LaRouche PAC Members Bring Obama-Hilter Image to Hingham

Anyone driving through Downtown Hingham on Tuesday, May  29, may have spotted an unusual sight: a man and woman in front of the CVS on South Street  with a poster of President Barack Obama with drawn-on mustache similar to the facial hair worn by Adolph Hitler.

The man and woman, who requested not to be identified, were on the South Street representing Lyndon Larouche's Political Action Committee (LaRouche PAC). They offered reading material to CVS customers about the LaRouche PAC’s federal slate of candidates for the upcoming election.

When asked why the man and woman were in Hingham, they would not answer any questions from Patch reporters and referred all questions to Rachel Brown’s campaign.

Brown is a Quincy Democrat running for the Fourth Congressional District, the seat formerly held by Barney Frank. She is part of six candidates from across the country endorsed by the LaRouche PAC.

According to Rachel Brown’s candidate statement, “Right now our nation is in a deep crisis with abominable unemployment, dire budget problems, an imminent threat of war, and a clinically insane president.”

The LaRouche PAC, which among other causes, is calling for the impeachment of President Obama, commonly uses the image of the president with a Hilter mustache, according to Brown’s Campaign Manager Jennifer Kreingold.

“We’ve been campaigning with the mustache on Obama’s face since 2009,” said Kreingold.

Most shoppers ignored the campaigners, some gave the man and woman dirty looks,  while some vehicles passing by honked their horn at them.
