POPSFormer Marine David Hedrick @ Pioneer Courthouse Square
David William Hedrick, a 30-year-old accountant from Camas, Wash., said the largest group he had ever talked in front of was in a college class until he spoke at a gathering Rep. Brian Baird, D-Wash., held at the Clark County Ampitheater. http://blog.oregonlive.com/mapesonpolitics/2009/09/tea_party_takes_over_pioneer_c.html Hedrick excoriated Baird and suggested that the Democrats should quit making references about the right and Nazism. The Nazis were really a left-wing socialist movement, he said, "If Nancy Pelosi wants to find a swastika, maybe the first place she should look is the sleeve of her own arm." Hedrick's youtube clip viewed more than 1.1 million times. At Pioneer Courthouse Square, he told the crowd that "We are the same Americans who threw out King George for much less." The Tea Party folks took over Portland's Pioneer Courthouse Square a pretty vigorous effort to collect signatures on no less than four proposed tax referendums.

POPSMake My Day: Marine Vet David William Hedrick Baird: No I did not. No I did not. What I said was …. and I’ve apologized for it. David: Thanks for apologizing. I won’t speak to you then. I will speak to others. I’ll remind you, a little history lesson " the Nazis were the National Socialist Party, they were leftists. They took over the finance. They took over the car industry. They took over health care in that country. If Nancy Pelosi wants to find a swastika, maybe the first place she should look is the sleeve on her own arm. Now what I want to know is, you’ve done a lot of things to violate your constitutional oath. As a Marine, as a disabled veteran who has served this country, I have kept my oath. Do you ever intend to keep yours?
