I have never called George Bush a Nazi and I think the people on the left who did were morons.  I also think that the Congressman's statements were reprehensible.  He apologized, but he shouldn't have said it.    You, however, do not condemn similar rhetoric on the right, you happily engage in it.  As for the Thatcher thing,  pointing out that a politician was unpopular at the end of her career is hardly the same as equating the President and progressive liberals with dictators and murderers.    I could have pointed out, that Margaret Thatcher was a huge supporter of Agusto Pinochet, the fascist dictator of Chile who had any critics of his regime "dissapeared" and buried alive in cement walls.  Hardly an example of small government.  

This is why it is difficult to have an intelligent conversation with you.   Instead of debating the merits of policy, you engage in hyperbolic attacks that have no basis in reality.
Lily Lily Silly Billy,

The statement that Socialism eventually runs out of money and is unsustainable, (ProgLibs LOVE that word!), whether or not that statement has any merit, has nothing to do with Thatcher's political popularity or her opinion of Pinochet. You are attempting to link the arguer's personal characteristics to how factual the subject's statement is. That is ad hominem.

I suppose if a ax murderer wrote that 1 plus 1 = 2, you would deny it based on their character.

Finally, if you take  Socialist or Communist philosophies and line them up and compare  them to Progressive Liberal philosophy, (I assume to be your camp), as well as Classical Liberal philosophy, (Me!), how do you really think they would match up? That's all I was saying, but you love to read more into things than are really there. Focus dear, focus.

Dear Sir or Madam:

In the dark annals of human evil, history has recorded the Holocaust, the Rwandan genocides, and Stalin's mass starvation program. And now, United Airlines flight 671 from Reagan International to Memphis International on January 17th, 2011. I know, because I am a survivor of that dark exemplar of man's cruelty to man.

Perhaps I should have known what I was in for when your brutal gate agent refused to issue me an upgrade - despite being a Premier/1K member for over 10 years. Or when your flight crew Gestapo confiscated my carry on Roll Tote, even though I had nearly fit it into the overhead bin. But the true measure of the horror did not dawn on me until me and my fellow passengers were left taxiing on the tarmack for over twenty minutes in the Auschwitzian Airbus A320 cattlecar, in temperatures approaching 85 degrees, not knowing our fates or whether we would make it to our fundraising dinners.

Santayana once said, "those who forget history are doomed to repeat it." And I say to you and your fellow United criminals: "never again," unless you credit my account at least 2 flight segments for this travesty.

Sincerely,

Representative Steven Cohen
Washington, DC

"At the heart of the difference between capitalism and socialism is a question about the calculation of economic value. In a free-market economy, economic values are established economically; that is, a product is worth what you can sell it for on the marketplace... Socialism breaks with capitalism on precisely this issue. It seeks to infuse the fundamental, deep processes of the economy - the setting of prices - with moral meaning. Indeed, normative, moralistic methods for calculating economic values have obsessed socialists and other utopian thinkers for over a century. It is one of history's great ironies that capitalists built decent and humane societies on the basis of an amoral approach to the economics of pricing, whereas socialists built exploitative and inhumane societies on the basis of a morally inflamed approach to economics."

Homophobic Barbarians: 10 Reasons Every Gay American Needs to Support the War Against Islamofascism

by Megan Fox

For all the screaming about intolerance and bigotry against gays here in America — driven by many people’s objection to changing the definition of the centuries-old institution of marriage — many so-called liberals don’t seem to notice the actual intolerance and murder being meted out on gays in Muslim countries. Homosexuals living in Muslim countries suffer dire consequences for coming out including whipping, banishment, humiliation and even death by stoning, hanging or familial stabbing in accordance with Islamic law. Homosexuals in the Muslim culture are encouraged to commit suicide rather than bring shame on their families...
