Just when you think the loony left can't get any more deranged and hateful toward George W. Bush, someone comes along and further lowers the bar.
Former Washington Post sportswriter, "Seinfeld" writer and executive co-producer Peter Mehlman did just that today in a Huffington Post article (h/t Ace) which said that President Bush is actually worse than Hitler because at least the German dictator meant well when he was trying to exterminate Jewish people.
Yahoo has a copy which I reproduce here in full just in case someone yanks it from both sites. As is often the case with liberals, Mehlman is incapable of expressing himself without using profanity:
I don't think it's too far to say that this type of thinking is what gets people lead into the gas chambers. It is nothing less than a systematic attempt to dehumanize anyone who dares to disagree with a world view which for all its rhetoric of tolerance and inclusiveness has components which jump for joy if a prominent Republican politician were decapitated on live television. This schmuck would probably hold the knife.Boy, America has had a lot of shitty presidents. Just take a stroll down repressed memory land and look at that police line-up from November 22, 1963 through January 1992. Ford may come out looking the best of the bunch and he was widely acknowledged to be unable to walk and chew gum. (Wisely, his advisors encouraged him to sit while chewing).
And really, Clinton could have been a lot better too.
So now we're six and a half years into Bush and everyone from Helen Thomas on down is declaring him the worst president ever. What no one is saying is the one overarching reason he's the worst: the Bush administration is the first that doesn't even mean well.
With the possible exception of immigration reform -- and who knows what grotesque financial incentive underlies that -- try to pinpoint even one policy motivated by the desire to lessen human suffering, to improve the life of citizens. Nothing. There is nothing.
As much as Democrats loathed Nixon, there was no denying he had some noble goals. He tried for universal health care and... I'm pretty sure there were other things.
As much as Republicans loathed Clinton, they had to know he cared about people. Amazing how his "I feel your pain" quality became such a disdainful joke. That sounds like a good quality in a president.
Even with the low poll numbers, liberals still feel stymied in conveying just how bad this administration is. It's been the ultimate frustration to consider the people who don't see Bush's malevolence: In 2004, rural America cited national security as their number one reason for voting for Bush. But people in the major cities, where there's actually a chance of being victimized by terrorism, people voted against Bush. Frustrating. In the cities, where most people are utterly at two with nature, people cited Bush's raping of the environment as a major reason to vote against him. In rural America, where people fish and hunt and generally do things outside, they voted for Bush. Sooooo frustrating. On Sutton Place and in Harvard-Westlake, where kids go to college after high school, they vote against Bush. In rural America, from where the majority of tragically killed kids in Iraq soldiers come, they vote for Bush.
You could argue that even the world's worst fascist dictators at least meant well. They honestly thought were doing good things for their countries by suppressing blacks/eliminating Jews/eradicating free enterprise/repressing individual thought/killing off rivals/invading neighbors, etc. Only the Saudi royal family is driven by the same motives as Bush, but they were already entrenched. Bush set a new precedent. He came into office with the attitude of "I'm so tired of the public good. What about my good? What about my rich friends' good?"
How can anyone not see it? It's not that their policies have been misguided or haven't played out right. They. Don't. Even. Mean. Well.

I'm not a Bush fan, I'm not a fan of this administration, but saying Bush "doesn't even mean well" is pretty far-fetched, fella. Even if you think one of Bush's priorities is to help his buddies get rich, even if you don't think he's all that swell on domestic policy, I think the guy _wants_ to do right by America.

June 25, 2007 - 16:27 ET by JDWBased on plentiful evidence, he had reason to know that his ongoing policy regarding Iraq was already malfunctioning badly. Just last week we learned of a memorandum written in March of that year, just two months after his inauguration, to secretary of state James Baker, as Baker prepared to meet with a senior Iraqi official in which the author of the memorandum noted that Iraq continued to cooperate with terrorists, that it was meddling in Lebanon, that it was working hard at chemical and biological weapons and new missiles. - algore... he meant well also.

Hitler well intentioned??? It was the thought that counts, huh? Even if it was racist and genocidal????? I'm sorry, but that has to cross the line into hate speech. Anyone giving Hitler kudos for being genocidal because he wanted race purity through Eugenics is hate monger no different than a Klan member. Just because they didn't use the N word or the J word directly doesn't give this a pass at hate speech, unmistakingly implying something is as good as saying it. Disgusting, absolutely, disgusting.

June 25, 2007 - 17:51 ET by ThisnThatHere's an account from a sworn affidavit by Herman Graebe, manager and engineer of a branch office of a German construction firm, of his observations on October 5, 1942, in action at the execution pits a Dubno in the Ukraine, as the town's 5000 \Jews were liquidated:
"....I looked into the pit and saw that the bodies were twitching or the heads lying already motionless on top of the bodies that lay beneath them. Blood was running from their necks. The next batch was approaching already. They went down into the pit, lined theselves up against the previous victims, and were shot..."
Anybody who casually throws out the phrase "worse than Hitler", IMO, should get down on his knees and give thanks that the United States, then and now, includes leaders and soldiers with the history, good sense of duty, and conviction that has made this country the best in the world, and that no one -- and I mean no one in our Legislative, Judicial, or Executive branches of Government -- deserves to be compared to this most vicious and demented dictator the world has ever seen.

You ask some legitimate questions. We all love our aged and dear aunts.
But Helen Thomas is roundly hated around here because she is a liberal of the worst sort. She has a nasty and ugly attitude about everything in the Bush administration....and generally about Republicans and conservatives.
If the President (or his lovely wife) were to say the weather is fine...Helen Thomas would say "But Mr. President...it's raining in Sri Lanka and why haven't you rescued the refugees in Darfur?"
Does that make sense?
We despise Helen Thomas because she's been a vicious mouthpiece for the liberal leftist press for a thousand years.

June 25, 2007 - 22:15 ET by JABBack at ya BT. The dead give away for me was the "fact" he/she could recall the 60's and 70's but not rember Helen?! Give me a break, even a brain dead acid dropper would remember a century's old relick of said era.
I think Blonde was just in a naive mood tonight, she's quicker than that on your average day.

June 28, 2007 - 16:28 ET by 4arrowSorry Miss Marple, but I came to be interested in American politics late in life. During the 50's through 90's I was rather occupied with other things let alone knowing a member of the Washington press corps.

June 25, 2007 - 22:12 ET by BlondeHey JAB,
Nice to see you again, here, friend.
I remember 4arrow as a rather friendly poster, so until I've been proved wrong, I'll be friendly.
What can I say? That's just me.

June 26, 2007 - 06:20 ET by ArchConservativeExcept for the violence the demonstrators unleashed like burning down buildings, blowing up public establishments, spitting on soldiers and calling them baby killers. Yeah, pretty naive.

Why do liberals joke about dead Jews
June 26, 2007 - 00:11 ET by Lame CherryThe question is rhetorical, but how any one can joke about Hitler and the suffering of Jews or the thousands of others who included Gypsies to inform Mehlman of some historical fact is beyond the pale of being a human.
It is absolutely disgusting to have Huffington post such remarks which amount to the equal of Mehlman making fun of pedophilia.
Honestly, I would really like this coward Mehlman to go to Iraq and walk the mass graves with Kurds, walk the mass graves with Shia and talk to the real artists in Afghanistan who actually risked their lives to save their nation's artwork.
Butchered people are not funny and while Seinfeld got away with horrid subjects, because the show was a liberal showcase Mehlman has not yet figured out there is a real world and a tv world.......just like Mehlman has no figured out that tripping handicapped people is not funny nor is making fun of women who have been raped.
Making fun of dead Jews by saying Hitler meant well. There is no remedy for someone so soul dead to put that into a blog.

It is insane.Doesnt surprise
June 26, 2007 - 01:26 ET by well99It is insane.Doesnt surprise me about Huff.I go to different blogs and I was checking theirs out.It was just after 181 Iraqis cilvilians were killed on one day by sucide bombers during the surge.The posters at least a large amount were salavating over those folks dying.They were just so happy to bash Bush.
This guy has the same mentality.To put some kind of spin on what Hitler did is just plain sick.There is no sane excuse for that.This guy needs to be exposed even if it is to email it to newspapers,tv stations.
Vlad The Impaler meant well t
June 26, 2007 - 10:55 ET by drillanwrVlad The Impaler meant well too ...
Still Baffled
June 26, 2007 - 12:34 ET by Some GuyI just still don't understand where people constantly get the idea that everything Bush does is based on greed. I mean ... do they really think everything he does (goes to war, defends our borders, defends our way of life) is just so he can make a buck? Wow ... good thing that everyone with money is just out for themselves ... good thing the folks running for the Dems next time round are all very very poor with no rich friends ...
Sometimes I just want to move to Outer Mongolia ... they have some cool Camels.
At least they meant well???
June 26, 2007 - 15:12 ET by jerseydevelI've grown so very tired of the others (worst dictators that meant so well). Why, they are so pass'ee. Sir Mehlman. I would like to follow you my (new) Lord and Master. I understand you're on the next train leaving the station.
All aboard!!! Next stop...
