First Pelosi says that town hall protestors are carrying swastikas, now town hall protetors aren't average citizens, they are extremist brown shirt Republicans, forgetting purposefully that town hall meetings are being filled with Democrats, Independents and Republicans who don't like ObamaCare at all.

In the end, he is calling town hall protestors nazis, for that is what the brown shirts were.

He can try to worm his way out of this, but we all know what “Brown Shirt” means and/or stands for.

Funny, the citizens he’s afraid of facing have a similar fear ... we’re afraid of the (national) socialists, like him, who have taken over our government.

there was another thread entitled, "accuse your victims of what you're doing to them" or something like that.

On that principle, it's clear who using subscribing to the nazi playbook with regard to abuse of power.

What a craven little chicken s**t. And I don't use that phrase lightly. The writer ended with an awesome zinger:

In the absence of a public town hall, Baird’s pitch-fork toting, NASCAR loving, civil debate hating, Nazi constituents can reach the Congressman’s D.C. office by phone at (202) 225-3536.

The Brown Shirts were also run by a Homosexual, and a great man of the Brown Shirts were, in fact, “butch” Homosexual men.

I can’t believe the cowardice of these people. If they just showed up and took their medicine it would be better than hiding like cowards.

The contempt for We the People grows daily by democRATs. THEY are the ones who see us as the enemy. We are but constituants looking to share grievances with our "ELECTED" representatives. The dems look down their noses at us, mock us, are condescending toward us, call us a "mob", brown shirts, Nazis, and thugs.

All because we want our government to be more responsive to those who PAY THEIR SALERY with our taxes.

They are NOT our LEADERS but are supposed to be our REPRESENTATIVES.

If they cease to represent then it is time for the citizens to call a special election and have them removed from office.

Enough already. They should go NOW. The sooner the better.

“In the end, he is calling town hall protestors nazis”

I can’t wait to see the polling data on this.

We should take up a collection and send a thank you card to whoever came up with this strategy.

Baird is using the old lefty jibe of callinng others what he is in fact: A Nationalist Socialist, member of a nationalist socialist party that is no longer a "Democrat" party.

Read Jonah Goldberg's book: " Liberal Fascism: The Secret History of America's Left, From Mussolini to the Politics of Meaning"

Obama, Baird, all of them, are "liberal fascists, bent on ramming a totalitarian Utopia down the throats of America. Now America is waking up , protesting, and they call we patriots, "nazis?"

THEY ARE THE NAZIS!!!

What will they call us when we begin civil disobedience?
