well, I’m sure Obama would echo a friend of mine after I pushed analogies too far in one of our heated debates: “I resent being compared to Adolph Hitler!”
This little schtick, though, has lost its luster; everybody’s used it for everything…better to find an “original” film clip to use, no?

Perhaps you would be kind enough to share the *Original* Ace of Spades video:

Uncensored, un-bowdlerized – with language torn from the pages of the Daily Kos and Pamela Anderson’s Mensa International application.

Fully credited where credit is due.
f-unnier.

NOW! With Bonus 2008 Electoral College Projection.
Extra BONUS! George Santayana summarizes Senator Obama’s dilemma.

First, the DNC War Room…then the Electoral aftermath

Do German words matter?

A secret meeting in Berlin.
The crowds are gone.
Only trusted party officials remain.
The imminent sense of defeat
rattles even the most battle hardened loyalists.
It all seemed so close,
so easy,
victory in sight.

What happened?

I still want to know how they got Axelrod to play the main part.

[...] HEH. “Gibson did not deliver.” I think the Dallas Cowboys version was funnier, but this one has some good lines. Especially the one about Time. [...]

As my German grandmother used to say, “Too soon old, and too late smart.

I was a community organizer. What did you do with your lives?

Maybe the Dems can change the candidates you tube.

Hitler did write two autobiographies.

The woman in the hall comforting the girl with, “Rachel, she’s a nice Pit Bull.”

Sep 17, 2008 - 5:18 pm 14. Slower Lower:

Ha! Nice twist using Hitler. As often as the leftists have accused those to the right of them as being Nazis, this was brilliant.

Sep 17, 2008 - 5:18 pm 15. Matt, Esq.:

Good stuff. Honestly, the uncensored version was alot funnier but good all around. I have a feeling we’ll have some blowback from the Left “How dare you compare our savior to Hitler.”
