Most people don't know that the Alien and Sedition Act passed in WWII was because of what the punk's grandfather was doing in laundering money for the Third Reich. After the war was over an no one was there to collect the money the punks grandfather was Johnny on the spot.

IMO it's water under the bridge so to speak, but if the brush clearer in charge wants to compare current politicians to Nazi appeasers then he is fair game as well
When it comes to being critical of the Bush administration it wasn't the left that first called for the impeachment of George W. Bush. It wasn't the left that first compared the Bush administration to the Nazi regime. It was Libertarian Dr. Paul Craig Roberts, Assistant Secretary of the US Treasury in the Reagan administration and former associate editor of the Wall Street Journal. His response to Bush's Knesset speech was as shrill as anything from the left.
On May 15, the White House Moron, in a war-planning visit to Israel, justified the naked aggression he and Olmert are planning against Iran as the only alternative to "the false comfort of appeasement, which has been repeatedly discredited by history."
But the White House Moron has the roles reversed. It is not Iran that is threatening war. It is Bush. It is not Bush who is appeasing. It is Iran.
Iran has not responded in kind to any of Bush’s warlike moves and provocations. Iran has not sunk a single one of our sitting-duck ships and has not given the Iraqi insurgents any weapons that would easily turn the tide of war against the US.
It is Bush, not Iran, who sounds like Adolf Hitler blustering and threatening. It is Bush’s American Brownshirts, the neocons, who express the view: "what’s the good of nuclear weapons if you can’t use them."
It is the US that is funding assassination teams inside Iran and using taxpayer dollars to fund dissident and violent organizations opposed to the Iranian government. Iran is doing no such thing here.
It is members of the Bush Regime and US generals who continue to lie through their teeth about Iranian support for insurgents, for which they can supply no evidence, and about Iranian nuclear weapons programs, for which the IAEA inspectors can find no sign.
It is the US print and TV media that serves the Bush Regime as propaganda ministry for its lies of aggression.
All the war crimes that are being planned are being planned by Bush and Olmert.
What would George Orwell make of the Bush Regime’s position that anything less than a direct act of naked aggression is appeasement?
This is why many if not most of the Libertarians will not vote for Bush clone, John McCain. Dr Roberts used to be the darling of the right wing talk shows until about six years ago when he started speaking out against the Bush/Cheney/neocon cabal.
