    Exactly. I find it really annoying that people have to get all crazy with all of this PC nonsense. It's like because he used the name "Hitler" people's ability to think logically just stops. To take from that quote that Smith was saying anything positive about Hitler is just a wild stretch of the imagination.

    You should also think about what you say when you are a celebrity. Making comments about Hitler can eaisly be misconstrued.

    You got to be careful no matter who you are talking with the media. If they don't like you they will make sure it is twisted - OR if they want to make a scene, which in turn sells the news.

    Isn't this the case with everyone of us? Everyone of us has a definition of good and bad which is shaped by the environment we live in, sort of like the 'frame of reference' bit in Physics.

    Not only him...some of the important top-ranked Nazi officials had a Jewish lineage.
