Dateline Aspen, Colorado. Well meaning Coloradan submits a letter to The Aspen Times calling upon his neighbors to erect a Holocaust Memorial.
A week later, the newspaper publishes a letter in response entitled "Beginning a debate" written by a Holocaust-denying, 9/11 "Truthing" Nazi. It begins thusly:
Regarding the May 3 (The Aspen Times and Aspen Daily News) by Bennett A. Bramson: Mr. Bramson, Jesus Christ had you and your ilk pegged about 2,000 years ago...
Do we dare to hope that the paper was intentionally trying to help the original letter writer's plans by mocking the opposition in their printing of this letter, or have the grown-ups so gone to sleep that neo-Nazis are simply a part of the legitimate conversation -- everyone gets a say don't you know (but must they be provided the soapbox?).
Adam Holland has been following the adventures of this purveyor of neo-Nazi material, Steve Campbell, for some time: Aspen Times publishes anti-Semitic diatribe
Maybe this is "balance" or a "narrative"?
G*d help us.
Must be an O! supporter. Are not the 9/11 truthers also the same group which believes that Zionist Jews rule the White House led by the evil Neo-Con ChimpMcHilter?
Why then would any sane American in the Jewish community ever, EVER, vote for a Democrat since the day after JFK was shot all that Democrats have EVER done is to embolded and empower the very people who wish to kill Jews?
The term Neo-Nazi isn't just about white supremacy anymore, it's much bigger than that mostly due to the illiberal quest for Collectivist power which is coming to us through the Democrat establishment.
Don't be ridiculous! I'm a Democrat, and am also Jewish, and I'm certainly not in favor of Neo-Nazis! I'm also an Obama supporter and like him I'm passionately supportive of Israel! And no, I don't think that Neo-Nazis are a legitimate part of the debate over anything.
