My name is David and Im from Camas, Washington.
First of all I want to let everybody know, since this is the thing tonight, that I am a Marine Corps vet. And like you, I did swear an oath to defend my Constitution against all enemies, foreign and domestic.
Now I heard you say tonight about educating our children - indoctrinating our children, whatever you want to call it.
[I didnt say indoctrinating.]
STAY away from my kids.
I also heard you say you are going to let us keep our health insurance. Well THANK YOU. Its not your right to decide whether or not I keep my current plan or not. Thats MY decision.
Now Ive heard recently in the media, you and some other people on the national political stage call us brown shirts because we have
..
[No I did not
no I did not. (crowd begins rumbling correcting him)
What I said was
and Ive apologized for it.]
OK, well thanks for apologizing, but let
I wont speak to you then Ill speak to others.
But Ill remind you — a little history lesson. The Nazis were the National Socialist Party. They were leftists.
They took over the finances. They took over the car industry. They took over health care in that country.
If Nancy Pelosi wants to find a swastika, maybe the first place she should look is the sleeve of her own arm. [crowd goes wild cheering]
Now what I want to know is, youve done a lot of things that violates your Constitutional oath, as you know. What I want to know is, as a Marine, as a disabled veteran that served this country, Ive kept my oath — do you EVER intend to keep yours?
[crowd gives him a standing ovation while cheering wildly]

FWIW:
A little research turned up Bairds comments that Mr. Hedrick referred to.
Please note he first denied saying them, but then said he apologized for it.
Why apologize for something you never said. Liar!

Marine Corps Veteran Who Blasted The Congressman Appears On Fox And Friends
It is a shame a like Marine did not have a chance to roast Turban head when he called the military folk at Gitmo a few years back Nazis.
Nice little interview on Fox. Thanks for the link!
or murtha!
Up over 330k definitly a viral video/ I am very proud of that Marine.
I saw him on Hannity tonight. He did very well...IMHO schooled Hannity somewhat. Very articulate and very well founded in what he was talking about.
I expect the MSM will start in on him soon...but I also expect this young man to stand firm.
We need to rally to his side and take up supporting positions on his flanks.
Truly amazing. 420,358 with over 8,000 comments.
Nothing but good in that...the more who see it, the better.
Did you see the comments? The leftys are getting ripped!
Good point. Of course Durban and Murtha are of the same cloth.
I can’t help but keeping tabs : )
