WASHINGTON (CNN) - The National Republican Congressional Committee has removed a tweet Tuesday that linked to a video comparing House Speaker Nancy Pelosi with Adolf Hitler.
The tweet, sent out Tuesday morning on their official Twitter account, read: "Funny Video: Moonbattery: Hitler Reacts to ObamaCare Maneuvers http://bit.ly/2mOvZ7 #Pelosi". It comes the same day the NRCC released a petition on their site to "Fire Nancy Pelosi."
The tweet immediately drew strong criticism from the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee. "House Republicans have gone way too far. The NRCC's despicable promotion of a video comparing Speaker Pelosi's effort to reform health insurance in America to Adolf Hitler's extermination of millions is a shocking new low that must be condemned," said DCCC spokeswoman Jennifer Crider. "Republican Leader John Boehner should order NRCC Chairman Pete Sessions to immediately remove this vile Tweet and apologize."
NRCC spokesman John Randall said Tuesday the group had made a mistake. "We obviously made an error in linking to this video and it has been taken down," said Randall.
This tweet comes on the heels of a controversial NRCC statement last week that called on Gen. Stanley McChrystal to "put [Pelosi] in her place" on the topic of Afghanistan.

Oh, I never knew they did that...
Nancy Pelosi is Hitler?
How many millions of Jews, Gypsies and other people did Pelosi kill?
How many lives did the war Pelosi started cause?
In fact, the GOP is the party of Hitler: Tell a big lie, repeat it often, and many people will believe it.
The NRCC is thoroughly insulting. Time and time again. Recently wanting to put the first woman Speaker "IN HER PLACE" and now this.
The NRCC should apologize publicly IMMEDIATELY. Disgusting.
America, we can do better than this "funny video." The Republican Party is truly the worst of America.
The GOP is pathetic!
How sick can one party get? I guess when you can't offer anything to help the middle and indigent people of this country, you'll resort to anything! These creeps suck!
Pelosi is not organzied enough to be Hitler. Please. Now Dick Cheney? Rush? Coulter? Hitler would join in for four part harmony if he could. Wait. Rush is too fat to goose step. Sorry.
what is this obsession that the Republicans have with Adolph Hitler? First it was Obama now Pelosi. It's pretty scary if you ask me.
Pelosi is extreme. Pelosi is a liar. Pelosi is mean at times. Her policies are wrong, her personality grading. She needs to be voted out of office so we can have a more reasonable moderate person lead the House...
But she's not evil and she's not as awful as Hitler. Both sides need to stop using these unfair comparisons to Hitler. Focus on the issues in debate not the personal attacks.
This is hetting rediculous. The Republicans have gone to lows that I could have never imagined. Losing hurts, but losing yourself in the process is the real shame.
Yeah, they made a mistake all right. They showed their true colors, again.
Its the truth Pelosi equals Hitler, SO THE TRUTH HURTS.
This is disgusting. It's one thing to see this from the fringe lunatics at town hall meetings, but from the NRCC? There has to be repercussions for this, it's unacceptable.
A Buck Private fresh out of Paris Island know more about how to win a war than Pelosi, Reid and Obama together do! Politicians may have the cahrisma of Hitler but even th worst are not near as evil as Hitler ever was. But I do remember a certain party and its followers who had no problem equating President Bush to Hitler on signs and speeches! Hypocrits!
Boy when the Republicans have nothing else to say about someone or if they disagree with someone they call them Hitler........give us a break will ya.......were tired of your negative complaining and back stabbing.......grow up GOP your showing how really childish you are
You made a mistake, after thousands of people have seen it., right!!!! And you wonder why people don't trust your party? Wht you did was stupid, cruel, deceitful and very republican!
Wow, the Dems sure are hypocrites.
It's okay for Pelosi to intimate that conservatives are Nazis. It's okay for various other elected Democrats to call conservatives thugs, a mob, insult us by referring to us with a term describing a sexual activity... but when on-elected Republicans call a Democrat something that you libs routinely called Bush, you have a hissy fit.
Does not suprise me.
Yeah, the usual bully tactics of the GOP. When are you schoolyard loudmouths going to grow up and try to be helpful? That is simply pathetic on all fronts. And you wonder why your "brand" needs updating. Imagine if someone had painted a little black moustache on GWB – oh, the outrage would've shaken the airwaves for weeks. But it is ok for you to do it. You are always right, right? And I mean right side of the aisle, not "correct".
Pinheads.
Do they really think that suppressing the 'freedom of speech' will may Pelosi a better person in the eyes of the American taxpayer? Of course it won't, but then again, these people only want to look good. If she wants to stop this type of comparison she should listen to the criticism and change her ways! Oh, I forgot, they are politicians. All mouth and no ears, no brains, no common sense!
Just to repeat myself and others. The republicans are a party of fear/hate/obstructionism.
People do not let this party ever get back into power. Never.
Being a life long Republican I want to state that our current National Republican Committee as well as most of our so-called leadership makes me want to vomit. I am SO SICK OF THIS CRAP!!!! It's time to grow up.... YOU ARE NOT CHILDREN!!!!!
I do not understand the conservative Republican fascination with calling people Hitler it seems to be ingrained in their brain most call the Democratic president and congressional leaders socialist you can't be a socialist and a fascist together as a woman can't be a little bit pregnant. Then a 73-year-old veteran of Korea and Vietnam I just can't understand all these warmongers who never were in uniform and probably never will be wanted to fight every one as long as they never have to go what do you expect from redneck crackers
Even tough neither Hitler or Socialism are in any way historically connected to US politics today, West Virginians and the Tea Party believers buy into it. Rush, Sean... you must be SO proud.
Unfortunately, when you build an atmosphere of hate and anger you may find things get out of hand. This nastiness within our political system has to stop. May we all remember "do unto others...."
Best part? This is another battle with irony that the GOP has lost: if anything is actually analogous to Hitler's wanton destruction of life in pursuit of a sadistic goal, it's the insurance industry's reckless, selfishly randian, greed-inspired scrabbling for increasing profits at the expense of the very public it is supposed to serve...MONEY OVER LIFE...and the GOP's goering-esque sideshow in support of it.
The Republican party compares anyone who disagrees with them (the lunatic fringe) to Hitler. It's become as laughably predictable as it is disgusting and contemptuous.
And to think I was a registered Republican for my first 15 or so voting years......what a disgrace they've become.
We may have to make our own comparison of the whole GOP and the insurance trade group with hungry vultures.
Ever noticed how much the Repukes use Hitler. He must be their hero or something.
Wait a minute....
The Bush Administration passes laws that would hint at laws passed in Germany in the 1930's, and the GOP has the unmitigated gall to compare Pelosi to Hitler?? Do these people have no sense of history?
How many of these idiots are in Washington? Everyone with the GOP?
Most Americans are beginning to believe that the current Republican base is now made up of Hillbillies. All all of these comparisons to Hitler ect. Most, more than likely do not even understand what he really did.
They are not apologizing that it was written, just that it was caught. The Congressional repubs are really stoking the fire. I wonder what their real message is? Class war, Assasination?? Who knows. The scorched earth policy was no good when they started it and it has only torn America apart. But this does not stop them. This goes for liz chaney and her daddy too.
A MISTAKE???? How can anyone with any tech knowledge make a mistake in this manner????
Another example of the fine work that the Republicans are doing to move America forward. Sheesh! When will these clowns be out of business? The answer: when there are fewer ignorant wing-nuts in America.
Seems the closest person in the USA whose actions resembled Hitler would be Mr. Torture Patriot Act Bush.
Comparing Pelosi to Hitler is unfair to Hitler. While he was a monster, he was nowhere near as sneaky and shifty as Pelosi.
These unbelievable GOPers decry when someone calls out "this" holocaust on our nation for lack of proper health care, yet the same NRCC hypocrites turn around with their deplorable gimmick by including Hitler, which is an actual reference to "THE" Holocaust. Reprehensible, disgusting and pathetic.
These people are the scum of the earth! I think we ought to bring back tarring & feathering for these anti-American low lifes!
Hey, our Democratic Socialist Party supports nationalizing health care. So did the National Socialist Party.... why is the comparison wrong?
This wouldn't be the same group of people that gave Alan Grayson trouble for using the word holocaust inappropriately, would it?
Don't we have enough problems with our youth in America that we have to add to the mess the entire Republican Party and all of its branches?????
The Republican party is too late to come to realize that sitting back and watching the hateful rhetoric coming out of the mouths of their supporters right back to the earliest of the Palin rallies will beconme a huge political albatross as it is exposed more and more. Now thewy can be accused denying someone of their "free speech".
They were silent thinking it would hepl them tossing integrity out the window for political expediency; now it is coming back to bite them.
Wait a second I am confused. Socialism is a moderate form of Liberalism but it still strays farther left than our current Democratic Party.
Communism is extreme Liberalism where by theory everyone is equal.
Facism is extreme conservatism where as the ruler deems that he is destined to rule. Absolute Monarchies almost fall into this category with the association of Divine right. Rights and freedoms to an ultra conservative are dangerous.
So which one is it? Are they More Liberal than we have seen (still moderate on the Political scale) in Socialist? Or are they extremely conservative to the point where no one has rights or privledges because it is dangerous to those in power? (Facism).
Please get your ideologies straight before comparing Obama or Pelosi to Hitler. Too many different ideologies there.
Are the republicans so stupid as to do this? What a shallow bunch.
The Republicans "NO-MACHINE" works as a "HATE-MACHINE" also,
against women, against black people, against Democrats, etc...
So narrowed minded politicians, so full of hate, out of touch , limbaugh
style, corrupt, buying media, the worst of America.
They criticize the President for whatever he does, wherever he goes,
for,example, Michael Reese, don't you know what is the Nobel prize,
its significance, why are you talking about jobs... in its context ?
Put some knowledge in your brain!
Why is anyone shocked? This is indicative of the current political situation in Washington. Can you say Rome near the end? It used to be that being a Senator or Congressperson involved respect and admiration for the other side. But now, both sides have taken the low-blows and dirty shots to a new level. Comparing anyone to Hitler is bad. The man was the epitome of evil. And that goes for the Dems as well. Was Bush a good POTUS? Not really. Will Obama be a good one? Who knows. None of us can see the future. But, if we continue to let hate and vitriol dictate our politics, we will certainly be doomed as a nation.
Republican party is like a fat pig! which ones you slaughter it, has enough fat (oil) to roast itself!
3,000 lives on 9/11 justified 4,300 more American lives lost, tens or hundreds of thousands of Iraqi lives lost, destruction of an entire country's infrastructure and spending a trillion dollars.
At 45,000 lives lost per year to treatable disease and trauma as a result of underinsurance of complete lack of insurance, we've lost 360,000 lives since 9/11, but the GOP doesn't want to spend a nickle on it. Why?
You do the math.
Don't care.
Republicans are in such minorities that Republicans can vote party line against ANY Democrat initiative and STILL not stop it.
Republicans don't even matter.
It is the socialist party that fails to get anything accomplished... which, ironically, speaks volumes about socialism itself... it succeeds at nothing. The only thing it spreads equally among the people is misery.
I urge EVERY Democrat to make sure that they vote in every single election that is coming up to make sure that NO Republicans get elected – I mean these guys are just too much. Do you really want to go back to what we just had for 8 years??? Please vote Democrats!!!
How many of you liberal hypocrites complained when Bush was compared to Hitler? Anyone? Anyone?
Pelosi is a little Hitler, what's with all the uproar.
I'm disgusted with the leaders of both parties.
Leaders of the free world? No. Just the kindergarten playground. Time for snacks and nap or at the very least a very long time-out!
Ensuring that everyone in America have the right to proper healthcare is just like Hitler?
Ladies and Gentleman, the logic behind the Republican party!
Pelosi is the most evil person in America!
We will definitely put "La Pelosi" in her place in 2010 or in 2012!!!
So how nice racists GOP. GOP is party of Nazis. I personally hate them.
I am just sick of division created and promoted by the GOP. It is no longer what party platform that you support. It is moved into a radical mode. I was part of the GOP for 35 years and left last year when the GOP no longer accepted those in the center. This summer the GOP ratched up the whole screaming and divisive issue of health care. Please GOP just stop! You are losing members left and right!
Actually the NAZI PARTY was a socialist party, that is where the word NAZI comes from, look it up. The socialists party in the U.S. is the Democrat Party so they weren't that far off the mark.
The GOP is a sinking ship and they are grasping at straws to try and keep the really really stupid on board. They are increasingly shrill and nonsensical. They are trying to diminish President Obama, but they themselves have become the joke.
I always thought that the way Bush capitalized on American’s anger after the 9-11 attacks to use it as a pretext to go to war with Iraq was very Hitler like; but Pelosi, Hitler like – not even slightly. Pelosi is simply not effective enough to be any where Hitler like, but she is a good person with solid values, and her moral compass is pointed in the right direction, unlike any single Republican that I can think of.
Tsk. Where would the Republicants be without Hitler. Half their political strategy would be down the drain. Rush Limburger would actually have to apply brain power beyond that of a grade school name caller. The Republicant party should owe someone royalty fees to someone for their egregious use of Hitler to promote their platform.
Bottom feeders. Absolutely no class, nothing to offer. They make offensive their mantra.
It is an apt comparison. Liberals believe that fascism is different from liberalism, but the two are identical in the sense that they seek to take away the freedoms of people and grant absolute power to the government. It is no surprise that Hitler belonged to the Socialist Workers Party. Notice how the Democrats also align themselves with the unions (workers).
Republicans are the party of NO ideas and certainly NO class.
Because it is ridiculous. Next insensitive over-the-top, outlandish NeoCon character defamation, please.
Ummmm, nope. don't really see what the issue is.
Pelosi = sweet mama Adolf
It's wrong because Hitler murdered six mililion Jewish people. And, the NeoCons are using that human tragedy to move forward their own agenda and character bash a member of the opposing party at the same time. Such events as an attempt to exterminate an entire people should not be used lightly.
The Republican leadership continues to be desperate. I am just disgusted that their members don't have the balls to stand up for what's right.
Typical Repubs......get caught and "it was a mistake"
they are the lowest form of pond scum
GOP......why are they relavent? The dems can have any legislation they want for any reason at any time! Why are the Repubs even an issue? Why is Pelosi even compared to this man. She's trying to run an upfront honest candid government and has never stooped to such name calling! You'd think she was in the Bush admin and this was 2003! Maybe partisan tactics against the sitting admin have gone a bit too far. No one ever treated Bush and company this way. Right? Remember? Why is all this smoke coming from under my chair? My tummy hurts!
I hope their children are listening and watching these crazy right-wing nutjobs. I hope their children pull some of their pranks. I hope their children go to prison for all they do.
The "family values" group sure is setting a good example for their kids – hate, fear, lies.
In regards to the House and Senate, we need more people (with common sense, I might add),that will make decisions that are good for our great country.
The problem, as I see it, is that a 'chosen few' make decisions that are not using real common sense. They base their decisions on their part of our nation, which is not necessarily the best for everyone.
Let's face it, not all the people in politics from all parties have good common sense.
Is there any lower the GOP can go? Desperation?
this is exactly why for 8 years of bush i stayed a democrat....republican party is a joke...nothing to offer...no answers...no facts ...just a bunch of made up lies and crap...go home GOP....wherever that might be...because none of you are AMERICANS....you are pathetic !
It's a rather appropriate comparison. Ever listen to her talk very closely. The health bill WILL pass before the break! The health bill WILL have the public option! The CIA are liars!
Why does it go too far? Congressman "Nobody" keeps parroting a comment that the Republican health care plan is to "have you die quickly." I assume he keeps forgetting about the lib's support of abortion where "you die very, very quickly."
"a good rule in most discussions is that the first person to call the other a Nazi automatically loses the argument." The Economist, 8/16/2007
The Democrats had no problems when President Bush was compared to Hitler. Democrats, how does it feel when people return the statement to you?
The GOP absolutely LOVE Hitler and it is obvious. The democratic party is no way another Nazi party and thinking it is ridiculous, if you are good with history. Too bad no education exists in the poor Southern states where conservatives infect America.
The Republican party and Republican voters (some represented in this comments section) continue to disgust me. I will never, repeat never, vote for a Republican as long as they continue to pander to these people and their ideals.
Are the people on both sides of the aisle ever grow up and act like the responsible people we though we had elected?
So much for freedom of speech in the USA... I don't think its cool to say such things, but I am a big proponent of free speech. Might as well say goodbye to our right to bear arms and defend ourselves as well. Won't be long...
"We made an error"?! What about an apology? This kind of thing only underlines what a fringe group of extremists Republicans have become.
It's worth considering what this says about one's perception of Hitler, not just Pelosi. This is a form of reducing the significance of the Holocaust as well as smearing Pelosi. I'm sure Jews everywhere can take comfort that the Republican Party thinks the extermination of 6 million of their people is some how comparable to a legislator writing a bill.
3,000 lives on 9/11 justified 4,300 more American lives lost, tens or hundreds of thousands of Iraqi lives lost (because the idiot GOPers fell for the rhetoric), destruction of an entire country's infrastructure and spending a trillion dollars.
At 45,000 lives lost per year to treatable disease and trauma as a result of underinsurance of complete lack of insurance, we've lost 360,000 lives since 9/11, but the GOP doesn't want to spend a nickle on it. Why?
You do the math.
Yeah I don't think Hitler would want to be comparred to Pelosi. Would you?
Wow really! Is it that bad GOP!
Hitler...no ! Fool...YES !
Can we please stop with the Hitler comparisons on both sides. ENOUGH!
There is NO LOW that the Republican party will not go
The PARTY OF NO ... has the mentality of Junior High School Bullies pulling a girls hair
Absolutely disgusting ...
Pelosi is not Hitler, but she is a "Nazi."
Wasn't it she who first used that term? Crazy lady with the facial botox injections needs to be run out of office.
The GOP has been pretty worthless since the Nixon years, but they have gotten worse of late. They sold their soul and not they are paying the price.
lol truth hurts. Didn't she start the hitler garbage? btw, in this world when someone invokes hitler, it's called a god-win and the conversation is over, being the person who invoked hitler loses. Both sides are guilty
The Republicans are bereft of ideas and dignity. They cheapen the Holocaust and it's victims to score cheap political points with the far right. It's shameful.
I believe that most people miss the point when Pelosi and/or Obama are referred to as Hitler. It seems to me that this is the lowest form of name calling that one can associate a politician to and is a direct comparision of the American way of earning your pay, paying for your families needs, etc. What the name calling is referring to is that Pelosi and Obama simply want to take more taxes and use them at their own discretion. It really has no bearing on helping others, but is meant to lower working class people towards the welfare state where so many people wallow through life with no ambitions.
Pelosi's not hitler! No mustache = not hitler!
When the conservatives do something like this, the radical liberals come out of the woodwork. But when a liberal does the same thing they are cheered for doing/saying something like this. Look at all
the laws that have been broken by liberals in congress and on
Obama's staff. Why aren't the violations investigated? They sure
don't waste any time starting investigations when a conservative
allegedly does something wrong.
The Republican Nazi Party should watch out about name calling.
The fact that this was "accidentally" released indicates that this kind of diminished moral and mental activity is actually going on in the adminstative levels of the republican party. They really are a JOKE!
How dare the Republican compair Pelosi to Hilter!!!! Many in my family are concentration camp surivors. I will NEVER vote for a Republican and will work as hard as I can to see another Republican voted into office. NRCC Chairman Pete Sessions should be fired!!!
Republicans are truly disgusting. May they reap exactly what they sow. Such cowards!
IS anyone surprise by this? Typical GOP propaganda of hate! And they will argue that they do not hate!
The Liberals may have criticized Bush's policies, but we never attacked him with........ hate.
The thing is, that the Republicans claim they are THE.......... Christians! I do not know what Gospels they are reading, but I know for sure, that Jesus did not preach....... "hate your enemies" NOR "attack those you disagree with!"
Their hatred of President Obama, and indeed ALL Democrats is downright......... evil.
Hitler killed millions of people, an atrocity which in no way compares to anything that Pelosi has done. The flippant use of the comparison is an insult to the MILLIONS of people that died, their families, and to all of the people who have been subjected to violence or intimidation at the hands of hate groups who use Nazi symbolism.
By using fear, exaggeration, and the symbolism of hate groups everywhere, they are only enforcing the idea that opponents of health care reform do not have actual facts to counter the proposed reform. The gross exaggeration is so classless, cheap, and unintelligent I think it says far more negative things about the Republican Party than it does the Pelosi.
Are you a Republican? Do you have a brain size of walnut and never in your life had an original thought in your head? No problem!
Just compare everyone you do not like either with Hitler or Stalin, they are fashionable now with GOP.
Let the sensationalism continue! Wow, I sure love my media sources and their ability to fire up message boarders who have no patience to use reason. The inability check out the actually source the article is based on is really encouraging. Let me be the first to say that this video is ALWAYS being redubbed. My favorites include Hitler complaining about USC football and Hitler loses his Xbox Live account. Word of advice to everyone: Take a deep breathe, and relax. This won't be the last thing about politics that will make you angry. Submitting to your anger just makes you look foolish.
Without a public option the health care plan has no teeth. Witness the shrill scare tactics by the insurance industry. The GOP health care plan is: "If you get sick, die quickly". Health care will pass in spite of the people hating republicans. So Pelosi is Hitler..hmmmm. then who is Bush and Cheney? Rumsfeld? Karl Rowe? A. Gonzales? The Myers lady? I could go on but I'll just waste electrons...The party of No is more irrelevant by the hour, I'm only glad its leader, Limbaugh, is going deaf, now if he could just lose his voice, that would be merciful.
Republican Leader John Boehner reminds me of a failed sheep herder. I've seen more leadership in stampede of lemmings. He's worthless to the party, but fits right in with the others. Go John, paint mustaches on pictures of people you don't like and apply the skills you learned in preschool.
"So which one is it? Are they More Liberal than we have seen (still moderate on the Political scale) in Socialist? Or are they extremely conservative to the point where no one has rights or privledges because it is dangerous to those in power? (Facism)."
Thank you Joe for clearing that up for those naive conservatives that like throw words until they stick. I am sure they wont believe you because Rush or Glen Beck didn't say it. We just had 7 years of Facism and we are still there (insurance company). We need to take our country back from the facist (rethuglicans)!
Disgusting tactics from the GOP.
As if anyone is confused who the neo nazi sympathizers are,if not the GOP. Any mouse city is their game and they play as well as any mice could.However becoming real men and ladies instead of animalistic radicals is a giant leap for them. A path too far and steep for their little mouse feet no doubt.I hold no animosity for them,only revulsion and pity for their sorry state of being!
Liberals are pathetic. Obama, Biden, Reid and Pelosi are all equally worthless. Literally FORCING their agendas like: "Buy our crappy health care plan or get fined or go to jail." I feel like I'm living under the 4th Reich.
These cry babies need to be sent to the Gulag and experience true torture and inhumane treatment, then let them see if they will compare a democratic country where, anything goes, with Hitler There would be no comparison from your cushy D.C. condo to the cold prison floors, have they no respect for what the Jews went through? Bunch of Limbaugh loving wimps. off with their heads!!!
These people are crazy, if some people one be compared to Hitler are the republicans. Are these people forgetting who are the racist that were against civil rights for blacks?, who are anti inmigrants specially against latinos?, who are anti gays?, who are in favor of the death penalty? Last time I check all that is related republicans. My God whom ever is comparing Pelosi or Reid to Hitler I think needs to do a reality check.
Republicans first it was our President you call Hitler, now it is Pelosi, Republicans you are only spreading lies,rumors,and name calling,you Republicans should apologize to the President and Nancy Pelosi this kind of low is disgusting and shamefull.--–For Liz Cheney where were you when your Father was making a Big MESS to our country you are disgusting.
This is out rageous! Hitler doesn't deserve this.
This is just a symptom of a party that is idea-challenged and out of touch with reality. With no answers of their own, and indeed being responsible for many of the things ailing the US, they can only resort to juvenile name calling, crude grandstanding, obstructionism and fearmongering. Sad. The whole R party needs to grow up, and rejoin the real world.
What IS it with the Republicans' fascination with Hitler, all of a sudden?
the Republicans continue to be complete idiots. How anyone can want to be near these so called leaders is beyond me.
The GOP has become an embarrassment to the legacy of Abraham Lincoln.
The republican know all about the nazi's since they have been acting like brown shirts for a long time now.
The republican party of today is as close to Hitler's Germany as it gets.
Okay, I don't get it. How come these guys and women, who pride themselves on right wing facist viewpoints, are militarily agressive, and have caused more civil liberty erosion, are so fast to call the President and Pelosi Hitler? Republicans created -Homeland(Fatherland), NSA (Secret Police) torture camps (enough said) Patriot act (no rights) Cheney (WOW!).
The Republican govt. used 911 as an excuse to erode the constitiutional rights of Americans.
Just stop with the Hitler stuff already, it sounds silly.
This comparing anyone who shares different views with you to Hitler is profoundly ignorant.
I didn't realize Nancy Pelosi is an aggresive facist that believes in racial superiority and the eradication of jews
Pelosi reminds me of Sally Fields when she starts talking I see a crazy person. That stupid smile doesn't help either. When she became Speaker of the House and brought all those kids to congress I knew she was a wacko. Maybe the people she represents will see the light and vote her out next election.
Also one loose cannon doesn't mean anything. If you ask me both parties should be replaced.
The NRCC is desperate! By the way, Hitler was right- wing like them!!
rightwingers compar pelosi to all kinds of evil people but I yet to here them mentioned one specific thing she done wrong. the same goes for Harry Ried
How low can you go before the end. It's over for the GOP and they can't reconstruct because they are self destructing.
We are just sitting back taking notes on ALL the FOOLISH STATEMENTS given by the GOP. Future elections will be a CAKE WALK with all this ammunition.
OBAMA 2012
It appears the GOP went missing during 20th century European history class. It seems everyone is like Hitler to them.
Mostof the nuts absest with hating can't name a single thing she has done. They just through out the names they where spoonfed and have no idea what they are talking about. Everyday the Repuclican party falls even further behind. We really need a conservative voice in government to balance things out, to bad the GOP is being run by the nutjobs that have taken over.
Do any of these idiots know how Hitler was? Do they know what he did? I am so sick of people using his name to describe anyone who differs in opinion with them. Grow up and start behaving responsibility. Is there any wonder why our Country's children are so damaged?
While the comparison is spurious, it's laughable that Democrats are up in arms (so to speak – many don't even support the right to bear arms) over this when they did the same thing to Pres. Bush for eight years!
Did they remove the ones calling Dick Cheney the devil?......No!
If Pelosi is Hitler, then Dick Cheney must be the Devil.
The NRCC are afraid they are going to lose their pay check from the Insurance Companies.
A war of words from people in both parties that arent particulary bright. And its not just one side its both so people from either party quit jumping up and screaming foul when both are guilty. And as far as people calling each other un american for this and un american for that are completly ignorant to the fact that voicing ones opinion is the most american thing you could possibly do and people who dont like it dont listen and move to Iran where you cant say anything bad at all. As far as the wicked witch of the west goes who cares what they call her everyone is entitled to their beliefs but now a days you cant say anyhting with someone being offended kind of goes against the whole freedom of speech thing doesnt it? Does it upset everyone that they called her that? Calling someone Hitler is kind of like calling someone a racist with no proof except your personal fellings
They don't need to remove. We just need not to report it!
Just when you think things are starting to simmer down, you get somebody who wants to label another with a very denigrating tag. I did not know Ms. Pelosi wanted genocide against the Jews. However I do know she has a real problem with ignorance, if I could be so blunt. Do you think you 'children' can play nicely without calling each other names? Just try it for 1-2 weeks, you will your days will go smoother and mayne, just maybe, you can sit down over lunch or dinner and work details out on some of the bills you have been deadlocked. Give it a shot, you might like the results.
This is the party planning a big come back in 2010? Not even a 4 year old acts this immature. Keep playing to that 19% and shrinking base Republicans. Even my staunch Republican friends who voted twice for Bush are now calling themselves Independents.
The Republicans are getting crazier as each day passes.
The Repubs are already painting themselves as underhanded and small but this is way beyond the line.
The only thin more ridiculus in this country than the overspending underproductive government is the losers that think one party is better than the other. Both party's are equally worthless and until we limit terms for all politicians we are doomed to these worthless ideas. Like making everybody by health ins or pay a fine, government can't even make auto ins mandatory, what a joke. Throw them all out!!!!!
This is explains why most Jewish people vote for democratic candidates. Six million people were murdered 70 years ago and the rethugs trivialize this in a political slam. Do the sick and vile GOP care at all about the people who were murdered during the holocaust?
This party will NEVER STOP THEIR HATE while the Democrats are in power, they are hypocrites that can't remember what their party did to this country for eight years!
The American people should research history to understand what world leaders and governments have done over the last 100 plus years and then compare what our leaders in every branch of government have done and are doing with the historic cases. If it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck it's a duck, plain and simple. If you don't want to know the truth, keep your head buried in the sand and keep saying everything is okay.
Um... repubs are not the brightest lights in the room are they?? Hitler was a fascist, Fascism is on the right, right near where the repubs sit on the spectrum. Maybe better education systems for republican areas is needed; I think they are failing out or dropping out. Either way they don't have a clue what they are talking about lol.
Wait, I'm confused. I agree with the DNC; comparing someone is Hitler is not a healthy thing for the country. It certainly does not help us get out of the shouting match we're in and begin to have actual debate.
But I hope someone can provide me with some context. When Bush was compared to Hitler in the past, did the DNC ever make a comment that the comparison was taking things too far?
I doubt it. We've had so much animosity generated from both sides for so long, the pot and the kettle are just in denial.
some of the NATO forces have gay men- women serving mabe the US should tell them to get rid of them or pull there forces out
Republicans = obstructionists and do nothing hate mongers. How I ever was registered as a republican for most of my life, I will never understand now. These people are despicable!
It's the boots.
Blah, blah, blah RNCC... You people are worthless and it is too difficult for you to control. OMG.
GOP RIP
How can anyone take these scaremongering GOP clowns seriously?
Hahaha... It's about time. This lady is worse then Hitler. Everytime I see that face I want to punch it. I say we all make punching bags with her face on it.
She needs to fired immediately.
That was no mistake and was intentionaly done in the same old mean spirited way this repug party has been operating. Notice you did not see a formal apology for the hitler analogy just an oop's, sorry wrong link. How pathetic.
The Republicans simply can't stand women and minorities in powerful positions. It disproves their most fundamental belief: the inherent superiority of the white, protestant, male.
Just goes to show the repulicans can't win a fair fight but have to bully to win anything in this country now days.Shame really what the party of Lincon has turned into.Bunch of whinners who can't come up with any orginal ideas to help our great country.
The comparison is not even close...Hitler had a much better mustache.
The Republicans are no better than Smeagol "Lord of the Rings" They talk to themselves and answer too. The meat is sweet...you gotta eat it raw. They hates us...yes...yes!!! Let's go Hobbits-sez, follow me.
See what I am talking about? Their followers have no mind of their own and follow blindly into oblivion.
Time to grow up. Both sides,right wing or left. We are at a time in our life time,we can achive a great deal. Hateful rhetoric is harmful,and a big waste of time.
Hey, if Pelosi can call everyday hardworking Americans Nazis then why not let the NRCC compare her to Hitler.
If the stupid republican who thought of putting something like that out for the public or even just other republicans must think that George W. Bush was comparable to Stalin.
hiding the truth.
Repugnicants, the real little Hitlers. Too bad we can't carpet bomb them.
NRCC sad, pathetic and over the top desperate.
The NRCC is turning into pure evil.
What? You know the woorst danger is that Obama might do something wrong some day and need a loyal opposition to set him straight but all we will have are these discredited clowns. They have cried wolf one too many times they are losing their credibility by the day.
These people are idiots. I can't figure out how the GOPers ever get into double digit voter totals.
Typical GOP dirty tactic. Allow the dirty trick to do its damage before undoing it and issuing an admission of error.
They've removed but CNN published it. How sad.
The NRCC has a problem with strong women. And strong minorities. They think they're covering up their problem by trying to be witty, but they're failing miserably.
They're just a bunch of Angry White guys. Comeon Repubs... you know it's true...
I'm sick of all politicians from both parties and if the American people only have half a brain which is evident they don't, they would vote out any and all incumbents but sadly they keep reelecting the same Bozo's term after term.
When the Speaker stops behaving like Hitler, they'll stop calling her Hitler.
Wait, all those morons that compared Bush to Hitler and they back off someone bad mouthing Comrade Pelosi ?
The GOP...... a bunch of individuals who will never care about the middle class or poor of this country. I cannot wait for 2010 when we can vote them all out of office.....They are a disgrace to this country.
One of the tools that truly identifies the Nazi party was their use of propaganda. Today no one is better at lies and misinformation than the republican party. Sorry Randall but you and your cronies are the true Nazi party of today. Don't expect much from the next election. We're on to you.
Eric Holder, continue to investigate the state-sponsored torture regime. It's time to bury this sorry-excuse for a party along with the Whig and Bull-moose parties.
These are the folks that launched 2 wars (that Obama has to now clean up w/o the invaded locations going into chaos), crashed our economy (does a weak or strong economy equal better national security?), left those people to drown during Katrina, etc, etc., etc. And recently they cheered when America didn't get a potential economic booster (2016 Olympics) and mocked our president for getting the Nobel Peace Prize (it's alot easier to fight global warming when you have the rest of the globe on your side, not against you).
And they have the gall to compare Pelosi to Hitler? Just when I think they can't get any lower...
What.....people are griping over an obvious parody. The continued Pussification of America at work
The party of NO is the one that starts wars their memory is very short . Bush/Cheney/ Hitler are the war starters did they STEEL that line from old Steel?
The sad thing is, a surprisingly large minority of Americans believe things like this. And if the GOP wants to pander to this minority they should plan on being in the minority again after the midterm elections, as talk like this alienates the vast majority of Americans.
Rush Limbaugh, Sarah Palin, and now the RNCC are doing more to help democrats in 2010 than anyone else
She is a socialist troll that will bankrupt the country with her welfare spending.
The National Republican Congressional Committee has removed a tweet Tuesday that linked to a video comparing House Speaker Nancy Pelosi with Adolf Hilter.
SHAME ON YOU!!!.......SO A MAN THINK IT ....SO IS HE!!!!!
Funny when Moveon.Org compared Former President Bush to Hitler no one here cared. But when a Democrat is treated the same way we have to raise Holy Hell. If it's okay to call Republicans Hitler the same should be true for Democrats. Let's not have a double standard.
Angry white losing control and lashing out.
You just gotta love it!
Any "little woman" that does not consider herself "chattel" and does not walk 3 paces behind the man, like the good little "Stepford wife" Cindy McCain, is a threat to the angry old white man party.
Sexist and racist, who is next?
yeah right you are lying
Comparisons to anyone in America to Hitler need to stop. It's ridiculous. On the same note, the DNC calling republican's who are against the peace prize with 'terrorists' is just as bad. We need to focus on the issues and drop the smears.
No wonder our youth show no respect, look at the complete lack of respect persons in authority show, from our vice president on down. It is time for adult to act like adults and stop spewing hate. It is time for people in positions of leadership to show decency and civility.
Wasn't the Republican Party the ones who gave us George W. Bush and Dick Cheney? If so, then they really have no credibility in calling anyone Hitler. Let's see...Bush & Cheney created a bogus war that has killed more Americans than Bin Laden has, not to mention thousands of Iraqi civilians. Pelosi & Obama are trying to give all Americans access to affordable health care. Only in a party as twisted and removed from the values of REAL Americans as the GOP is could wanting health care for everyone make someone like Pelosi or Obama evil.
Yet another reason not to trust, believe, or ever support the GOP again!
I am sick of persons in positions of leadership showing no honor. I am sick of the hypocricy and hateful comments coming most loudly from the GOP...the party of hate, the party of NO.
No wonder our youth show no respect, look at the complete lack of respect persons in authority show, from vice president Cheney on down. It is time for adult to act like adults and stop spewing hate. Time to clean house at the NRCC.
This is a low blow. I am a strong believer and working together between parties. I'm glad the NRCC is working towards improving America in a bipartisan manor.....WAAAAAIT.
Tell us again how you are not the party of hate.
Wow the Republicans is women biast now they attacking a women,
I am a struggling american we dont have time for drama like this.
We need to vote Republicans out the office.
Since my grandmother came from prewar Germany to get away from the Brownshirts, I find ANY reference to Hitler tossed around ignorantly to be stupid. Most Americans have no concept as to what it was like over there living under that regime.
You should be kissing the ground to live in this country. Trust me, in most countries these open opinions would not be tolerated. You'd be pulled out of your home and never heard from again in prewar Germany.
Stay classy Republicans!
The GOP has gone off the deep end. Will all due respect, what the hell is wrong with them? This is sick.
So what i'm getting from Tom from NC is that if you have nationalized health care, you are of the Nazi party.....yet practically EVERY country outside of our own has nationalized health care! So.....everyone but Americans are Nazis?? Why are some people so incredibly misinformed?? They don't even know the definitions of socialism and fascism....which are completely OPPOSITE political viewpoints! You can't just throw out accusations like this when you don't even understand them! Grow up!
Smells like Rush Limbaugh to me!
America is getting dumber by the day. We are becoming a country of name -calling whiners that want to blame everything on everyone else. I was not alive then (I was a kid when Vietnam was going on) but I can imagine how disgusted those people that lived from WW I to WW II must feel about their country.
From the baby boomers on, we have all been spoiled. We have learned how to think just for ourselves and not our fellow Americans. I'm talking about BOTH parties.
Grow up America or soon we will end up like Rome.
For all the bad jokes and the comments on bush's incompetency and lies siad by Democrats and liberals, no ever called him the things that the Republicans and conservatives say about Obama, Pelosi and Ried.
The situation has become deplorable and must stop. This is not free speech. This hate talk is slander and should be deemed injurious and subject to legal action.
This video and the people who are behind it are disgusting. Obama, Pelosi, and Harry Reid are trying to make this country and the world a better place.This is how the republicans are spending their time? No wonder we went down the tubes under their leadership.
CNN you know what you are doing everytime you run these things. I blame you with Fox for this madness. To put the record straight – I would rather watch MSNBC anyday of the week than watch your backdoor politics.
The Old White Men Party of Hate.
Never been a fan of Pelosi, but that will change if she pushes through the public option. Ordinarily I wouldn't have much hope, but maybe comparing her to Hitler will anger her enough to get to work and kick their butts. Nancy, this is for the history books, if you pass the public option (which is what we need to make our nation truly great) you'll be in there alongside FDR, if not nobody will ever remember you.
I'm glad to see that nothing's changed for the GOP – never mind issues, attack people like this.
Big surprise.
No conservative commentary seems complete without a Nazi comparison.
Comparing anyone today to Hitler, has all the logic of comparing them to Mickey Mouse. There IS no logic. It's just using a name that means nothing.You hate filled people should do a little reading and maybe in history there might actually be someone that you could use to expose your hate on. Don't you get weary of hating? It takes a lot out of a person to think nothing but angry thoughts about others. Who knows, maybe someone out there thinks the same thing about you...Do you ever get that funny feeling that someone HATES YOU??
