This comment was originally taken out of context and implied that Will Smith thought Hitler was a good person. In fact, what he was saying was that evil people don't recognize evil in themselves. I'm not sure what topic could have made Will Smith utter this line...hmmm...we could only imagine.
From USAToday.com:
The Daily Record, a Scottish newspaper, recently quoted Smith as saying: 'Even Hitler didn't wake up going, 'let me do the most evil thing I can do today.' I think he woke up in the morning and using a twisted, backwards logic, he set out to do what he thought was 'good.''I don't think George Bush thinks he is evil. But that doesn't mean that he is not evil. When someone becomes as convinced as he is that they are right they are able to convince themselves that torture, killing, and war are OK because it is for the 'greater good'.
