Well, I didn't know what to write specifically on the board, but I did e-mail the writer of the article and called him a Nazi, so I guess I wasn't completely speechless....

A nazi? How original! I'd say these guys are nazis. Kerry staffers tear a sign out of a woman's hand. Not long after, Porter made her way to an area where Kerry was shaking hands with a large group of people. She eventually found herself exactly where she hoped she would be -- a few feet away from the man some hope will be the next president. She held up her sign. "Then it happened," Porter explains. "He reached up to shake a hand in the back and his eyes went up to my sign. He read it and then he looked into the crowd to see who was holding it -- and he looked me directly in the eyes." "I hope he saw my pain. I was not angry, just pleading with him to understand. You could see the shock and surprise on his face," Porter said. But within seconds, a Kerry campaign staff member approached Porter and grabbed her sign. "You can't have that sign here," the Kerry staffer said. www.lifenews.com/nat378.html

Well MO, calling a political position a "treatable illness" is not just Nazi-esque, it is in fact exactly what Hitler did. I don't think there was anything wrong with calling the guy a Nazi. What will he say next? That being Jewish is a treatable illness?

A "political position" doesn't describe a race or nationality, so, no, this doesn't work. I could buy the Nazi comparison if the author had discussed gassing anyone that didn't agree with him, but obviously this is not the case. You just need to look at it in the context that it was written,(as he is only making some analogies of his own).
To me, it's no worse than the silly and somewhat embarassing attempts to defend ridiculous comments made by an idiot like Ted Kennedy.

I found this article by someone who apparently saw first hand, the liberal indoctrination that occurs on our campuses across the nation. It was written by someone who also apparently knows a little bit about freedom, and understands why liberalism is a disease. I have a right to call it what it is, just as much as you have a right to disagree. www.frontpagemag.com/Articles/ReadArticle.asp?ID=12289
