What is the nicest thing you could say about Adolf Hitler?

Remember that a few years ago when it was trendy to call Hitler a great man? It's like, yeah, get a job.

Dude had a whiny voice for a public speaker as powerful as he.

Uh. His parting was always straight.

Um .. well, I've been asked this question in class before, believe it or not. A friend of mine responded with "He liked animals, didn't he?"

I truly have nothing nice to say of him. It's just one of those things I can't be objective about.

He didn't smoke..

Well, he did kill himself.

Truthfully I don't really hate the guy. *6 million dead Jews/Gypsies/etc turn in their grave*

But really now, he was a man who stuck to his beliefs and he was good at getting control. If he wasn't all about perfecting the Aryan race and stuff, if he was about stopping world hunger, he would have done it, wouldn't he? Or maybe he would have burned all the hungry people, I don't know. But he was good at being a leader. It's just what he did, not how he did it. You know? He had most of the people agreeing with him. He was a disturbed man. But he wanted the best for Germany, and what he thought was in Germany's best future was no more people he didn't like. He was really smart.

He was good at public speaking.

He had the decency to kill himself.

He saved half of Europe from getting taken over by either the Russians or the Italians.

He really stood up for what he believed in, rather than just being a typical politican telling people what they wanted to hear and then doing something else.

He saved jobs from going overseas.

He was a candidate of change, they kind you can believe in, and he actually delivered--- unlike Obama and McCain who keep claiming they will bring about change but probabbly won't do anything once elected.

I dunno. Never knew the guy.

He was good at getting others to do their best for him

He thought big.

He was charismatic.

Um, nice posture?

He had a hot looking girlfriend.

He was intrigued by mysticism and mythology.

He had the ambition to pursue a (severely distorted) utopian vision for his people.

He's evidence that mental illness is no obstacle to success.

The nicest thing I could say is that he was a hero.

The nicest thing I could say and also mean is he made the German economy viable and began to aggressively pay off the WWI debt to France, England, etc.

He was a genious and understood how to use energy. He studied the ancient symbolism and used it quite affectively. He was the ultimate Pinky out to rule the world and he would have won. But he didn't because of Brain. The doddering fool which in Hitler's life was his ego and greed.

I've never really studied the second world war, or Hitler, but I did understand, from my father, that the "money changers" were doing in Germany, ten times worse, than what they're doing now in this country. They were destroying the economy, the Germans future. Hitler could see what was happening.

When I was very young, my mom showed me a picture of Hitler petting a German Shephard. That image stuck with me, it made him seem quite human. At the impressionable age, it distilled a feeling of hope in humanity, that everyone has something soft and warm buried inside them.

"'Thank God and Greyhound your gone!!" Roy Clark & Buck Owens

He made the name 'Adolf' virtually un-usable.

He was very persistent.

He would have made a great use car sales man because if he can combince people tokill just by making speeches then i bet he could sell you crap and u will think is gold.

He was a helluva motivational speaker.

Adolf Hitler was a cold blooded murderer of the Jewish people

Yeah, he was a dog boy. I heard he was in the German army or something when he was a young dude and they were out of food, and he had a doggy friend, and supposedly they ate his doggy. I'd be mad too!

Thank God he's dead.

Ten times worse? I don't think so. They were a network of small proprietors doing nothing more than agreeing to raise prices on sausages. While the Rothschilds claimed to be jews, they played a large part in assisting with the Holocaust themselves, and were partners with folks like Rockefeller, as American as one could get.

Hitler was just drumming up hate in the same fashion as Bush does with terrorist threats. It's been one of the most proven political tactics to mobilize and control the public for centuries. For the mid-east, it's Israel, for Israel, it's the Palestinians. It's always a fringe minority such that one can rally the majority in common fear while bundling in other unrelated administration objectives.

He's dead

I see you've done your reading....about the Rothschilds, and Rockefellers. I'm obviously not as well read as some people on this subject, but I did hear from some one in Canada, that the "Jews" were strangling the German economy, I made the statement 10 times worse, to mean harder than they're doing here...so far. My Dad said the same. But, it's the "make believe" Jews...those that claim to be Jews, but are not.

As you can tell, I dislike the "money changers". I agree the enemy uses strategy, political tactics to control the public. In politics, nothing happens by accident.

He had a lovely country house just out of Berchtesgaden

He was single-minded, determined?

Perhaps that is what twisted him? He sold his soul to the devil to get his doggy revenge!!

He's dead.

The jews 'here' were strangling the German economy at the presidents request for sanctions against Germany, even though it hurt German jews as much as anyone. What we are talking about really depends on who you mean by jews. Bankers who were hardly jewish would have had the greatest impact, but it's the small businesmen visible everywhere who were made out to be the enemy. Their economy strangling powers were certainly less than those of AT&T or Exxon, because they didn't have monopoly corporations, and any other smal proprietors could still compete with them.

The scenario reminds me of people in Santa Cruz who were pissed off at Asian store owners willing to work longer hours and hire family for cheap so they could cut prices on liquor and such, thus steal the existing competitons clientale. Hated for working harder to get ahead (and being a racially identifiable threat). Give me a break.

He meant well.

Adolf Hitler was a sweetheart.

> He meant well.

FUNNY!!!

Uhm... he pulled whole Germany out of depression???

Hitler wanted peace, Piece of France, Piece of England, Piece of Poland, Piece of Italy, Piece of Belgium....

Look at the number of hits on this survey! We're all really curious to see what anybody could say. As for me, I wonder if I could say he had a thick head of hair. He certainly had a thick head. . .

That he's dead!

Well he was a good speaker, he managed to unify the German people, and I think he was the major push behind the VW beetle wasn't he?

NOPE, CAN'T THINK OF A SINGLE THING.

A HERO? I THINK NOT. JUST AN EGOTISRIC MANIAC MURDERER...

Those things were nearly underpowered. "Faster Hitler, faster! Here comes the hill." This must be why he gathered troops.

Why don't you read the whole post? I clearly said that I could only say and mean that he fixed the German economy, which he did.

Cool moustache, he inspired alot of people and made Germany a powerful country

He somehow convinced the German citizens to carry out his insane goals.

He looked clean. (Take into consideration the fact that the speaker has had to deal with more than her fair share of scum.)

He was a man of conviction and authority and inspired millions with his charismatic leadership.

Ick.
