Maybe I worded this badly?

In a number of cases over the past month or so, I've seen political and social debates degenerate into one party accusing the other side of holding the same war-mongering attitude/imperialistic ideals/right-wing nutjobbery as President Bush. It's become the same lame "I don't want to debate the facts so I'm going to compare them/you to a Very Bad Person in order to win" sort of attitude that gave rise to Godwin's Law. Only in this case, the Very Bad Person is Bush, not Hitler. Whether or not you consider one even remotely as bad as the other, it's still a form of Godwin's and therefore applicable to the same punishment - you automatically lose the argument.
