The answer to this question -- an unqualified NO -- isn't anywhere near this story because the liberal media go berserk when one of their own is compared to Hitler, glosing over inconvenient truths. Of course when Dick Durban compared our fighting men and women to "Nazis" there was little in the MSM to suggest he'd done something wrong.

For the ad itself to be invalid, one would have to make the argument that FDR was a beacon of civil liberties. He was not, of course, least of all for blacks. It is more conceviable that FDR would have given Jessie Owens better treatment if he had been a sharecropper in Alabama. At least then, the Democrats would have had a better chance of getting him hooked on some New Deal program -- letting him pick cotton on the government's version of a plantation.

Nah, FDR wasn't as bad as Hitler. Nope. No way.

I guess the media is still living by two sets of rules: Those they would impose on others, and those they impose on themselves. The funny thing is that journalists wonder why daily newspapers and broadcast news are dying.
