Let’s hope not.
Art Jones, running in the Republican primary to challenge Democrat Dan Lipinski in Illinois’ 3rd Congressional District, is a former member of the American Nazi Party, who, true to his breed, denies that the Holocaust occurred. Jones explains,
“As far as I’m concerned, the Holocaust is nothing more than an international extortion racket by the Jews. It’s the blackest lie in history. Millions of dollars are being made by Jews telling this tale of woe and misfortune in books, movies, plays and TV. The more survivors, the more lies that are told.”
The sunny side of this human cloud is that in America, even vile, hateful and ignorant citizens like Jones can express their views and run for office.
The scary side is that some of them get elected.
Come on . This douche bag has been running for office for the past 30 years and hasn’t gotten elected yet.
Here in Montgomery County we have a resident alien enthusiast. Better than Kucinich, even. Still running, last I checked. Still not elected. But that’s basic crazy, not scary and dangerously so.
