O, That’s Nice: Malkin, Anti-Stimulus and an Anti-Obama Swastika Sign
Right wing virago Michelle Malkin appeared on stage at a Colorado anti-stimulus rally with Sate Senator Josh Penry, Congressman Mike Coffman, Colorado GOP Chairman Dick Wadhams, State Senator Dave Schultheis, former Congressman Tom Tancredo, and Independence Institute president Jon Caldara and this guy in the picture who carried a sign a swastika. ProgressNow Colorado reports:
one person defended the guy to one of our people saying that the swastika is not a Nazi symbol, but an honored Native American symbol.
Yeah, that’s a symbol that has been used in various cultures including Native American and in Eastern religions. But Media Matters’ Karl Frisch looked deeper:
The man with the sign isn’t professing his affinity for Nazis. He isn’t even identifying himself as a Nazi. The swastika in question has a circle around it forming an O and the rest of the sign reads "BAMA". Get it? Obama is a Nazi. That’s much better. Sigh.
And here’s a video of the entire grotesque event:






It’s not a native american swastika. The native american version http://www.royalsaskmuseum.ca/…..tml”>points to the left, and it’s a positive symbol.
