Fox News Source: "Exterminate Jew Power"

Yesterday Fox News, living up to their reputation as the media arm of the Republican Party, did their part to abet John McCain's new campaign strategy, airing a Sean Hannity-hosted hit job against Barack Obama that featured as its star witness, Andy Martin. And who is he? From TPM:

Martin previously crawled out from under a rock according to Matthew Mosk in the WP, to "take credit for posting the first article to assert that the Illinois senator was a Muslim."  [...]

According to no less a source than the Unification Church's impeccably right-wing Washington Times of December 22, 1999:

In 1986, when Mr. Martin ran as a Democrat for Connecticut's 3rd Congressional District seat under the name "Anthony R. Martin-Trigona," his campaign committee filed papers saying its purpose was to "exterminate Jew power in America and impeach U.S. District Court of Appeals judges in New York City."

The Washington Times' reporter, Ralph Z. Hallow, went on to say: "a Connecticut federal judge finally barred him from filing any more federal lawsuits without permission. The judge said Mr. Martin has pursued legal actions with 'persistence, viciousness, and general disregard for decency and logic.'"

In a New York bankruptcy case, he referred to a judge as a "crooked, slimy Jew." During the bankruptcy dispute, he filed a civil-rights lawsuit claiming Jewish bankruptcy judges and lawyers were conspiring to steal his property. He asked a court to bar "any Jew from having anything to do with plaintiff's property."

In another motion in the case, he wrote: "I am able to understand how the Holocaust took place, and with every passing day feel less and less sorry that it did, when Jew survivors are operating as a wolf pack to steal my property."

It seems that there is no depth to which Fox News won't sink to aid their Republican allies.  

Between this and Sarah Palin's praise for a minister after she listened to him pray for Christian men and women to wrest control of business and banks from "the Israelites," it seems that McCain and Palin will have the anti-Semitic, hate-monger vote locked down.
