Man standing on busy corner in Denver holding big "Heil Hillary" sign
I'm waiting in my car for the light to change. He's looking right at me and I start to get annoyed. The light turns green. He snaps to attention and gives me a Hitler salute as I start across.

What else could I do?

I returned his salute, vehemently, but with only one finger.

WTF? It isn't even New York! Why does he have to fuss about Hillary?
Shithead.

1. I'm surprised it wasn't a "heil bush" sign!
But maybe he had just finished listening to limpbals or something.

That's right on my way home from work. I just might have to exercise my First Amendment rights and salute him myself...

6. What is this with the Hitler stuff?
What has she done that they could possibly equate her with a murdering dictator?

It's a pretty stupid analogy. Now if they pretended like she is Gloria Steinem or Jane Fonda, I would at least think they finished 6th grade.

8. Ok, question for him
What is he doing on a street corner in the middle of the day?

Out of work? How can that be, don't the Repukes say the ressession is over?

Or was his radio broken that day and couldn't listen to Rush?

At least he spelled it right, so I guess "Leave no Child Behind" is working after all.

As to why Denver and not NYC, well it kinda sounds like the '08 campaign has started early. :evilgrin:

10. Don't worry . . . for slogans to stick they have to be TRUE!
No one we care about is going to change their mind based on some absurd sign. On the other hand, if that's the best thing he's got to do with his time, the joke is on him!

11. Hitler was a Nazi right-winger
Are they embracing Hillary as one of their own? Strange.

12. The DLC's unofficial response
Now, let's not jump to any conclusions. After all, we don't know for a fact that Hillary won't get arrested in a tavern (probably an Applebee's), start a third party from jail, burn down the Congress building, and recruit a bunch of thugs and dress them in brown shirts.

So we shouldn't be opposing the lunatic with the sign, because it might hurt the spirit of bipartisanship, wherein the Republicans kick our butts time after time, and we go back for more. It's a system that has worked so well the past couple of years, and sooner or later, we'll win a whole bunch of elections because people will get tired of seeing Republican boot prints all over our sorry asses.

18. I hate when the right calls democrats hitlerish things
I mean...the left would never do that to Democrats :)

Don't let it bother you. The left is just as guilty as the right when it comes to using Hitler for attacks.

22. Any idea why he picked on you for his "salute"?
and what's his concern with Senator Clinton?
Doesn't he know the names of Colorado's Senators?
