Please bask in the Hitler vs. Coulter Quiz.  I got 9/14.

got 12/14, mostly by looking at the style of language

I got 12/14 by assuming, in the absence of obvious clues, like referencing the destruction of America or Democrats, that the more elegantly written passage would be Hitler.

Except there were at least a couple Hitler quotes that referred to "America". I wonder whether the person who wrote that quiz "translated" German & Germany to American & America, or if the Hitler quotes came from some interview with an American magazine or something.

Yerp. USENET told me so! And then poking around some more:

From the quiz:
"We must study this vile liberal technique..."

From Mein Kampf:
"We must study this vile Jewish technique..."

Next quote from the Coulter-Hitler Quiz:
"Taking these consequences into account, it is no accident that it is always primarily the liberal..."

From Mein Kampf:
"Taking these consequences into account, it is no accident that it is always primarily the Jew..."

From the quiz:
"Hence it is that at the present time the liberal is the great agitator for the complete destruction of America. Whenever we read of attacks against America taking place in any part of the world the liberal is always the instigator."

From Mein Kampf:
"Hence it is that at the present time the Jew is the great agitator for the complete destruction of Germany. Whenever we read of attacks against Germany taking place in any part of the world the Jew is always the instigator."

etc. Pretty lame.

Same here. A big clue was whether the quote was about "Liberals" vs. "The Liberal".
