Today’s Video: Lopez Obrador = Hitler?!

Godwin’s Law seems to have occurred during the already ugly debate in Mexico over oil reform.

Mexico’s Congress has been shut down for over a week by opposition politicos against President Felipe Calderon’s plans for PEMEX. In response, “a conservative civic group called Better Society, Better Government” issued an attack ad comparing leftist leader Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador to the likes of Hitler, Mussolini, and Pinochet.

Is the ad appropriate or tasteless? See for yourself:
