Greek Parliament Evicts Far-Right Lawmaker for Volley of Insults

ATHENS — Greece's parliament evicted a far-right lawmaker for insulting rivals in a tumultuous debate on Friday that prompted jeers of "Heil Hitler" from a leftist deputy and bolstered calls to crack down on the nationalist Golden Dawn party.

Tapping into resentment over budget cuts and illegal immigration in the crisis-hit country, Golden Dawn has emerged from obscurity to become Greece's third-biggest party, polling nearly 12 percent.

Greece's conservative-led government is drafting anti-racism legislation in an effort to rein in the party which it says abuses parliamentary immunity to incite racial hatred with anti-immigrant speeches.

The parliament speaker ordered Golden Dawn lawmaker Panagiotis Iliopoulos to leave the chamber because he had called other deputies "worthless" and "cattle".

"We're not obliged to listen to their hate speeches," said Speaker Yannis Dragasakis.

Golden Dawn party? That's an interesting name. And when I say "interesting", I mean weird.

Hard economic times birth extremists faster than rabbits birth baby bunnies. No surprises here.

I suspect it was your intent, but you got my hopes up there for a second.

(Golden Dawn Party reminds me of the fake terrorist group named as a diversionary tactic in the first Die Hard movie... "Asian Dawn Movement". Ahhh, the stupid stuff I remember while forgetting important things).
