I don't think Bush is like Hitler, but you can easily compare any two historical figures on at least some levels.

Exactly. You can EASILY compare two historical figures on at least some levels most of which are largely irrelevant. You take any two leaders over a wide enough range of attributes and achievements and you will find plenty of enough to point out.
See if you can make Abraham Lincoln look like Adolf Hitler. Pretty easy really. Didn't finish school, excellent public speaker, suspended civil rights (habeas corpus), invaded a neighbor (the South). I'm sure you can add to the list.
