People screaming "Nazi" and "socialism" for hours at a time at their congressman is "usual"?

Actually I was refering to the fact that some of the folk decrying nazi-ism and hitlerian tactics are Larouchies and are being touted in MSM as conservatives.

That's what happens when what the LaRouchites and conservatives are saying is indistinguishable (death panels, Obama the commienazi, etc.).

Could you please link or something? I don't keep up with the 24 hour newscycle outside elections, (at least then there's an interesting horserace to bet on).12-17-10 Mohamed Bouazizi NEVER FORGET

No one disputes that LaRouchites are on the fringe -- but it's indisputable that they are fringe Democrats.

BTW, this is where LaRouche talks about his objections to the health care plan:
July 22, 2009 (LPAC)--U.S. President Barack Obama delivered a nationally-televised press conference at 8 p.m. on July 22nd, in which on five separate occasions he called for health reform legislation featuring the establishment of "an independent board of doctors and health care experts" to make the life-and-death decisions of what care to provide, and what not, based on cost-effectiveness criteria--exactly the infamous "T-4" policy imposed by Adolf Hitler in 1939, for which the Nazi regime was tried and condemned at Nuremberg.
Lyndon LaRouche commented, within minutes of Obama's remarks:
"President Obama is now impeachable, because he has, in effect, proposed legislation which is an exact copy of the legislation for which the Hitler regime was condemned in the post-war trials. This is an impeachable offense: to propose such a thing in this time, is an impeachable offense. The time has come that the President of the United States deserves impeachment. With this statement from him, the President now deserves impeachment."
IOW, he's a deather."Beware of the man who works hard to learn something, learns it, and finds himself no wiser than before. He is full of murderous resentment of people who are ignorant without having come by their ignorance the hard way. "

Okay. Just read some stuff on LaRouche (and clicked on Ogie's link)
So LaRouche is probably Kidicious' hero? Bat**** crazy, conspiracy theorist, supposed communist idealist mixed with nihilism in some sort of psycho stew?12-17-10 Mohamed Bouazizi NEVER FORGET

LaRouche stopped being a communist in the 1960s, if he ever really was one. He moved far to the right in the 1970s and has been considered a fascist ever since.Christianity: The belief that a cosmic Jewish Zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree...Comment

Be that as it may, in terms of party identification it appears that LaRouche and his supporters have picked the Democrats...12-17-10 Mohamed Bouazizi NEVER FORGET

So did the Klan for a hundred years.
LaRouche and his followers are basically a nut bag cult.Christianity: The belief that a cosmic Jewish Zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree...Comment
