it. It’s because they WANT TO do it that is the problem.
“Let’s not overreach in our misery over the election. Barack Obama is going to turn out to be another liberal democrat and not much worse.”
These Hitler comparisons we see flying around only serve to marginalize those who make them much like the Bush=Hitler ones did to liberals. Obama will not be a Hitler. His four years will likely be absolute disasters but we aren’t going to have concentration camps. We will not invade our neighbors. We will have bigger government and a very weak foreign policy. I think a much better comparison is Jimmy Carter.
We need to make life so miserable for the RINO’s that they will leave the GOP.

Agreed ,, we have power over them and can affect change there .. we need “the hammer” back to make sure they know they get $0 in re-election cash or any sort of help.. it would also help to trash them in the media publicly whenever warranted.
I have come to that conclusion lately and I told that to an Obama supporter I know. He wouldn't listen. He thought I was calling him a NAZI. Really, what I was trying to do is show him the dangers of where we're going and that there is opposition in the truth to his ideas.
I agree. He will be as bad or worse than Carter, and probably (and hopefully) a one term President.
Look. Obama is not the new Hitler. You waste your time on this sort of nonsense. Use your time constructively, calling your representatives to block radical leftist measures.
What? Sensible immigration policy? Won't see that from Obama. Nor from Bush or McCain for that matter.
We Republicans lost and it’s probably a good thing for America.
No, the political domain is linear: from anarchy through libertarianism, various limited government doctrines with a little more latitude for state action (like American conservatism or European classical liberalism) to moderate statism, to totalitarianism.
What is non-linear, because it as actually a piece of propagandistic nonsense is the classification of fascism and Naziism as radically opposed to their near relative Communism. Since the 1920’s the ‘political spectrum’ using terms derived from the seating arrangement in the French parliament had no meaning beyond “right = opposing international socialism (a.k.a. Bolshevism)”, “left = supporting Bolshevism directly or indirectly”. “Right” is meaningless otherwise, since there is not other meaningful criterion that classes classical liberalism, Tsarism (in both its absolutist and never-instituted constitutional varieties), and Naziism as ‘similar’.
