I am not an historian, so I don't have any constructive critique to make on this essay. Nonetheless, this inflamatory comparisons seem somewhat exaggerated. The U.S. might be in a bad shape at the moment, but it's far from the catastrophe that Germany experienced after WW1.
- Flemlord 18y agoI agree that the scale is off, but I think the comparison to the GOP changing tactics, rather than revamping their platform is spot-on. I was hopeful that a true conservative, Ron Paul-style movement would take root at the core of the party, but they seem to be going in the opposite direction. They're becoming more polarized and exclusionary, focusing on undermining Obama, rather than building a true vision for the future.
- russell 18y agoThe Republicans are total bone-heads, without a clue, but they aren't becoming Nazis. Whether they can dump Limbaugh, Palin, Gingrich, and other nut cases remains to be seen. It's entirely possible that the "loyal opposition" comes out of the left.
