Well of course they are all names that have been given by Demowhacks to people who are concerned about their healthcare.
Harry Reid said that town hall protesters are "evil-mongers".
Nancy Pelosi said that they "carry swastikas".
And John Dingell said that "the last time I had to confront something like this was when I voted for the civil rights bill and my opponent voted against it. At that time, we had a lot of Ku Klux Klan folks and white supremacists and folks in white sheets and other things running around causing trouble."
Really? We're Nazi's, Klansmen, and evil-mongers?
And yet if a conservative politician even used the wrong term, say queer instead of homosexual, the liberals would be at the gates with pitchforks and torches.
On a similar topic, let's talk about those darned Obama/Joker posters showing up all over LA. A Washington Post writer had this to say about the posters:

The Joker's makeup in "Dark Knight" -- the latest film in a long franchise that dramatizes fear of the urban world -- emphasized the wounded nature of the villain, the sense that he was both a product and source of violence. Although Ledger was white, and the Joker is white, this equation of the wounded and the wounding mirrors basic racial typology in America. Urban blacks -- the thinking goes -- don't just live in dangerous neighborhoods, they carry that danger with them like a virus.
Did you get that? Even though Heath Ledger (and Jack Nicholson) were white, and the character the Joker is white, a poster portraying Obama as the Joker is racist. Huh?
And yet when they published a picture of Bush looking like the Joker in Vanity Fair, that was OK.

So to sum up, if you are against Demowhacks in general, you are a Nazi or at least a Klansman (anybody remember a Demowhack named Robert Byrd?), and if you say anything, anything at all against Obama or his policies, then you are a racist.
Oh, and don't forget, you will be reported to flag@whitehouse.gov for your "fishy" behavior!
