This is a hypothetical scenario: Turns out Hitler isn't dead and is in fact alive and well and running for President* and for no adequetly explained reason so is Bush.

So it's your choice. Keep in mind by now Hitler would be old and frail. but possibly have that same moustahce that made him sexy so many years ago.

Poll comming.


IGNORE THE FACT THE POLL SAYS "HOTLER". I'VE GONE BEYOND CARING.



*The clause preventing foreign Presidents doesn't apply in my universe, ok?

Hitler's not STUPID, so it wouldn't be funny for Canadians like me. I get a kick out of Dubya.

Wow, right now Bush is just slightly more popular than Hitler. It's kind of like a choice between arsenic diluted in some water and straight arsenic.

Hitler, simply because i like the idea of a foreign president, assuming he's a citizen. [/discrimiation rant]

It's not like Congress would go along with his nefarious plans to exterminate the Jews, so that's one thing we wouldn't have to worry about. In fact, Congress wouldn't go along with almost anything he had to offer, so gay marriage could be bulldozed through the Senate. :)

Hitler would trash the consitution, make his own Congress and Senate, and attack the oppostion with Chlorine gas. That's why America needs a Governor General.

I voted Bush :(

But then I realised.. Bush and Hitler are the same people.. except Bush is pro-life.. So metaphoricly (did I use that right? sp?) We are all voting for the same person.

Is it bad that I like Hitlers Super (Power?) Race idea? I mean come on, there would be no kkk, no hate crimes, no "tsk tsk" words..

Actually, Hitler is stupid. Come to find out he didn't know how to run a full scale war. He made several big mistakes including declaring war on the United States on December 10th and on the USSR on June 22, 1941.

Hitler isn't as smart as people try to make him out to believe.

I'll vote for dubya because I just don't like hitler.

It's not that it's a bad idea, it's that he thought that race had to be white. Ideally the super race would and should be out of ALL the races (which there's a hell of a lot of). Then there'd be no kkk, hate crimes [leaving out the fact that premeditated harmful crime against anyone is a hate crime], and tsks tsks.

However, that would take thousands of years and a new ice age between now and then is much more likely. :(

Even on his worst day... i'll take President Bush over a man who systematically attempted to exectue an entire race by means of starvation and literla work till death. Bush might not be the brightest man on the planet, but he hasn't turned into a genocidal maniac killing millions of those he deemed to be "inferior."

That someone, perhaps excepting our Aryan friends on these boards, could choose Hitler over anyone (with the possible exception of Stalin) is simply shocking. Bush or Nixon... now maybe there would be room for debate. But Hitler? I think it's time to take a step away from the computer, put down the mouse, and check back into reality. Compare the Patriot Act with its mostly hypothetical victims to those who really did suffer under the Nuremberg Laws (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuremberg_Laws). To even compare the two is insulting and belittling... not to the current populace, but to those who truly suffered and died on account of Hitler's policies.

For those who choose Hitler, i hope you get exactly as you wish. See what a reign of terror is really like.

Hitler. Because if Osama Bin Laden attacked us, he wouldn't start any "Iraqi Freedom" garbage in response because Iraqi's aren't part of his master race.

In fact, he'd just probably nuke the entire middle east, but that's still better than operation iraqi freedom.

How much less? For me they're just on par, except Hitler had better hair, but that's cancelled out by thr extermination of the Jews.

From: Breaking Godwins Law, Voices of Unreason (http://www.voicesofunreason.com/fullthread$9042)


I close this introduction to my Breaking Godwin's Law series with the tale of a Holocaust survivor who would know better than I what deja vu in this case actually feels like.

From JusticeForNone.com (http://justicefornone.com/article.php?story=20050527204356114), told by the site's administrator
-
So I heard the moving van pull up this morning. When I got home this evening I happened to spy my neighbor (he's like 85 years old - I don't know exactly, but he's old, talks and moves very slowly) standing on the sidewalk next to the van. I walked over and shook his hand, and we started talking. I asked him where he was moving, and he said, "Back to Germany."

[...]

"No," he answered me. "I'm going back because I've seen this before." He then commenced to explain that when he was a kid, he watched with his family in fear as Hitler's government committed atrocity after atrocity, and no one was willing to say anything. He said the news refused to question the government, and the ones who did were not in the newspaper business much longer. He said good neighbors, people he had known all his life, turned against his family and other Jews, grabbing on to the hate and superiority "as if they were starved for it" (his words).

He said he was too old to see it happen right in front of his eyes again, and too old to do anything about it, so he was taking his family back to Europe on Thursday where they would be safe from George W. Bush and his neocons. He seemed resolute, but troubled, nonetheless, as if being too young on one end and too old on the other to fight what he saw happening was wearing on him.

I gotta tell you - it was chilling. I let him talk, and the whole time, my gut was churning, like I had mutated butterflies in my stomach. When he was finished, he shook my hand, gripping it really hard, until his knuckles turned white and he was shaking. He looked me in the eyes, hard, and said, "I will pray for your family and your country."

in which state are they running for presidency? in nearly any country, i think they could do with some run by hitler(he was considered a great peacemaker before the war).

althought, just don't let him run for prolonged periods of time:p

I would like to start by stating (in want for a better word)... ^^COCK^^

no doubt if you were asked to descuss what you think about the deaths of innocents in Iraq, you'd go on a "Bush is evil" rant. But given the chance ud choose the death of thousands by someone who invaded countries, and would still do provoked or not.

Also the whole idea of the master race was to kill those that didnt fit in to it (and those that did if they opposed him, but thats another matter). so the iraqis, by not fittin in they would be killed.

So one more time ^^COCK^^

Well, Hitler seemed to be fairly good at managing the economy, getting people into positions where they weren't really wanted, and hiding corruption.

Things Bush doesn't seem to be so good at.

Bush may be evil, but at least he doesn't invade sovereign nations unprevoked and install puppet governments in thrall to his fascist regime. Oh, hang on...

...*pause*...

A couple of thoughts.

1. Oh, come on - let reality set in. This is outrageous.

2. Hmmm...is it really possible that Bush is so bad we need to resort to a Hitler comparison?

3. No - but bad enough. When the perspective of time puts this period into history books, it will be listed among the worst US presidential adminstrations ever. That is, provided these clowns don't get to write the history books themselves.

i didn't vote in the poll. could not bring myself to select bush, and certainly could not select the only alternative given

Not a fair question. That's the same as asking what the poll results would be if stupidity, croonyism, and "legalized torture" were discounted from the issue...

I'd pick Hitler. Why? He'd be extremely old and frail, making him easy to kill. Also, he'd be almost universally despised, and would have no support or protection, making him a very easy target. So, I'd put a bullet in his head, lob off his head, and keep it as a souvenir. :D

Sorry, but it would have to be Hitler, and only for the reason that he was fluent in his language. :p

Besides, if he got elected, there'd be a coup d'etat, and that would be beneficial for America...

Seriously, if I was an American in this scenario, I'd abstain from voting.

... I voted Hotl- sorry, Hitler on the poll, and I'm beginning to regret it already. Damn you "vote and bog off" system...
