This is what happens when you don’t stand up and forcefully repudiate a preacher of hate like “Minister” Farrakhan:
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.
I would note only that even Walt and Mearsheimer were smart enough to immediately repudiate David Duke when he hailed their “Israel Lobby” paper.
