Wexler on Palin, Nazis and Pat Buchanan
There's lots of Buzz out there about Robert Wexler's over-the-top comments on Sarah Palin on the McCain ticket:
"John McCain's decision to select a vice presidential running mate that endorsed Pat Buchanan for president in 2000 is a direct affront to all Jewish Americans. Pat Buchanan is a Nazi sympathizer with a uniquely atrocious record on Israel, even going as far as to denounce bringing former Nazi soldiers to justice and praising Adolf Hitler for his 'great courage.' At a time when standing up for Israel's right to self-defense has never been more critical, John McCain has failed his first test of leadership and judgment by selecting a running mate who has aligned herself with a leading anti-Israel voice in American politics. It is frightening that John McCain would select someone one heartbeat away from the presidency who supported a man who embodies vitriolic anti-Israel sentiments."
After Barack Obama Florida communications director Mark Bubriski defended the comment, Joe Scarborough this morning trashed Bubriski as a "jackass" and "pathetic human being."

If you are looking for anti-Semitism, look no further than the Rev. Wright who says we brought 9/11 on ourselves partly as a result of our "supporting state terrorism against the Palestinians". Gee, I wonder who he means is a terrorist?

Is this the same Pat Buchanan that won Wexler's Palm Beach County in 2000?
LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOOL at democrats

It's amazing how far down our economy and Country has sunk since the Dem's took control of Congress.
These guys (and girls) are rediculous, and Scarborough is absolutely correct.
If D's would quit wasting their time pandering and acting like a bunch of idiots, maybe we would get something done.

The blatant anti-semitism of Buchanan is unmatched. This sicko praises Hitler. I can't understand how any Jewish voter could vote for any person that supported Buchanan's views. The well known quote seems to apply here, Thats like a chicken voting for Colonel Sanders. Its a no brainer, Joe Biden is a true longterm strong supporter of Isreal. When Obama had to make a choice he chose someone that supports Isreal. When McCain had to make a choice, he chose someone that suppotered a Hilter praiser.

Palin is on record as voting for Steve Forbes! I think Wex needs to move back to FL and apologize.
Posted by: | September 02, 2008 at 02:22 PM
Pat Buchanan never praised Hitler, you moron.
Posted by: | September 02, 2008 at 02:24 PM
Actually, if the truth be told... Joe Scarborough is the "jackass" and "pathetic human being."
Dude's a has-been politico punk at best.

2:27 - You dems better start actually working on trying to win this election on real issues over name calling or you will be the whining about your next major Presidental loss.
Posted by: | September 02, 2008 at 02:32 PM
Joe, I couldn't have said it better.
Posted by: | September 02, 2008 at 02:34 PM
eh, no one listens to Wexler anyway.
He's a has-been.
Posted by: | September 02, 2008 at 02:40 PM
Wexler? He's from Maryland, right?
Posted by: Ned | September 02, 2008 at 02:42 PM
"leading anti-Israel voice in American politics." - In all fairness, this title actually belongs to Jimmy Carter.
Posted by: Ron | September 02, 2008 at 02:45 PM
these are the same republicans who call barack obama a black muslim now calling foul.
Posted by: | September 02, 2008 at 02:46 PM
Jesse Jackson & his "Hymietown" comments also belong on the list of anti-semites.
Posted by: Ron | September 02, 2008 at 02:46 PM
2:22 Palin was a Buchanan "RANGER" IN 2000. Maybe this information will help you decide the true views of who is the real supporter of the Jewish community, and it AIN'T, "John-I-want-a-VP-who-is-a-suppoter-of-a-Hitler praiser McCain".

Dear Jewish Palin supporters:
Of all the names that are thrown out to confuse you remember this:
1. Only one, Palin, is a on the record supporter of someone who praises Hitler.
2. Only 1, Palin, is currently on a major US party ticket for the Vice Presidency.
"Never again" and there is no way this risky choice deserves the Jewish vote for Vice President of the United States. And if you still have doubts, I encourage you to visit Alaska Palins home state to see how blatant alive and well anti-semitist is. Palin is not an option. If you cant vote for Obama, sit this selection out.

2:55. Here's the info that you should have found on your own. This is even on McCain's web-site, but I bet liberals blocked that site from themselves so you get ABC's site instead.

Palin who?? ...odds are rising on her dismissal from the GOP ticket.
This lady is a basket case with way too much baggage:
flat earth club, no women rights, no sex ed, buchanan backer, flip-flop politics, surrounded by scandals, alasksan seccession member, nearly recalled as mayor..now under investigation for same issue, Iraq is a Task from god, relying on God's will for a pipeline project.
There was no vetting at all. The closet is opening and all the skeletons are starting to fall out...HAHAHAHA good job McCain. Wake up and smell the coffee.
This would be a good plot for a Dumb and Dumber 3 movie.
Posted by: | September 02, 2008 at 03:13 PM
Holy Crap, it only took a few days and you are calling her Hitler...
I am ashamed to be in the same country as you ignorant fools.

3:04 er Rob, prove it! That sounds like your opinion vs. the facts.
Posted by: Donald Lance | September 02, 2008 at 03:17 PM
3:13 they have to deny it or the entire GOP ticket is blown out of the water.
Of course everyone who witnessed her as a BRIGADER is lying.....hahaha
Nice try, how's the weather on your planet?
Posted by: | September 02, 2008 at 03:17 PM
Wexler supports the killing of over 40,000,000 American children. What has Governor Palin ever done to make anyone think she supported the holocaust? If we are going to play the guilt by associaton game then put a huge fork in Barack Hussein Obama and his weather underground associate bill ayers as well as that biggoted nut case Rev. Wrong who married him and has been so instrumental in their lives for 20 years. Like him or not no one has ever questioned Pat Buchanan's loyalty to this nation, not for one second. By the way Buchanan ran for office several times and earned several million votes in primaries and general elections. Are all of those people disqualified for ever running for public office or serving in the military?
Is this election one that concerns The United States of America or are Americans just going to the polls in order to decide what special interest groups we favor the most and how we are going to fund them.
If every candidate was judged on one issue they would all be the worst person in the world. People of the Jewish faith like everyone else in this nation better vote based on who they believe will keep THIS COUNTRY safe and prosperous. If you don't view that as the paramount concern then please emigrate where your loyalty is.

3:17. I want an apology when politi-fact checks this out!
Posted by: Donald Lance | September 02, 2008 at 03:18 PM
Thanks Donald-
Except that article says that Wexler is a Democrat from Florida...i thought he lived in Maryland?
Posted by: | September 02, 2008 at 03:19 PM
I wish Pat Buchanan was running!
Posted by: | September 02, 2008 at 03:20 PM
3:17 - It is not just one issue, this lady has problems across the board...firing scandals, flip-flop politics, alaskan independence, pork projects, abuse of power, God's will and task for war and alaskan projects, buchanan.....oh how the list keeps growing.

3:17, let's start a dirty laundry list for Barry and Joe, compare them against John and Sarah, and let's see who's list is longer. Should I start or would you like to?
Posted by: Donald Lance | September 02, 2008 at 03:23 PM
Democrats are running scared...
That's why there is all the hate on here for a woman who chooses life, is an NRA member and doesn't believe in the hype of "global warm...er, Climate change".
How dare McCain pick a strong, beautiful, conservative woman....doesn't he know that only ugly, liberal women who toe the party line are allowed?

Sarah Palin DID NOT endorse Pat Buchanan. Get your facts straight.

You go first Lance, since you claim to be a Libertarian, why don't you do the McCain Palin list?
I didn't think so.
Faux Libertarian = McLance

Wow 3:17
A major news agency points out that the vice presidential candidate’s longtime advisor and campaign fundraiser, Chicago attorney Joseph Cari, was indicted in 2005 for helping the convicted Syrian fundraiser (Antoin Rezko) who bankrolled Obama’s political career operate a massive kickback scheme.

Glad to see you at least dropped the *M-I-L-F* reference.
You Democrats are so classy.
Can't wait to hear what Biden has to say at the debates...as long as it is his own material.
What fun!

Posted by: | September 02, 2008 at 03:44 PM
Typical Democrat McCarthism. First they call Bill Clinton a racist and now Palin a antisemite. So now, if you oppose Obama's left wing politics you must be either a racist or antisemite. Stop it you jerks. Enough is enough.
Posted by: | September 02, 2008 at 03:44 PM
Um, I do believe that Biden said that Israel needs to realize that they are going to have to live with a nuclear Iran. Sounds to me like Biden believes that Israel should just bend over and take whatever Iran says. And Obama wonders why he is polling so badly among Jews.
On a side note, Wexler doesn't live in Florida. So please in the future refer to him as the carpet bagging congressman from Maryland.
