Sean Spicer should be fired for saying Syria's president is worse than Hitler ... so says the Anne Frank Center.
The Center's executive director said Spicer's statement is "the most evil slur upon a group of people we have ever heard from a White House press secretary." He also called for Spicer's immediate termination.

This Anne Frank Society is, afaik, a new one invented by a dem for this type of work.
Hitler probably should not have been his example. Yes it was a bad mistake but apologize and go on.
Exactly. I wish everyone would drop the Hitler crap. It is as old and bad as the race card!
We know what he meant. He said Hitler is despicable and never denied the Holocaust, calling it horrendous. He was trying to say that Hitler didn’t drop chemical bombs on towns. Obviously Hitler gassed millions in concentration camps, though.
No question that he screwed up his statement badly. James Mattis managed to articulate the same point, but he articulated it properly.
If Sean Spicer was denying the Holocaust and defending Hitler he should be fired immediately, but he wasn’t.
The outrage mafia either knows what he meant and are doing this for political points OR they actually are too ignorant to understand what he was trying to say.
He screwed up his words in a job that requires one to use them flawlessly. He’s human. This storm will pass, but the SJWs will toy with this one for a while.
They can go to hell they did nothing under all those years of Obama screwing Israel and now they want to play this super sensitive crap that they own Hitler. They don’t.
“Sean clearly meant that Hitler never use poison gas on the battlefield”
I’m sure he did...that said, it was a really, really stupid comparison!!
When’s the copyright on Anne Frank’s book was due to expire they made up the story that she was a co-author:
Because there was this **other guy** who had who helped author he book and had died in 2013, well, whaddya know, years ago that there was another 65 years left on the copyright.
how do you like that bit of Camel trading, huh..?
I see democrats jumping on this wagon, calling him a holocaust denier and demanding his resignation.
He needs to go away for the benefit of the Trump administration.
Sean Spicer just forgot the 1st rule of politics: Never compare anything to Hitler
Besides, he verified his info with susan rice and john f’n kohn-heinz-kerry. Sheesh.
This is the latest broadside (I thought they were done, but NNOOOOOOO) from the Organized “Official” Spokesgroups for Israel and all those interested in promoting the idea that they should be considered the moral arbiters of how and in WHAT WAYS,and with WHAT LANGUAGES American politicians are expected to support American Jewry and Israel. They literally jump at the chance, even though Trump is infinitely more pro-Israel than Obama ever was, or was ever inclined to be -—interesting, huh? But what are they after? On whose behalf, in the bigger picture, are they doing this?

Anne Frank Center for Mutual Respect
Anne Frank Center for Mutual Respect, the independent U.S. national organization among Anne Frank organizations worldwide, aims to "address civil and human rights across America." Through educational programs and grassroots organizing, the Anne Frank Center for Mutual Respect "calls out prejudice, counters discrimination and advocates for the kinder and fairer world of which Anne Frank dreamed."[1]
Anne Frank Center for Mutual Respect works to fight hatred of refugees and immigrants, as well as antisemitism, sexism, racism, Islamophobia, homophobia, transphobia, bias against the differently abled and any other hate that runs counter to the American promise of freedom except for opening borders in Israel of course.[1] The organization has been vocal in its opposition to the civil and human rights policies of President Trump.[2][3][4] The organization opposes President Trump's executive orders to ban Muslim refugees and to build a wall on the U.S.-Mexico border,[5] pointing out that Anne Frank and her family were refugees to whom the United States had refused entry.[6]
Anne Frank Center for Mutual Respect is headquartered in New York City, and opened an additional office in Los Angeles in 2017. The organization conducts educational programs and community organizing across the entire United States.[1]
The organization's executive director is Steven Goldstein, a civil rights leader whose work has been the subject of two motion pictures, the 2007 Oscar-winning documentary Freeheld, and the 2015 full-length feature film of the same name.[7] Goldstein became executive director of the Anne Frank Center for Mutual Respect in 2016.[8]

setting aside the refusal to investigate the alleged chem attack in Syria, etc in order to get to the facts:

Not just no, but HELL NO!!!!!
“As President Trump prepares orders to wall out Mexicans and shut out refugees from America, today marks one of the most hateful days in our nation’s history,” Goldstein wrote on the Center’s Facebook page. “Donald Trump is retracting the promise of American freedom to an extent we have not seen from a President since Franklin Roosevelt forced Japanese Americans into internment camps during World War II.”
