First time Representative Democrat Debbie Halvorson of Illinois' 11th District is struggling in the polls against Republican Adam Kinzinger. Her desperation is starting to show, too, because her office just got caught supplying Democrat staffers to a protest rally holding signs that call Kinzinger a Nazi. Kinzinger is a veteran of the U.S. Air Force and flew missions in Iraq.
A line of protesters showed up at a Kinzinger appearance on Sept. 15th sporting signs calling the Republican military vet a Nazi. Kinzinger's folks filmed the little protest and followed the perpetrators right back to Halvorson's office. Video reveals that Halvorson's office workers seemed to know the protesters.
Kinzinger wants to know why these outrageous, over-the-top protesters seemed to be members of Halvorson's ofice? He i demanding an apology from Halvorson...
See the video at Publiusforum.com...
Talking about deperation. That act alone should cost her the election.
You think that the national media would report this since they had their panties in a bunch anytime the Obama Youth were compared to the Hitlerjugend or Obamacare was compared to socialized medicine, or Obama graphic iconography harkened back to NAZI and Soviet propaganda art...
*IL Politics Ping*
Smear a decorated Iraq War vet as a NAZI? Guess she wants to go from losing by 15 points in the polls to losing by 20 points. I’ll be so glad when we get this district back. Halvorson was a shameless Emil Jones puppet in the State Senate and would have never been elected to Congress if it weren’t for her original opponent dropping out and the Obama surge in 2008.
Beck as Hitler; Palin as Hitler, Kinzinger as Hitler.
“Are you with the Halvorson campaign?”
(in Chorus) “NO-o-o-o-o!!!”
Then after protesting they return to Halvorson campaign HQ.
And Halvorson is a sitting congresswoman.
I donated.
That is a tell-tale sign of desperation.
I know what you mean, If there was even a TINY hint that a Republican was somehow linked to calling an opponent a Nazi it would be the top of the world news.
How ‘bout we just post the video right here?

By the way, I thought you indicated that you wanted to post your full articles.
“Read the rest here” is the same as an excerpt. Is there some other reason you don’t want to post in full? I’m quite certain that most FReepers would appreciate having the whole article, along with the video links, posted in full on this great site that ~they pay for~ through their donations.
