SOMETIMES IT FEELS AS IF WHEN THE STAKES GET HIGHER, THE QUALITY OF DEBATE GETS LOWER. Oh, I don't think there's any question about that. Now it's gone Malcolm X. It's gone "by any means necessary." I mean, how many campaigns do you remember where Hitler has come up a lot? If I were the Hitler people, I'd be raising a stink. I think he's gotta protect his legacy. He's gotta come out and go, Look, all right, you guys have your flaws but, hey, I was evil, baby...
Decked out dashingly in jodhpurs and flight goggles, Lindbergh runs on a single plank: he will keep the U.S. out of World War II. And he's as good as his word. Once elected, he makes peace with Hitler at a conference in Iceland, fetes German diplomats at the White House and establishes the chillingly plausible Office of American Absorption, a government agency aimed at "encouraging America's religious and national minorities to become further incorporated into the larger society"--in other words, forcibly breaking up Jewish communities and dispersing their members to rural backwaters per the novel's Homestead...
...have been made more vulnerable to attacks. The candidates should address the host of vital issues facing Americans and reject the trivial personal smears. Collins Onuoha Berlin Bush is quoted as saying "I'm not the historian. I'm the guy making history." Yes, but what kind of history? Hitler and Saddam were also the guys making history.

Since Hitler is a monstrous presence in the national memory, realistic portrayals on the big screen were considered bad taste - and sympathetic portrayals were unthinkable. Other countries made big-budget World War II epics with Hollywood stars such as Alec Guinness and Anthony Hopkins playing Hitler, but the last German-language film about Hitler and his subordinates, The Last Act, was produced in 1955 - and its Hitler was a raving lunatic. Now a new German film about Hitler's final days in the bunker...
...without the gore can try The Animated Passion, with seven sing-along hymns, a blue-eyed Jesus enduring most of his pain off-camera, and a stodgy illustrative style. The less pious will turn to a South Park DVD, The Passion of the Jew, with Cartman as a neo--Hitler youth and Gibson as a raving loony. It's funny-angry, but for the gang's sturdiest liturgical statement, go to Season 4's Do the Handicapped Go to Hell? and its sequel, Probably. --By Richard Corliss
