Massachusetts Congressman Barney Frank addresses woman comparing Obama to Hitler

[LuciferSam]

How does one respond to such well thought out criticism? I could respond with several made up acronyms, but I see no point in feeding more acorns to a jack@ss.

If at first you can't secede, cry, cry again.

Those President Obama as Hitler posters are from the Lyndon LaRouche Political Action committee - LaRouchePAC.

Certainly not "extreme right" nor "extreme right wing nuts." They are nuts, but not on the 'right' side! ;-)

This point seems to have been lost in the mainstream media and amongst political discussion I've encountered. We want to assume that all of the people with the Obama/Hitler posters making the "nazi" comparisons are just mainstream, disgruntled conservatives and Republicans. The very question and statement she was presenting were based on LaRouche's comparison of the propoposed health care plan's Medicare revisions to Hitler's euthanasia policy for elderly people. Supposedly ints in their pamphlet those people were holding.

side note - I don't understand the basis behind the Hitler comparison. Besides being offensive, I don't get the point.

she meant that hitler was also a socialist/marxist/who supported gov take over of the state

george washington was a right wing extremist

and all of our Founding Fathers would have been labeled as "terrorists" by England if they used the USA's current definition.

It doesn't matter what they were called or what label was applied. They were primarily fascist which is a characteristic of the extreme right.

actually fascism is a left wing ideology, along with communism and socialism, and globalism . There are a lot of ism/s out there, and they are just about all bad

It's openminded because I didn't pass off the 14 points as indisputable fact, though I happen to agree with many of them. I didn't say Bush was a fascist. [Edit] WTF am I doing wasting my time explaining myself to you??:roll:

Good grief lucifer, you sound just like all the germans who put hitler in office. He was the greatest thing in the world and they didnt know about the ovens.

What the hell are you talking about numbnutz, I didn't say I agreed with the fascist principles. I said I agreed the author's definitions of facism. Get some reading skills dumbass.

I'm cutting and pasting the reference from Wikipedia's Layndon LaRouche entry since it addresses the issue most efficiently; he and hsi people are where the Obama/Hitler comparisons are coming from:

"LaRouche's comparisons of U.S. President Barack Obama to German dictator Adolf Hitler in 2009 have generated controversy. LaRouche has called Obama's actions "impeachable," without actually calling for impeachment, due to his support of health insurance reform that LaRouche says is comparable to Hitler's Action T4 euthanasia program.[156] The LaRouche movement has printed pamphlets with a picture on the front showing Obama and Hitler laughing together, and have made posters of Obama wearing a Hitler-style mustache.[157] In Seattle, police have been called twice in response to people who were offended by the posters threatening to tear them apart or to assault the LaRouche supporters holding them.[158] In one notable event, Rep Barney Frank referred to the posters as "vile, contemptible nonsense." [159]"

And again, Lyndon LaRouche is an activist and perennial presidential candidate, most recently and most frequently as a Democrat.
