I haven't been too uncomfortable making Bush very early Nazi party comparisons. Remember that the Nazi party started as a extreme patriotic/anti-communist party with support from conservate religious corporate leaders and had years to consolidate power after sliding-in as a minority government. Have you somehow ignored the years of Clinton and left Nazi comparisons? > Also, Moveon.org is pretty inept if they just let any yahoo put a video on > their website without reviewing it first.

I might expect you to have a problem with democracy and free speech and just telling people, Hey, we'll put good ads on TV if you think you can make one. A citizen's movement asking for creative solutions and volunteers. Hard to imagine compared to a conservative political party that pays for everything including the right-wing student newspapers and training on college campuses.
