A conservative Georgia Republican congressional candidate is criticizing President Barack Obama in roadside billboards that use the communist hammer-and-sickle symbol.
The three ads from candidate Jody Hice ask passers-by: "Had Enough Of Obama's Change?" The "C" in change is replaced by the hammer and sickle. The symbol was associated with iron-fisted 20th-century dictators.
Hice said he considers some policies of the Democratic president socialist, including government bailouts for the auto industry and an overhaul of the health insurance system.

I said exactly the same thing a minute ago on another thread.
This is exactly where the GOP needs to be. Sure, the media will howl, but it WILL resonate with the voters.

It’s good to see that people are coming out, finally, and saying it out loud. It needs to be said over and over. The truth hurts.

"The symbol was associated with iron-fisted 20th-century dictators." Sheeesh...where to start?
1) It's still associated with iron-fisted dictators, the Obammunist, for one.
2) Those "iron-fisted dictators" were/are generally Communists, being as the hammer and sickle was the symbol of the Soviet Communist Party.
3) This moron writer must be talking to folks under 30, because everyone else should clearly remember the significance of the hammer and sickle.

Slap!
There is no recovery from such criticism.
All Obama voters are become enemies for inflicting the traitor on the country.

“Georgia’s Democratic Party calls the ads inappropriate and distasteful, but says Hice has the right to say what he wants.”
Well, how generous of them!

The democrat party, party of slavery, secession, the KKK, Jim Crow and voting against civil rights is both inappropriate and distasteful.

The three ads from candidate Jody Hice ask passers-by: "Had Enough Of Obama's Change?" The "C" in change is replaced by the hammer and sickle.
Another idea would be, the New Black Panthers blocking the polling place, with Obama and Holder looking on and smiling, with a headline about Holder pulling the plug on the investigation.

The reporter just can't bring himself (herself? itself?) to utter the word, "Communist." It's probably painful to admit that the symbol might be associated by some (though nobody at the newspaper) with dictatorship. It's also sad that this probably is news to anyone under 25 who went to public school.
