Republican Congressman Compares Obama To Hitler

Rep. Randy Weber (R-Texas) compared President Barack Obama to German dictator Adolf Hitler on Monday night.

The ultra-conservative congressman from Texas criticized the president for not traveling to Paris on Sunday to attend a massive unity rally against terrorism, which was attended by dozens of world leaders.

The congressman, however, has a decision to make. Is Obama a socialist or a fascist? Or both?
