WAY Over The Top!

The North Iowa Tea Party recently posted a billboard that compares President Obama to the likes of Hitler & Lenin.  My personal, humble opinion…WAY OVER THE TOP!

While we are all entitled to our opinion, this may have crossed the line.  The leader of the Tea Party said, “It’s a statement on his policy,” and insists that it isn’t disrespectful to the President.  I beg to differ.  To put the President’s picture next to the picture of someone who orchestrated the mass murder of millions IS disrespectful! You might as well have put his picture next to that of Jeffery Dahmer or Ted Bundy!  While you’re at it, throw up pictures of Osama Bin Laden & Sadam Hussein. 

I may not agree with President Obama and I may not have voted for him and I may want him out of office and I may be against some of his policies…I would not compare him to a mass murderer!!

The group maintains that it’s merely about his policies, but I don’t think there is anyone who can argue the fact that the general public who is driving down the road and seeing the billboard will say to themselves, “Damn!  He got compared to Hitler!” and not think twice about policies!  If you have a problem with his policies, I’m sure there is a much more tact-filled way to get your point across!
