Is Obama Hitler?

You've got to admit, signs depicting President Barack Obama as Hitler (while not the first time for a sitting president) are certainly eye-catching.

That's apparently the point, as Don and Judy Clark stood near a table covered with literature to garner support for their drive to "dump Obama" and get the process to impeach the president started.

Don't get too excited, Republicans, they don't like Romney, either. Their candidate? Lyndon LaRouche, who for many is a familiar name at the voting booth as a presidential candidate who ran eight times between 1976 to 2004, running once for his own U.S. Labor Party and campaigning seven times for the Democratic Party nomination.

While some have credited the now 89-year-old politcal figure for predicting the financial crisis that ushered in the 2000s, he was also sentenced to 15 years in prison in 1988 for conspiracy to commit mail fraud and tax code violations, and was released in 1994 on parole.

Among their goals, the Clarks hope to reinstate provisions of the Glass-Steagall Act, which is also called the Banking Act of 1933. It was first passed amid the Great Depression and created the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation and established some separation between investment banks and depository banks. However, over the years, certain parts of the act were repealed and in 1999, Congress passed the Gram-Leach-Bilely Act that ended many of the separations between depository banks and securities firms.

This erosion of Glass-Steagall is what the Clarks, and apparently LaRouche, say has caused our recent financial woes.

As to impeaching a president that will be up for re-election in less than four months? The Clarks are convinced he won't leave, comparing him to a dictator who won't leave office. Judy explained that the goal of the LaRouche movement is also to introduce a second candidate at the Democratic convention in September, as "Democrats don't want him in office either...be watching the week of September."

Muskego residents driving by were largely supportive of the anti-Obama message, but most who honked likely didn't have LaRouche stickers on their bumpers, either. The Clarks are undeterred, and said they plan on appearing throughout the area to get their message out.
