Arizona State Rep: Obama Like Hitler For Closing National Parks
Godwin’s Law is again called into play. An Arizona lawmaker compared President Obama to Hitler and called for rogue sheriffs to arrest federal employees whose job is to enforce the government shutdown.
Arizona State Rep. Brenda Barton initially urged Americans to ask their local sheriff to consider “revoking the arrest powers (that they granted in the first place) to federal agents operating within their county.”
Barton was angered that National Park Service rangers were keeping visitors out of the parks closed as a result of the government shutdown triggered by a House vote to delay implementation of the Affordable Care Act in exchange for funding the federal government.
The lawmaker referred to Obama, using incorrect German, by the Nazi leader’s title in a second posting on the social media site.
“Someone is paying the National Park Service thugs overtime for their efforts to carry out the order of De Fuhrer… where are our Constitutional Sheriffs who can revoke the Park Service Rangers authority to arrest??? Do we have any Sheriffs with a pair?” she wrote.
