GOP Tweets clip of Hitler praising Pelosi UPDATE

Hitler hearts Pelosi?

That seems to be a view the National Republican Congressional Committee seems to be endorsing, judging from what the committee posts on their Twitter account.

On Tuesday morning, as the Senate Finance Committee prepared to vote on the Baucus bill, someone at the NRCC posted a bizarre Tweet linking to an altered three-minute section of the 2004 Hitler biopic "Der Untergang" from the conservative site Moonbattery -- with a voice-over of the The Fuhrer ranting about how only Nancy Pelosi shares his vision of health care reform.

The Tweet: "Funny Video: Moonbattery: Hitler Reacts to ObamaCare Maneuvers"

Hitler, played by Swiss actor Bruno Ganz, is trapped in his bunker with his generals, and rants about President Obama's revisions to his socialized medicine plan -- and how only he and Nancy Pelosi are still fighting the good fight.

"What the hell are the Democrats doing?" Hitler screams. "At least I have Pelosi on my side. What's wrong with them?... I socialized medicine overnight and everything's going great... Like Pelosi, I don't give a s**t about the American people."

1. Despicable
Typically, these GOP idiots are overplaying their hand. That's why they keep losing.

3. Why don't they make up a fake clip of Hitler praising another Democrat, Franklin D. Roosevelt
to give us a good laugh and to demonstrate what experts they are on history and what the Nazis were really all about.

4. Do they not know they are on the same side of the political spectrum as Nazis?
Or do they just not care. Socialism has nothing to do with Nazism, other than the highjacked term used by U.S. neo-Nazis to name their party.

5. Yeah, amazing they don't get that. In fact, why don't Dems run ads that
say "Adolf loved the single-payer system!" Maybe some knuckle-draggers would start supporting it.
