McCain blames Rise of Hitler on Ron Paul

Not Invading and Occupying other Countries Branded 'Isolationism'

By Juan Cole

11/29/07 "ICH" --- -- In a new low of despicable looniness, at the Republican debate in St. Petersburg, John McCain equated those Americans who want to stop militarily occupying Iraq with Hitler-enablers. He actually said that, saying that it was 'isolationism' of a sort that allowed Hitler to come to power.

It gives a person a certain amount of faith in one's fellow Americans that McCain was booed by the Republican crowd for this piece of calumny. Comparisons to Hitler should be automatic grounds for a candidate to be disqualified from being president.

But then McCain is the same person who joked about bombing Iran. He thinks that killing all those children from the air would be funny?

PS: I despise Ron Paul.I wouldn't vote for him to be dog catcher, or dog butt wiper. Just sayin'.

Could we just bring the troops home now? It's all been a horrible mistake. And we all know who's fault it is.

1. I'm not a big Ron Paul fan...

but the Hitler analogy was just plain B.S.

2. Hitler-enablers? That would only apply to those alive during WWII

Such as Senator Preston Bush.
