Then I will take up the slack. Obama is a Marxist and is on the same path to evil as trod Hitler.

Oh, and Broun.. you're a Marxist loving Hit'-Symph.

What should the poor guy have said? That Obama is a "Communist" and should be compared to Stalin?

It’s possible they had something on him. Now, I know O’s not in office yet but I’m sure W will give him anything he needs. He called Clinton and asked his advice on how to greet Obama. Maybe he got some FBI files from Clinton and gave them to O.

Cuba News Network says that Sarah Palin is willing to help or work with Obama on certain issues.

Too bad someone won’t report the threats. It would at least get people thinking and if something bad happened, maybe the idiots in this country would put two and two together. Republican congressmen are the most spineless bunch I’ve ever seen.

I hope you’re right. Now, why would anyone make it up that he apologized? Not saying they didn’t but what was the motive?

Tell me where the congressman was wrong. Calling Hitler is extreme and not necessary. The cult of personality and the policies do represent similar to Hitler and other dictators. It is something we have not seen here in America. The closest might have been FDR, but that was far different situation.

Stick with the truth, when it is borne out, you will be a hero.

Remember when Dick Armey called Barney Frank "Barney Fag"? He apologized profusely. I loved every apology because each apology offered another mention of "Barney Fag".

This could be a trick; say something outrageous, get you name in the paper, then apologize to make sure the story has legs. Maybe this is not so conspiratorial but don't think for a minute politicians don't know how to play games.

Why be sorry
obama has used the youth along with his followers to have them brainwashed.
obama uses a emblem for himself
obama was very friendly with a man who used violence to over throw the govt similar to Hitler infact I would say Ayers is now doing what Hitler did but has been priming obama over these years
obama wants a security group set up independent of the army
obama wants a youth group

many similarities to Hitler and obama to ignore

he should not say sorry at all and why is it that the right have to say sorry but the left does what it wants and says what it wants.
The left is laughing at the republican party because half of them have no balls what so ever

Of course he’s not like Hitler. Hitler didn’t make any bones about anything. He told you he was gonna screw you and he did it. Obama will secretly screw you and won’t even give you the courtesy of a reacharound.

More gutlessness from staunch Republicans.

Damn we conservatives are like Moses and the tribe wandering out in the desert looking for guidance that so far is not there.

Jim Robinson is the closest thing we have for a leader and thank God for FR.

How about comparing him to Stalin, Lenin, Honecker, Ho Chi Minh, Mao, Castro, Chavez? Suddenly, once they’re “chosen”, they become untouchable!
