Marine Corps Vet Blasts Dem Congressman for Calling ObamaCare Protesters ‘Brown Shirts’

On August 5, Congressman Brian Baird (D-Wash.) likened recent town hall meeting protesters to Nazis:

What we’re seeing right now is close to Brown Shirt tactics. I mean that very seriously.”

On Tuesday, at such a political gathering in Vancouver, a Marine Corps veteran named David William Hedrick blasted the Congressman for this disgraceful depiction.

What follows is a video from this town hall meeting in Washington state that every person in America — especially those on the Left and their media minions who continue to shamefully besmirch average citizens for having the nerve to oppose the government takeover of healthcare!!! — should be required to view (h/t HotAirPundit via Hot Air):

“I, David William Hedrick, a member of the silent majority, decided that I was not going to be silent anymore. So, I let U.S. Congressman Brian Baird have it. I was one questioner out of 38, that was called at random from an audience that started at 3,000 earlier in the evening. Not expecting to be called on, I quickly scratched what I wanted to say on a borrowed piece of paper and with a pen that I borrowed from someone else in the audience minutes before I spoke. So much for the planned talking points of the right wing conspiracy.”

Hear, hear!
