Really, folks, Republicans aren’t Nazis, and they aren’t fascists, either.

Apparently the Republican headquarters down in North Carolina that was firebombed by Democrat terrorists (but I repeat myself) had a swastika painted on it along with the words “NAZI REPUBLICANS LEAVE TOWN OR ELSE”.  Normally I wouldn’t bother to link to Bill O’Reilly but it was in a video of his that I saw on Fecesbook.

Leaving aside the question of who is the more Nazi-esque, the alleged Nazi or the Nazi trying to run him out of town, the appellation “Nazi Republican” is, I fear, a contradiction in terms.  For the Nazis were not men of the right; they were men of the left, as is clearly indicated by the name of their part, Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei, or in good clean American, National SOCIALIST German Workers Party.

The left seems to need to have this concept beaten into their heads on a regular basis, along with the correct political alignment of the term fascist, which is also a term for men of the left.  Mussolini, for instance, the Great Fascist Il Duce of wartime Italy, was a man of the left.  Indeed, he got most of his ideas from another great fascist wartime leader and man of the left — President Woodrow Wilson.

So please, Democrats, stop calling Republicans nazis and fascists.  If you’re going to use those old nasty terms, do so when looking at yourself in the mirror.  Or at your presidential and vice-presidential candidates.
