August 18, 2009 (LPAC)—The continued coverage of the prominence of the LaRouche Political Action Committee amidst the upsurge today against the Obama Nazi health care "reform" and government policies generally, is to be seen today in local Maryland and Connecticut newspapers, and in Al Jazeera, a leading international Arabic language news service.
