You, Saundra, Garrett and Tom should all check with the dictionary. The Nazis were on the left by definition, meaning they were for governnment control. White Suprimist in the US are a different matter. They may not even have a political ideology. Some may want freedom for themselves, but not for others. This does not place them on the right, who wants freedom for everyone. They basically are kooks and cannot be categorized as being left or right. It is convenient for the left to place them on the right. this makes it easier for them to demonise the right and marginalize them by association. Saul Aulinsky again. Social Darwinism aside, evolution is a matter science and should have noting to do with political or religious ideology.

> Saundra is right, and Roger is wrong.  I only hope that in continuing, however absurdly, to insist that the Nazis were "on the left," he's not mistakenly conflating the Third Reich's "social Darwinism" and "socialism" with, say, Darwin-as-anti-Biblical-creationist and "socialism" as any attempt to establish a genuine social safety net for the poor, however limited.  Words and labels are often dead wrong when applied out of context -- especially the ones that are today incendiary.

But I've seen some conservatives make the mistake of borrowing words from the Nazis' own 25-point political ideology and latching on to the ones that sound "liberal."  I'd like to think that Roger isn't one of them, but I'm losing hope.

You can't post definitions (sans quotation marks, BTW) and then expect us to accept your definition of the definitions  This kind of flatly irresponsible statement reminds me of your Bushian/Cheneyian/Rovian claim that waterboarding isn't torture.  <snort>
