“I will confess I won’t fight if anyone wants to draw a comparison between what you’ve done with our domestic policies of our day to what Neville Chamberlain did with the domestic policies of his,” says Olbermann. The reference is to Neville Chamberlain who, as Prime Minister of Great Britain, infamously cut a deal with Hitler (that Hitler subsequently broke to the surprise of nobody except Chamberlain) and proclaimed “peace in our time.”

Because, in Oblermann’s world, Republicans are Nazis and the Bush tax cuts are like Hitler’s invasion of Czechoslovakia.

For crying out loud they’re tax cuts, and the “tax cuts for the rich” impact the nation’s business owners and investors.
