Title: Democratics are Nazis ...

According to Michael Savage and Bill O'Rielly, that is.


>>>
One week after right-wing radio host Michael Savage compared progressive financier, philanthropist, and political activist George Soros to Hitler's minister of propaganda, Joseph Goebbels, TV and radio host Bill O'Reilly compared both author/documentarian Michael Moore and radio host Al Franken to Goebbels. O'Reilly also likened a group of Hollywood celebrities who attended a recent premier of Moore's new film, Fahrenheit 9/11, to the Nazi faithful. In the process, O'Reilly falsely accused Franken of lying.


From the June 10 broadcast of The Radio Factor with Bill O'Reilly:


O'REILLY: Joseph Goebbels was the Minister of Propaganda for the Nazi regime and whose very famous quote was, "If you tell a lie long enough, it becomes the truth." All right? "If you tell a lie long enough, it becomes the truth."

And that's what Stuart Smalley [O'Reilly regularly refers to Franken as Stuart Smalley, a character Franken created on Saturday Night Live], and Michael Moore and all of these guys do. They just run around.

O'Reilly then provided what he claimed to be an example of Franken's alleged propaganda; yet in the example O'Reilly provided, Franken was telling the truth:

O'REILLY: Stuart Smalley is actually telling people in the media that he's beating Rush Limbaugh in New York City on the radio.

...

As Media Matters for America previously noted, on May 31, The New York Times reported that, among listeners ages 25 to 54, midday ratings for WLIB-AM in New York, which include three hours of Al Franken's radio program, The O'Franken Factor, have been higher than the midday ratings for WABC-AM, which include three hours of The Rush Limbaugh Show.


O'Reilly concluded by smearing Hollywood celebrities who attended the premiere of Fahrenheit 9/11 as equivalent to Goebbels's credulous followers:

Remember when the Right got it's knickers in a twist over one user submitted Move-on.org ad that compared Bush to Hitler? I except we'll see the same sort of reactive anger over these two clowns.

lol. Poor Al Franken. Good thing he can defend himself though. He's good at making O'Reilly look like a dumb bastard.  ;D As for Michael Moore, he's a fat lying slob, but that's another story. Ooh, did anyone hear that Michael Moore claims he had the Iraq prison torture pictures/footage long before it surfaced in the media? I wonder why he didn't feel a moral obligation to release it to the media, to make the torture stop. Oh well. Michael Moore's a fat, sloppy pig, and doesn't give a damn about people's well-being. He's just in it to make a buck. Now, as for Al Franken, I love him. He's my hero.  ;D
