This is an unbelievable story. Just when you start to think that maybe there is sanity in the world, you see a story like this.

Regular readers of this blog know that I have a particular dislike for Holocaust denial and that, indeed, I've tried to do my small part to counter the lies spread by Holocaust deniers, beginning on Usenet eight years ago.

A while back, I mentioned these hate-filled loons in Kansas who were harassing a hotel owner because he was flying a rainbow flag—Pandagon has an excellent summary of the contretemps—in short, he had the flag in memory of his son, the local paper talked up the association of the rainbow with gays,…

Joyce Kaufman is an ex-dancer turned radio talk show host. She is well-known as a polarizing, ultra conservative, and many think a racist. The candidate she is promoting in the video is Allen West, who offered her the position of Chief of Staff. She declined.
She began to show support for the Tea Party candidate, Allen West many months before the election and had him as a guest on her radio program many times.

West was one of those Tea Party candidates endorsed by Sarah Palin. This has given rise to the question of West's judgment in first choosing Kaufman to be his chief of staff.

What shame this woman and her views bring upon America.
