Democratic Congressman Robert Wexler of Florida lashed out Saturday at John McCain's choice of Alaska Governor Sarah Palin as his running mate, accusing her of supporting "Nazi sympathizer" Pat Buchanan, and branding the move an "affront to all Jewish Americans." "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," said a statement by Wexler.

"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," said a statement by Wexler.

"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'".
 
Wexler went on to accuse McCain of having "failed his first test of leadership."

Gov. Palin's office.

Look over her right shoulder.

Interestingly Ha'aretz also had this story about US presidential campaign politics:

Quote

Democratic vice-presidential candidate Joe Biden was quoted Monday as telling senior Israeli officials behind closed doors that the Jewish state will have to reconcile itself to a nuclear Iran.

In the unsourced report, Army Radio also quoted Biden as saying that he opposed “opening a additional military and diplomatic front.”

Biden, chairman of the powerful Senate Foreign Relations Committee, has long been considered strongly pro-Israel. His nomination as Barack Obama’s running mate had been expected to shore up the Democrats’ strength with U.S. Jewish voters.

Hey, rep. Wexler...

...remind us again which campaign is cozy with anti-semitic, genocidal fascist dictatorships?

If she supported Pat Buchanan in 2000, why was she her state's co-chair of Steve Forbes Presidential campaign?

There are a lot of people who will want to kick his ass, starting with Buchanan.

If someone called me a Nazi I would go to wherever they are and personally punch them straight in the nose.

The law has a concept called "fighting words."  That fits.
