1. Is this guy fucking insane?
We lost 450,000 people during WW2. We were facing an enemy numbering in the tens of millions, not the tens of thousands.

And these people would NOT be in our communities - they'd be in high security federal facilities.

What he's REALLY afraid of is final proof, through example, that Gitmo was NEVER necessary.

4. rethug yes
but, i actually agree..the threat is different. nazi soldiers had different mindsets then jihadists. most of them were soldiers following orders and when seperated from high command, didnot have a hateful view of america. these terrorists hate america but the question is whether these people were terrorists and not now...if u were closed in cage just because of race.disgusting in my opinion

10. And yet, somehow, the less dangerous Nazis and Japanese imperialists
killed 450,000 of us in 4 years, and the scary scary terrorists have killed 7,000 in 7 1/2 years.

It's bullshit. Most the people in Gitmo are NOT jihadists, and there are fewer than 400 that need to be put somewhere - that's not even enough to fill a single cell block. They would be swallowed up in our high security prison system and never be heard from again IF they were convicted in a court of law. And if they can't be convicted, WHY are they in prison? Send them the fuck home.

6. Pete is right. Forget that the Nazis had annexed Europe and North Africa,
the current terrorists are worse. Forget that Nazi Germany was building an atom bomb, the current jihadists are worse. Forget that the Nazis killed over 50 million people worldwide, 9/11 was worse.:sarcasm: :sarcasm: :sarcasm:

7. The Nazi threat is NOTHING like the left-over repuke party...
These ass holes are the remnants of the American Nazi Party. In reality...not. But if you want to make stupid ass comparisons, then YES, they are WORSE than the Nazi threat to this country today and yesterday.

These sons-of-bitches are deceptive, lying, greedy and pathetic remnants of the once "grand old party". These are what is left after all the GOP has left to the "independent signature" on the voters registration card. Ashamed to even admit to the party they once attached themselves to. These are the blood thirsty, obstructions that have no purpose, no plans, no ideas for what they want for their party.

They just know they hate gays, taxes, love christian prayer in public, and they HATE anything that tries to help the needy in this country with THEIR dollars. F*CK THEM ALL!!

8. Jews
wasn't there some perceived insult the Repukes had concerning the Jews. As in.. after all they supposedly did for them, they should be voting republican?

So if they wonder why... watch this anti Semite. I thin 1996 I started to wake up a bit on this sort of bigotry because thats how I was brought up.

Big nose, took over Disney, unfair advantage. etc wasn't until someone shook me up on email that I woke up on that. Especially since my aunt (my dads brother is married to one. ) is Jewish. I still don't really understand it, but I no longer view the separation between church and state the way ACLU does.

I think all religions should be accepted practice at any court of law. So I went from one extreme to the other I guess. Always willing to hear about someones religion. Buddhist's are very fascinating
