Hitler was NOT a Christian. We went through this on page one of this thread!
That is what YOU are doing!

See. Mo, isn't that better? You actually addressed the post specifically.
I'm sorry, you missed the POINT:
Hitler was indeed not a Christian. I used sarcasm against Serf.....see, Hitler SAID he was a Christian and he wasn't. Hitler also headed a party with the word socialism in it, but he wasn't a socialist either. Get it?
The 'LOUD' reference was to the simple, bold capital letter response I got from Serf. See?
Thanks for playing. And since you didn't respond to the rest of the post, thanks for your agreement on those.

"Churchill was conservative, but inconsequential (the US was big dog on the Western front)…and I will refer to his unceremonious dumping from office after the war."
To say Britain was inconsequential is to be ignorant in the extreme about military history. It also bears pointing out that Britain was the only one of the three main allies to declare war on Germany prior to being attacked and for two years fought Germany alone. You may refer to his losing the subsequent election if you wish, but what it has to do with anything is beyond me.
"What does the Stalin/Hitler non-aggression pact have to do with this?"
You implied that the war against Germany was a left-wing effort. I was pointing out that, apart from conservative Britain's role, the USSR only joined in due to operation Barbarossa and were happy to deal with Hitler prior to that. BTW, it's the Molotov/Ribbentrop pact, not hitler/Stalin.
"Hitler didn’t care for anything but war, his entire personality and mindset was right wing in that respect"
Crap. The USSR was as militarily agressive as any right wing nation.
"He ultimately – in war time - was a FACSIST (“centralized, autocratic government”), Fascists have been know to be right wing"
No, they haven't. Mussolini was a socialist. So was Mosely.
"A man who was devoted to the Kaiser (a bit right wing), was not on the right? A man who believed the military was the end-all of society (and it was, oh boy) was not on the right? A man who wasted the German people with no regard for their well-being was on the left?"
If he was so devoted to the Kaiser, why did he not restore him? Or allow him home from exile? why did he send the SS to keep the Kaiser under house arrest after the invasion of Holland? The largest army of the twentieth century was the Red army. Stalin, Mao and Pol Pot all did a pretty good job of wasting their people.

The 'LOUD' reference was to the simple, bold capital letter response I got from Serf. See? You know, I was at work and my lunch break was at an end, so I just copied and pasted the title at the top of the page so I could get back to work rather than type the bloody thing out. I can't blame USA50 for misinterpreting my intentions since he couldn't see the rushed look I had as I posted the link. Of course, it's all moot since the only response to the world's leading expert in political psycology was the childish, "No it's not!" You know, sometimes people don't respond to some comments because they're not worth responding to.
