That protesters on both sides of the political spectrum equate America's leaders with dictators like Hitler isn't new. But critics were shocked when such a comparison was made by an elected official.
Last Friday, a group rented a room at the Irvine Hilton to protest the Democratic Party of Orange County's 15th Annual Harry Truman Awards and headliner House Speaker Nancy Pelosi. Joining the demonstration was Irvine Councilman and Assembly candidate Steven Choi.
An OC Register photographer caught Choi roaming the Hilton lobby before Pelosi's address. Choi is seen in a suit, tie and a depiction of Pelosi as Joseph Stalin, the Soviet dictator who killed millions under his Great Terror campaign. Another photo shows Choi posing with a woman who is wearing a Pelosi-SS guard illustration.

Interesting comments at site. Few people in this current political scene are as despicable in my view as Nancy P.
A Stalinized Pelosi? He really should have an oncologist see that.
Isn’t “Stalinized-Pelose” a bit redundant...
Hey, I like this Choi guy....most politicans have no backbone to do such a thing like this...calling Pelosi a “Stalinist” and wearing such a Pelosi-Stalin button
Definitely a lot better than Newt Gingrich, who has been buddying up to Stalin....er, Pelosi, recently. Cannot believe GOP voters want Gingrich to run for the GOP nod.....
Hey that may be the scariest thought of all! Newt Pelosi Stalin Gingrich in the WH
Are we even sure Pelosi would be insulted by the comparison.
The others: Krom (running for Congress as a Rat), Kang shook hands with Obama), and Agran (ran to the far left for President in 1992) are committed loons.
