About the only think Hitler and Stalin had in common was their penchant for democide and genocide. And the desire to carve up Poland (among other intermediary countries between the two powers).

You and I both know that. Anyone with even a rudimentary grasp of history knows that. The teabaggers and nutjobs who hold up signs equating whatever POTUS is in office to Hitler/Stalin/Lenin/etc.? They don’t know that because they have no sense of history, no concept of the very real political differences between those leaders, and are just looking for the soundbite.
