Georgia congressman calls Obama Marxist, warns of dictatorship
Rep. Paul Broun (R-Ga.) puts his foot firmly in his mouth, as he compares President-elect Barack Obama to Adolf Hitler and Karl Marx in an interview with the Associated Press.
A Republican congressman from Georgia said Monday he fears that President-elect Obama will establish a Gestapo-like security force to impose a Marxist dictatorship.
“It may sound a bit crazy and off base, but the thing is, he’s the one who proposed this national security force,” Rep. Paul Broun said of Obama in an interview Monday with The Associated Press. “I’m just trying to bring attention to the fact that we may — may not, I hope not — but we may have a problem with that type of philosophy of radical socialism or Marxism.”
