Maybe he was being ironic?

A friend of mine posted this on Facebook on Tuesday after the election: "Remember the Nazi's were the extreme liberal (lefts)." (See Godwin's law)

Really? Health care reform merits comparison to genocide?

Here are some characteristics of the Nazis:

• Xenophobic
• Homophobic
• Militaristic
• Intolerant
  
• Practiced unilateral foreign policy
• Blamed economic problems on immigrants
• Abandoned liberty for security
• Invaded countries with unfortunate results
• Sanctioned torture
• Endorsed capital punishment
• Accused opponents of being unpatriotic
  

Sound like a current American political party?
