OK, that has been said by many, and they are of sketchy character at best. Now we have a congressional candidate who is pooping forth with this, and I do wish I was joking. I am not joking. The Daily Mail vomited this guy up Wednesday, February 29, 2012. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2108386/Blackest-lie-history-congressional-candidate-describes-Holocaust.html Arthur Jones, a Republican congressional candidate says the Holocaust never happened. People will shudder and think what the... This industrial strength stupid is just what is needed to drive voters away Mr. Jones. This is more than mere stupid however. This guy: 'organises Nazi events to celebrate Hitler's birthday'. 'The Holocaust is an international extortion racket' And despite of all the above stupid Arthur Jones has spent his life savings on his congressional run. He ran twice before without success.

Holocaust denial is something that has been known to pop up from time to time. But this takes it to an entirely new level, to absurdity. He either has to be the most insane person that ever did live, or he is an absolute genius for getting well known. If he hadn’t made such statements, would anyone know his name? I doubt so. Then again, he could believe everything that he says. I’m not really sure what is worst. Saying such things to get a rise, or living in such a level of delusion that you actually believe what you are saying. You can never tell really sometimes. Perhaps it is something that started as a rather twisted publicity stunt where the man in question got twisted around the bend. Then again, that is one of the most harsh wastes of money right ever in the history of everything and that is really saying anything, given some of the huge wastes of money there have been. That situation is just really screwy no matter how you cut it.

Oh...ew... just reading that turned my stomach. How stupid can people be? Or how deceived, maybe? Or... crazy? People like that belong in mental institutions.
