Crazies

I found a link to this video from one of my favorite blogs, country scribe. The link revealed this clip --



Comparing the president to Hilter is insane. I said the same thing when a history teacher made headlines when he compared Bush to Hitler (in class!) a few years ago.

Now, I'm sure the networks are showing more of the sensational side of things when it comes to these townhall meetings. But you can google or check on youtube for plenty of meetings where crazies have shown up. Whether the billion dollar drug companies are putting the crazies in there to stir things up is one reason, though that is a little too conspiratorial for me.

Certainly, the average American can see that these types are crazies (notice how most at the meeting applaud how the politician handled things).

But some are just nuts. I read on the news the other day about one man standing in line for a townhall meeting, with the president, holding an assault weapon!

Now this is crazy on several levels.

First, if you own an assault rifle (or any other type of weapon not used mainly for hunting), you are a crazy (at least in my book). Second, if you bring any kind of weapon to a meeting with the president or any other politician, you are a crazy.

Just like calling the president - regardless of political party - part of a Nazi regime.
