it doesn't make you or them racist, it makes them lazy, bad arguers. it also does a HUGE disservice to the history and memory and immensity of the holocaust and the destruction wrought by the third reich.

don't like something, just compare it to nazism or the holocaust or hitler! now you've got the immensity of history behind your barely put together argument! you win! that's b.s. from both liberals and conservatives.

not to mention the audacity of comparing some petty political fight to the horrors of nazi germany. it makes americans sound like spoiled brats. if you think this is bad, maybe you should do a little more studying and a lot less shouting and gun cleaning. i equate it to mattress and car sales for memorial day. what a gaudy, tacky idea that does nothing to honor or remember our fallen soldiers. same goes for holocaust/hitler comparisons.

so, maybe they're not racist, but they sure are tactless and ignorant.

EDIT: memorial day correction
