There's one major difference, though: even though godwin's are bad form regardless of circumstances, I can back up the comparison between the last 8 years of Amercain politics and the Nazis much better than any teabegger can between the last 9 months and the Nazis. Is it a direct comparison? Shit no. Still, a comparison including things like the suspension of rights after a terrorist attack, military expansionism, lying to the public in order to support a war, and silencing decent do speak to at least a relative comparison.
BTW, how many anti-war leftists turned to murder and domestic terrorism to protest against Bush?
