N. Iowa Billboard Unfairly Links OBAMA to Hitler

An Iowa Tea Party group recently caused an uproar by creating a billboard that compares President Barack Obama to Adolf Hitler and Vladimir Lenin. What is even more interesting is that other members of the Tea Party are condemning the ad as well.

The ad shows pictures of Obama, Hitler and Lenin with the label, "Democrat Socialism," "National Socialism," and "Marxist Socialism." Below the pictures are the words, "Radical leaders prey on the fearful & naive."

The group's co-founder says that the billboard is simply meant to be a message against socialism, but some of the members of the Tea Party openly disagreed with the tone and nature of the message:

The North Iowa Tea Party began displaying the billboard in downtown Mason City last week. The sign shows large photographs of Obama, Nazi leader Hitler and communist leader Lenin beneath the labels "Democrat Socialism," "National Socialism," and "Marxist Socialism."

===================================================


Let's be "Perfectly Clear" the billboard comparing President Obama to Adolf Hitler is wrong. Linking Obama to Hitler, the leader of Nazi Germany who oversaw the killing of 6 million Jews and whose invasions of neighboring countries led to World War II. is madness! While Obama simply changed the health care system. Can we really compare the two?


===================================================

The ugly head of racism is such a subtle social disease, that we are not usually aware when it impacts our choices.

The outrage that America has shown toward its first "Black President" is no different from the anger that an angry white mob showed toward the "uppity negro" who said, "Hello," to a white woman 70 years ago.


===================================================

Even in those situations, people went out of their way to distinguish the "good blacks" from the bad ones. Being "good" effectively meant that you knew your place,

Has America forgotten that President Obama inherited this mess of an economy, and the problems of this nation? It will take more time then he has been given to ATTEMPT to solve this Nations issues.

Although, the Tea Party commited this childish act, at least a few members disagreed with this tactic of sending a message of hate.


That's just a waste of money, time, resources and it's not going to further our cause," said Shelby Blakely, a leaders of the Tea Party Patriots, a national group. "It's not going to help our cause. It's going to make people think that the tea party is full of a bunch of right-wing fringe people, and that's not true."

Seem like Bush would have been a better candidate for the poster than Obama hands down, but we all know it's the racist game of politcal gain taking place.


The N. Iowa Tea Party members who participated in this foul plot, should suffer some ramifications for their actions, because it's basically slanderous,"



Bottom line..............
