A woman who is fighting for a better Texas is now Hitler. This is straight out of the Glenn Beck paranoia and fear handbook. Republicans constantly make this claim based on their myth that Adolph Hitler was pro-abortion. This is a myth because as Gloria Steinem wrote in 1980, Hitler himself, and the Nazi doctrine he created, were unequivocally opposed to any individual right to abortion.http://www.politicususa.com/2014/05/27/republicans-afraid-wendy-davis-comparing-hitler.html

The sad part is, until we went to war against the bastard a lot of Republicans thought Hitler was perfectly fine...and even after we went to war some Republicans were still trading with him.

Only use "Hitler" to describe Hitler.
Only use rape anolgies to describe rape.
Just my humble suggestions for staying out of trouble and not sounding like a complete asshole.
Of course, you can use "asshole" to describe all kinds of "shit" producing persons, should you so desires.
