Rep Power: 127208 | Right Wing Conference Calls People To Arms Right-Wing Conference Tells Activists To Get Their Guns Ready For ‘Bloody Battle’ With Obama The Nazi At the How To Take Back America Conference last weekend, conservative speaker Kitty Werthmann led a workshop called “How to recognize living under Nazis & Communists.” Announcing the panel in a column preceding the conference, talk show host Janet Porter gushed how Werthmann’s description of Austria in the 1930s is a “mirror to America” today — noting “They had Joseph Goebbels; we have Mark Lloyd, the diversity czar.” The room was packed over capacity to hear Werthmann, who grew up as a Christian in Austria and serves as Phyllis Schlafly’s Eagle Forum South Dakota President. During her session, Werthmann went through a litany of examples of how President Obama is like Adolf Hitler. She noted that Hitler, who acted “like an American politician,” was “elected in a 100% Christian nation.” Although she failed to once mention Antisemitism or militarism, Werthmann explained how universal healthcare, an Equal Rights Amendment, and increased taxes were telltale signs of Nazism. Werthmann also warned the audience: If we had our guns, we would have fought a bloody battle. So, keep your guns, and buy more guns, and buy ammunition. [...] Take back America. Don’t let them take the country into Socialism. And I refer again, Hitler’s party was National Socialism. [...] And that’s what we are having here right now, which is bordering on Marxism. Watch it: Werthmann noted that her Nazism speech is gaining popularity. She not only has delivered it to several tea parties, but has been asked by “a group of bankers” to address them this month. Before the event, ThinkProgress asked Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-MN), one of several Republican members of Congress also speaking at the conference, to autograph Werthmann’s DVD about National Socialism. She happily obliged: Found this @ thinkprogress.org. Guess I have to race the lonneys to the gun store to buy ammo. It is a little shocking that actual members of Congress would be seen hobnobbing with the nuts. It's crap like this that leads some unstable people to act out. |

not going to lay down and take it the way the blue states did with Bush. Let's see now -- we have the first ever black president and he's working towards universal health care. If that's not going to make the right wing nuts go ballistic, then I don't know what is. | |

Just kiddin'. I'm a nutcase and I'm proud of it! LOL No really, back to BB's original post- I totally love how this is a 100% Christian Nation! That means you and I don't exist BB, or at the very least, we're not American. But then again, neither are any of the Jews in Congress, then, right? | |

Thats completely ignorant of you to try to deflect or minimize this reporting of fact. The conference referenced was not taken out of context, it actually occured. There is a video of the lady spewing out her bullshit/hate on the referenced page. It is NOT an opinion piece, or speculation. Think Progress is a blog yes, and they report on wacked-out crazies like these people who brazenly pander to peoples fears in an attempt to muddy the waters. They want to take Obama down, and do it dishonestly. Thats not patriotic, thats greed! | |
