Who is more evil Bush or Hitler?

In fact, several disturbing analogies exist between George W. Bush and history's most infamous fascist, Adolph Hitler: Both men assumed power in defiance of the will of the majority; both men used “great lies” to pursue their warmongering agendas; both men preyed upon humanity's basest instincts to disseminate those “great lies”; both men were appeased by the British government, Hitler through Neville Chamberlain and Bush through Tony Blair; both men were willing to use national tragedies to justify the destruction of civil liberties, Hitler through the burning of the Reichstag and Bush through the September 11th terrorist attacks; both men were/are suspected of either participating in, or ignoring warnings about the imminence of, these tragedies in order to enhance their political stature and power; both men demonstrated no compunction about exploiting a culture of death for political self-aggrandizement, Hitler through his well-publicized genocide campaigns, and Bush who, while governor of Texas, routinely denied DNA tests to death row inmates, even though such tests could prevent wrongful executions; both men were willing to appeal to racism, Hitler through his quest for a “master race,” and Bush through his condemnation of affirmative action policies, which primarily benefit racial minorities.   While denouncing such policies as “preferential treatment,” Bush predictably displayed no such aversion to the preferential treatment enjoyed by wealthy white people, like himself, through a system of nepotism and cronyism; both men reveled in war and exploited the military to satiate their personal ambitions and vendettas; both men used war to enrich their political cronies; both men demonstrated contempt for international law and the concerns of the world community; and both men believed they were/are on some holy crusade inspired by a “divine province” that placed them into power.\n\nBut the disconcerting advantages the Bush dictatorship enjoys over Hitler's are the scientific advances that have made the implementation of fascism much easier.  New technologies have given the government Orwellian capabilities. Programs now exist to decipher every stroke made on a computer keyboard, to spy upon people from great distances, to create databases designed to blacklist and harass those who don’t obsequiously genuflect before official dogma, and to install microchips into vehicles, and even into people, to monitor their every move.  In addition, advances in genetics provide the opportunity to establish a “master race,” simply by denying insurance or other medical care to those with genetic proclivities to certain diseases, and to create DNA databases that will enable the government to categorize and/or spy upon individuals with certain genetic predispositions.  \n\nThere is also the glut of “recreational” technology to keep Americans inactive and thus ill-informed: computer games, videos and DVDs, 24-hour sports broadcasts, hundreds of television channels available through cable or satellite, and a media enamored with a “cult-of-celebrity” to distract the populace with superficialities (innocuously called “infotainment”) while social injustices are ignored and freedom and democracy decimated.  In fact some social critics recently noted the irony that more outrage had been generated over the methods used to select a champion in college football than the methods used to elect a president.\n\nOf course some may argue that Hitler clearly was compelled by evil motives, while Bush was compelled by “benevolent” ones.  But this ignores the reality that the primary difference between Bush and Hitler may simply be milieu, not mind-set.  In fact, actor/activist Harry Belafonte once courageously asserted that the Bush administration is “possessed of evil.”  These words should not be dismissed as hyperbole.  Hitler, after all, did not begin his campaign for world domination until fascism was

Bush is Adolf re-incarnated.  He actualy says exactly waht Hitler used to, including ' Now I have political capital'.

You're not bush bashing? Too bad. i thought i'd found a kindred spirit. Lol. Anyways, if i believed in a heaven and hell, i'd say Bush would be going to the deepest circle of hell. The one reserved for the Hitler's and the Stalin's. Though he's not quite as bad as those two, he still belongs in that category.

I consider them both pretty evil.  Consider this, Stalin's mass killings were mostly before WW II (100,000 a year), and mostly from his purges and 'collectivization in early 30's with the latest estimate of around 20-30 million dead.  His genocide wasn't a full time occupation to his death, unlike Hitler, but that's where the comparison stops.  When comparing the two, both were evil, both put people in concentration camps, both committed genocide, both were dictators, both...well you get the picture.  The one factor Hitler had over Stalin tho, Hitler was insane.  Stalin was just angry and distrustful.\n\nOther things to consider,Stalin killed more people, Hitler started WW II, Hitler killed the Jews and some people in his nation, but he started the war that resulted in many troops dying on both sides.  Hitler may be considered the greater of both evils; tho Stalin killed more people it is said, Hitler's action ensured that those loses were as high as possible.

Now, now.  Just because Hitler and Bush used the same political manipulations (gotta love those gullible christians) and had wars doesn't make them one and the same.  Where's the overt racial and ethnocentric prejudice?  See?  He's more like a reformed Hitler, minus the economic prosperity.  Besides, Bush has far more elements of a robber barron of 100 years ago except instead of having people die over making railroads, they are getting shot for oil profits.  To Bush's credit, there has been far fewer causualties over in Iraq despite it being called a "war" than Carnegie produced in steel mills...  We're just bitter that we're not ripping off the American people ourselves though.  I mean, look at Michael Moore.  He got on the oil gravy train and now how much do you hear from him?  It's like a gasoline lined pacifier!\n\nAs for evil people?  Hey, there are fools supporting both politcial parties in this country.  It's open to all!  As Dinesh D'Sousa (former Regan advisor) said, there are thinking patriots and stupid patriots (aka dogmatic morons).  If it wasn't for DD coming in to talk for our local College Republicans, I might have never known for sure that the public rhetoric didn't really match the real Republican rationales for action.  I suspect that one day a lot of the "religious right" will get their clue on... and God help the republocrats when it happens!  (I'll be cheering on the christians that day, btw)\n\nOooh, wait, there's a real debate issue here?  Thank you fifiday1 for bringing that up!  Remember good old NAFTA?  You know, the one Bush senior's admin wrote up and good old Billybob Clinton signed into law.  Yeah, you know.  The one where your jobs go south along with all our actual trade policy.  Yep.  That one.  I actually studied it and an ungodly amount of the congressional record surrounding it.  It was BIPARTISAN, baby, oh yeah!  AND they knew it would be BAD FOR YOU!  Aren't our republicrats great!  They sent your wages to China, baby!  It's LONG gone.  You're worried about IMMIGRANTS?  Whatever.  We've gone GLOBAL and that means competiting for jobs with people in China, India, and Indonesia.  American Southwest?  That's just the tiny tip of the iceberg.  You'll be fighting that while Bush pushes CAFTA, which will just speed up your (ok, our) losses even more!  Gotta love the guy.  Tells you that he's against abortion with one head while the other head pressures people to ship their jobs to Timbuktu.\n\nPretzeldunce?  I'd bet Andrew Carnegie would call that sort of lining your pocket at other people's expense "nothing short of brilliant!"  It's every man for himself, baby, oh, yeah.  What a wonderful world we live in!\n\n\nPS. The questioner is making fun of a GAFF - another Bush slip of the tongue.  Political opponents try to make him look "stupid" because he has a speech impediment.  Everyone makes little typos and errors from time to time, but there is a crew of pundits waiting like vultures to jump on each and every one in every presidency.  Really, I like Eye_of_Sauron joke questions better...

Uh..he is talking about Bush...not hitler....though he is Hitler reincarnated. Killing and extorted for his own good. His douchebag brother will do just the same. Some fucking democracy....base a government on a 200 year old peice of shit that is outdated and lets fuckers like Bush in the White House in the first place.

you are an idiot. if bush used hitlers strategies, you would have been hunted down and removed already. bush hasn't called for a blitzkreig of sadarcity.bush hasn't killed millions of jews. there are absolutely not similarities between bush and hitler. hitler was charismatic, bush isn't. hitler was german, bush isn't. hitler wanted a white world, bush wants a safe america. i could go on and on, but since you are so filled with hate, you would just never get it. you bubba are more like hitler than bush could ever dream of being.

even though Hitler was not German he wanted to create a perfect race. He wanted to kill all homosexuals, gypsies and jews. His program was to make Germany a powerhouse country and to slowly make his way through Europe and take over. A lot of people actually believe that Hitler was not an evil person, a lot of people think he was a lunatic. I have even heard that the holocaust was over played, and I have heard that Hitler's primary goal was to get rid of all the "trash" and build the perfect world.

IT IS LIKE CHOOSING BETWEEN EVIL AND EVIL..\n\nboth have excelled as criminals and are actually muderers responsible for the death of uncountable innocent people..\n\nbut yes george bush is better because he doesn't believe that other religions are religions of kafirs and that shariyat should be established..  \natleast his jehad has a motive (oil...oil...oil in iraq)\nosama's doesn't make sense..

In many, many ways can the "leadership" style of Dubya be compared to Adolph Hitler. Both are facists. Both are arrogant and live in worlds of altered reality. Both are anti-diversity and both are considered by most of the rest of the world to practice hegemony. Although Hitler committed suicide as his end, I believe Bush, Jr. will live out the rest of his days (daze) at his ranch in Crawford, Texas as a virtual pariah.

Bush follows Hitler and america is following Nazi Germany, despite the fact that large population hates him he has become the prez again, same was Hitler many in Germany hated him, america is going to start WW3 and India and China will come to the rescue of the world

I don't think he's evil. I support Bush and have from the beginning. I hate when people diss the war and all this crap and blame him for their sons & daughters dying when they signed up for the service. They knew there was a chance they would go to war to defend their country. Imagine if Gore was our president, or Kerry. We'd probably all be dead because let's face it, Al Gore thought he invented the internet. Anyway, I love all you people who support Bush!! =) You're great.

Adolph Hitler was by far the worst person in recorded history. Saddam and Osama are tyrants, and George Bush is taking the blame for everything he was advised to do.
