But at least I get it now..better at any rate. It is sad that it took a violent insurrection for me to see cartoon Hitler as an actual but stupider Hitler. This has been a wake up call for morons like me. I dismissed him as a moronic reality show creep.

Until last week I was lumping Romney in with this guy. I feel so stupid. I still dislike Romney, but good god he is at least sane. He did the right thing at a critical time. The ability to distinguish between dislikable and even nutball cons and actual nazis is important. If the boot were ever on the other leg, I would like them to see me as different from some sort of ecofascist (if such people exist in large numbers at all. I have seen no proof outside of the Unabomber.) Not that I will ever again look for jobs in the US or even visit-I can guarantee that-but still fascists across the globe are scary and the roots have to be found.
