It's Indiana's very own Tony Zirkle, who's running in the Congressional primary. Why? Well, you see...
U.S. Congressional candidate Tony Zirkle is facing criticism from one of his primary opponents, and a host of people on the Internet, for speaking at an event over the weekend that celebrated Adolf Hitler's birthday.Didn't know enough about the Nazis? Hell, he didn't even know they were Nazis, or what the word "Nazi" is short for:
Zirkle confirmed to The News-Dispatch on Monday he spoke Sunday in Chicago at a meeting of the Nationalist Socialist Workers Party, whose symbol is a swastika.
When asked if he was a Nazi or sympathized with Nazis or white supremacists, Zirkle replied he didn't know enough about the group to either favor it or oppose it.
He also told WIMS radio in Michigan City that he didn't believe the event he attended included people necessarily of the Nazi mindset, pointing out the name isn't Nazi, but Nationalist Socialist Workers Party.Duh. But even if that wasn't enough, you'd think the decor would have rung a bell once he got there.
That's Tony Zirkle, apparently, speaking without a functioning brain.
H/t Dr. Dawg.
Update: My, this Zirkle fellow is a charmer:
Tony Zirkle says we should talk about segregating the United States by race.Yes, he's a real sweetheart, all right:
"Most of the male porn stars were Jewish at the beginning," Zirkle explained. Now the male porn stars are mostly black, he claimed, and the women who appear in pornographic works tend to be "young, white, Christian women."Sounds like he was right at home over the weekend.
