Hitler, Lenin ... and Obama?

A billboard erected by the North Iowa Tea Party that compared President Barack Obama with Adolf Hitler and Vladimir Lenin was replaced this morning after generating a political firestorm and a backlash against the group.The billboard, paid for by local Tea Partiers, was erected last week in Mason City. It lumped the three leaders under the banner of "socialism" and proclaimed, "Radical leaders prey on the fearful & naive."
The founder of the 200-member group, Bob Johnson, said yesterday that the billboard would remain up for a month, the Des Moines Register reports. But last night the billboard company was told to remove the message, which was papered over today with a public-service announcement.
