Comparing Obama To Hitler
http://thinkprogress.org/2009/06/25/obama-hitler-thomann/

Maryland GOP group distances itself from letter comparing Obama to Hitler: We ‘never approved it.’

As former TP editor Judd Legum reported earlier this week, the website of the Republican Women of Anne Arundel County — “one of Maryland’s most prominent Republican organizations” — prominently featured a letter from RWAAC President Joyce Thomann that compared Obama to Hitler. “Obama and Hitler have a great deal in common in my view,” she wrote. That letter has now been taken down and replaced with an “urgent message“:

The article put on our web site by Joyce Thomann was done solely by her. Our Board of Directors never saw the article and would never have approved it. We are not in support of Mrs. Thomann’s personal thoughts ot opinions.

Ms. Thomann’s husband, Charles, told the Baltimore Sun that the letter “wasn’t meant in the way people are taking it.” He conceded that “maybe she wasn’t as artful as she could have been,” but said the main point was still valid: “The methods that Pelosi and Obama are using to get the socialist view point across, is similar to what Hitlder did. … I happen to be a history teacher.”

1. This history teacher... might she look at Bush's record too?
So far there are more comparisons of * than Obama, and rightly so.

4. One of America's most prominent Republican organizations.
Oh-kay. History teacher... oh-kay. And she just happens to have the same thought as a common construct floating out of freeperland.

They can't call President Obama a nigger, so they call him Hitler.
