Watch Breitbart.TV's latest newscast. Notice CNN Don Lemon's interview with Obamabot Tim Wise. At around 10:40 Tim Wise is pointing at the People Cube's parody poster "Yes We Can" with Hitler's face as an illustration of how health care protesters are portraying Obama as a "racial fascist."
For the record, that parody was posted on 4/19/2008 - exactly 16 months(!) ago, long before the elections, before the health care debate - at the time when Obamamania was only gaining strength. This picture was a social commentary on the fact that mass adoration of a charismatic leader already happened before, with similar hysterical chants and slogans that seemingly empowered "the masses" but in fact only empowered the state to take control over people's lives; we know how that ended.
"All within the state, nothing outside the state, nothing against the state." That was Mussolini's quote Not many people will recognize Benito Mussolini's face, though. But Hitler shared the same statist, collectivist views, he came to power in a democratic election on a wave of massive adoration, he was portrayed romantically on propagandistic posters, and his face was instantly recognizable. He was a logical choice.

Today's American protesters, who defend individual liberties from the encroaching government dictate, represent the opposite of the collectivist fascist ideology; describing them as fascists betrays a glaring ignorance of history and of this very country and its people. On their part, however, the anti-Obama protesters have all the right to lump collectivist ideologies together to illustrate their opposition and disdain for them - be it fascism, communism, or any other heresy of a totalitarian socialist utopia, no matter how collectivist zealots are trying to split hairs in order to distinguish one failed ideology from another failed ideology.
