Hilarious video. Absolutely brilliant. It's wrong in all the right ways.
I actually don't have a problem with the word "faggot" when used in this historical context. Cutting it here would be like cutting the N word from To Kill A Mockingbird. What does unsettle me is that the "historical context" of the word "faggot" extends to about a year ago. It is every bit as unsettling to gay people as the N word is to black people and, yet, still being used in our society.

These tactics will defiantly DESTROY the Democratic Party!
Thinking About November By PAUL KRUGMAN May 9, 2008
The fight for the Democratic nomination seems to be winding down. It’s not completely over, but the odds now overwhelmingly favor Barack Obama.
Assuming that Mr. Obama is the nominee, he’ll lead a party that, judging by the usual indicators, should be poised for an easy victory — perhaps even a landslide.
Yet Democrats are worried. Are those worries justified?
Before I try to answer that question, let’s talk about those indicators.
Political scientists, by and large, believe that what happens on the campaign trail, while it gives talking heads something to talk about, is more or less irrelevant to what happens on Election Day. Instead, they place their faith in statistical analyses that identify three main determinants of presidential voting.
First, votes are affected by the state of the economy — mainly economic performance in the year or so preceding the election.
Second, the approval rating of the current president strongly affects his party’s ability to hold power.
Third, the electorate seems to suffer from an eight-year itch: parties rarely manage to hold the White House for more than two terms in a row.
This year, all of these factors strongly favor the Democrats. Indeed, the Democratic Party hasn’t enjoyed this favorable a political environment since 1964. Robert Erikson, a political scientist at Columbia, tells me: “It would be difficult to find any serious indicator that does not point to a Democratic victory in 2008.”
What about polls that still seem to give John McCain a good chance of winning? Pay no attention, say the experts: general election polls this early tell you almost nothing about what will happen in November. Remember 1992: as late as June, Gallup put Ross Perot in first place, Bill Clinton in third.
There’s just one thing that should give Democrats pause — but it’s a big one: the fight for the nomination has divided the party along class and race lines in a way that I believe is unprecedented, at least in modern times.
Ironically, much of Mr. Obama’s initial appeal was the hope that he could transcend these divisions. At first, voting patterns seemed consistent with this hope. In February, for example, he received the support of half of Virginia’s white voters as well as that of a huge majority of African-Americans.
But this week, Mr. Obama, while continuing to win huge African-American majorities, lost North Carolina whites by 23 points, Indiana whites by 22 points. Mr. Obama’s white support continues to be concentrated among the highly educated; there was little in Tuesday’s results to suggest that his problems with working-class whites have significantly diminished.
Discussions of how and why Mr. Obama’s support narrowed over time have a Rashomon-like quality: different observers see very different truths. But at this point it doesn’t matter whose fault it was. What does matter is that Mr. Obama appears to have won the nomination with a deep but narrow base consisting of African-Americans and highly educated whites. And now he needs to bring Democrats who opposed him back into the fold.
It’s possible that this will happen automatically — that bad feelings from the nomination fight will fade away of their own accord. In recent decades, Democrats have had little trouble unifying after hard-fought primary campaigns.
But this time the division seems to go deeper than ordinary political rivalry. The closest parallel I can think of is the bitter intraparty struggles of the 1920s, which pitted urban, often Catholic Democrats against Protestant farmers.
So what can be done to heal the party’s current divisions?
More tirades from Obama supporters against Mrs. Clinton are not the answer — they will only further alienate her grass-roots supporters, many of whom feel that she received a raw deal.
Nor is it helpful to insult the groups that supported Mrs. Clinton, either by suggesting that racism was their only motivation or by minimizing their importance.
After the Pennsylvania primary, David Axelrod, Mr. Obama’s campaign manager, airily dismissed concerns about working-class whites, saying that they have “gone to the Republican nominee for many elections.” On Tuesday night, Donna Brazile, the Democratic strategist, declared that “we don’t have to just rely on white blue-collar voters and Hispanics.” That sort of thing has to stop.
One thing the Democrats definitely need to do is give delegates from Florida and Michigan — representatives of citizens who voted in good faith, and whose support the party may well need this November — seats at the convention.
And to the extent that campaigning matters, Mr. Obama should center his campaign on economic issues that matter to working-class families, whatever their race.
The point is that Mr. Obama has an extraordinary opportunity in this year’s election. He should do everything possible to avoid squandering it.

Why is Bill still saying-
Many pundits have said Hillary can’t win, but voters should not be discouraged from going to the polls to cast a vote, Clinton said.
“Hillary can still win this,” he said. “She’ll win because of people like you.”
How can Hillary still win this race, because Bill and Hill say so, this race is over, and the in connection to the video the Nazis had lost at that point and look at how much damage they did, remember it ended badly.

Is it hilarious? Absolutely. ;-P
This is the fun of youtube and blogs and the internet etc. we don't have to take things _so_ seriously.
"This is all your faults, not mine." and "The voters have stolen my nomination."
As for "faggots" and "marshmellow dykes" and "the sissies at MoveOn.com, "I've heard worse in real life and not from people who were speaking satirically. It's rough world we live in and Hillary has been as rough as any. Of course, AmBlog isn't the free-for-all it used to be, so perhaps it's best to take it down and let it all go.
Many pundits have said Hillary can’t win, but voters should not be discouraged from going to the polls to cast a vote, Clinton said.
“Hillary can still win this,” he said. “She’ll win because of people like you.”

How can Hillary still win this race, because Bill and Hill say so, this race is over,
and the in connection to the video the Nazis had lost at that point and look at how much damage they did, remember it ended badly.
I didn't take offense to the C-word eyes comment, I was laughing to hard !!

Oh - and The original video was funny with Hitler was just Hitler, and as a bonus, I don't believe he uttered any homophobic slurs.
I even thought about how I would feel about it if it was made by a wingnut (impossible since they are without senses of humor) and realized I would still think it was funny.
Get a sense of humor, douche bag.
What is wrong with you people 'take it down, I'm so offended'
Call the waaaaaambulance, jeez!!
Shame on you John for taking it down!
This is a free country!
I saw this in a diary on KOS, its still there even though the hysterics were screaming to pull it down.
Please repost it with a warning like " over-sensitive might be offended, do not click"
It's your site you get to do what you want!
Don't succumb to the pressure!
I have been very tough on Clinton at Daily Kos, but this Hitler parody that used gay offensive words was way over the top for a person like you to even encourage the viewing of.
Two ways to really give someone the ultimate insult: Call them Hitler or call a gay person a faggot (or use that word at all).
Big deal ..its satire and making fun of Hitler is good because it humanizes him so one can not just dismiss him as an eveil abberation ..Jews made fun of him even in the concentration camps ...read Laughter in Hell http://www.amazon.com/Laughter-Hell-Humor-Durin...
