How's That Republican Rebranding Coming Along, Texass Edition


Rethuglican wingnuts are in a manufactured tizzy over President Obama's self-acknowledged misstep at not having high-level representation at Sunday's march in Paris, where other heads of state (some with significant freedom problems of their own) gathered against intolerance.  One such wingnut roams the halls of Congress: Texass Rep. Randy Weber, who Twitter-twiddled

Weber was forced to apologize by his leaders (who don't want the  raging Rethuglican id to be on such obvious display when they're trying to portray themselves as a responsible, governing Party). Hitler analogies, against the backdrop of anti-Semitic attacks and jihadist violence in Europe, will always fall flat and receive condemnation from those who either survived the Holocaust or have family that didn't, and understand the magnitude of Hitler's obscenity, even if charlatans like Weber don't.
