Dana Loesch had a post up yesterday bragging about how the tea party "polices" their rallies because they asked a guy to remove a Hitler picture from his sign.
It's pretty funny that Loesch would brag about that, considering that she defended a billboard comparing Obama to Hitler back in July.It's actually not the first time she forgot her previous ridiculous comments, claiming in August that all Hitler comparisons were from left wing plants.
Still, maybe you could see this as progress. But before the tea party pats themselves on the back too much, it might be worth taking a look at what was on the other side of the sign. Sharp seems to deliberately avoid showing that in his video. Fortunately, I happened to snap a photo of the other side of the sign after the tea party's "policing."
So remember to follow the rules of thoughtful political discourse. Obama can be compared to Hitler on billboards, but not on signs, because doing so on signs is "not helpful."

And finally, making signs that suggest that Obama is secretly a Muslim...highly encouraged!
