Hitler’s Nazi platform sounded a lot like Obama’s or Clinton’s does today: a planned centralized economy with strict gun control, separation of church and state, a ban on private schools, universal health care, and a demand that “the state be charged first with providing the opportunity for a livelihood.” That’s not to mention sharing the eugenics vision of progressives such as Margaret Sanger, by attempting to exterminate an entire race of people in the most monstrous crime in history. Small wonder that today’s progressives like to overlook their support for the Nazi dream.

There was also the infamous Walter Duranty, Moscow bureau chief for the New York Times, who won a Pulitzer Prize for parroting Stalinist propaganda. In one of his (many) notorious “reports” from the Soviet Union, Duranty denied the deaths of thousands of Soviet citizens resulting from Stalin-imposed starvations: “There is no famine or actual starvation nor is there likely to be,” he wrote in the Times on November 15, 1931.
