Please read your history. SteveZ was not dragging out a Hitler analogy as you want to think, he names the Hitler-Jugend which was the Hitler youth movement that followed their new leader blindly without thought to his end state or agenda.

Many people on both sides are saying they "do not know this man" and what he stands for. Yet as the Hitler-Jugend followed him, they to are following Obama. Actually a good historical analogy. Their are several others but many of the others followed their leadership out of fear. In the 1930's Germany, they followed because this leader told them what they wanted to hear and promised fixing all the problems created by prior leadership during and after WWI.

It's more an analogy of the masses following any leader with blind faith.
