Meet Tony Zirkle.
Zirkle is running for congress in Indiana's 2nd District (South Bend Area). On Sunday he spoke to American National Socialist Workers Party (Illinois Nazis) Where he stood in front of a painting of Hitler with a swastika flag in the background. This wouldn't be such a big deal, except that he got 30% of the vote in the last Republican Primary. However, he was than running against an incumbent and the Republicans gave a damn.
Thinkprogress.org has a video from a WSBU report.

no.. being a handful of miles away from a comedy goldmine of tragic proportions?
ReplyDeleteTHAT's the crime, here.
Have you never seen Blues Brothers?
ReplyDeleteIt's as if you are so ignorant to the deeply embedded joke that you don't even take notice that it is being mentioned.
Kyle is a man of wisdom. Listen to Kyle, J.
ReplyDeleteListen to Kyle and go watch Blues Brothers.
If not for him, then for Cab Calloway.
