Former senator John Glenn (D-Ohio) took the defense a step further by comparing the Republicans' misleading statements to those of Nazi Germany. "You've just got to separate out fact from fiction. . . . Too often, too often, in this country, if you hear something repeated, it's the old Hitler business -- if you hear something repeated, repeated, repeated, repeated, you start to believe it," he said.
Matt's Chat
Senator, that is disgusting. A pathetic display of moral cowardice and simply ridiculous partisan rhetoric that identifies you squarely as having Michael Moore's Disease. You, sir, can no longer be trusted.And to think, that at one time, I was proud to have you as a fellow Ohioan. Now, I am ashamed of you.
John Kerry should denounce you. He won't. But he should, because the more prominent Democrats tout the MoveOn.org Bu$Hitler crap, the more moderates come over to the Republican ticket.
Mark's Remarks
Senator Glenn, shame on you! What a disgusting statement, especially from someone who is supposed to be respected...I would expect this garbage from elitist hamsters like Michael Moore and some old Europeans, but this from you? Truly disgraceful!
Where are the cries of the politics of hate being used? Where are the calls of John Glenn being a liar, of engaging in lowering the level of discourse? Oh, wait, he has a D next to his name so he gets a free pass.
If John Kerry were an truly an honorable man, he would condemn these comments, just as Bush condemned the Swifties....But Kerry won't do that because these slanderous statements are all he has....
