Tech, this article violates one of my hard and fast rules - namely when a writer starts comparing someone to Hitler, he's lost all credibility. It's the most gutless, weakest argument out there. No one is like Hitler, not Saddam, Castro, Mao, Kim Jong Il - no one. Until someone starts a world war and gets his genocide going, everyone needs to avoid the Hitler comparisons.

I can understand arguing that someone uses propaganda, tries the Nazi tactics for rigging elections, plays the patriot card - these are all used by the left and the right, but these hacks need to back away from the Das Fuhrer comparisons. It's lazy and insulting.
