They think it's nuts. They voted for Bush, and they favor the Patriot Act, which you may have noticed was approved 89-10.
Marv, I think you are missing the point made by the teacher, me, snowy's grandfather, and others... The point that we are not saying Bush=Hitler. We are saying that some of the PR tactics and some of the arguments Bush uses are reminescent of the tactics used by Hitler in the 30s on his rise to power.
