After President Barack Obama delivered a speech on health care reform at the University of Maryland, rolling out spoke with several of his critics. The most interesting critic was a guy named Travis. Travis held a poster that depicted President Obama as Adolph Hitler. Here is what Travis had to say.
So why do you have a picture of President Barack Obama with a mustache that is similar to the one Adolf Hitler wore?
Obama has a Nazi health care plan. It’s the exact plan that Adolph Hitler used in 1939. The policy puts a monetary value on people’s life. Some treatments aren’t cost effective.
You can disagree with his health care plan, but is it fair to compare him to a person as evil as Hitler?
The question is, ‘Did Obama adopt Hitler’s 1939 policy?’ And if he did, it’s true. Everyone will lose if we pass the health care reform bill because it says that we are allowing Hilter into this country.
Several more attempts were made to get Travis to present a reasonable explanation as to why President Obama compares to a person who murdered millions of Jews, created concentration camps, and executed his political adversaries. Travis, along with thousands of other uninformed Americans, cannot
present a legitimate answer because the answer does not exist. Right-wing conservatives are a dying breed. Due to the fact that the
Democrats control the House, Senate and the White House, the Republicans are in danger
of becoming a footnote for the next eight years. So in an attempt to
desperately make themselves relevant again, the group has used hateful
and irresponsible methods to discredit President Obama. –amir shaw
