How is this different from liberal American political thought?
"We ask that the government undertake the obligation above all of providing citizens with adequate opportunity for employment and earning a living. The activities of the individual must not be allowed to clash with the interests of the community, but must take place within its confines and be for the good of all. Therefore, we demand: … an end to the power of the financial interests. We demand profit sharing in big business. We demand a broad extension of care for the aged. We demand … the greatest possible consideration of small business in the purchases of national, state, and municipal governments. In order to make possible to every capable and industrious [citizen] the attainment of higher education and thus the achievement of a post of leadership, the government must provide an all-around enlargement of our entire system of public education … We demand the education at government expense of gifted children of poor parents … The government must undertake the improvement of public health – by protecting mother and child, by prohibiting child labor … by the greatest possible support for all clubs concerned with the physical education of youth. We combat the … materialistic spirit within and without us, and are convinced that a permanent recovery of our people can only proceed from within on the foundation of the common good before the individual good."
– From the political program of the Nazi Party, adopted in Munich, February 24, 1920

Please grow up. Comparing any American party to the Nazis shows how little you know of American history.
That said even the evil Nazi Party rejected child labor. Are you MORE EVIL than they were by suggesting that we allow child labor to exist in the USA?

Well (I'm an Independent was before a Republican) it's a bit different in the mindset based behind it. You see for the Liberal American Political Thought it's based off of the possibility that the system, once certain of these things are done, will in fact take care of itself so that the government doesn't have control of these things. Whereas in the Nazi party, the mindset was that the government must have control over the people for the greater good of the people regardless of the health of the system.
Take for instance the economic state we're in now. The liberals say that we should broaden and enlarge the entire system of public education as you put it. If we had done this and kept it to a high level of performance then maybe we would have smarter citizens. Smarter citizens would in turn be able to manage finances better, which in turn may have prevented the economic crisis as it was (even with the war). For most liberals it would be at this point that they could step back from certain things and concentrate on others (step back from trying to dictate the market and focus on continuing to uphold the educational standards). But because education slipped in the last decade, the whole country is behind and now a cornerstone of the system has degraded, making the entire system volatile (for its citizens) and unstable (in the global economy), creating a fractured and unsafe country.

What exactly in this quote do you object to? The part about jobs, taking care of the aged, educating children, or improving public health? It sounds an awful lot like the Republican Party platform just as much as it sounds like the Democrats. Wanting to help people doesn't make the Democratic Party like the Nazi's. Perhaps we should talk about the similarities of wanting mass arrests and deportation of "illegals," the legal discrimination of U.S. citizens because of their race, national origin, or sexual preference, and the belief in political and religious fairy tales rather then actual science. Political parties that advocate such things are much closer to the Nazi's then anything you've pointed out.

What parts do Conservatives have with it! Let me see! MY ANSWER IN CAPS
We ask that the government undertake the obligation above all of providing citizens with adequate opportunity for employment and earning a living. DO CONSERVATIVES DISAGREE WITH THIS? CONSERVATIVES, BELIEVE IN OBLIGATION TO KEEP WAGES LOW, SO PROFITS ARE UP!
The activities of the individual must not be allowed to clash with the interests of the community, but must take place within its confines and be for the good of all. CONSERVATIVES BELIEVE ACTIVITIES OF THE RICH SHOULD BE FOR THE GOOD OF THE RICH!
Therefore, we demand: … an end to the power of the financial interests. CONSERVATIVES BELIEVE THAT NO REGULATION OF BANKS IS GREAT FOR THE RICH!
We demand profit sharing in big business. WHAT A GREAT CONCEPT!
We demand a broad extension of care for the aged. CONSERVATIVES BELIEVE LET EM DIE, THEY CAN'T WORK ANY MORE!
We demand … the greatest possible consideration of small business in the purchases of national, state, and municipal governments. CONSERVATIVES BELIEVE ONLY BIG BUSINESS SHOULD GET GOVERNMENT CONTRACTS. SCREW MIDDLE CLASS (HALIBURTON NON CONTESTED CONTRACTS)
In order to make possible to every capable and industrious [citizen] the attainment of higher education and thus the achievement of a post of leadership, the government must provide an all-around enlargement of our entire system of public education. CONSERVATIVES BELIEVE IN KEEPING THE MASSES IGNORANT, SO THEY WILL WORK FOR LESS, ie MOVE JOBS TO COMMUNIST COUNTRIES!
We demand the education at government expense of gifted children of poor parents. WHAT A CONCEPT! CONSERVATIVES BELIEVE ONLY THE RICH SHOULD HAVE ACCESS TO HIGHER LEARNING FOR GIFTED CHILDREN. THEY DON'T WANT COMPETITION.
The government must undertake the improvement of public health – by protecting mother and child, by prohibiting child labor. CONSERVATIVES BELIEVE IN BRINGING BACK CHILD LABOR, NEED MORE CHEAP LABOR, SEE ABOVE.
by the greatest possible support for all clubs concerned with the physical education of youth. CONSERVATIVES BELIEVE ONLY THE RICH SHOULD HAVE ACCESS TO PHYSICAL EDUCTION. DON'T WANT HEALTHY MASSES, THEY MIGHT KICK THEIR ASSES.
We combat the … materialistic spirit within and without us, CONSERVATIVES BELIEVE HELL NO, WE WANT ALL THE "MATERIALIST SPIRIT" JUST DON'T WANT TO SHARE.
and are convinced that a permanent recovery of our people can only proceed from within on the foundation of the common good before the individual good." CONSERVATIVES BELIEVE IN INDIVIDUAL GOOD! WHAT IS GOOD FOR THE RICH IS GOOD FOR EVERYONE!

WWII was about preventing communism from taking over Europa
not saving the poor Jews. It's political interest. Just like theres no difference between Lebensraum and Manifest Dynasty,
hey, where'd all the American Indians go? Are the blacks in America today really descended from Slaves?

Hitler also mandated modern highways be built. I guess you only drive on back roads, huh? I'm looking forward to your future questions denouncing highways as evil Socialistic Nazi schemes.
"Just days after the 1933 Nazi takeover, Adolf Hitler enthusiastically embraced an ambitious autobahn construction project and appointed Fritz Todt the Inspector General of German Road Construction. Soon, over 100,000 labourers worked at construction sites all over Germany. As well as providing employment and improved infrastructure, necessary for economic recovery efforts, the project was also a great success for propaganda purposes."

Hitler knew exactly where he was going whereas, libs do not understand the inherent ramifications of such a philosophy.

Are you such a tard you can't realize that just because the nazi's were overall evil that perhaps..just PERHAPS..they had a few good idea's as well?
The average Neo con is so stupid they can't fathom this at all.To have any simialrity in the slightest to something Hitler or Mao once said surely means that liberals will soon be filling mass graves with the bodies of their opponents.This is the extent of the mental illness known as Neo conservatism.
