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 vets. same goes for holocaust/hitler comparisons.

so, maybe they're not racist, but they sure are tactless and ignorant.
Memorial Day is for those who died during time of war VETERANS DAY is for vets, all of them. Regarding the nazi card, it is used by both left and right to illustrate points. Silly choice, as neither meet the intent of National Socialism or use their rather extreme tactics...
