On the same day the anti-illegal immigration group Americans for Legal Immigration endorsed former Congressman J.D. Hayworth in his bid to unseat Senator John McCain as the GOP candidate for Senate, the McCain campaign is calling on Hayworth to disavow the endorsement.
"J.D. Hayworth's lavish praise for the social theories of noted anti-Semite and xenophobe Henry Ford sparked a major controversy during his losing 2006 campaign, causing many Arizonans to question Mr. Hayworth's judgment. It is astounding that Mr. Hayworth would today accept the endorsement of a group that the Anti-Defamation League reports is backed by white supremacists, neo-Nazis and anti-Semites. Mr. Hayworth should immediately disavow this group's support," says Brian Rogers, the McCain campaign's Communications Director.
Hayworth has already accepted the endorsements of Sheriff Joe Arpaio and Minutemen co-founder Chris Simcox, so what's a few more human-rights hooligans, right?

McCain deserves a dose of Rico!
Pissant is there a Dump McCain mailist on FR.
I’d love to see AZ Dump this Tool!
Not that I’m aware of.
“I dont mind McCain playing hardball politics against Hayworth, but why was he such damned wimp when he was running against Obama???
I have no dog in this fight, dont care which of these two wins the Senate seat.”
Oh yes you do have a dog in this fight. You are for John McCain, and you postings since your 2-13-2010 birth date prove it.
The anti-defamation league is a far left group. I don’t see why their opinion matters. McCain is making a mistake. If he runs this kind of campaign he may very well lose.
For cryin’ out f**king loud ya’d think the media would get it right! It’s not an ‘’anti-immigrant group’’ it’s an “ANTI-ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION GROUP””!!!
Just, wow—
Juan’s gonna tap into the N0Bama Thug way of running his campaign and play dirty.
It has been said that you can tell more about a politician by his supporters. McCain has plenty of progressive/socialist supporters. Nuff said!
What Juan is doing is this: Every time JD gets an endorsement, Juan digs up dirt on or smears that group, then demands JD renounce them. This is a way of eroding support for JD through attrition - first this group (birthers), then that group (people who are against illegal alien invasion), and so on. Either JD disassociates himself from the group and loses their support, or he’s depicted as a supporter of the group (nut case birther or mean-spirited hater) Juan just smeared.
He’s attacking JD through JD’s supporters. The media is now his friend again (Juan isn’t carrying a grudge against them, apparently, at least not at this time when he needs them) and Juan has no qualms about using commie organizations like the ADL, JDL, NAACP and SPLC as info sources against JD’s supporters. Next thing Juan will probably whip out is Janet Incompetano’s militia report warning to be wary of veterans because they might be domestic terrorists.
ughh
Thank you for something, mcdork.
I’ll def. donate to anyone that is anti-alien invasions.
How can I vote for Hayworth? I don’t even live in Arizona. I don’t intend to contribute money to either candidate or make phone calls. So please don’t get your underwear all in a knot.
It looks like the Navy couldn't afford keeping this guy around either! ;-)
Exactly. It didn’t occur to McCain to fight half this hard against Obama. But since Hayworth is going after “his” seat now, McCain is fighting as if it really were personal.
Foxman is also a Christian hater.
That McCain was fighting knowing he held power and seniority. Win or lose. Even so, he nearly pulled it out. But when the economy imploded, he suspended his campaign to run back to Washington to make a bad situation even worse.
That’s not surprising. Probably nursing an age-old grudge against (now-largely moribund) Christian Europeans.
