3. Sounds the same to me! 5 of 14
Does that mean I'm not reading enough Hitler, or not reading enough Ann-Thrax Coutler? Gives a whole new meaning to "garbage in, garbage out."

4. 8 Correct- There are a few giveaways
Like, the ones that mention America. I've read most of Mein Kampf (fascinating piece of political propaganda), and I don't think Hitler mentions the Great Capitalist Experiment much. But I found several quotes hard to distinguish. What else would one expect?

Everyone should read some of Mein Kampf, by the way. If only to see the Beast in his unvarnished form, and recognize his progeny in the modern world.

6. It would be so much easier on film
Then you'd only have to remember......Hitler is the one with the mustache, Coulter is the one with the Adam's apple.

A few were sort of hard. Gee, that is a disgusting thing to say about a person, isn't it?

12. Somebidy needs to quickyly an Anne Miller like book about
Anne Coulter as Miller wrote about Hitler's upbringing. Who and what produced this vile, hateful person.

I got 10 of 14 correct! That I confused some of her trash as that of Hitler is no surprise.

Excellent Quiz - thanks to those who produced it.

15. I got 11 of 14 -- would have had 12, but overthought myself and
changed one away from the initial, correct answer.

Do I know my fascists or what?

16. It's BS
Edited on Sat Jun-24-06 07:25 AM by Kellanved
The author has replaced the racist anti-semitic references in the cherry-picked Hitler pieces with references to liberalism AND he has replaced all political referenced with American political references. That makes the whole thing invalid on multiple levels.
a) You can't show similarities with altered quotes
b) it conveniently removes the rampant anti-semitism from the Hitler pieces - any residual comparability voids at this point
c) it also hides the political enemies of Hitler - Communists, Social Democrats and liberal Democrats by mashing together racial and political victims to "liberal"

As usual, the replace X with "liberal" game is insulting to all victims, their families and the present. Moreover, the comparison is completely invalid, because you won't find many Hitler quotes where he attacks political enemies without using racist slurs. You can't equate political antipathy and racism, it just doesn't work that way.

17. I'm leary
of giving information to a site that displays a map like that. Just an observation.
