Cole Claims a Vote Against Bush Is a Vote For Hitler

Republican Congressman Tom Cole claims a vote against the re-election of President Bush is like supporting Adolph Hitler during World War Two. It's what he said recently before a meeting of Canadian County Republicans.

U-S Representative Tom Cole might have stirred up Democrats by saying a vote against the re-election of President Bush is like supporting Adolph Hitler during World War Two. Or supporting Osama bin Laden now. "If George Bush loses the election, Osama bin Laden wins the election," Cole is quoted in this week's edition of the Yukon Review which covered the recent meeting of the Canadinan County Republicans where Cole was a speaker. The newspaper says Cole claims if Bush loses his re-election bid, the enemies of the U-S will interpret it as a victory for bin Laden. No comment so far from Oklahoma Democratic party leaders to see if they think Cole is comparing John Kerry to Adolph Hitler or Osama bin Laden. In the Yukon Review article, Cole is quoted as asking what Hitler might have thought had Franklin Roosevelt not been re-elected in 1944. (JB)

2. So does this mean all Republicans are traitors
After all, Republicans did actually vote against FDR for Tom Dewey back in 1944....

4. AND against Johnson in 1964 (Vietnam War)
The USA was already engaged in combat at the time, was it not?

3. I just sent a link to Drudge
His first bias is toward the outrageous, so he just might link it.

Call his office at (202) 225-6165 and demand his resignation.

8. that's a little shrill...
but I like it... I live in OK CD 4 and I called him... I didn't demand his resignation but I did tell them that I was a constituent and that I didn't expect to agree with him on the issues but that I do expect him to maintain a professional demeanor. It's not likely that either will change much but at least it will keep his office busy answering the phones instead of doing more damage to the country.

He's a longtime Repug attack dog and political operative... sorry today's horse shit had to come out of my CD. :mad:

12. Turd Blossom Rove was the first to compare Bush to Hitler.
Of course, Rove did it in an admiring and approving way. I always point this out to any Reich wingers who mention the MoveOn ad.

11. I'd think it the other way around.
It's the Bush family that made money while working at a Bank that traded with the WWII enemy.

Amazing, is how W has the same chin, nose, forehead, ears and mouth as that picture of Hitler.

13. Dear Congressman Cole: the Shrub is not FDR
And his "explanation" on CNN

http://www.cnn.com/TRANSCRIPTS/0403/04/ip.00.html

REP. TOM COLE (R), OKLAHOMA: I'm not saying a thing at all about John Kerry, a person, frankly, whom I respect, but disagree with quite profoundly.

What I am saying is that at a time of war, if our commander in chief is defeated in election, our adversaries will regard that as a triumph. And I think without question, George Bush, who's led decisively, ably and, frankly, quite aggressively during this confrontation with terror, is somebody that Osama bin Laden does not want to see reelected.
