He did, but he really glossed over it, not discussing the over-arcing issue. (But it's still a funny comment he makes)
RUSH: From Des Moines, Iowa: "A billboard created by an Iowa tea party group that compares President Barack Obama to Adolf Hitler and Vladimir Lenin is drawing sharp criticism -- even from fellow tea party activists who have condemned it as offensive and a waste of money. ... The co-founder of the roughly 200-person group said the billboard was intended to send an anti-socialist message. But Bob Johnson admitted Tuesday that the message may have gotten lost amid the images of fascist and communist leaders." Now, have you seen the picture of the billboard? Yeah, I've seen it. You got Hitler called National Socialism, you got Obama called Democrat Socialism, and then Lenin's over there, Marxist Socialism. What's fascinating to me here is that people are all hacked off and outraged and offended that anybody would dare compare Obama to Hitler, but apparently nobody has a problem with Obama being compared to Lenin.
That's because everyone knows who Hitler is, probably less than 10% of the population recognized Lenin.
Also the ad lasted less than 24 hours. The last I read, it's already been taken down.
