I find it interesting how many people seem to not think at all before blurting something out like that. In the past few months the Daily Show has taken several shots at politicians who use the terms Nazi and Hitler when crying out against another. They showed how idiotic it is use such harsh terms and how it belittles what the actual victims of such tragedies went through -- yes, Delay or others may make stupid choices or assessments, but are they really comparable to Hitler? While I have not followed it intensely, I think the junior Senator from New York's comments fall along the same lines in saying the admin. is a plantation. Worse, though, I think it is an attempt to demean the accomplishments of a well-educated woman who has worked hard to get where she is and has been.

Seriously people, if you're important enough to have others listen to you, think before you speak. For the rest of us, we can just babble at will and it doesn't matter.

I love the daily show. I think I might like the Colbert Report more, though.

And folks, I've seen a Hitler. This, my friends, is no Hitler.
