Nazi-invoking Democrats complain: Rush is calling us Nazis!

By Michelle Malkin  •  August 6, 2009 06:55 PM

I just received an un-freaking-believable e-mail from the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee. The entire Democrat machine has been tarring Tea Party activists and townhall protesters as Brown Shirts and fascists…and now they’re whining about Rush Limbaugh challenging their own fascist behavior.

When in trouble, bash Rush.

Who needs the Comedy Channel? It’s Godwin’s Law gone wild.

DCCC Rapid Response

Dear Michelle,

If there was any more doubt that the right wing fringe is reaching shocking new lows by the day, Rush Limbaugh is now openly comparing the Democratic Party to Nazis and using swastikas on his website.

This comes right after Minority Whip Eric Cantor said that the GOP ‘needs’ Mr. Limbaugh. We’re issuing a special Rapid Response Alert to encourage grassroots Democrats to hold them accountable.

Sign our petition telling Republicans they should immediately condemn Limbaugh’s hateful rhetoric.

At a time when families are looking for solutions to rebuild the economy and make health care more affordable, Rush Limbaugh is attempting to sidetrack the important debate through his use of symbols that are synonymous with murder, intolerance and genocide.

Sign our petition to make sure they are held accountable.

    The degrees of fit between Mussolini and THE ONE are apparent, and grow day-by-day.

    That is a cold, hard-eyed lesson from history, not a “fringe” notion.

    THE ONE is urging a totalitarian solution on a non-problem…health care in America. What does the term totalitarian mean? It is a term coined by Mussolini, and only meant “all inclusive”. As he meant it, it was a benign concept; everybody in, nobody out.

    The danger, then as now, was in the means to the end and the unintended costs and consequences.

    Rush Limbaugh is attempting to sidetrack the important debate…

    I don’t think Jon Vogel knows Rush very well.

    From what I’ve heard, Rush is succeeding in detailing every buried page of this health care “reform” bill so that it will eventually sidetrack itself and anyone who tries to ram it down America’s throat overnight.

    Rush only brought this up because of Nancy Pelosi.

    Apprarently, only the Democrat Speaker of the House can get away with calling ordinary Americans Nazis.

    But, oh must the fur fly, if the non-Democrat Rush Limbaugh subsequent to Pelosi draws specific parallels between certain actual Nazi policies and certain Democrat policies.

    Double-standard much, Dems?

    Basically Pelosi threw Rush a fat hanging curveball and Rush smacked it hard.

    If you don’t want actual historical context to be cited, Nancy, don’t trot out the N- word. Whoever invokes the N- word in an argument first is typically the loser of the argument anyway.

    I heard Rush’s comments. His remarks were in rebuttal to liberals accusing conservatives of fascism. He discussed the characteristics of fascism as exemplified by Nazi Germany and pointed out how those characteristics were the same ones often displayed our modern day liberals. His point was that the defining characteristics of fascism are more commonly seen on the left and not the right.

    Anyone on the left making such accusations is displaying ignorance of the subject and is probably engaging in mindless attack dog politics.

    All anyone has to do is look fascism up, it is right there in black and white, fascism is the Democrat Party. What kills me is they know it, they are just upset that Americans are watching now and see it. I think they are angry that Americans are not as stupid as they thought, even making the education system in this country worthless like the Democrats did, Americans still are figuring them out. I’ve told a few people now, if you do not vote against Democrats in the upcoming elections then you probably would have felt right at home in 1930′s Germany.

    I used the word ‘fascist’ to describe Obama on my Twitter account several times recently and I regret doing so. I won’t be doing it again.

    Projection is an amazing thing!

    Description
    When a person has uncomfortable thoughts or feelings, they may project these onto other people, assigning the thoughts or feelings that they need to repress to a convenient alternative target.

    Projection may also happen to obliterate attributes of other people with which we are uncomfortable. We assume that they are like us, and in doing so we allow ourselves to ignore those attributes they have with which we are uncomfortable.

    Neurotic projection is perceiving others as operating in ways one unconsciously finds objectionable in yourself.
    Complementary projection is assuming that others do, think and feel in the same way as you.
    Complimentary projection is assuming that others can do things as well as you.
    Projection also appears where we see our own traits in other people, as in the false consensus effect. Thus we see our friends as being more like us than they really are.

    Example
    I do not like another person. But I have a value that says I should like everyone. So I project onto them that they do not like me. This allows me to avoid them and also to handle my own feelings of dislike.

    An unfaithful husband suspects his wife of infidelity.

    A woman who is attracted to a fellow worker accuses the person of sexual advances.

    What upsets the radicals is the fact that the left’s little “secret” coup to take over the American culture and society is not secret. The American people have seen what they are up to, and are rising up to stop them. When faced with facts and logic, they can only attack emotionally. There isn’t any real difference between nazism and marxist/socialism. To the average citizen, it’s all the same. Those “elites” in government can call themselves anything they want; they’re still people would want total control and power.

Rush is one conservative that will not stand for the liberal radicals pointing fingers by giving them a taste of their medicine. Anyone who questions the hypocrisy of the liberal left is one of the uninformed democratic sheep. Speaking of sidetrack, the liberals are masters at trying to take our mind off important socialist matters by demonizing anyone who disagrees with them. The sooner we can rid our country of liberalism/socialism the sooner we can get back to the freedom to live our lives as we see fit.

The same is true for the video of Obama wanting a one-payer government run health care video, etc. The DNC does not want people to know the truth. Run up the emotion flag in an attempt to confuse and muddy up the water. Their strategy is getting worn out.

Of course, what is left by the time the immoral left and their media puppets get done, is the retort; not what antagonized it. More demagoguery by the lying left, who so aptly count on the zombie like obedience of the puppet media, and of course the single digit IQ’s of their ignorant constituents. God, this gets old.

    “Broward Republican Party Chairman Chip LaMarca, who attended Wednesday’s protest, said the public also expects to see their lawmakers in person.”

    If Republicans want to benefit from the townhall and Tea Party protests, they should stay away from them. If you haven’t followed the Steele/Crist debacle in Florida, get up to speed. Florida is a RINO state and getting worse.

    Republicans are NOT our friends. They should be focusing purging their party starting from the top: Michael Steele.
    They controlled everything in Washington for six years and not only failed to shrink government, they added a new entitlement (Medicare drug benefit) and a massive unfunded state spending mandate (No Child Left Behind). They also started the amnesty and bailout messes.

    Are you new to the planet? Just got here? Even ABC (All Barack Channell) News is finally reporting the grassroots conservative protests for what it is these days. When will the parties and other partisans wake up to the reality? Maybe in November 2010 when conservatives of all stripes win more seats behind Sarah Palin’s non-partisan conservative push? I think so!!!

    Well…then you certainly must have derailed the Sotomayor nomination, right?

    No?

    Well then health care reform must be dead in its tracks. I am certain of it.

    Wait…IT’S NOT??!!

    Also, last I heard, Cash for Clunkers is getting another 2 billion. We still bailed out GM and stem cell restrictions have been lifted.

    Please honestly tell me where you think you guys have won in the past few months. Don’t tell me where you think you might win in the future. I can look at the New York Post to find out which horse they THINK will win each race, but that doesn’t so much matter until it’s actually run, now does it?

    They send me fund raising letters too. I entered that contest they had to come up with the text for a billboard somewhere in the vicinity of Rush Limbaugh. I didn’t win for some reason, but, as predicted, they used the entries to fill their contact lists. They’re pretty funny sometimes, and rather shrill of late.

    For the record my suggestion for the billboard was “I defend your right to say it.”

    Democrats used to believe in that. Guess I’m showing my age.

    Read MM’s book the Case for Internment and she spells out very clearly the reason why FDR interred thousands of American citizens-the Nisei and the Nikkei based on intelligence reports.

    This analogy isn’t approbiate for this situation; now the KKK and voter intimiation of the 1950′s & 60′s, now thats approbiate in light of the NBPP behavior during the 2008 election and the thug tactics of the unions today.

    A real uniter and peace maker hey?

    “believed that it was the duty of the people to serve the state. that is what obama is doing, that is what the democrats are supporting.”

    Yes but that is not new with Obama. He is doing it more openly and with enough intensity that we the people are seeing it but the transition from the government is of the people and is an extension of the people has been dead a long time. The transition to the government is all things and we the people exist and have lives because we have been granted such by the government started some time ago, maybe even before FDR, and as a philosophy has been carried out by both parties. The Republicans certainly of late can only say they were Democrat or Socialist “lite”.

    So while your statement is mostly true, I would argue that anything about what Obama is doing is new. In fact you could make the argument that Obama having a shot to be President is the political by-product of years of his philosophy come to fruition.

    This is why the task ahead is to elect conservatives starting from you local dog catcher to our local state legislators, Congress folks and President. Its not just chopping off these socialist here or there politically that will change our course. It is a conservatives getting back in the game at every level.

    Interestingly or ironically Obama could be credited with doing that very thing. Maybe health care is a Pearl Harbor moment for we conservatives?

    Many progressive Democrats are descendants of the New Left of Democratic presidential candidate Senator George McGovern of South Dakota; others were involved in the presidential candidacies of Vermont Governor Howard Dean and U.S. Representative Dennis Kucinich of Ohio; still others are disaffected former members of the Green Party.[citation needed] The Congressional Progressive Caucus (CPC) is a caucus of progressive Democrats, and is the single largest Democratic caucus in the House of Representatives. Its members have included Dennis Kucinich of Ohio, John Conyers of Michigan, Jim McDermott of Washington, John Lewis of Georgia, Barbara Lee of California, the late Senator Paul Wellstone of Minnesota, and Sherrod Brown of Ohio, now a Senator.

    So there are about 80 progressives in the house PROGRESSIVES NOT LIBERALS the difference Progressives WILL vote SOCIALIST. Progressives don’t like to be called Liberal. These are the NEW LEFT…but they are not that New anymore.

    Why do people think there has been Blue on Blue Attacks recently in the news Progressives attacking Blue Dogs? A Progressive is the polar opposite of a Blue Dog Democrat. This is who is in POWER of the Democrat Party right now. They need to go they are bankrupting this country.

    I have to agree with Rush that we cannot deceive ourselves into thinking that such fascist, thug tactics as the Democrat Party are using are simply not possible in this country; that the history of humanity is a history of dictatorship, dominated by violence and torture by the people wanting to control others. The Democrat Party is just the latest group trying to control the United States of America rather than living by the tenets laid out by our forefathers in the Constitution.

    It is as if these “Progressives” are so intent on dividing the country up polarizing everyone, they can’t see they are building their own opposition and the Opposition from looks of Tea Partys and Townhall meetings is ROBUST.

    They shove legislation through under the guise of it’s for your own good…but it isn’t. The legislation is their way of consolidating central power (for their own good) and it is in the link I provided from wikipedia on Progressivism or the New Left it isn’t that New it was born in the 60s and 70s…that’s why so many of the radicals showed up when Obama was campaigning and now some are his Czars.

    Exactly. As opposed to the commenters here, who are defending someone who correctly pointed out that a high-ranking Democrat made a thus-far unsubstantiated accusation that the people attending these townhall meetings were displaying swastikas, and in doing so calling them Nazis.

    The Democrats (liberals in particular) are far closer to agreeing with Nazi philosophy than any conservatives (or the American populace, for that matter).

    Standing up against something as destructive as what these liberals are trying to do does not make one a Nazi. Quite the contrary, it is a stance against the kinds of things the Nazis stood for.

    Sorry about beating you over the head with it, but it isn’t even legal for the government to do the meddling in heathcare that it’s already been doing, let alone expanding its role in the same.

    So, for standing up against one of the biggest intrusions into American freedom, Democrats call the American people Nazis, Rush defends the people, and then he and those with whom he agrees are excoriated by the Left.
