Screw Godwin.
The point, to spell it out for you, is that if there are no 'hard facts' 
concerning even someone like Hitler and one of Humanity's most heinous 
crimes then the poster who demanded 'hard facts' about Bush and the Iraq 
war before considering an opinion valid should be consistent. I would 
suggest that the poster does not doubt Hitler ordered the extermination 
of the Jews despite lack of 'hard facts' in that case.
