National Socialist and conservative are mutually exclusive terms. I know many on the left would love to make this comparison but the shoe doesn't fit. In fact, there is a much better comparison with big government thinking of liberals than with a socially and fiscally conservative belief system. Nazi's believed in big government control, abortion, euthanasia and they were anti-religion. These are all attributes of the modern Democrat party are they not? Probably the biggest difference is that the Nazis were willing to use force to expand their power and influence which is more in line with communists. But they are in no way comparable to fiscal and social conservatives.

As for McVeigh, I would agree he would not identify himself as a Democrat because of his distrust of government and his belief in the 2nd amendment. But no one distrusts government more than left wing nuts and anarchists on the far left. That is where I would put him. He is out there with the likes of Bill Ayers.
