Geeze, John McCain hasn’t even won the presidency and already the Hitler comparisons are beginning:

John McCain’s campaign hit back at Madonna on Sunday after the pop diva kicked off her world tour with a concert that bracketed the US presidential candidate with Adolf Hitler.

McCain campaign spokesman Tucker Bounds angrily condemned the segment of Madonna’s concert in Cardiff on Saturday that appeared to draw a comparison between McCain, Hitler and Zimbabwean strongman Robert Mugabe.

“The comparisons are outrageous, unacceptable and crudely divisive all at the same time,” Bounds said in a statement reported by Fox News.

“It clearly shows that when it comes to supporting Barack Obama, his fellow worldwide celebrities refuse to consider any smear or attack off limits.”

So Barack Obama is likened to John Lennon, Gandhi and Al Gore by this well past her prime, under-dressed entertainer (IMHO) and what..that is supposed to convince me to vote for the man?

This business of anyone, not just entertainers, comparing candidates and those already installed in office to others is beyond ridiculous.

President Bush and Senator McCain have not one of the characteristics of Hitler and Barack Obama has not accomplished anything which would qualify him to fit the shoes of Gandhi or for that matter the talented John Lennon.

Video here if you are so inclined. (I cannot vouch for its full contents as I only could bear the first 45 second or so.)
