Obama Addresses Hitler Reference on Health Debate at Black Caucus Conference
Obama's remarks about Nazi leader Adolf Hitler referred to signs some people have waved outside of often testy town hall meetings around the country this summer where lawmakers discussed changing health care.

President Obama delivers his remarks at the Congressional Black Caucus Foundation’s Annual Phoenix Awards dinner.
WASHINGTON -- President Obama on Saturday resumed his push to overhaul the health care system, telling a Congressional Black Caucus conference that there comes a time when "the cup of endurance runs over."
"We have been waiting for health reform since the days of Teddy Roosevelt. We've been waiting since the days of Harry Truman," he said in remarks at the caucus foundation's annual dinner. "We've been waiting since Johnson and Nixon and Clinton."
"We cannot wait any longer," Obama said.
Obama spent the past week largely focused on global and economic issues in meetings with world leaders in New York and Pittsburgh.
At the G-20 economic summit that wrapped up Friday in Pennsylvania, Obama told a story about an unnamed foreign leader who privately told the president he didn't understand the at-times contentious debate over changing the health care system.
"He says, 'We don't understand it. You're trying to make sure everybody has health care and they're putting a Hitler mustache on you. That doesn't make sense to me,"' Obama said, quoting the world leader he declined to identify.
The reference to Nazi leader Adolf Hitler was to signs some people have waved outside of often testy town hall meetings around the country this summer where lawmakers discussed Obama's health care plan.

Does he address those signs came from followers of lyndon la rouche?
Please go there, fool! I double dare you...
How old is BO anyway?
Everything about O’Bummer is amateurish. Just a juvenile when all is said and done!
How would it play if any white President went to the “White blah, blah, conference, meeting...etc.
Call me sick to death of the double standard of leftists and people of “color”.
“Zero says, ‘We don’t understand it. You’re trying to make sure everybody has health care and they’re putting a Hitler mustache on you.”
Hey, Zero! If the mustache fits, wear it.
That would be the National Democrat and convicted felon, Lyndon La Rouche.
Of course not- he got an assist from the left-wing media (CNN) who spun this as coming from conservatives and republicans and tea party protesters.
‘They don’t want me to be on the right, this is the CBC’-—————RAAAACCCIIIST
Gawd what an idiot.
I do not make this statement lightly: I think he is about to lose it.
Now keep in mind why Beck said McCain would have been worse than Obama...McCain’s hero is Teddy Roosevelt !!!!!
“Well, d’oh, that’s because EVERYONE who opposes Obama’s policies are uber-racist, black-hating, white supremacist, redneck, card carrying Republican conservative Christian extremist Nazis, I saw the signs myself!! Hundreds of them!! No, thousands, no, HUNDREDS of thousands of Nazi signs and offensive racist graphic pictures of our holy President and Dear Leader, portraying his beautiful beneficent face as Hitler!!! The nerve of those tea bagging town halling un-American people!!”
/Nancy Pelosi off
So does he feel the same way about not understanding why they did that to pictures of President Bush or is that okay to him.
The double standards are just amazing. I saw alittle of his interruption to Glen Beck and he made comments about not wanting to be on the “right” ha ha ha I am not laughing.
I say put on your big girl panties and deal with it they did the same to President Bush and I didn’t hear him complain about he just probably thought the people doing that were fools.
Was thinking exactly the same thing..
What doesn't make sense is this “trying to give healthcare to everyone”. Everyone already has access to healthcare if they need it whether they're rich, poor, insurance or no insurance.
Obama, you can run to the black caucus and try to hide, try to polarize America, but we will get rid of you and your Juta.You are not an American.
Truth to tell you are not even a blackman. You are half white and half Arab. You are not fooling the black caucus at all. They know you are not one of them.They know you want to enslave America , if anyone does.
Hey Obama, you are the closest to Adolf Hitler then I have ever seen.
I can wait until hell freezes over for communism to come to America.
He lies no one said this to him!
