The state GOP on Monday issued a press release under the headline "Anti-Semites for Obama" that begins:
"The Tennessee Republican Party today joins a growing chorus of Americans concerned about the future of the nation of Israel, the only stable democracy in the Middle East, if Sen. Barack Hussein Obama is elected president of the United States."
The release cites Obama's support from Nation of Islam Minister Louis Farrakhan and other controversial figures.
So when will the TNGOP denounce and reject support from white supremacist groups and abortion clinic bombers?

So far, Obama is a Muslim, an anti-Semite, a communist, a socialist, a foreigner, hates the U.S., and what else? I'm sure we haven't seen the last desperate, scurrilous attack.
Our answer needs to be the same in every case: The people spreading these lies are paid Republican bullshitters, and you can never believe a single word they say.

Hobbs and his whole cadre of fools at the state GOP are dumb asses. They keep using the term "anti-Semite." Maybe they need to get a dictionary, since Arabs are Semites too. The Ku Klux Klan is anti-Semitic. The Nazis were anti-Semitic.
Calling a Muslim an anti-Semite just shows a tremendous level of ignorance.
This story has now hit the national blogs. See here & here.
Hobbs must be so proud.
And now it's the headline story on TPM.
Will Lamar Alexander, Ron Ramsey, and Jason Mumpower denounce these bigoted tactics like McCain did? That's what I want to know.

You'll get cast into Google Hell!
This is just the kind of thing that CBT warned us not to do. Oh wait. They're doing it. Just like they did last election and every election.
