On Sunday, Tony Zirkle, a Republican candidate for Indiana's 2nd District, took time out from saving the economy by shredding vintage Playboys (of course!) so he could attend a 119th birthday celebration for Adolph Hitler. He claims he was only there to talk about his experience as a state's attorney in Indiana, his wacky theories about pornography, and to preach the gospel, so of course his being there had absolutely nothing to do with his segregation plan that would allow blacks to "have six states, so instead of having one half-black senator, well they would have 12."

Now it turns out that the the St. Joseph County Republican Party is trying to distance themselves from Zirkle. I wonder why?
