Congressman compares Obama to the Nazis/Soviet Union
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/27655039/

"It may sound a bit crazy and off base, but the thing is, he's the one who proposed this national security force," Rep. Paul Broun said of Obama in an interview Monday with The Associated Press. "I'm just trying to bring attention to the fact that we may — may not, I hope not — but we may have a problem with that type of philosophy of radical socialism or Marxism."

"That's exactly what Hitler did in Nazi Germany and it's exactly what the Soviet Union did," Broun said. "When he's proposing to have a national security force that's answering to him, that is as strong as the U.S. military, he's showing me signs of being Marxist."

1. Pfft. Broun, you're an amatuer. Call us when you've called him the Anti-Christ, then we'll talk.
It looks like the low-level GOPers are all jockeying to see who can be top dog now by seeing who can come up with the most outrageous Obama insult that sticks.

This is going to be entertaining to say the least.

This Broun is worried that President Obama may be acting as a dictator, why he may have the nerve to use executive orders, like someone else did who was that again? Or is that President Obama may use them differently to perhaps undo some things that has him so concerned?
This guy could be an example of a "concern troll"
