sorry, folks. we don't have a dictatorship. i think it's sad that you compare bush to hitler. HITLER! he's not trying to annihilate an entire race, or take over the planet. he's a conservative president who is going to follow his views that we should protect america at all costs, and perhaps, AMERICA BEING THE SUPERPOWER, we need to take steps to prevent terrorist actions in other nations as well as our own.
i'd say that's MUCH better than selling military and nuclear secrets to the chinese (you think Clinton wasn't doing that?) if this happened while clinton was in office i would guess he would avoid war since he was screwing our military out of decent pay/equipment anyway and go have some more "Peace Talks" that we know are never going to work.
impressive liberalism in here though.

I totally agree with you. How can you guys even think about comparing Hitler to Bush? They may have a few similarities if you look hard enough, but you can find similarities between any two people in the world.
Hitler was a dictator who had a hatred for Jewish people. Bush isn't a dictator and although he is against terrorism, he doesn't hate the Islamic race as a whole. He didn't put Islamic-Americans in prison like Japanese-Americans were during WWII.
Hitler was a great speaker, he used his great speaking abilities to convince crowds or to manipulate people. Bush on the other hand is a terrible speaker and only convinces by his actions, because he is one of the least articulate leaders on earth.
Hitler fought other countries for selfish purposes, to gain land and more power. Bush is fighting to help the Afghanistan people, for the American dream, for the people's God given rights. Sure there may be a few benifits that may come to America, but the real purpose for fighting isn't to gain, but to prevent another tragedy like 9-11, and to help the oppressed people of Afghanistan(especially women). Some people may say that it is to gain money from their oil, but the costs of fueling planes, dropping dozens of bombs, and sending food supplies for thousands of Afghanistan people daily, is ENORMOUS. America is definetly losing more money than they are gaining by attempting to stop terrorism.
