Ralf,
süßer, You live in a democracy. I live in Bayern.

But, yes, that is the thing with democracies...how did Winston Churchill put it? "The worst form of government...except for all the rest?"
I just hope the US constitution survives this administration. My dad remembers Germany in the 1930's very well and he says the difference is now only one of degree.
And yes, you are right - Bush #43 at his worst is not comparable to Hitler. Hitler murdered over six million Jews, millions of Catholics and homosexuals; gave Stalin the coverage he needed to murder 30 million Russian peasants...
But von Rippentrop does come to mind at times, I swear.
