Paul Broun (R-GA): Idiot or Moron? You Decide.
Rep. Paul Broun (R-GA) has said a few outrageous things in his political career, but this one may take the cake. …“He […] spoke of a ’socialistic elite’ — Obama, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid — who might use a pandemic disease or natural disaster as an excuse to declare martial law,” reports The Athens Banner-Herald.
He added, “They’re trying to develop an environment where they can take over. We’ve seen that historically.” …
In November, the Georgia lawmaker told a Rotary Club that President Obama was a “Marxist” and said his suggestion of a “civilian security force” made him eerily like Nazi leader Adolf Hitler. …
If stupid people are going to say stupid things, can’t they at least learn the difference between socialism and Marxism?
Not to mention the fact that Barack Obama is even less a socialist — or a Marxist — than Lucille Ball was a Communist. But to hope for that much to get through the cement skulls of goofballs like Paul Broun would be asking far too much from the Attention-Deficit Sound-Bite Generation.
