PRAVDA COMPARES OBAMA TO HITLER

In addition to having the strong opinion that Obama never should have received the Nobel Peace Prize, the Pravda columnist correctly points out that while Josef Stalin and Benito Mussolini didn't win the prize, both were nominated. How anyone can take the prize seriously, regardless, is beyond me.

Almost as laughable is the fact that one of the actual three prizes Obama will receive includes a prize for his handling of economics.

Obama is scheduled to receive three Nobel Prizes, two for Peace and one for Economics. His second prize will be in Economics, while third in Peace. After receiving his prizes, Obama will be the only man in human history to receive three unshared Nobel Prizes.

As for the Hitler comparisons, some are irrefutable, others intriguing, and a couple merely coincidental reaches. Nonetheless, check out what PRAVDA has to say about them:

Both Obama and Hitler share similar ancestries: Obama German, Hitler Austrian.

Both leaders had been surrounded by many controversies concerning birth certificate, citizenship and religion.

Both had the father figure issues. Obama’s parents separated when he was two years old and they divorced in 1964. His father returned to Kenya and saw him only once more before dying in an automobile accident in 1982. Hitler had a troubled relationship with his tradition-minded authoritarian father, who frequently beat him.

During their teenage years both leaders had problems with alcohol. Obama called the alcohol phase "greatest moral failure", Hitler called it “most humiliated experience in life”.

Both are unloved by the Jewish, for Hitler is well known why, for Obama, well, his victory in Presidential elections was not received with welcome in Israel.

Time magazine named Obama person of the year in 2008, Hitler in 1938.

Both had bestseller books: Obama had “Dreams of my Father” (memoir) and “the Audacity of Hope” (political convictions), Hitler had “Mein Kampf (My Struggle) in Volumes 1 and 2. It combines elements of autobiography with an exposition of Hitler's political ideology.

Obama was influenced by Martin Luther King, Hitler by Martin Luther.

Both Obama and Hitler came to power during the recession-depression; Obama in 2009, Hitler in 1933.

Both are personality cult leaders, portrayed as saviors of political and economical depression; Obama as an American savior, Hitler as German. A cult of personality arises when a country's leader uses mass media to create an idealized and heroic public image, often through unquestioning flattery and praise.

Both are/were very gifted orators, having ability to attract great interest in their speeches. Both have/had hand gestures when giving a speech.

Both leaders had initiated health reforms, environmentalism and animal protection rights, among others.

As for the enviornmentalism and animal protection rights, think Al Gore, Climate Czar Carol Browner, and Cass Sunstein, regulatory czar who wants animals to have attorneys.

One additional element to all of this may be Obama's affinity for people who revere Mao Tse Tung (or at least show appreciation for the 20th century's greatest mass murderer). First, we had White House Communications Director ANITA DUNN, then it was Manufacturing czar, RON BLOOM, and then let's not forget that Mr. Obama shared a business address with MIKE KLONSKY in the 1990's (along with Bill Ayers).
