Zirkle rails against the ‘great porn dragon’ and its influence over Jews.»

Tony Zirkle, a GOP congressional candidate in Indiana, recently came under heavy criticism for speaking to the American National Socialist Workers Party (ANSWP) on the 119th anniversary of Adolf Hitler’s birth. At the event, Zirkle “stood in front of a painting of Hitler, next to people wearing swastika armbands and with a swastika flag in the background.” On his website, Zirkle has responded to the criticisms by railing against Jews and prostitution:

tz.gif I’ve been getting a flood of e-mails and phone calls, some of which include death threats, about my attempt to raise awareness of how the great porn dragon inspires Jews into pornography and prostitution and then, like the snake he is, turns the public against the Jews. Some have questioned whether there is any link to Jews and porn-prostitution. […]

Unfortunately, those Web sites are just a small fraction of evidence you can find on a Google search of combinations of “Jews” “pornography” “sex slavery” “Israel” and “prostitution.” Let’s save our Jewish brothers and sisters from this tyrant king porn dragon before we get to another world-wide pogrom.

According to the Michigan City, Indiana News-Dispatch, the “effect of pornography and prostitution on young, white women and girls” was also the subject of Zirkle’s speech at the ANSWP event. (HT: Wonkette)

    mmm…porn dragons. num num.


  2. miatch Says:

    Today McCain pointed out to his blogging fans that Obama is Hamas’s choice for president.

    Who will point out that McCain is THE KKK and NAZI Party choice for president?


  3. Leporello Says:

    Its amazingly sad when, in the 21st century, there are so many people who blame the Jews for everything. Its So much worse when a man who obviously needs help very badly, is delusional enough to believe he can be elected to Congress. Although considering the current state of Congress, maybe he’s not delusional enough.
    Impeach Cheney and Bush and Save the Constitution.
    Abu Ben Hussein Leporello!

    Marge Flanders: “We shouldn’t be talking about S-E-X in front of the C-H-I-L-D-R-E-N.”
    Krusty the Klown: “Sex Cauldron? I thought they shut that place down!”

    Once again, GOP politics imitating “The Simpsons.”


  5. Nick307 Says:

    What the F*#% is a porn dragon?

    Is that a Chronicles of Narnia reference?


  6. L. Hussein Annie Says:

    Good grief. What a nutjob. No surprise that he’s a Repuke.


  7. WaltTheMan Says:

    I never realized that Larry Flint and Hugh Hefner are Jews.


  8. Anacher Forester Says:

    Well, that explains that. As for “porn dragon,” I think it featured prominently in The Hobbit.

  10. sectionop92 Says:

    Zirkle is either the most uneducated politician alive or he’s simply the most oblivious politician around. Either way, he’s an insult to anyone who can draw the obvious between insane Aryan totalitarian hate mongers and everyone else. Anyone who speaks at a podium in-front of a Hitler painting should be denounced outright and stripped of whatever “rights” they have to run for a public office. Screw any investigations into MLB steroid users on Capitol Hill…this guy deserves a special investigation of his own!


  11. RUCerious Says:

    Nevar, “on a mission from God!”…

    BTW, this guy is a one man Zircle Jerk.


  12. Chuck Feney Says:

    “effect of pornography and prostitution on young, white women and girls”

    Is this a reference to that Fundamentalist LDS church in Texas?


  13. freeman Says:

    WOW , no kidding ,the poster child for the republican of the 21st century ? This guy is representative of the 28% who still support Bush .


  14. crooksNliars Says:

    pron dragon…. Didn’t Falcor play that when he had trouble finding work after The Never Ending Story?


  15. fletc3her Says:

    Ahh, yes, right at home in the Republican party. They’re the big tent party. The party of Neo-Nazis, people who hate gays, who are against reproductive freedom, against marriage, against civil rights, against voting rights, against minorities, and of course televangelists and the oil companies.


  16. wright_god Says:

    You know Some of Obama’s Policy ideas mirror the American National Socialist Workers Party structure.


  17. freeman Says:

    Googled porn dragon and this..


  18. Bilbo Hussein Baggins Says:

    Wow, this guy is a real whack job. Perhaps we should introduce him to that congresswoman who mauled Bush at his last inauguration. I forget her name. But they would make a great pair, don’t you think?

    You obviously don’t understand the rules of blogging. It is not up to us to prove you wrong, it is up to you to prove you are right.

    Personally I would find it wonderful if we had a socialist running for President. I would vote for him/her in a hot minute. I would rather live in a country that honored it’s people, all it’s people, than one where the rich get richer and the poor get poorer.

    Not everybody who calls himself a “socialist” is someone you ought to admire, even if your politics are socialist (mine aren’t, just for the record). This guy identifies himself with neo-Nazis. Remember, the Nazi party called itself the National Socialists. Their agenda, I think we can all agree, wasn’t good for the people of Germany.

    In fairness to the Indiana GOP, they’ve repeatedly disinvited this kook from their gatherings–he’s a fringe candidate at best. I don’t doubt that some people will vote for him, but branding the whole GOP with this guy is like branding the Democrats with Lyndon LaRouche.


  23. kidcharles Says:

    Where are Jake and Elwood when you need them…

    I hate Indiana Nazis…


  24. Nevar Says:

    Zirkle, to leader of Indiana Nazis:

    “I’ve always loved you…”


  25. Little Freep Goofballs Says:

    What a Zirkle Jerk.


  26. Daddy Love Says:

    Who wants to bet that this guy has an absolutely world-class porn collection?


  27. misshusseinmolly Says:

    Just when I thought all nutcases were starting to sound same old, same old, along comes something fresh.

    This would be entertaining in its absurdity if it wasn’t so scary that people actually believe what this whackjob says.


  28. Nevar Says:

    I’m sure porn has a far greater influence on Indiana farm boys… how else would they ever know how to procreate with their own species?


  29. Little Freep Goofballs Says:

    Sorry RUCerious. Didn’t mean to step on your line at #12.

    Maybe he should change his last name to something a little less pun-ready, like — oh, I don’t know — Zyklon?


  30. LividLib Says:

    “tyrant king porn dragon”????

    does he live by the sea?


  31. Nevar Says:

    or zircon, as in “zircon encrusted tweezers…”

    tweezers… wait a minute, lemme sterilize ‘em, gimme your lighter…”

    Watch out! Zirkle is THE Central Scrutinizzzer!


  33. marlow Says:

    Mr. Zirkle openly and honstly represents the sentiments of Republicans. I thank him for his candor.


  34. Little Freep Goofballs Says:

    Watch out! Zirkle is THE Central Scrutinizzzer!

    Or Bobby Brownshirt!


  35. Buckie Boy Says:

    Tony Zirkle, a GOP congressional candidate in Indiana is proud to endorse McBush. Did McBush ask for this guys endorsement? I mean like, nut jobs have got to stick together.


  36. Nevar Says:

    “like a pink donation to the dragon in your dreams…
    ….give me, your dirty love….”

    (Who needs porn when you’ve got Zappa albums)


  37. galmud Says:

    ROFL please keep us informed on the latest news on this guy. He’s hilarious


  38. Little Freep Goofballs Says:

    Whip me up some dragon lotion
    For your Dirty Love
    Your Dirty Love


  39. Zooey Says:

    I’m guessing Zirkle has a porn addiction way beyond most porn addictions.


  40. Shayne Says:

    The GOP doesn’t endorse this guy, but they let him on the ballot. Just like McCain doesn’t want the NC GOP to air the Obama ad but he couldn’t be be bothered calling them about it.

    No, no, no. It’s a world-class research material collection.


  43. rastaman Says:

    BECAUSE IF THERE’S ANY GROUP THAT CARES ABOUT SAVING JEWISH WOMEN’S RIGHTS….IT’S THE NEO-NAZIs


  44. Razster Says:

    rastaman, Shhhh… That is what he’s trying to say in order to win. Once he is in it is Nazi-heaven and porn-dragon dreams!


  45. j swift Says:

    Zirkle, Hagee and McCain really need to be seen together, how sweet would that be….


  46. Lynn Lightfoot Says:

    I read some of Zirkle’s web site drivel to my husband. Who said, “I bet none of his neighbors ask to borrow his mower.”


  47. Green Eagle Says:

    God, I love the pictures. The combination of the portrait on the wall and the happy birthday banner is like something out of Jon Waters.

    How stupid does an American politician have to be to deliver a campaign speech in front of a portrait of Hitler? This incident is just spellbinding in its sheer over the top lunacy. I only wish Cheney, McCain, et. al. would be so upfront about where on the political spectrum they stand.


  48. stjack Says:

    i posted this on the other story about the zirkle-kkk, but i think it was below the fold by then.

    found these gems:

    there was also a link to an explanation of his Hvpvgpd middle name.


  49. Peter Principle Says:

    Tony Zirkle, a GOP congressional candidate in Indiana, recently came under heavy criticism for speaking to the American National Socialist Workers Party (ANSWP) on the 119th anniversary of Adolf Hitler’s birth.

    Well, he’s obviously a little bit to the right of the GOP mainstream — although maybe not the Republican House Caucus. But put :”Rev.” in front of his name and give him a large congregation and I’m sure McCain will be happy to have his endorsement.


  50. mauro7inf Says:

    The Jews are responsible for pornography. It’s true. I went to an Orthodox service yesterday, and the whole time they just kept talking about pornography and how they created it. But they were talking about this in Hebrew and chanting and stuff, and I would never associate myself with such a pig language, so I don’t know exactly what was said. But it went on for over half an hour of nothing but talking about how Jews are responsible for pornography.

    Or maybe they were praying or something. I wouldn’t know; it was all in Hebrew.

    But yeah, Zirkle’s right. Jews are responsible for pornography. But Zirkle should be more specific — Jews are only responsible for MALE pornography, which is intended for homosexual-agendist audiences. Gay people want to take over the world, and since the Jews have already taken over the world, the gays are allying with the Jews to more effectively control the rest of us, in gay-Zionist terms.

    Or maybe the gay people just want to be treated with respect. But I wouldn’t know because I don’t have the homosexual agenda on my RSS feed, since I don’t want to be tainted by their filth. So I’ll just have to make my assertions using no evidence.

    Zirkle for Congress ‘08!
