The problem with your logic is that most anti government takeover of healthcare protests is spontaneous grass roots effort. Most pro socialized medicine response is highly organized and often paid activism.

To equate the two is ludicrous.

It's not ludicrous. They are alike in the kind of tactics they use. For example, each shouts the other down. That they may have differences in other respects, such as what triggered their engagement, does not nullify the one respect in which they are alike.

Hitler and Mother Theresa are alike in that they both had mothers. There is no logical flaw in comparing them on that basis. The error in logic would be if you argued back that one was good and one was evil. That would be an error because it is irrelevant to the point being made. Just as your argument is irrelevant to the point I made.
