Two members of the audience at House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's (D-Calif.) town hall meeting in Denver, Colorado, on Thursday -- including a toddler in a stroller -- were bedecked with images equating Barack Obama's policies to Nazism and the president to Hitler himself.
The photos, which were passed to the Huffington Post by a Democratic reader, are the latest evidence of the increasingly wild accusations leveled by protesters at health-care town halls -- though these may be some of the more remarkable yet.
In one image, a young man is pictured with a shirt that reads "Hitler Gave Great Speeches Too." TalkLeft blogger Jeralyn Merritt interviewed the teen, who told her was 16 and hailed from former Gov. Sarah Palin's hometown of Wasilla, Alaska. The progressive website FireDogLake, has more.
This article then refers you to another webside http://campaignsilo.firedoglake.com/2009/08/06/16-year-old-from-wasilla-wears-obamahitler-t-shirt-at-denver-pelosi-event/ that explains how their rapid response team stopped the swarm of protesters from entering the event..... and refer to the protesters as "tea baggers", among other things.
Now we have a better understanding of why Pelosi has no protesters... she will not stand for freedom of speech.
