mediamatters.org — Fox News Radio host Tom Sullivan took a call from a listener who stated that when listening to Barack Obama speak, "it harkens back to when I was younger and I used to watch those deals with Hitler, how he would excite the crowd and they'd come to their feet and scream and yell." Sullivan then played a "side-by-side comparison" of a Hitler speech a

This is the silliest thing I've yet to hear. Last time I checked Adolph was shrieking at the masses in a robotic voice (looking equally robotic beneath his creepy mustache).

hitler did unite a country into one of the greatest superpowers. as long as his ideologies are the same, what is the problem with obama having the same passion and patriotism?

You know Saddam Hussein used to give good speeches too, because all the people "cheering" for him knew that if they didn't "cheer" they could expect a visit from Saddam's thugs and just disappear.

Somebody needs to smack Fox News Radio in the face with a little Godwin's Law.

Hitler was not a bad man because he gave great speeches. He was a bad man for the terrible things his regime did while in power. Any charisma he had was just that. No Jews died directly from any speech. The ability to sway the minds of large groups of people is not itself evil. Charisma != evil, genocide == evil.

And so what's your point. He is still the best candidate. 1 million percent better than all the other dog turds running for president

I have always felt if Obama makes you tingle, Hitler would make you wet your pants. Just like Adolph, Obama play on ignorant desperate people who need his brand of "hope" like a violin, with all the vague empty promises he pushes. Only an ignorant person would ever vote Democrat, because if what you see what they believe in, it's Fascist Socialism, the exact same agenda Hitler brought to the table, Socialized medicine, jobs, uniting a broken country.The Nazis won their support primarily from the lower middle class and the peasantry. This guy was spot on.

Faux is pronounced "foe" but it means "false".I guess either way you look at it, it represents Fox news just fine in regards to what they are to America.
