Boy, Rep. Randy Weber (R-Texas) is a true diplomat. "I know," he thought. "I'll compare the two-term President of the U.S. to the most reviled figure in history."
But the best part was Weber's subsequent apology:
"It was not my intention to trivialize the Holocaust nor to compare the President to Adolf Hitler."
What?! That's exactly what you DID!
"I now realize that the use of Hitler invokes pain and emotional trauma for those affected by the atrocities of the Holocaust and victims of anti-Semitism and hate."
This gentleman is a true know-nothing if he just NOW realizes the Holocaust is a painful memory for people. But of course, he was already in possession of that knowledge—but like a good GOP politician, he just didn't care.
"Even Adolph [sic] Hitler thought it more important
than Obama to get to Paris. (For all the wrong reasons.) Obama couldn't do it
for right reasons."
