How convenient that this whacko overlooks the davastation that Hitler caused. I really have a hard time dealing with this in a civilized manner. Good thing that I don't live in Ohio!
His rationale that somebody has to play the bad guy is akin to the junior high response of "everybody's doing it." Not everyone is serving the public trust and expected to lead by example. And "father/son bonding"? Are you kidding me? They couldn't have joined Boy Scouts, or played golf? Not buying it for a minute...Thanks, Infidel, for getting this out there.
Ahab: People with a Nazi fetish do tend to dismiss the extreme brutality of the Nazis or talk about it in bloodless, abstract terms. It gets in the way of the fantasy.
MommaPolitico: He's frantically trying every excuse he can think of now that this has come out, hoping something will work. If he really understood the Nazis as the "bad guys", I doubt he would have joined a group which preposterously described them as fighting for "a new and free Europe".
People who dress up as one of the Nazi regime's most infamous units - among the worst in modern history - for fun, with the explicitly expressed view that this unit were "idealists" are pathetic malignant scum unfit for public office of any kind.
Individualist, pro-technology, pro-democracy, anti-religion. I speak only for myself and not for any ideology, movement, or party. It has been my great good fortune to live my whole life free of "spirituality" of any kind. I believe that evidence and reason are the keys to understanding reality; that technology rather than ideology or politics has been the great liberator of humanity; and that in the long run, human intelligence is the most powerful force in the universe.

I shudder to think of the reaction in eastern Europe if the voters go for this guy.

Bizarre. Insensitive. Most importantly, it shows complete disregard for the human suffering that Nazism caused. I second tnlib's comment.

precisely speaking:

Mind you, that also describes the Nazis.
